Let us know your thoughts on this year's games in the comment section below.
Well this wasn't expected >_> Oh well, looking forward to the AE and Marvel EVO action.
Wow are u serious? sfxt? and No KOF13? im not even a KOF player and i will admit KOF had the hypest finals out of all the games....then marvel 2nd of course... e-sports eh?
I'm happy. AE and KOF is all I needed with a lil UMVC3.
kof is lower cuase to many peopple stoped playing kof even madkof sais he would retire since no one play kof in korea, not saying the game is bad i love the game too but thats the truth
can't wait to look forward watching AE2012, KOF and UMVC3.
Sorry, everyone who tried to kill it, SFxT is not dead.
Add "Players' Choice" Flip!
@ BMSage: MK is alive and well. They have a very active community on www.TestYourMight.com
You don't see it on main streams much because they have their own channels.
Why in the hell would they ban gems in SFxT?
EDIT: I see where they're coming from. It would slow down the tournament.
Glad to see P4A make it into EVO,it really deserved it aswell as KOF and Tekken:D. Everything else was to be expected. Hoping for Melee to be make it as the player's choice, CvS2 aswell.

I don't think that poll was legit at all. Way to many ways to make multiple accounts and boost a certain game. I'm not saying that this could happen in the donation drive, but the chances are unlikely
After the blunder they are still allowing SFxT?
Come on, there are better games that deserve that spot than that crap. It wasn't received well and yet they still kept it.

I kinda expected to see Injustice before MK9, seeing as how the latter game is pretty much dead.
#32
Like what? Please don't say Skullgirls or VF, you'll only be setting yourself up for failure.
Glad to see all of my personal favorites, AE, UMvC3, SFxT, MK9 and TTT2. Was a little worried about SFxT with all the sh!t surrounding that title.
lets see if smash gets first again and if evo will actually put it in and if they will allow items but ban gems.
@31 don't let the online deter you from playing KOF XIII, its an amazing game
Surprised Persona 4 Arena is there, good game nonetheless. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 makes me cringe at how boring past Tekken finals have been, but i'll give it another chance. Sad DoA5 didnt make it since it would allow not just DoA players join but some VF5 players as well. Here's me hoping to Injustice or DoA5
Nice line-up. This year will be HYPE! All the SFxT haters are just gonna have to hold ALL of that salt!
Love it! I hope DoA5 makes it, too. :)
Sucks that they won't allow gems in SFxT, is like they don't get that the game SHOULD be played with them. Just limit them to the most basic ones and that's it.
After watching SFxT on the SF 25th Anniversary tournament, I'm pretty excited to see what's in store for the game at this years EVO.
Wizard said that the status on gems in SFxT *has not* been decided. Check the stream archive.

Considering that hardly anyone outside of Korea or Japan plays KOF, yeah, he should let the horrendous online deter him.
KoF and P4? Awesome! Hope Kof is as hype as last year. Looking forward to some memorable moments from P4.
Can't wait to see SFxT v2013 in a tourney setting.
Personally, I like to watch:
1. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
2. Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition v2012
3. Tekken Tag Tournament 2
5. Street Fighter X Tekken v2013 (just out of curiosity)
6. King of Fighters 13
I wish the last game to be in order of preference:
- DoA4
- Soul Calibur4
- GGXX/Blazeblue
PS: I will not watch any other game.
MK9 is horrible-- no updates, boring gameplay, boring players. At least a DOA5 showing would've shown something new, and at the very least bring in new meat to take the stage. Sick of seeing the same old faces winning DOA tourneys because they're the only ones who travel and play in that small clique of theirs.
"MK is garbage,it'll never be at evo again!"
Three years later...lol
Anyway, this line up looks pretty nice.Looks like their something for everybody.Im a little surprised SC didn't make the cut over a certain other game that i think shouldn't have been there, but thats their choice and good for them.Crossing my fingers DOA will take the 8th spot, but no big deal if doesn't thanks to IPL, so good luck to other candidates.
Well time to step up my P4A and TT2 game. :D
@59
That's kinda my thoughts. I love the animation. And story would be fun for a hot minute.... But if the game has no online community that kills it for me.
Online is the fighting games replayablity!
But man, I absolutely love Terry, Ryo, Takuma and Clark! Oh, and Mai:)
Who's the commentator who does the Arnold impressions when Clark slams ppl? That Sh!t is so Freaking GDLK! I lol'd so hard!
@59 lol, there are plenty of players in the states, wouldn't be at evo or one of the most requested games if it had hardly any players.
@70 yeah i understand you, online is always a factor especially since you need experience to be good at the game, but you gotta remember in KOF XIII you gotta spend a ridiculous amount of time in training mode. Its unlike any current gen 2D fighter out.
I dislike how you guys are talking about watching instead of going there and playing.
@Aluppoj #31
Don't be discouraged about online and I'm surprised that you didn't know about this, but you can always checkout the DreamCancel.com forums for matchmaking if you want to play with players with good connection.
oh that is NorCal's Hellpockets and his godlike commentating that you are asking about. =P
Kofxiii is becoming more of a spectator game than umvc3. Where were everyone after Evo2012?
Lol DOA community please don't let your game die. Inspector Chin works too hard.
Will the MK players complain about screens this year?
Tony Cannon @Pond3r
I am overjoyed to report that #MLP is currently leading the #evo2k BCRF Donation Drive. Good luck to everyone! #WSRK
It's going to happen.
It's not listed on the SRK page, but VF5FS has a donation page.
https://www.wepay.com/donations/evo20...
C'mon people, BELIEVE!
@94 Who the hell donated half a million towards MLP? 0.o
For those who are saying MK's community is dead, you're out of touch with reality. MK9 got over 100 people at NEC. MK9 has consistently gotten better numbers than KOF and Persona.
They are setting up for a larger chance to have timeouts by excluding gems in SFxT. This will only lead to more bad publicity and people judging aspects of the game for the wrong reasons. Pleasing the uninformed...SIGH
If MK got a spot again, KOF better have gotten one too. Glad to see it show up. Loving the lineup, also hoping for CvS2 or Guilty to nab that last spot.
