Or so Capcom thinks. Either way, anybody that picks up SFIV for the PC will get a MadCatz Fightpad for free. The game is priced a bit higher than most PC games at $59.99 but a $39.99 game plus a $39.99 fightpad is good enough for me. Gamers may wonder why MadCatz is so busy making PC fightpads when there is a shortage of console ones, but the fact is is that nobody wants to play Street Fighter with a mouse and keyboard (awaits barrage of ppl yelling at me that they play it on an emulator with a keyboard all the time).Capcom will release Street Fighter IV (Games for Windows Live for those that don't know) on July 7th here in the States.

            When I first saw the early gameplay footage of Street Fighter IV I was ready to start flipping in the air and do moonsault kicks in celebration, but then I remembered I couldn’t. I’m probably not the only one in saying that The World Warrior is my favorite installment of the Street Fighter franchise and seeing Street Fighter IV in action made me so excited because in many ways, it was like seeing a modern version of one of the greatest classic fighting games of all time. Still the question stood, could Capcom create a sequel that kept everything that makes a good Street Fighter game while still adding enough to the mix that would attract new fans? Thankfully they did almost exactly that in giving us a great new chapter in the Street Fighter saga. Read More...

Join us at the Street Fighter IV Launch! So, what better way to celebrate the birthday of the man that helped to end slavery than to go beat people down via Street Fighter IV? I mean really? Capcom is thinking the exact same thing, and they want you, or at least 302 of you to join in the fun. Well as long as you live in the Southern California area or can get there tomorrow night. The Geffen Museum of Contemporary Art in downtown LA to be exact. But there is something you need to do first. Read More...

Guilty Gear has always been one of my favorite series of fighter games because it greatly impairs our oh-so-beloved button mashers from pwning ass. Take Soul Calibur II for instance: when playing as Rafael, by repeatedly pushing one button, Rafael will rapidly flail his sabre, often leaving the other player no chance to retaliate. The control structure in Guilty Gear is so brilliant because rapidly pushing the punch or kick button won't get you very far: special combos are based mainly on the combination of buttons and quarter or half turns with the joystick or directional pad. It has so far proven to be a very difficult game to master - but isn't that what one looks for? Read More...

Capcom's Gamer Day Alright, so, I wasn't able to make it to this years Capcom convention. A little upset since it took place in my home city.

I'm a little let down I didn't go, but I have the stories to share with ya. The guys at one of the best Game sites, Kotaku.com, has all the stuff we want. Read More...
