    That's right its the time again! (But you already knew that from the title) get hype baby. We got an all encompassing SoCal 5v5 going down this Friday @ 9pm PST.

    That's right an entire tournament devoted to the 5v5 format gonna be friggan sweet! From the names/teams it looks like its gonna be all( ?) SoCal but hey who cares its gonna be good. I'd post whos going to be there but the list is so damn long your going to wanna just click the damn link (but you were going to that alright right?)

    What are these Specialist matches I keep hearing about? And what about these concept matches you can find on YouTube?

    No sir, I will not get hype. I have enough hype right now and I wouldn't want to be greedy by getting more.

    Seems like they'll be streaming both a game view and a player view, that's kinda neat. I will watch the game view on my TV while my laptop shows the player view, for the ultimate in streaming solutions. It will most probably feel as if I'm right there myself, assuming I'm even awake that early.
     
    Click here (game view) and here (player view) to finally get the much coveted hype, when the streaming begins.

    If you have enough hype left for another tournament, trusty website FADC is streaming the NE championship here. Chris Hu has been on the mic already, so should be good. Check player and game lists here
     
    This truly is the weekend of Street Fighter streaming. I shall name it Super Stream Fighter II Weekend Turbo.

    anybody see the end of this thing? I just had to stop and go to sleep at 2 am since the overall feel of that turned to casuals with no hype.

    I wonder how the picture and audio quality was soo good. I'm guessing it's because when I watched there was only around 1.5k people watching the stream. Some others with 20+k views the stream looked like shit and pretty much unwatchable.

    @Scooper: It's more to do with the internet at locations. Streams are generally bad quality also, to accommodate people with slower internet. But in the streams showing yesterday (especially the gootecks one) the bitrate was amazing and ran great.
