The beast is unleashed!

OP OP OP! (hindi gangnam style) Hindi bodybuilder to ah, vid lang to ng one of the best moments in pro-gaming history. Comeback win in the final round which gave it the title. gave me nerd chills lol.

excerpt from analysis by Seth Killian - Capcoms' community manager
That minute of game play has fascinated me for years. “Only around one percent of people who watch that video really know what’s going on,” Capcom’s Seth Killian told me during a recent chat about fighting games. Killian is Capcom’s community manager and fighting game enthusiast, and it’s his voice on that tape, breaking with excitement. In many ways this was like watching the Super Bowl with John Madden there in the room, giving you color commentary. So I had to ask him: what the hell happened in that clip?

The first thing to note is that this wasn’t the finals at EVO, nor was it the last match of the set. Justin Wong was one of the last strong American players left in the competition, and Umehara is certainly a well-known player, so the match was notable even if the stakes were relatively low. It’s the play itself that elevated this round to legendary status.

    Ang lupet! Naalala ko tuloy bigla yung Street Fighter playing days ko na panay ang takas ko sa bahay noong elementary ako para lang makapag arcade sa Paco Amusement! hahaha

    Masyadong na excite yung may gamit kay Chun Li samantalang ang ganda nung laro nya nung 1st round. Ang layo nung distance para bitawan nya yung super, pero may ganun move na pala sa version na yan sa mga luma kasi puro block lang. Ganda ng combo na binitawan nung Daigo to finish the game.

    Pa OT lang mga sir, boss acido hanggang anong tekken nalaro mo and anong card name mo? :) tekken player din ako although hindi sumasali sa tourneys. Hanggang team battles lang ako. :)
