Just pay 10 for arena 1 and 10 for arena 2. 20 dolla < 30 dolla. It is $30 total for a season pass: Arena 1, Online Qualifier HD upgrade, Arena 2, and Pro Circuit HD/Extra streams, or $15 for gold members. A la carte purchasing is not recommended. | ||

FGC prize pool at arena is a lot smaller than the sc2 prize pool. Plus they're trying to attract the FGC market into watching MLG, so have to start at a lower price point. | ||

The fighting arena is a stand alone 1 day event, 4 hours for each title. It has no Season tie in and is completely funded by Sony. | ||

I didn't know sony was paying for it all. | ||

The FGC arena is completely funded by Sony. It is also a single day cast that will not have nearly the production values of the SC2 arena, nor any type of Pro Circuit tie in for rankings or prizes. SC2 will have $110,000 in prize money in Spring Season plus 56 fully paid global trips. | ||
