BAM (Battle Arena Melbourne) is a two day fighting game tournament aimed at being the grand finale for the Australian tournament season.

There will be scheduled tournaments throughout the weekend as well the possibility for on the day tournaments organised by dedicated enthusiasts, with full results and finals media posted online for recognition after the tournament.
Each tournament will have it's own prize pool based on entry fees as well as currently unconfirmed sponsored prizes as they are announced closer to the event, stay tuned to the website for more details as we get a better idea of the prizes on offer!
This year we are also pleased to announce that we will have three brand new games to preview before their release! STREET FIGHTER x TEKKEN, ULTIMATE MARVEL vs CAPCOM 3 and SOUL CALIBUR 5. These titles will be available on both Xbox360 and PS3 for casual play and some ad hoc mini-tournaments throughout the weekend. Come along and check them out!
Casual play will also be available throughout the weekend in areas set aside for players to bring in their own equipment and enjoy having a few games with other attendees.
It's a great opportunity to gain practice and meet other Australian fighting game players who've travelled to enjoy the event. You can even challenge them to a money match or two!
We hope to see you all there for a fantastic end to 2011's season!
