#CapcomNEWS Resident Evil 4 + Street Fighter 6

 Here's some pretty kickass trailers from the latest State of Play! And I gotta say, I like what we got to see. 

First up, I can see why Capcom made RE Village and 4 Remake back to back. Looks like they might recycle some assets between games. And I dig it. I can't imagine a remake of RE5 or 6 after this (or make them proper single player puzzle-driven stories). So, why not go after Code Veronica next?


The new weirdly realistic Street Fighter looks pretty good actually.

#GamingNEWS Street Fighter 6 - Teaser Trailer

 The second and big announcement from Capcom is simply a teaser for the upcoming Street Fighter 6!

Get Hyped!

Well, it's just a quick CGi teaser. But it confirms the game is in the works.

Personally I'd like a list of consoles, vague release window and/or list of characters, but HEY! We can't have it all! I like how default Ryu is the bearded one from SF5, like most of us presumed.

Oh, and I almost forgot: This new logo is AWFUL!! I hope it's a placeholder!! It looks like a bad "internet app" that has "6 unread emails"... Just use SF5's logo again updated with a 6. It was colorful and better than SF4. Better yet, bring an older logo back, like SF2 or 1 (!), it will look nostalgic and retro!

#FightingNEWS #EVO2019 announcements

Here's a bunch of fighting game news, straight from #EVO 2019!

First up Ed Boon & Netherrealm Studios finally showed ONE of the upcoming new DLC characters for Mortal Kombat 11's Kombat Pack , fan-favorite Nightwolf! (Sorry Sindel, and even worse, Mileena fans, nothing for you guys..)



During EVO 2019's big Dragon Ball FighterZ finals, Arc System Works officially announced Janemba and Gogeta with the following trailer. And Janemba's getting released this week no less!



And while I might not be a big fan of it, let's not skip French Bread's update for their 2D fighter Under Night In-Birth: EXE Late[cl-r]. Yeah. Such a weird silly name. But things look pretty decent though:



Slightly ahead of schedule for EVO, thanks to a Valve/Steam leak, the announcement of more Street Fighter V DLC characters! All available right ahead! Fans wanted E.Honda for so long.. and we even got two more Final Fight guest, thanks Ono!



One of the big announcements of EVO was Harada announcing a major update for TEKKEN 7 as well as a new Season 3 that will include a bunch of changes, stages and characters. Starting with a fan much requested return and a newcomer for T7:



BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle is getting EVEN MORE characters! It's not the best game ever.. but I love it!



SNK probably confirmed development on the new King of Fighters XV with the following logo:


As well as the full roster of DLC (which includes a free character) for the Samurai Shodown reboot - along the confirmation of a Season 2 coming in 2020 with more DLC characters! PLEASE ADD IROHA, SNK!!



And while we're on the subject, NAMCO revealed the last character coming to Soul Calibur VI....



...As well as a confirmation of a Season 2 which will no less than a guest character from SNK... HAOMARU himself from Samurai Shodown!!! I love seeing all these SNK characters pop up in all sorts of fighters, lately!



But the best announcement came form ArcSys who just announcement a brand new Guilty Gear for 2020! Look how beautiful it looks! Even better than Xrd! It looks like working on Dragon Ball and Kill la Kill sure helped them master this new graphics style & engine!

#FightingNEWS at EVO'18

Some great news came out at EVO regarding some of my current favorite fighting games!

First up, after all this time TEKKEN 7's finally getting some new characters! Including 2 classic characters, 1 guest and 3 new faces later on. Here's the Season Pass 2 Reveal featuring.... the very random addition of Negan from AMCs The Walking Dead!



With Harada you never know what to expect... but you can always guess what he's currently into. He used to love the manga Gon back in the 90s, and was totally into Final Fantasy XV last year. Looks like he loves The Walking Dead series...

Street Fighter V randomly got two new characters today, after Ono's surprise playful announcement at the event, newcomer "G" and old school Sagat!





And since Base Goku & Vegeta are joining Dragon Ball FighterZ this Wednesday, August 8th, they also announced the arrival of the new character, Frieza's own non-canon brother, Cooler!

#FightingNEWS Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition + 30th Anniv. Collection

Street Fighter V's getting a new season's worth of DLC characters, various tweaks to the main base game as well as an update, Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, for those who waited this long to get into the game.

I like SFV, I really do. But I didn't get into it as much as I did SFAlpha or SFIII, personally. I even spent way more time in SFIV than SFV! I do like the game's visuals, aesthatics and gameplay. But I feel like there's a lot of my favorites that have been missing as well as the new system's not that unique or original.

Anyway, we're finally getting SF classics such as Sagat and Sakura! Great news, everyone!

Here's the announcement trailer:





WOW!! Sakura looks fantastic! I'm also glad Cody's finally out of his silly prisoner outfit, it didn't make sense to keep him that way forever.. (Damn' you, Ono, and your love for the Final Fight series!!!)

And since this year will also mark the franchise's 30th Anniversary, Capcom announced a Street Fighter 30th Anniv. Collection as well. Kind of like those Mega Man Collections recently, only with the most notable entries in the franchises: SF1 (finally, a personal fav getting some recognition!), SF2, Turbo, Alpha3 and Third Strike among many others! But those (aside from SF1) will even have online!! Personally I would have put SFEx3 and SFIV: Arcade Edition in there to have an actual complete edition. But that's just me.. Here's the trailer:



It will also include a ton of fun bonuses, like concept art and whatnot.

Can't wait to see SF get a proper revival next year!

#FightingNEWS SFV: Menat Reveal Trailer

Finally! A proper new character coming up for Street Fighter V! I say that because that last guy was, errr... questionable. (Also, I'm tired of Final Fight cameos..)

Menat, "The Eyes of the future", is coming to SFV this August 29th!

She already got a cameo in Ed's story mode.



She's an Egyptian fortune teller! People say she got some elements from Rose, from previous games, but then why not use Rose? I kind of see inspiration from other fighters, such as Eliza from Skullgirls and Viola from Soul Calibur V.

Let's see her in action:



She's cute! I'm definitively gonna try to main her.

Rumors say the last one we're getting is gonna be Guy's master.. so, yeah, technically another Final Fighter.

#MarvelNEWS Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite Teaser

Alright, it's official! The long-rumored Marvel vs. Capcom 4 - actually randomly titled Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite - is gonna be a reality!


If rumors are to be believed, this game will apparently put less focus on the X-Men and Fantastic Four characters (thanks, Fox-embargo!). Which is sad since all these fighting games started with my much beloved X-Men fighting games... No Cyclops nor Wolverine? Let's wait and see. Here's the cinematic teaser-trailer:



Captain Marvel looks badass!

The game is expected for PS4, Xbox One and Steam next year, in 2017.

#E3 NEWS! SF5

One of those exclusive PS4 games that is really making me doubt which next gen console to pick.



Coming to Street Fighter V - a lot of regular SF2... and Birdie from SF1 & Alpha!! Color me surprised!!



I really dig the new art style! It's close to past games and SF4, but the subtle new details make all the differences! Chun-Li looks gorgeous! I can't wait to see what characters will be back. Hopefully a lot more SF3 charas this time...

#E3 NEWS! Ryu joins SMASH

Of course I've seen the news, Ryu from Street Fighter will be added to Super Smash Bros. for Wi U! After rumors since as early as April, it has finally been officially confirmed by Nintendo.

Enjoy the reveal trailer:



They're also adding a few others odd paid DLC characters, new stages (including Ryu's classic SF2 stage), new music, etc.

While this is pretty neat, I still have yet to play/buy this game. Heck, I also wanted to try Splatoon and I haven't so far. I mean, I was super hyped for Hyrule Warriors, and I don't even have that one either. I'm not one for "Day 1" releases... Oh, well.


Anyways - it's a nice addition, he looks nice. Like Nintendo actually has some respect for the character unlike Capcom, 'really liked the little nods to the original game. Enjoy his remixed theme song for Smash:

#MusicBOX - STREET FIGHTER II - GUILE'S THEME with Lyrics!

And no, I'm not talking about Brentalfloss "With Lyrics" series here.

The folks at Fox' Animation Domination High-Def added some crass lyrics of their own to SF2's infamous Guile Theme!

Check it out! Or not. But BE WARNED!



Back then, men used to shave their eyebrows, it's true!

#Gaming NEWS! STREET FIGHTER 5 is real!

Earlier today the first teaser trailer to an upcoming STREET FIGHTER 5 was "leaked" (by Capcom's PR to create some buzz, no doubt). And quickly pulled out. People have been trying to get it up but Capcom is pulling all of the videos offline.


Anyway, this means a new SF is now official! Story goes it's going to be a PS4/PC exclusive (I guess that helps me narrow down which "next gen" system to get, heh?).

The actual official announcement is supposed to come out at Sony's Playstation Experience.

Here's some screenshots taken directly from the video:













I love the new sleaker and improved artstyle! Gorgeous graphics (even though the models seems to be SF4's in hi-res). And pretty impressive effects in picture!
