    Madden ’11 Tournament @ Play N Trade, August 21, 2010 – Korea

    I went down to the local Play N Trade that just opened up like a month ago for the first time today. It was a small little place that was about the size of the Kenaston EB, if not bigger. It is family owned by a Filipino family and they seemed really nice. Although I was talking to the kids and one employee. There was one older gentleman who kinda sat in the back looking all gruff, I’m assuming it is the father of the two kids there. Anyways, they came up to me asking if I played Madden. Now being a fighting game fan, I kindly told them I don’t, but I do play them fight games. The boy tells me that they are holding a Madden 2011 Tournament…

    That Summer Tournament 5 – August 14th and 15th @ Sci Lounge, UofM

    TST 5, what does it stand for? It stands for “That Summer Tournament”, the 5th one in the time we’ve been operating the scene in Winnipeg. This year is going to be one of the biggest tournaments that Winnipeg will see, with games such as Super Street Fighter IV, Tekken 6, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. With returns of old games like Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Capcom vs. SNK 2 (Really??!!). We’re also gonna feature a 2v2 Super Street Fighter IV teams tournament.

    Word on the street was that Saskatchewan was coming down to invade and potentially take our money away from us. Although, will Shane (ShinAkuma204) or BMike (KillaSasa/KillaBMike) allow this to take place? Will Graeme Howard (TheTimelyHoward) put a roadblock to those coming from the west? Will James Kim (Korea) take money from Saskatoon’s supposed best player? This and a province vs. province 5v5 will take place at TST5!

    Now there is also word of some Money Matches happening at TST5. One being the big grudge match between James Kim and Graeme Howard. They will feature a first to 7 match for $50, thus taking the title for Biggest Money Match in Chipdamage history. Another will be BMike taking challengers in old school games such as Killer Instinct and Fighter’s Destiny for the SNES and Nintendo 64, respectively. This will be one hell of an event.

    Evo questionaire

    Before they went off to compete the worlds biggest Fighting game tournament I asked the evo goers a few questions. Unfortunatly not everyone answered but here are the ones who did

    What games are you planning to enter? (Official or not)

    The Day is Finally Here, We Leave for Evo!!! – Korea

    So this is it. The day is finally here. We’ve waited a long time for this moment, a big group, heading out to Evolution 2010. I just want to say that I’m glad I’m going with you guys, and I’m glad my girlfriend agreed to come as well. I’m also glad to hear that Jayse is actually coming with us, but screwed up the hotel group numbers!

    This (Jul. 6 2010) morning we found out what pools we were in for the tournament. We pretty much have at least 2 other Canadians or another person from the city in our pools, as well as some very heavy hitters. For example, Tyler is in pool A, he has Daigo, John Choi, Mr. Wiz, LPN, UTJ, Keno, DS, Bustabust, Magus1234. I’m…
