    Look's like it's that time of year again for our Celtic cousins to host their own version of a major! The venue will be the Thistle Hotel in Glasgow, same as it was last year for anyone who went.



    The game list is as follows, for those who didn't watch the trailer.
    Super Street Fighter 4: AE 2012
    Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
    Tekken Tag Tournament 2
    The King of Fighters XIII
    Street Fighter III: Third Strike OE (3v3)

    Rules and info can be found here:
    http://www.hypespotting.co.uk/?page_id=21

    You can also find some cheap-o hotels around the area browsing around the HS site, I'd recommend doing a bit of poking around.

    On a personal note, I am definitely going to this. I've already booked flights and a hostel in Edinburgh (I know, it's far, but I'm going with my GF and we're taking a holiday anyway lol).

    Flights are pretty cheap right now also, 89 Euro with Ryanair return for two.

    It might be a tad early to start gauging interest in this, but I might as well just get this thread up so people can decide if they want to go or not. I haven't been to HS, and I'm planning on attending more "majors" in the near future anyway, and since I can't go to Cannes, this is a pretty good deal for me.

    So who's up for it?

    I'll check to see if the dates don't clash with any college assignments and assessments, as well as the usual financial planning. Obviously will be going for TTT2, might do AE or 3rd Strike for the fun of it since I only just got back into SF.

    Planning on heading for KoF, will have to see if I can convince some other northern lads to go as well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 405 ✭✭Kuro Tao


    Just to remind people, this is only half a month away. If you wanna book, I'd advise doing so now.

    I'm not gonna head Kuro. I simply don't have enough character knowledge of TTT2 as of the moment. I could very easily go there and get blown up by a guy who uses characters I'm not familiar with. I'm gradually working my way through the cast though. If there's a stream for the TTT2 tournament, stick on a link and I'll probably watch it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 346 ✭✭jimmypenguin


    2 of us heading over from galway! bro lives there so heading over for the visit


  • Registered Users Posts: 160 ✭✭Nevflinn


    I didn't mention because I'm really rusty at the moment, but I came over to Hypespotting for the weekend.
    I kinda qualified for top 16, so I figured I'd come clean before anyone sees me tomorrow!

    P.S Kuro is a beast


  • Registered Users Posts: 405 ✭✭Kuro Tao


    Made it through to top 8 in Tekken, 7-0'd my bracket!

    Also Jimmy, I still have your 360 pad!


  • Registered Users Posts: 966 ✭✭✭Jun_DP101


    Nice one kuro! Gl with the rest


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_

    He was supposed to be playing Ryan a minute ago but it didn't happen....?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,762 ✭✭✭Yreval


    According to http://hs3.challonge.com/TTT2TOP8 he lost 2-0. He's now in losers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    Shoutouts to Ryan picking the green trousers on tulip stage, hide those leg movements.
