Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land The local competitive fighting scene in Australia is a burgeoning beast, and we tend to punch above our weight as a result. Part of that is thanks to events like Shadowloo Showdown. The announcement trailer for Shadowloo Showdown 2012 has just been released and it’s, for want of a far less played out word, epic.
Shadowloo Showdown is Australia’s premier Street Fighter tournament, and it’s about to move into 2011 with Shadowloo Showdown 2k11. This year’s event will feature not only the best players from Australia, but some of the best from the global scene. If you have any interest in competitive gaming, this will be well worth your while.
When it comes to fighting games like Street Fighter IV, Australia has a great, burgeoning competitive scene and the announcement of Shadowloo Showdown is testament to this fact. Taking place this weekend, top Japanese players Mago (2D God) and Tokido (Murderface) will join Gamerbee from Taiwan in facing off against the best that Australia has to offer.
