Shadowloo Showdown tournament returns Down Under in 2011
Fighting game tournament returns to Melbourne at the end of June; Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Tekken 6, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike featured.
Aussie fighting game site Shadowloo is bringing its Shadowloo Showdown fighting game tournament back for 2011, taking over Melbourne on June 25 and 26.
The two-day tournament will take place at CQ Hotel in the Melbourne CBD and will feature titles like Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition (main event), Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (the title's debut at a Shadowloo event), Tekken 6, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike (Arcade), and BlazBlue: Continuum Shift II.
The tournament will play host to international fighting game talent, like Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition reigning champion Gamerbee (Taiwan); former Sydneysider Humanbomb (Hong Kong); and Melbourne's very own Toxy, who matched it with legend Daigo in last year's EVO APAC tournament.
For those not in it to win it, the event will also feature casual tournaments for gamers of all skill levels. Shadowloo Showdown 2011 will be held on June 25 and 26 in the events room at the CQ Melbourne, 113 Queen St, Melbourne, Victoria.
The event will also be streamed live on this channel. For more information, visit the Shadowloo website.
