That little character trailer for SFxT was actually pretty cool and an over the top way of announcing a few more characters.

Did people play Darkstalkers? Those games really weren't that fun and I don't understand why people have boners for that series.

No sound here at work but I just watched the first round and hooooooly shit was that close. Thank God Dark Phoenix is OP and that he blew his X-Factor trying to do the Spider-Man shenanigan amirite?

EDIT: Yeah that was some shitty play in the other rounds. I'm sorry Riot. Don't fuck up at Evo.

You are lucky cuz Doom is probly gonna be high tier in Ultimate. I don't think I am gonna play phoenix at evo unless I lose bad with akuma first game and I've felt out my opponent and seen if he has a good anti phoenix team. I wanna play ultimate when im there I'm excited. Hopefully there's not a big line.

Doom is already high tier so the little buffs he gets is just icing on the Doom cake. I don't think you should wait in line because that will take like 2 hours out of your precious Vegas time and you're going to play a completed version of the game in 6 months anyway.

I kinda want to check out the buffet at Paris. They have fresh made-to-order crepes and creme brulee.

There is also a Todai in Vegas which is really baller. All you can eat sushi buffet? Hell yes.

You certainly want to go to a lot of buffets! Ho ho ho. I will go to one or two but I don't know if I really wanna do a bunch of all day buffets... I'd probably get filled up all day just eating there once, and I'd rather go to cheaper places for the most part. Food is a food is a food.

I won't buffet it up everyday either, but I couldn't disagree more about food is a food. Think outside the chicken tender.

EDIT: If you don't know what good food might be, eat lunch with Brian sometime. He know's what is what. [/dickride]

Guys I'm doing the 24 hour buffet pass once mayyyyybe twice if you guys just want to pull a Riot and eat Sbarro's all day. I got a Groupon for the Indian place so I'm going to get my curry on. I'd like to try out Burger Bar and this place as well at the Cosmopolitan.
