Is it me or there's no real hype for SBO as before?  

[PureYeti]

Yea I feel the same way also. After like 2009 or 2010, the spirit in SBO doesn't feel the same anymore. The tournament presentation was a disaster here and there was many complaints.

[TheDuskwalker]

Is it me or there's no real hype for SBO as before?  

Both Kayane and Justin Wong said it was quite a disaster.

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/aug/03/justin-wong-noting-significant-problems-arcade-machines-sbo/

Quite sad.

[Don Vecta]

Not to mention lack of free, open streams for all the world to watch, lack of some important games (yes, KOF XIII, bitches!) and overall lack of hype from the FG community. I remember when this event was the créme of the créme in fighting games, even EVO paled to this event and ANYONE who would participate there was immediately branded as a demi-god/god in fighting games.
