Alex Jebailey Promises $1,000 Pot Bonus to Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- at CEOtaku if It Reaches 200 Entrants

The majority of the pot bonuses we see today come from corporate sponsors–primarily from the game developers. While Atlus has already supplied a $1,000 pot bonus at CEOtaku for The King of Fighters XIV, and Degica has supplied a $250 pot bonus for Koihime Enbu, the Arc System Works titles on Alex Jebailey’s roster has been left out in Orlando’s balmy September weather.

Jebailey, however, aims to change that. He has thrown down the gauntlet to Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- players: offering a $1000 pot bonus supplied by himself, should the game break 200 players by September 26th. As of press time, the game currently has 156 players in the running for the event in Orlando that runs from September 30th to October 2nd.

With 13 days left, it looks likely that Guilty Gear will reach the 200 player mark. To help ensure the game gets the numbers to get its pot bonus, you should definitely point your browser to CEOtaku’s website to sign up for the event.

United Nations Soldiers Are Invading Street Fighter V’s Lair of the Four Kings in These CFN Profiles

If you’ve played a good amount of matches on the Lair of the Four Kings Stage in Street Fighter V, you’ve likely noticed some large mecha-resembling figures, running around in the background: some battling the ninja of the Kanzuki Zaibatsu, while others are tangling with High-Ranking Shadaloo Soldiers. Ever wonder just exactly who, or what, they are? It turns out that they’re a group of soldiers from the United Nations, and they’re the subject of our latest profiles from the CFN Portal site, as conveyed by Private Nakagawa’s Shadaloo Activity Report!

Private Nakagawa: This time, we speak of those fat @#&*%! that dared to invade and board our secret base, Lord Bison’s castle of Shadaloo. Those who restlessly run around in the Lair of the Four Kings.

Lord F.A.N.G, why don’t we make one, too?! A robot! Eh? “We don’t have the money…?”
