We are proud to announce that FINAL ROUND XV will be on March 2-4, 2012. The hype doesn't stop and we had to start extra early on planning for FR15. As of right now the



Major game roster for FRXV are as followed:

7. TekkenTagTournamentHD

10. Tekken6



The systems used will be PS3 for the time being. This may change if I get sponsorship from another source. Other games will be added to the list, but those are the core games that will be played at FR15 up to this moment. We have A LOT IN STORE for people that plan to attend FR15 that we will be hinting towards throughout the year. Being the 15th anny of FR we have to do it BIG this year event and that is one reason we are changing venues for FR15.



As always we aim to bring you the best tournament you've ever competed in each and every year and FR15 will try to top this years event! We are upgrading the venue from this past year event and we hope everyone will enjoy our new venue. The "WESTIN" is the new home of FR15 and here's the location:



The "WESTIN" Atlanta Perimeter North



7 Concourse Parkway

Atlanta,Georgia

30328

United States



With the 15th aniversary of Final Round we felt that we had to upgrade on the venue and we heard the complaints about having to pay for parking. This year there will be NO PARKING FEE'S!!!!! That goes for players that get a room at the hotel or for those that want to spectate. The Room rates will be $93.00 per night (Normally $165) if you reserve under the Final Round 15 group rate.



I CAN'T WAIT for this event to happen! If you think your serious about Fighting games and you always wanted to come to Final Round, but never had the chance to attend then don't MISS the 15th aniversary of FINAL ROUND!

As taken from the front page of SRK:


TeamSpooky and iPlayWinner to producer the first ever fighting game centered internet reality show. The show is called “Cross Assault” and it will follow the exploits of ten players as they try to win a prize of $25,000. Here is a description from the official press release.

Competing on Capcom’s next premier fighting game, Street Fighter X Tekken, the playing field is even. With strategic advice from the coaches, players must work together as a team and race to find the most effective strategies to win team challenges, or risk elimination.

And it’s completely LIVE. We will be live streaming practice sessions, team challenges, elimination matches, as well as player interviews and insight from special guests. You can watch as much as you want, and see the action unfold as it happens.

Cross Assault will be held in February with the finals being held at Final Round in Atlanta, GA, and you can enter! Just make a video telling Capcom why you would be a good contestant on Cross Assault and upload it to the internet. Then, submit the video link at the official Cross Assault application and rules page. You have to choose whether you are part of team Street Figther or team Tekken when you enter. Heck, for $25,000, I’ll be on any team you want me to be Capcom."

Directions:

Hey man the easiest way to geto the hotel from the airport is to take the local transit system. Our train is called MARTA. It cost $2.50 to ride and there is a station with a train at the airport that will take you to the hotel. Check out the following website for location of stations and where you have to goto.​
http://www.itsmarta.com/ns-med-overview.aspx this is for the medical center and it's the closer out of the 2 stations. The shortest to walk from if you can't get a shuttle.​
This is a spot for a major atlanta mall so you might get distracted by the ATL females on the train and going towards the mall.​
There are 2 MARTA stations within a mile of the event hotel and you can call the hotel shuttle to pick you up from the train station if you have a room booked under the Final Round group rate. I hope this helps you out sir.​
 
We have some VERY EXCITING NEWS COMING UP that I think everyone in these forums will enjoy at FR15!
 
To much to read and kinda complicated for people who aren't familiar with the abreviations...
In other words I don't understand not one bit! No sarcasm or anything like that intended.

THANK YOU FOR THE STICKY MODS! I can't wait to spill the beans shawty!
You're welcome. For some reason, the Soulcalibur community has never really supported Final Round; and I never understood why. Some of the best players in our community come from the Georgia and Tennessee area, so it's always been amazing that Soulcalibur always gets a poor showing. We seem to have the same issue with Devastation as well... even though both you and DrDogg go out of your way to try to please us.

Well this year we've finally shown support to Devastation and I'm hoping the community will do the same for FinalRound.

Actually back in the SC3 days Final Round was huge. I remember in 2007 we had 45 entrants and almost the same number in 2008 even though SC3 was on the decline with the announcement that SC4 was coming. It was when SC4 came that support from our community dropped, no idea why though.

We supported Dev last year. Hopefully FR blows up next year for SC.
