What To Watch This Weekend: Games Done Quick, Counter-Strike, And Street Fighter II
This may be the last week we have before games start hitting on the regular. Next week we have a bevy of new releases, and the release calendar doesn't look like it'll be slowing down for a while. In the meantime, though, there's plenty of stuff to watch this weekend.
Awesome Games Done Quick will have its finale today, but that still means we have hours and hours of speedruns left before the concluding Undertale speedrun. (Stream / Schedule)
Later today marks the return of 2 Old 2 Furious, a tournament series highlight older Capcom fighting games like Super Street Fighter II Turbo, Street Fighter Alpha 2, and Street Fighter EX2 Alpha Plus. So if you bemoan the state of modern fighters and want to see some retro fighter action, the action starts at 5pm Central. (Stream)
On Sunday, the King of Fighters XIV's World Championship will be holding one of its first qualifying events in Peru. This will serve as the introduction of SNK's attempts to build a pro circuit around the game (similar to the Capcom Pro Tour), so it should be interesting watch. The action starts Sunday at 10am Central. (Stream)
That's it for this weekend! Let us know if we missed any events, or if you'd like to see a particular game covered, in the comments below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
