Xian's Gen was beastly.

[kofvscapcom]

Justin made like 3 solo Akuma comebacks, in Marvel, where akuma is not that great a character, especially solo. So yeah, that brought the hype, and the raise your wongers thing is indeed from league of legends streams. Once Tokido knocked out Infiltration the end result was pretty set, Xian has proven he can consistently beat Tokido. Just hope they do something good with the last Street fighter character and it's not something stupid like violent Ken. All in all, a good year, New York won Marvel, just not the person we expected. I have met both ChrisG and Flocker in person, they're pretty cool peoples and I'm glad it turned out the way it did.

Capcom posted some of the buffs for the new version of street fighter, very glad as T.Hawk gets significant buffs, in an interview Xian even said T.Hawk might become top tier.

that's a lot sooner than I thought

I can't get over that Gen play.  Tricky, mistake-free, and still some stylish shit like hit confirm super into ultra.  Like every other match!  It's too bad that Xian says he's retiring his Gen for Ultra. 

But even scarier than Xian; did anyone see the P4A top 8?  Yume's Aigis was terrifying!!! Way better than that of Xie.  The American players did better than I thought, but holy shit Yume.

Even the rest of the Japanese players that were at EVO didn't stand a chance against Yume.

the top 8 for p4as pretty telling, places 2-4 were american, americas not too far behind in that game

[Monsoon]

In the kumites that followed the tournament, a few of the non-Yume Japanese players won only about 50% of their games against American players (Die-chan was one of them, don't remember the others).  The best Kanji player I know won against Die-chan's Mitsuru.  But you're both right - the American P4A scene is pretty strong, except against Yume.  No Orgia? No problem.

Hey, new P4A2 (P-1 Climax) trailer: http://p-atlus.jp/p4u2/ (apologies if it's been posted elsewhere)

New character Sho seems like a villain.  My guess is that he's the human hacker working with the "mysterious entity" in the endings for P4A.  Two swords.  Could be fun.
