just remember we have 7 tournaments…. mike if you want to run the whole friggin lan on ps3 controllers all the power to ya, but we split consoles to make things go faster.
Im not tryn to run the whole LAN on PS3 controllers, all Ive been tryn to say the whole time is that it would take more time to run the tournaments over two consoles if there are a lot of people who disagree on what system they want to play it on. Say two people are fighting and one loses the coin toss to a PS3 Street Fighter IV player. Ok so, they play on the PS3 and the 360 guy loses to him and now he wants to play on the 360. Well I would assume that, since Soul Calibur IV and Street Fighter are going to be running on both systems, it would be full and these two people would have to wait to continue thier fight on the 360. All I am trying to say is that it would probably run a little faster if you ran the tournaments on one of either systems. Dont you remember the last LAN where Soul Calibur and Gears of War was running side by side and the Gears players got upset because they had to wait on the Soul Calibur guys to finish? Well I think this would happen again during this LAN but it would be even worse because you are using both systems to run 2 tournaments that are running back to back so, no matter what every system will be running. If you guys think you can run them both multiplatform, go for it, but I just think this will present problems, and I figured I’d bring it up. And again, I say the PS3 is better for fighting games, well because it is, just like the 360 is better for shooting games because it is more comfortable. Would you want to play Gears of War II with a PS3 controller? No no lol.
And yes, I know people will *edited* Audyo, it seems to be a natural thing to some people on these forums lol. But I would honestly rather have people *edited*ing on the forums than at the LAN because they had to wait to finish thier matches because they kept having to switch systems. If you guys, and by you guys I mean ALL of the executives for consoles, decide on something concrete concerning this problem, we will vote on it at the next meeting or over IRC (probably IRC).
