Yeah, everything stopped because everyone assumed Harada was about to come on stage. Tasty Steve running around looking for Harada was hilarious though, the absolute stunned look of shock and surprise and him yelling "HARADA! WHERE ARE YOU? GET OUT HERE! DON'T DO THIS TO ME HARADA!" would've legitimately been probably my favorite part of EVO this year if it had been a real reveal.

As it was there were people in the crowd around me jumping up and down with excitement and yelling that Snake is going to be in Tekken. It also definitely made the announcement a bit anti-climactic. After the one trailer and Harada walking off stage everyone expected him to come back and ask if we wanted one more like he did last year and then show a Snake trailer. Lots of people around me saying things like "Wait, was that really it? No trailer for Snake?". Zafina looks pretty cool but honestly the Tekken Team should be super proud because Leroy freaking Smith saved it. If he didn't look so awesome the announcement definitely would've felt hollow, at least to people in the arena.
