On Friday, August 20th, to Sunday, August 22nd, at Byron Hall (part of Harrow Leisure Centre) in Harrow & Wealdstone, London, Neo Empire will be throwing their huge fighting game competition Super Vs. Battle. (more…)

By now most of us have read about all the anouncements from the Street Fighter panel at Comic-Con but what many of us weren’t aware of is how much of a circus it was. Check out the footage below which is was taken at the panel. Interesting if only mildly entertaining.

I gotta admit I’m kinda surprised at this one. Many people were pointing at signs that Street Fighter X Tekken might be in the making but it just didn’t make sense since Capcom is currently pushing Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. Well, I was wrong because at ComicCon today Yoshinori Ono anounced that Capcom will be doing Street Fighter X Tekken and Namco will be making a Tekken x Street Fighter Game. This is similar to the approach that was taken with the SNK Vs. games, each company making their own version.

Seems like Street Fighter X Tekken will be running on the Street Fighter IV engine and all the Street Fighter characters will also be using their models from that game as well. HOwever gameplay is likely going to be a bit different as it involved some sort of tag team matches. It’ll be interesting to see how they handle the fact that Tekken doesn’t use projectiles. Can’t wait to to hear more about this one.

Like everyone else, I’m awaiting Ono’s dropping of major Street Fighter news today. In the meantime though, we may all want to check out Capcom’s UStream account because there is likely some cool stuff going on there such as people playing Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 and whatnot. (more…)

We’ve gotten some amazing Vs. games over the years which of course include some very awesome dream match ups with some very iconic characters. However there is one match up that has been in players minds since the popularity of fighting games exploded almost two decades ago, Mortal Kombat Vs. Street Fighter. (more…)

Christian Svensson had a nice lengthy interview with Gamasutra and said a whole lot of interesting things. (more…)

Some of the big wigs over at Capcom Unity took some time to answer some questions pertaining to some of their fighting games such as Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom and Super Street Fighter IV. (more…)

One thing you can say about gamers is that they are a imaginative bunch. Take for instance these fan made advertisements for a few Capcom fighters by some of the guys over at the Capcom Europe forums. Remember that they are fan made so don’t start getting your hopes up for a Capcom Vs. SNK 3 … yet.

It kinda sucks when you hear from a developer about characters they wanted to get into a game but because of time, budget or storage constraints were not able to make it happen. Such was the case with Tatsunoko Vs Capcom. According to a small flyer called the TvC: Secret File, that came with Tatsunoko Vs Capcom if you preordered it, several fighters were left on the chopping block.

However, in a interview with Ryota Niitsuma, the producer of Tatsunoko Vs Capcom. Those characters may make it into the game afterall as DLC (downloadable content).

Who are these lost characters? Just Phoenix Wright, Komugi, Rollerblade Hero Muteking and the cult favorite Ingrid

It doesn’t take people long to find serious glitches in games now-a-days. For instance this Tatsunoko VS Capcom glitch found over on on the SRK boards by a user named Smurvis.
