Distribution Methods

As I mentioned in the LA Riots I post, we are trying out different distribution models for LA Riots and this is an opportunity to try another one.  I found out yesterday that there is a 3 GB file size limit for all the torrents on MiniNova.  LA Riots II is 3.4 GB, putting it well over the limit.  Because of that, LA Riots is available to download in two forms: free via Bit Torrent and via direct download for $2.99. If you don’t want to download the whole thing, it’ll be on YouTube soon so sit tight.

Free Bit Torrent Download

As with LA Riots I, Bar Fights II and Arturo vs. Daigo: Match of 2009, LA Riots II is available for download via Bit Torrent for free.  Unfortunately, as I mentioned above, the file size limit is 3GB, so I had to split it into two torrents.
Download Part I
Download Part II

Direct Download

Also available for your convenience is a direct download option for $2.99, which means you:

  • don’t have to mess around with the downsides of Bit Torrent (firewalls, slow download speeds, BT clients)
  • get LA Riots II in one big file instead of having to wait to download it from two separate torrents
  • directly support LA Riots and help us cover our costs which will allow us to do future LA Riots events

Hadouken: LA Riots II Results & Wrap-Up

Unexpected results, great matches and plenty of surprises, LA Riots 2 was quite a show!  Here are the quick results:

  1. Alex Valle (Ryu)
  2. Shizza (Chun Li)
  3. Ken I (Rufus)
  4. Kai (El Fuerte)

Those players are invited back for LA Riots III which will be announced soon.

5. Combofiend
5. Keno
7. Yeb
7.  Jayce the Ace

These players are eliminated and won’t be in LA Riots III unless they make Top 4 at the next Bar Fights qualifying tournament which will be announced soon as well.  :)

Shizza had a great run, defeating Ken I in winners and losers bracket as well as LA Riots I winner Combofiend.  Combofiend was then eliminated by Kai’s El Fuerte, extracting some revenge for losing to Combofiend last time.

Jayce the Ace, who was a last minute addition, subbing in for Shady K, put on a good show but unfortunately went 2 and out against Combofiend and Ken I.  Yeb also went 2 and out, losing to Keno in winners.  Thanks to those guys for playing, better luck next time!

Wrap-Up Posts & Images

Please check out Xensin’s flickr for pictures and Coin-Op TV for their wrap-up.  Thank you to TheStream.tv for having us, Coin-Op TV for production assistance and interviews and Mad Catz for kindly providing stick prizes for the winners!  :)

Thank you to everyone who watched at home, our numbers were huge!  LA Riots III info coming soon!
