The rise of Xbox Live and PSN have given us the luxury of on-demand multiplayer, but there's still something to be said for playing the old-fashioned way, face-to-face. Or in the case of the Underground Gaming Tournament League, playing with over 100 people in a huge warehouse decked out with TVs, video games, and game-related art.
This last weekend, UGTL4 brought together game enthusiasts from all over Southern California to listen to music, watch live art, gorge on tacos, and play in a highly competitive Street Fighter 4 tournament.
This video is a compilation of audio interviews and photographs featuring the artists, the event staff at UGTL4, and the tournament finalists (Alex Valle, ComboJack, and Mike Ross). (Photos by PK aka Ryan "The Hammer" Gayatinea.)
