Keeping on top of tournaments for major fighting games can sometimes be a daunting task, especially for titles only available in Japan. Such is the case for Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-…well, was the case, rather, because one immensely gracious member of the community took it upon himself to rectify that problem.
Doug, also known as keeponrockin, is a member of the Northern Calgary scene who recently launched the aptly named Keep On Rockin’, a website that gathers tournament footage and organizes it for easy browsing. This allows players to search for matches based on a number of categories, including the date it was uploaded, the title, the competitors who took part, and the characters that were used.
Even cooler, videos that include multiple matches are automatically timestamped to the appropriate spot in the footage, a step that increases the ease of use even further.
The website organizer has mentioned in previous tweets that all this work, apart from the timing, is done by hand, making this a huge labor of love that should definitely help out much of the community. We salute you, keeponrockin!
