I happen to think that a pretty wild Street Fighter III 3rd Strike combo video is a great way to start your day. rKf released his 6th volume today, and while long time fans of the game may not see anything brand new, the video is a very enjoyable view (especially the intermission). [tip from [...]

Skullgirls Friday promotional match is a one on one battle between Master Chibi’s Ms Fortune and Rithli’s Parasoul.  The one thing I noticed is that the game has a best of three rounds system when playing one vs one, but remains like an MvC game (with only one battle) when either player has more than [...]

Jaxel over at 8WayRun put up some detailed impressions of the latest build of Soul Calibur V. I haven’t been excited about this series in a long time, but I really like some of the things being done in this game. Jaxel’s write up just affirmed my feeling (especially what he wrote about Viola), so [...]

The official Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 website was updated today with a pretty comprehensive change log for the Marvel side of the cast. Capcom-Unity just came through with an official translation.

I didn’t think a character could have a more boring set of alternate colors than Felicia. I was wrong. Enter Hsien-Ko, who’s colors are almost entirely inspired by past Hsien-Ko alternate colors. This post has now been updated with X-23′s alternate color options, thanks to the Marvel blog. Thanks to Capcom-Unity for the information.

Soul Calibur V’s release date was announced to be January 31st, 2012 last night. With such an early date, development must be picking up steam, and as such we expect to see a lot more SCV news in the next few months. Fans who pre-order the game will receive access to a character that I [...]

Other than the EVO Heart of Gold montage, this will probably rank as my favorite tournament montage to date. HarmonicTunes put together a look at the people who made Seasons Beatings Velocity special, and if this doesn’t inspire you to head out to a local or regional tournament, I’m not sure what will.

- Behrudy posted a video that explains some of the finer points of the Dudley vs Bison matchup in SSF4AE. This is very well worth your time for the editing and presentation of the information. – Ilitirit uploaded a great video showing off some SSF4AE trade option selects. – Error1 uploaded gameplay footage of his [...]

Who is man enough to stab Soul Calibur’s Nightmare in the face? Ezio from Assassin’s Creed seems to want the job, as he makes quite the entrance in the trailer below. I don’t think a more perfect guest character could possibly exist for this series, but will Ezio crash this soul and sword party all [...]

The following press release comes from the guys behind this year’s SoCal Regionals. The big news here may be that Atlus seems willing to support the King of Fighters XIII in the tournament scene after its release. Press Release Fighting game fans worldwide have long awaited the new King of Fighters XIII title to hit [...]

Normally, Ov3rheadGreg would upload replays of top players in Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition separately, but today he is trying a new format and would like your feedback. Each of today’s matches are in the same video, but timecodes will lead you to the individual matches you want to see. Those timecodes can be [...]

Just in case it wasn’t clear enough, a translation (by Capcom-Unity) of the latest Street Fighter X Tekken Developer Blog reiterates that the gem system is such a big part of the game that it cannot be toggled on and off. A few notes about Gods Garden X Capcom and Version 2012 are also included. [...]

Maximilian just uploaded a special episode of ASSIST ME in which he talks about the changes to Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. Of course, each note is supported with video to help you follow along. This is a must view for anyone serious about UMvC3. This is focused on system changes, and not individual character [...]

Avoiding The Puddle is reporting that two Namco representatives appeared at Super Arcade to install “testing equipment”. The big issue keeping Tekken Tag Tournament 2 out of US Arcades is connectivity with the game’s servers in Japan. Perhaps US location tests will come soon. Lets keep our fingers crossed.
