I was recently a guest on AnimeTV on internet television network Revision3 and the episode is up now! I was interviewed by one of their hosts, Kaiji Tang and he had some interesting questions about the SF4 scene. Then I play a match with the voice of Ryu himself, Kyle Hebert. That was fun lol.
It was a lot of fun and a pretty big deal for me personally because I’ve been watching shows on Rev3 since the early episodes of Diggnation. So check it out, my segment starts at 7:05.
MLG co-founder Sundance is asking for your support to get SSF4 into the Pro Circuit. A lot of people are not fond of MLG for reasons that sometimes make sense but usually don’t. I’ve had several lengthy conversations with Sundance and can see that SSF4 in MLG makes things bigger for everyone.
SF4 in MLG will mean more prize money for players which means more players that play full-time and that means better competition overall. So you can say what you want about them, but the fact of the matter is that money talks and increases competition.

Hey guys, bad news. Unfortunately, due to TheStream.tv losing it’s sponsorship, they have put their productions (including ours) on hold indefinitely until things are sorted out. I’m not one to do things just for the sake of doing them and have considered other venues, but I feel it’s better to not make any hasty decisions and just wait and see how things out. Just like when someone lands an Ultra on you and you’re close to death, you don’t mash Uppercut on wakeup just because they’re close to you.
So sit tight, there’s lots of stuff on the backburner and I apologize if you were really looking forward to Saturday as I was. Thanks to everyone who has been supportive, this really came out of nowhere, but it’s nice to see that people were as disappointed as I am about this turn of events.
