UMD Smash Fills the Project M Broadcast Void at Xanadu Weekly

VGBootCamp, arguably the largest broadcaster in the Smash scene these days, made it clear last week that they were no longer going to support the burgeoning Project M community. As a mod of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the title has long occupied a very weird gray area in terms of legality and, it was assumed, this move was to avoid any actions Nintendo may take in the future.

Fortunately, all is not lost. A group hailing from the University of Maryland recently stepped up to fill the space left by VGBC’s departure, giving the folks at the weekly Xanadu meetups an outlet for their competitive footage.

While these events typically took place on Tuesdays, the tournaments will now be held on Mondays in order to give the title its very own night. If you’re interested in checking out what Project M has to offer, be sure to tune in below or head on over to Twitch.

Today is the Last Day to Grab Free PlayStation Plus Colors for Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-‘s Cast

ggxrd-bonuscolors-psn-622-crop

Apart from how you play, the colors you choose for your main help set you apart from the dozens of other competitors who use the same character. More and more, developers are starting to provide players with a variety of palettes to choose from, and in some cases we’re provided ways to customize cast members even more than the creators envisioned.

Hell, the results of the marquee exhibition at Apex 2015 between Leffen and Liquid’s Chillin hinged on which player would be able to use Fox’s main colors in Super Smash Bros. Melee in addition to whatever monetary rewards they had put on the table.

If you don’t want to miss out on an extra color palette in Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-, today is your last day to grab a nifty black and blue pattern free of charge. While the downloadable content extends to every cast member, there is a catch in that you’ll need to have an active PlayStation Plus subscription to add these colors to your game. (Editor’s note: This article originally stated that additional characters Sin Kiske, Elphelt Valentine, and Leo Whitefang were necessary to access this content as well, but that was a mistake. We apologize for the error.)

These colors are available on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, so be sure to follow their respective links before it’s too late.
