OFFICIAL HYPE TRAILER:
 
Oh hell yeah! This tournament is going to be badass! I want everyone to be there.
 
i will definitly try to make this one. i should be in a stable situation and be able to travel by that point. Mortal Kombat, MvC3, and SC4? get hype!
 
SCIV has been added to the pre-registration list. Find it here. Soul Cal Tourney will begin Saturday, June 11th. That gives us Friday night to hold free-play and MM's.
 
for everyone planning on coming, i strongly suggest pre-registering as soon as you can. regristration prices go up the closer it gets to the tourney date.
 
This is going to be a great opportunity for you locals that haven't ever been to a major. Not only will you be able to play your favorite game in a major setting, you'll also get to witness, in real life, top players like Jwong doing what's made them famous. It's going to be quite an experience and I hope everyone I've met through the monthlies is able to come out to this. It will change your life! You won't regret it!
 
I'm going to try and make this. At this time however, to much is in the air to determine whether or not I can.

Fingers crossed!
 
If we going anywhere for SC, I'm sorry but it won't be to Orlando. Plane tickets down there are ridiculous! The cheapest one you can get is right around $500 and this like 6 months away! If people trying to travel down there from anywhere besides the EC they better order a ticket soon.
 
@Malice : Workin on it.. really want good comp.

@ greatone: Tickets through JetBlue to FL are relatively cheap.. I've traveled from Cali b4 on that airline. Price was around $210 round-trip. Plus there's so much to do here in Orlando!
 
So I got word, if you're into the SSF4 community, that Mike Ross and Gooteks are confirmed to be there.

Not only them, but I heard from the TO that Reuben Langdon, the Voice Actor of Ken in SF4 and Dante in Mvc3 and Devil May Cry, will be attending CEO 2011.

That's pretty sweet eh? COME!
 
Will pre-reg soon as I can. Barring anything stupid I will be there. Low tier represent!
 
Damn so only 3 1/2 months to really dig into Mk9 before this tournament, not quite enough time but should but should be prepared enough to enter. Sounds like a lot of hype for this one and its in Orlando definitely going to consider it.

@Enk- ROFL at signature
 
New Announcement: MadCatz will be sponsoring and supporting CEO 2011. They are setting up a booth and providing prizes!!

Stay tuned for more ...
 
I dun talked NamuSkull and Nemesis-Kanden into coming. Get hype! Planned on booking the hotel for 8-13. That rate is really great for what you get.
 
Nice! Good job, Mikosu! They all going to be staying with you? I may have to come invade your room for games!
 
If everything works out that's the plan. Please honor us with your presence :D You too Ray.
 
Lol, you're so funny. I guess you read my "Hi" thread? In this case it is I who would be honored by your presence. I'll bring my lil HD DV cam to record our shenanigans.
