Photoshop is my friend!

It's difficult being short at gaming events. When we weren't peeking around heads to try and view the fighting on screen we were on tip-toe trying to capture some of the intense expressions fans were showing while getting a hands-on with the upcoming fifth installment of the Soulcalibur series. Loud groans and cheers peppered the room while several matches went on simultaneously.

Soulcalibur producer Hisaharu Tago was on hand at this packed event and upon introduction yelled out a hearty, "Keep playing Soulcalibur!"to the crowd right before a heated tournament began. Couldn't make it out to the event? Check out our photo gallery below!

Above: Tago was a popular figure throughout the night
