I DO play other games, not just Fighting. Take Devil May Cry, for example. I consider myself a “Great” DMC player. I use Jump Canceling, Royal Cancels, Exceed Combos, and of course, a healthy amount of taunting. But there are those that outstrip me in skill. I love watching players destroying everything around them, with plenty of substance hidden within pure flash. What are you waiting for? CLICK JUMP NAO! Read the rest of this entry »
If these words intrigue you, you might just want to check out Battle Fantasia, soon to be released on the Xbox 360 this September. If you like your games a little slower and more methodical than Guilty Gear or Street Fighter, this game looks less fast paced and more suited to ground battles and quick combos. It looks to borrow a few pages from RPG’s as well, seeing as it incorporates Hit Points and character style ripped from a story book. I’m looking out for this one. Seeing as I got off my lazy ass and got a job, I might actually buy this.
EVO, the longest running fighting game tournament in the world, started this morning at 9:00 A.M. The games running are: Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike, Capcom Vs. SNK 2, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo, And Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. Jump for more win.
EVO 2008, for those of you who don’t know, is the largest annual fighting game tournament that is held in Las Vegas. This weekend (same time as Otakon) is when the action begins. The world’s best fighters, and I use that term very lightly and in a video game sense, will be there to compete in SF3, MvC2, Tekken 5, SSBB, SF2 Turbo, and Capcom vs. SNK 2. They are also having demos of new fighters such as BlazBlue, SF4, and SF2 HD Remix (which we will now refer to as SUPER street fighter 2 turbo hd remix WITH SPINNING RIMS Deluxe edition Hyper aniversary collection 10th edition redux the 7th addon the old generation collectors set Special crazy ultra evolution 2006 the movie Zero New and improved taste extra flavor remake).
Wish I could be there to at least see the best beat the hell out of the best. Another time…
