Sweet Will!  I love these games

(except when they get into grapple moves which make them look like they are spooning  )  Though it's funny as hell when your drunk!

Fuck spectating, come to the comp instead!

Seriously though, I'm not sure if you can

[fluxcore]

You can spectate the finals for sure, the other bits really depend on the layout of the areas. I imagine you'll be able to watch the SFIV matches... they'll probably be on the Saturday.
Finals for everything should be on the sunday.

I don't think you can enter the 'gaming areas' for free though, although you could peer into them (woo!)

[massi4h]

Na you probably won't be able to spectate. Only stage matches. It does depend on the setup though. Last year all matches for GHWT and VF5 were spectatable cause there was a tournament Xbox in the main area and that's where all the matches took place (not on people's own Xboxes). SFIV would probably be like that this year but I'm not certain.

Whatever you wanna spectate if it's open it's free. But you have to pay to get in the gaming area.

Yes they do need to own the game.... everyone MUST supply proof they own the game for the tournament they participating in our event. Regardless if we supply the title/unit the tournament is played on. It not guaranteed that we will have a separate unit/s as we are still in negotiations with MS.

So I think all us guys entering the vf5 tourney wont be able to play as I know I aint buying that game just so I can mash the buttons at the xlan tounry .
What about crazykiller (hue) as he doesnt even own a console let alone the game !
Now I cant enter gears 2 or halo 3 as Ive sold those games so I cant enetr those tourneys either .
Or have I got this completely wrong ?

[fluxcore]

I'm sure it'll work out somehow, although gears/halo would be trickier since you use multiple consoles...
