''I don’t normally like the whole competitive gaming deal. It serves a purpose and it has a following, but I just don’t enjoy it. That was until I watched this year’s EVO . I don’t follower the players, I don’t know who the big names are and who the fan favourites are. What I do know is I enjoyed watching the coverage over on Twitch TV.
The way in which EVO is played reminds me of the good old days of the arcades; huddled around a cabinet watching people take each other on across a number of fighters was awesome to watch. EVO replicates those experiences on a much larger scale.
The various games played offer vastly different play styles and players resulting in a nice variety to the event. Watching the insanity of some of the combos being pulled off was brilliant to watch. The clashes of styles and character selection made each match different.''
