I was watching the podcast and await for each game that MrWizard will reveal.
It wasn't a surprise that Street Fighter and MVC3 will be in since it had the most cheers and roars from last year's EVO. I remember shouting in front of my monitor when Daigo dodge X-factor Phoenix on MVC3 and seeing Daigo losing to Poongko on Street Fighter.
That's Evo!
So MrWizard announced EVO is adding Soul Calibur 5. Oh Snap! But I guess it was pretty ok to see some Soul Calibur action this year for EVO. Mortal Kombat 9 made it again. Last year it had pretty decent matches so I guess EVO decided to give it another chance.
When MrWizard said "Everyone would have played this once in their life-time", I knew what I was going expect! King Of Fighter 13 for EVO!!! Since KoF13 got back their justice from the embarrassing KOF12's downfall. Good to go back in old school Fighting games style. I will expect a influx of Mexicans going to EVO this year.
Lastly MrWizard announced that EVO will be adding Street Fighter xTekken, the chat in the podcast just spammed like mad with a lot of unhappy comments. Yes Majority were unhappy comments. I barely see anyone going "Yay! SFxTK!" or "FUUUUU YEEEAAAHH"

When MrWizard and Keits discussing about SFxTK, I can't help but notice they gave more negative comments to the game system. Pretty much funny to me why would you want to risk a space for a game that everyone is expecting it to Fail. But MrWizard said "The game isn't release, but we'll just give SFxTK a shot"
So they announced the lineup. They answered some question. Here are the good questions I remember was given to MrWizard to answer.
"Why Blazblue is not in for this year's EVO?"
MrWizard: Gauging from last year's EVO. The community is not as strong as we expected. There's fans but not alot of good supports.
Zenith (thoughts): I think there's more Asian players compare to States. So might be the result of it getting removed.
"Any chance if any game in the lineup get pulled out?"
MrWizard: We try to prevent that because it will take a lot of time and effort to return back refunds when they expected it in.
Zenith (thoughts): hahaha! Alot of people wants SFxTK get removed!

Well that's all I remember. So this year's EVO is going to be interesting! Controversy or not. I expect the same epic drive from all Players.
