I'd like to see some console competitions.

Check out the Evolution series for fighting games. Probably not the sort of games you're looking for, but for Street Fighter, Tekken, Soul Calibur, Guilty Gear and Virtua Fighter it don't get no better in the U.S. Most of the games take place on consoles.

You know there are DoA and Halo 2 competitions in the WCG [joystiq.com], right?

DOA

This kid from my town, Jim Clifford, is playing DOA there. Apparently they picked him up in a limo and drove him the 45 mins to NYC for the qualifiers. I'm pretty jealous, but I can outscore him often enough when we team up in Halo... That counts for something, right?


...right?

He goes by the name NefariousSage if anyone wants to check out his profile. Anyway, he's the only USA representative for DOA so I guess GO JIM!
