Back with another episode! This time it’s Evo 2009 3rd Place finisher Ed Ma, one of SoCal’s finest players. He placed the highest out of everybody on the West Coast so props to him! Also, thanks to Miles Mosley and his crew for creating the awesome intro that you hear at the beginning. For those not aware, apparently there are a lot of established musicians out there that play Street Fighter 4 casually and keep up with the scene so shoutouts to those guys! Street Fighter 4 has friends in the best and most unexpected places.

Blu-RayDVD
Penny Arcade has posted another great comic. Go check out their site if you haven’t already today. Yes, you need to check it daily.
Chances are you already know how awesome BlazBlue is. IGN gave it a freaken 9.4. Many of you also know that King of Fighters XII just came out. Amazon has the best prices on it, so I’m going to give you a link for them below.
The real reason for this post is to let you know that I’ve been watching what everyone is saying about BlazBlue and KOF XII on fighting game forums, twitter, and facebook. Everyone loves these games, but it is essential to have a good fight stick to really experience them in the way they were meant to be played. If there are any of you playing BlazBlue, KOF XII, or Street Fighter IV without a fight stick…you have to get one. Ask any serious fighting game fan and they will tell you how essential they are.
There are many fighting sticks on the market. I’ve built a few from scratch as well as purchased a few over the shelf ones. The one I’m a fan of right now is the SF IV Tournament Stick from Mad Catz. The reviews for it are pretty solid.
I’ve also read good things about these HORI sticks (plus they are more affordable)
Here are some more sticks at Amazon and Play-Asia. Have fun!

Fresh off his 2nd Place finish at Evo 2009, Justin took the time to do a podcast with me and chat about his experience this past weekend. I actually asked everyone on Twitter for suggestions, so if you’re not following me, you might want to do so in case I crowdsource some questions again.
Topics covered include:
Stay tuned for the next episode of The Street Fighter Podcast where my guest is Ed Ma, who got 3rd at Evo!
