not trying to sound like an ass or a jerk, but are you guys basing the trip to Evo if the game is being showed off on a big projector screen only? Or are you going regardless of the fact that the game may not make the main lineup? I guess what I'm asking is, would you guys go if there is only a side tourney with a possible 40+ people playing it?

I would go regardless.  Being on the big screen imo is a small part of the fun, excitement and the overall benefits of being at evo.  On top of that, people from toronto won't be able to touch the game until the console release, so maybe it's better we (as in T.O peeps) don't get to be on the big screen :P

With that aside, I think that people who wouldn't go unless it's on the big screen should keep in mind that building the scene should be part of your plans also, and that applies to all of us really.  If we can build a big enough scene, being on the big screen will become a given.

As long as there's some kind of tournament for 13 i'd probably go :P

What has changed so much about Takuma aside from his EX bug to explain why he hardly gets any use now?

Good advice, but can you and other experienced players make a chart or something along those lines putting the whole cast in 3 categories:

point
2nd
anchor (something along those lines)

please and thank you!

Has anybody else noticed that Takuma has become very in these videos now? I know he lost his EX bug, but is there that big of a difference where people dont want to play him anymore? and did anybody notice in that latest video that goro tried to do his ground pound move and lost ALL his meter?

From what I understand, certain characters dont appear in games anymore because they die off or something?  regardless, I would love to see these DLC characters:

yashiro, chris and shermie (ESPECIALLY their orochi versions)
vanessa
blue mary
rock
geese
yamazaki
heavy d
billy
shingo (just because :P)

I'll update this if I think of anything else

Ps3, but if the netcode is really good and there are good players to practice against, I would honestly pick up a 360 to practice.  I, along with many other people, want to get really good at this game.

Agreed, if 13 is there, I will be too along with a couple buddies from the T.O scene.  Canada supports this game too!!

I think the KOF series predominantly being a team game is one of the many things that makes it a unique and great series.  

For the ratio system, are the max amoun of points 6 or 5?

I agree with the hush hush policy.  If somebody who's new to the scene/doesn't handle losing very well goes to an arcade and gets bodied for an hour straight, they will probably get discouraged or get into the mindset that they will only play when X player isn't there/playing. 

I think that with those situations, if you see somebody that you think is new, ask if they've played before and offer to teach them and whatnot.  That way, you show that you are willing to accept people into the community/teach people.  On top of that, you will most likely make a new friend

I agree, I think the main points here are that they care and are making moves in the right direction.  The more we show support for the game, the more we will get in return.

What can Takuma combo off of cr. without meter?

As a Takuma player, I purposely left that out :P

Sorry, I meant his infinite EX bar bug on his ground pound move.
