Street Fighter 4 Confirmed!

What could be better than Capcom bringing back Bionic Commando? How about Street Fighter 4? Games Radar is reporting from the Capcom Gamer's Day in London that the 4th game in the series has been officially confirmed. A stylized trailer of Ken and Ryu fighting was shown, but no actual gameplay footage, and while development has started the game is still more than a year away for whatever platform it ends up coming out on, Still, we can all rest easy that it is indeed on the way.

The biggest fighting game tournament series in Japan is already underway! Tougeki 2007, also known as the Super Battle Opera, is an international affair with talent from Australia, Korea, England, USA among other countries! Check out our quick report on the T5DR tournament by clicking below!

The three teams that represented USA were unfortunately all eliminated in the first round. The Australian team and Shanghai teams also did not advance past the opening round, however the UK team of Tissuemon(Marduk), Ryan Hart(Kazuya) and Cris(Julia) played fairly well before losing to Team KOREA later in the tournament.

This year’s team tournament featured a LOT of great matches and down to the wire moments! It was definitely a sight to see for Tekken fans!

MGS4 gameplay demo revealed

Ninja Gaiden Σ

So i played the demo over and over... and over again, and read countless reviews just to convince myself that this game rocks... and it worked and now im broke. Anyways, i've just ordered myself a copy today expect to see it around august since i went for the longer shipping option, i opted for the "within 4 weeks delivery" rather than the "2 days shipping" option.. im cheap like that :) hopefully it arrives earlier so that i can put the game in the arcade and the players could have some ninpo action...

Guilty Gear 2 news

Fans of the Guilty Gear series may be used to the rough ride Arc Systemworks asks of them, what with the confusing sequel/spin-off numbering scheme and that whole Bridget gender confusion issue. But word from the new issue of Famitsu reveals that fans will be asked to endure the rough Guilty Gear seas once again as the series sees a major shift. It's moving from high-res 2D sprites to 3D. And that's not all.

According to 1UP's recount of the Famitsu story, Guilty Gear 2 Overture will employ real-time stra

tegy gameplay, interspersed with 3D head to head fighting. An odd choice, yes, but we'll have to see it in action before we pass judgment.

The game is due to hit the Xbox 360 at an unspecified date. Frankly, I can't wait to see how they pull this one off.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3161381

IMO if the Guilty Gear series would jump from 2D to 3D that would suck, everybody loves the fast paced 2D action that we get from the guilty gear series right?

Ninja Gaiden Σ anyone?

TEKKEN 6 UPDATE!

Yet another new character has been added to the Tekken 6 line-up...

Character info ~ Miguel ~

Despising the thought of having his life in the hands of others, Miguel sought to live his life on his own. Even after being raised strictly by his parents, the blood thirsty personality of Miguel found him starting fights with the people around him and caused him to be seen as a rebel amongst everyone he knew. After countless arguments and disagreements with his parents he decided to leave his home when he was just 15. He found sanctuary at a bar he visited often. Miguel trusted no one, except his kind-hearted sister, who he cared about more than anyone. She visited him secretly without their parents knowing about it. Some time later, Miguel’s sister told him that she was to be married. Miguel was outraged and seriously thought of killing her fiance. On the day of the wedding Miguel watched the ceremony from outside of the church, not wanting to be seen by his parents. Under the clear blue sky, almost as if it was a blessing, a line of planes passed by the wedding… when just a moment later, a violent, burning inferno covered the scene. Miguel was blown away, although he was in great pain and almost collapsed, he tried desperately to look for his sister inside the remains of the church. When he finally found her, Miguel saw that his sister was dead and her wedding dress soaked in her blood. Miguel’s screams echoed throughout the ruins. Some time after Miguel discovered that the air raid was ordered by the Mishima Zaibatsu, and with furious hatred he vowed to get revenge on the Zaibatsu’s leader, Jin Kazama.

Character profile ~ Jin Kazama ~

Upon defeating his great grandfather, Jinpachi Mishima, Jin became the new head of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Jin brought chaos and suffering across the globe using the Tekken Forces to get rid of each county’s military power and take control of their energy resources, even their space colonies. After all that was done, the Mishima Zaibatsu declared itself an independent nation and declared war against all who opposed them. It seemed that the Mishima Zaibatsu would conquer the entire world until another power finally opposed Jin’s organization. G-Corporation, led by Kazuya Mishima, puts a bounty on Jin Kazama’s head. Almost as if Jin was expecting that G-Corporation would get involved, he immediately announced “The King of the Iron Fist Tournament 6.”

Jin Kazama is becoming the new antagonist in this chapter of the Tekken series, i never though the story would turn out this way. Nice twist...

Tekken 6 Storyline & Profiles

Storyline
The 5th King of the Iron Fist Tournament has ended with Heihachi Mishima missing and the eventual winner being Jin Kazama.Jin Kazama then assumes the role as head of the Mishima Zaibatsu and begins using the special Tekken force units for propaganda and manipulative acts all over the world. Eventually many people become upset by this and it starts riots and eventually war amongst nations.With the world now at war, many nations lose their power and the Mishima Zaibatsu declares itself as an independent nation.The Mishima Zaibatsu is intent on conquering the world with only G Corporation to stand in its way. People around the world see G Corporation as a savior and G Corporation offers a price on Jin Kazama to anyone that can bring him in alive.Just as anyone could have expected, the announced for the 6th King of Iron Fist Tournament was under way.Those that want to make a name for themselves, those that seek money, and those that want revenge. Many different ideals and goals gather while the Tekken 6 tournament is unveiled.

TEKKEN 6 NEWS!

I've just read some article regarding the next installment in the TEKKEN series ---

TEKKEN 6

----------

All characters have an "item move", like the Bryan shotgun we saw at the AOU trailer. Although not all of them will have the same effectiveness. An example of an "item move" will be Anna throwing her high heels at her opponents.

Fans of Yoshimitsu will probably be up late tonight, sweating the details on his changes. After so much fighting, it seems that "his sword is now losing power and he must take a new fighting style, Kenjutsu from the Manji clan, this includes both dual sword fighting and pure fist fighting."

----------

New tidbits from the latest issue of Arcadia Magazine indicate a massive overhaul for many of the older characters in Tekken 6. Among the main highlights of the article were:

- Animations have been changed for every character!
- All characters have an “item move”, like the Bryan shotgun we saw at the AOU trailer. Although not all of them will have the same effectiveness. An example of an “item move” will be Anna throwing her high heels at her opponents.
- Harada officially stated that Leo IS a girl.
- So far Yoshimitsu has gone under the most drastic change. Harada notes that it will be much more difficult to use Yoshimitsu this time around and they consider him an “Expert” character. Part of his story includes the fact that his sword is now losing power and he must take a new fighting style, Kenjutsu from the Manji clan, this includes both dual sword fighting and pure fist fighting!
- A lot of Lei Wulong’s laying down stances have been changed. They look more like Lei Fei and Shun Di’s laying down stance from Virtua Fighter 5. They also changed the properties where Lei can be counter-hit and juggled out of his laying down stances.
- Many changes were done to Marshall Law. It is noted that fans of Bruce Lee and those that know of Jeet Kune Do will be very pleased.

VIRTUA FIGHTER 5!



Just got a copy of VF5! I almost got blinded by the game's jaw dropping details. I've played Vf1 (the first 3D fighting game ive played in the arcades), 2 (i've played 2 for a while much better than VF3 imo) and VF4 (i got my ass kicked against dashfury's Vanessa in VF4) , with VF5 the game just got even better. Still got the same 3 button layout (guard / punch / kick). Dojo (Training mode) is great for those who are not familiar with the game. This game should keep 3D fighting game fans busy till Tekken 6 (2008) hit the PS3... visit challenger!
