Hadouken: I Got Next Documentary Now Available to Watch

Tonight at 5PM PST/8PM EST is the premiere of Ian Cofino’s I Got Next documentary about the fighting game scene. It’s going to be streamed on UFragTV and afterwards there will be a Q&A session with myself, Mike Ross, iloveu and Ian.

For those of you not familiar with I Got Next, here are Ian’s words:

I Got Next is a free documentary on the fighting video game scene created by Ian Cofino (with much support from my friends, professors, and family). It originally started as my senior project at Purchase College, School of Art and Design, and has grown into something much bigger thanks to the dedicated and passionate players in the community. Originally envisioned as a short documentary, I Got Next has grown into a feature length production, which will see two releases, a short cut in June and a longer cut in the winter of ‘09.

It features Justin Wong, Mike Ross, iloveu and myself, with appearances by familiar faces in the community such as dogface, James Chen, Ed Ma and Alex Valle. It follows some of the regional SF4 tournaments that we’ve been in this year such as Sinsation Fight Club and Final Round XII.

If you can’t catch the premiere live, you’ll be able to download it later for free in a few days from the I Got Next site.

Hadouken: Street Fighter 4 SBO ‘09 Qualifiers Results and Photos

Wow, what a weekend! The Street Fighter 4/3rd Strike SBO 2009 Qualifiers were held at Denjin Arcade and they were awesome! Congrats to the SF4 winners, Combofiend and Alex Valle, as well as the 3rd Strike winners Emphy, Rom and Ricky Ortiz! It was a ridiculously long day (10am-2am) but it was still a lot of fun. Slasher (from Live on 3 with djWHEAT) and I did live streaming video coverage of the event.
