The Next Level In Gaming

So far, there’s been nothing but pleasing news about my most anticipated fighter *ever*, Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds. Mixing some classic characters with very welcome newcomers, the roster we knew so far contained Capcom’s Ryu, Chris Redfield, Morrigan, Felicia and Dante, and also Marvel’s Wolverine, Iron Man, Hulk, Deadpool, and Captain America. They were off to a good start, and since then I’ve been anxious to hear more. There are plenty of characters we expect to [...]

You may remember sometime last week a post done by me highlighting the rumour about Capcom Vs Namco and visa versa. Well I am pleased to announce at Comic Con this weekend the rumour came true…well almost. Original Rumour: Capcom Vs Namco, a game putting various characters from the Capcom and Namco games and pitting them against each other. Much like Marvel Vs Capcom.  There will be two games being made one by Capcom with the Street Fighter IV engine [...]

In my eyes, Capcom create the best fighting games out there, and nothing compares. Tekken? Too button mashy. Virtua Fighter? Too realistic and difficult to pick up and play. Mortal Kombat? Too cheesy. Now, I’m not saying that I don’t think these series’ have their merits – it’s generally personal preference to which fighter suits you best – but games like Capcom vs SNK 2 and Street Fighter IV are examples of the few fighters that keep me genuinely hooked, not getting simply played [...]

Last year we saw a miniature uprising in the games industry. Casual gaming made an all time high with the release of both Wii Fit and Wii Fit plus, with Wii Fit becoming the biggest selling game of all time. Both the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises went into overdrive, releasing a grand total of two new Rock Band titles and six new Hero titles (including Band Hero and DJ Hero). 2009 also saw some great gaming titles too, such [...]

So once again somebody is picking a fight with Capcom and this time its epic. Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars was developed by Eighting and Capcom and developed for the Wii. It’s the 7th in the ’VS’ series and features characters from Capcom’s top games as well as characters from Tatsunoko’s animation studios. We are actually lucky to get this game as there were a few problems localizing the game outside Japan as developers were worried the Tatsunoko characters wouldn’t appeal to a non-Japanese audience and the rights to most of [...]

Street Fighter IV is what all beat ‘em up fans want, retro 2D fighting coupled with amazing next gen graphics :) Just excuse the arcade boss for being an ass.
