Make sure to frequently look at the Tournament Sub Forum as it will have the latest and up to date on the recent tournaments to come. I'll bump this thread when its near one of the tournaments above.

Lets show support and raise the view count on these streams, lets show them that MK has the best and supportive fans compared to other fighting games.
 
Also, the PDP tournament will be streaming on G4. I don't know if it is online or on their website, but they are streaming it.

My problem with PDP is that you are required to use a PDP stick. You can't use a controller or your own stick.

I was told EVO doesn't allow PS3 controllers for some reason. I don't know if they all the XBOX controller though.

EVO doesnt allow ps3 controllers for a good reason, you can read more here

As far as PDP requiring you to play their own product, well thats kind of a no brainer..they want to promote their product. With a prize pot that big no one should really be complaining about that.
 
Whos all going to the one in Chicago? Im just going to get some casuals in, since Psn is down, but im not going to be in the tournament.

Yeah, the PDP stick makes sense. And now that I read why EVO is not allowing PS3 controllers, it also makes sense.

Good luck to all TRMKers at any tournament. I'll be busy losing local tourneys.
 
There's a tournament in Sydney Australia, even though it's banned here? :/

The list below PDP is not just for MK. Theyre all seeding for EVO. EVO is like the superbowl of fighting games. Everyone all over the world comes for EVO.

Yeah that's not going to happen (for MK)...

I will be trying to get a scene going and setting up some tournaments in Sydney though. So far everyone that imported the game has received their copy, so I know there's a ton of players that would jump at the idea of some great offline matches. I'll let everyone know when I can get it happening.

Then its more like the World Cup, since the SuperBowl is only apart of the U.S. Lol

I'll be in the one that's in Milpitas, California. I probably won't win, but me and Jax always put on a show 8)
 
Interesting question... what happens if someone that doesnt know about the Johnny Cage X-Ray and accidentally uses it... are they disqualified? Its not that hard to do
