I don't know how it works, but there is no multiplayer for just CE, they may give you a Reach disc when you purchase the anniversary, like they did with ODST, with the maps already on it. But either way it will be a Halo: Reach tournament, not Halo: CE.

There will be a prize package from Gamestop, and potentially additions from sponsors.

Halo - Timmy you are running the OKC version of this, and thus I've relied on your input.  I'd say at this point though, let's just clarify for those that might be waiting on our decision - Halo Reach FFA?

MvC - we'll need to find out if we'll have access to UMvC before we can state what we'll be doing.  Ask OKC, I'll check with Tulsa.

Short answer - yes.  If the event had more than one tournament, we'd limit you to just one or 2 depending on size / crew / etc - but yea, you can do both.

101 - we are already doing tournaments in Tulsa and OKC - no, I won't be able to get to Kansas that same night :)

Also, please do not post on another event's thread promoting your competing event - kinda frowned on :)  (plus, I understand getting excited but...  You have posted it in like 3 spots lol)

Just a quick note about this midnight is that the new Assassins Creed and Saints Row will be out as well. Bring a little extra to pick these great titles up where your here at Gamestop that night.

: Animefreak6969 November 08, 2011, 08:06:27 PM
so like for UMvC3 are we gonna be forced into using GS pads and if so is it going to be on 360? because if both of those are true, that will be total ♥♥♥♥, just saying.

If we can't bring anything then it better be ps3, if we can than i don't care.
