Hilarious Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike Video

[Lord Contaminous]

Has anyone ever come up on live tournament matches where this happens? I always wanted to be in a crowd that does that. I crack up at this video everytime I see it, as well as the Evolution 2003 DVD where this happens way too much.

Sorry I'm missing something what's so special about this clip?

[Lord Contaminous]

It's the crowd. They like to shout "HEY!" on every hit of a huge combo.

It glorifies the winnerr...

and embarasses the loser.

Never noticed anyone doing this at arcade I've been to but they were mostly dead anyways. I don't really understand why you'd want to see a arcade tourny anyway. Gimme some old fashion FOOTBALL!!!

Arcade tourneys with good players are easily the match for football in terms of tactics, mindgames, and skill.

I dont know, do tourny playes have end zone dances too? But I've never found watching a video competition anyfun. Most if not all that I've seen have been too one sided. I don't really care "competition when there isn't any.

Wow, someone else here besides me and uber has seen this. Nice job Richter.

It's pretty funny how the crowd goes insane because they wanted to see Justins turtle style Chun lose.

Nez:

Yes, the arcades are dead in America. But not in Japan, where the movie in the first link was shot from. But tourneys are just fun like Ubersaurus said. Whether it'd be console or arcade.

That Daigo/Justin Wong thing was insane, being able to parry Chun Li's super that fast is like walking through a hail of needles and coming out unscratched! Geez I have never heard the crowd roar that loud before!!!

[-hellvin-]

Hehe, funny clip. I liked the one starcraft clip tournament I have. There is this bad ass korean with these shades and some uber future looking suit on and he beats DOWN the other guy. When he starts taking out his opponents base the announcers start to FUCKING SCREAM.

OHASHALKJAK!!!!!!!!!!

LoL. They get so excited. There was even a crowd watching the tournament with little party wavers and balloons and shit. Why do they love starcraft so much? They even have the damn characters on bags of CHIPS.....crazy korea.

[Lord Contaminous]

Hahah can you post that Starcraft clip? Ever since I saw the "HEY! HEY! HEEEYYYY!!!" 3rd Strike clips in various videos, I'm starting to dig crowd reactions to big stuff players do.

[captain nintendo]

Cool stuff.

Back in the late 80's and early 90's I would go anywhere in state to play in Cyberball tournaments ! Video games and futuristic football all rolled into one.

Oh yes and I owned anybody I played.


Hey Nez I love the avatar

[kainemaxwell]

Sure give me a minute to look it up and I'll edit it into this post.

JEEZ, that was tough to find again. Looks like it works! It's kinda boring throughout but fast foward towards the end where he rushes and the announcer's are pretty funny. The winner is also hilarious. He just wins, and wins with style.

Crazy Koreans

Absolutely one of the best SF clips I have ever seen.

Agreed. Holy crap. How many parries were there? Then to have the presence of mind for the air block the last hit to setup his own combo-into-super for the win? Dear gods...

Well that justin wong one was interesting, but like it says I guess I had to be there. I liked it better then the other becouse Wong, or who ever, was countering rather then wining by a super attack that wasn't blocked right.

Hellvins vid is pretty good, but thats just becouse the announcer is freaking out.

Thanks Captain, one of the best shows ever, and longest running. Sadly no one outside of Arizona knows who the these people are.

[GrayFox]

Ok, that Diago clip is absolutely insane.

How the hell did he parry that entire attack, that just blows me away.

*plays clip again*
