GamesCom: Seth Killian InterviewThu, Sep 2nd, 2010, 6:10 pm (EST) BY LEE BRADLEYAside from being the Capcom Community Manager, an all-round Street Fighter master and the guy who SFIV's boss was named after, Seth Killian is also one of the nicest people you could hope to meet.

First Glimpse Of Tekken X Street FighterFri, Aug 20th, 2010, 2:27 pm (EST) BY COLIN
You've seen the trailer for Street Fighter X Tekken, you've seen the playable demo as well as multiple screenshots.

Capcom: The King of FightersWed, Aug 11th, 2010, 8:37 pm (EST) BY ADAM MA
Capcom is, at the moment, the dominant force in the fighting game industry. There's no sense in denying it, regardless of what style of fighter you may prefer.

But is their position really that hard to reach? Is there a secret formula to Capcom's success that no other developer can copy? Not really, it just takes a little bit of time and listening to a few of your fans to ensure a spot as number one. |

Recently, Warner Bros. acquired the series from Midway and announced its ninth iteration, simply titled Mortal Kombat. The game boosts gorgeous visuals, numerous fatalities, and a level of gore that shocks and amazes at the same time. |

Since then everyone and anyone has been throwing down character speculations and wish lists as to who their favorite fighting team would be, but personally I'm far more interested to see what mechanics will make it from the last game to this next-gen rebirth. After all it was the speed, chaos, and 'cool factor' that made Marvel vs Capcom 2 such a blast to play. Being able to see Wolverine tear up Ryu with his claws was just a sweet bonus. More » |
