    8-year old Noah Solis will take on one of the strongest Japanese players in Mago at Super Street Fighter IV.

    EDIT: Noah is 9 now.

    T-minus one hour till more Playstation Battle Royal... I'm guessing that Seth will trot out and announce a few new characters (hopefully not something like Ryu)

    My pick before the tournament was Infiltration. Based on what I've seen so far I'd say Haitani is definitely a threat.

    I was pretty burned out on SFIV last year, partly due to MvC3, but I'm back to being hype as fuck. AE has really grown into a diverse playing environment. Best weekend evar!

    @MethodMan008: Oh I just meant SF, but OK then.

    SF: Infiltration.

    Marvel: F. Champ.

    ST: Daigo.

    MK: Reo.

    You're probably right about KOF and SFxT. I only know one SC player and I think he's out.

    Edit: We miseed Daigo, Latif because of the Playstation All Stars nonsense. You have got to be kidding me.

    Parappa stage is mashed up with Metal Gear so... Solid Snake confirmed?

    But yeah, this game is not looking the prettiest. Still, there are 3 months left of dev time. Maybe they can sharpen it up a bit.

    Yeah it's pretty annoying, this game doesn't even look remotely good. Also why is Big Daddy in this? BioShock was a 360 exclusive at one point and in no way is it an iconic Sony character...

    Just lame. They surely paid money for the time to promote this thing.

    @StarvingGamer: That wasn't a Metal Gear mech, so he's accidentally confirmed Metal Gear involvement ahead of time.

    Guy on stream said it was a giant metal gear in the background, but it was that mech thing from Killzone 3.

    Seems interesting, but not a huge fan of only super meter for kills.
