The way I see it, it may be one of the most brutal insane ways to lose a game, but the fact that it basically Kickstarted a whole generation of people wanting to be apart of the FGC has got to be pretty cool as well.
Why would he want to escape it? Most of y’all in the comment section couldn’t even make Daigo sweat, let alone push him to the absolute limit. There’s no “shame” in losing to anyone at this level, let alone Daigo. And if you are going to be rembered for a loss, It may well be moment 37. Then again this man will be remebered for what he accomplished. That and his cyclops comeback. He shouldn’t want to escape it at all my dude.
@@tanzolo4487 Being Intelligent sucks huh? You get this deep understanding of everything, whilst everyone else has fun with their shallow perceptions. Great Comment!
Speaking from being in JP right now, They still have those USB compatible Cabinets. 3rd strike tourneys are often. Wouldnt be surprised if they ship a bunch overseas just for the event. You also gotta realize, they had SFV cabinets, and not a bit ago, they released SF6 cabinets too. Those are also USB compatible. I plug in a PS5 controller cause thats what Im used to, but its fun as heck. That Game Card ranking subcommunity is alive and well. Im competing at Evo Japan this year, so I guess Ill check it out in person, since theyre also doing 3rd Strike at Evo Japan this year. im hype af.
0:50 😳 wait a minute is that Justin Wong, if he’s there does that mean that.... no, not happening. Not possible. Theme of SFIII 3rd strike play in BGM Max: “All aboard the hype train.” 27:20 “Let’s go Justin.” 28:17 The legendary parry begins
Combo Breaker usually runs 3rd Strike on superguns with USB adapters. Since Rick runs both CB and Evo, it's possible he will get those same or very similar setups for Evo.
EVO last year was so well organized, people were friendly, everything went smoothly and professionally. My only complaint was the lines for everything, most people overstayed their welcomes at demos, give people 30 min for their first of 3 and get the line moving. Hopefully they consolidate the lines and have more machines. I also would like a food stand of some kind? Leaving in and out of the con to eat was a hassle, basically once I enter I don’t want to leave until I have to lol. This year’s EVO is definitely going to be something special, I don’t know how they manage to top it year after year but they do. Get your tickets
I called every single game, just seeing the Evo Japan lineup I knew it was gonna be a 1:1 and then include MK1. And it's kind of fitting for 3rd Strike to be the Throwback this time around, because besides being 20 years since THAT moment, it will also be 25 years since it's original release.
Surprisingly a lot of 3rd strike characters aren’t half bad, and with parry you’ll probably see a lot more then You were expecting Maybe even a necro? I just wanna see makoto and Urien, and it would be so hype to get a yang
Funny, but it's like 4 months from now and by that time all the dlc characters would be out and hopefully NRS gets there shiz together.....again hopefully!
34:26 The cabs that you speak of is the Taito Vewlix F, L, & Diamond Blue series. However, the Vewlix Diamond Black, & Diamond Orange were the only ones with USB input specifically for SFV hardware. The re-releases of ST, 3rd Strike, Zero 3, & Vampire Savior during that time still had input delay. Not as bad as the collections or ports released for console past and present, but was still noticeable. These games were re-released on the Taito Type X2 Arcade Board.
LOL being on the receiving end of the most famous come from behind victory in the history of EVO has really made Justin so famous and will likely never be forgotten.
These first few years of the 2020's have been really exciting for the fgc. Like, there's so many new fighting game released back to back year after year.
Sajam actually loves chipotle and had a whole situation during his sponsorship where someone said “Chipotle doesn’t put this much guac on their bowls” when he posted his ad. This whole scenario was hilarious to me with this knowledge
It was my first evo last year and I met so many longtime online friends for the first time and content creators! Also did my very first Cammy cos 😂 Goes without saying a con based on fighting games is the coolest shit ever, come if you can. Having it be in July rather than August is really helpful too before classes resume. Def a good summer memory to have 😚
That's what I'm saying. Cloud and Sephiroth for GBVSR would be a slam dunk and no brainer. They both use swords so they would work with the theme of the game
20:00 The DLC for August is not revealed yet, so yeah they're gonna have some batchshit announcement then, though a lot of us are expecting Versusia due to the leaks, but some hopefuls still want Sandalphon since he's got a full model in the story mode.
Definitely in the future. I think they want to avoid repeat franchises in a row if they can help it. So MvC and SF is 'done' for now. The popular ones left is MK, Tekken, KoF/Garou and maybe Smash Bros. Its only a matter of time.
Max, thank you for not screaming at the screen upon MK1's announcement. I understand y'all still haven't received the Quan Chi underwear you purchased with your dragon cryatals, but it truly is a breath of fresh air to not see someone from the FGC freak out after being exposed to something MK related..
rip fighterz…maybe one day we’ll get that sequel 😔 Bamco is focused on T8 right now, so I wouldn’t expect it to be soon. Also Sparking Zero, my ass will be seated for third strike tho! And they end it off by teasing a SF3 character for SF6 👀 I can’t miss the live hype for when that happens
This year’s lineup is so heat! 😭😭😭 From MVC3 to Third Strike?! This is why EVO is the goat man like how do you top that🥹 Smash but Nintendo refused to play ball unfortunately Not surprised to see FighterZ it’s done, over with. The game needs a sequel or something. People looking at Sparking Zero and that’s more like a fighter you play with friends with, it’s a completely unbalanced series. Hopefully FighterZ 2 gets announced soon because DB games DO bring the hype. And hopefully Project L gets more info, it has to be at EVO at least next year? But idk they confirmed like 7 characters and they’re 100+ champions in LOL. We won’t get that much characters, but rolling out character trailers until release would be nice this year going into next. T8 is out now Project L should round out all the new fighting games, which demonstrates there’s so much options for a FGC fan. DNF DUEL tho 🤣 At this point the devs abandoned that game for their mobile game, they have a season pass to finish too which is crazy
I think they should make people sit at old school arcade cabs with no fight stick comparability. Just original hardware, Sanwa buttons and sticks, no mods. Best fighter wins.
The new generation really has no idea how boring it was for all of us to sit through third strike at evo year after year. It was famously the watch paint dry tournament, rivalled only by CvS2.
Having getten interested in Evo thanks to Tekken 7, looking at it's past, and where it is now, I think I can safely say that the Fighting Game Community is the best gaming community to be part of. ❤✊
Makes alot of sense for 3rd strike to come back considering EVO MOMENT 37 was 1 of the main things that put the FGC in the spotlight. Either way good choice.
