« WORLD CYBER GAMES VIRTUA FIGHTER 5 JAPANESE BRACKETS »

Browsing around the events section on VFDC I was reading up on the World Cyber Games and came across this blog post that shows the players and bracket list for WCG VF5 Japan. One thing that I think is really interesting is all the different titles these contenders hold. It just shows how much more active the VF community is in Japan compared to North America. Sure you have EVO Marvel champs, NEC Third Strike top placers, and even a thriving Tekken community, but VF5 really dosent hold the same sort of status in North America as these other games.

Now on a related note, as far as I know the USA is sending AdamYUKI to the grand finals for VF5 WCG after he qualified earlier this month in LA. Here are a couple (short) clips of him teaching me a few things about Virtua Fighter earlier in the year at a VF meet in SoCal. Now I will say I have progressed my game quite a bit since then, but I doubt the outcome would be much different if I ended up playing him today!
