Unity
is oiling
up to slide downtown for a secret Street
Fighter event in honor of GDC
2010.
Although it's going down in an undisclosed
location, we're going to try and stream out
some of the action on our ustream
channel starting around 6:30pm
PST.
They won't let us
take direct feed of the action, but there should be some
good shots of the room with a few famous Street Fighters
and games-industry neer-do-wells cruising around, and
I'll try to bust a few shoryuken FADC -> Ultra on the
iphone. Plus who knows what could "slip" on
there--anything can happen live...
The Super SFIV devs are back with a
new blog talking about the new king of Super
Street Fighter IV: Dudley. They talk
about the secret to his charm, his new moves, his Ultras
(you're all going to be hit by so many Corkscrew Crosses
you'll cry!) and of course throwing the rose!
Credit as always to SRK's
Azrael, and hit the jump for the full
piece.

Hello everyone. This
is Tsukamoto.
This week I'll be
joined by director Okada and the head battle planner
Sano, as we talk about the last of the new characters
from SF3 - Dudley - and things ranging from how he was
chosen and what not.
-- First off,
please tell us why Dudley was chosen to be added in the
game.

If you are tired of combo videos that concentrate on the highest possible damage then you should definitely check a new combo video by 36*Crazyfists. This guy shows some really unorthodox Bryan stuff and if you are looking for a definition of ‘creativity’, start by watching this movie.
TV02Channel has uploaded videos from last weekend’s TEKKEN 6 Global Championship Finals from Tokio. Be sure to watch the videos in case you’ve missed the UFRAG.TV stream or had some technical problems watching it and see how the players from all around the world competed to achieve The King Of Iron Fist Tournament 2010 title!
Hey guys, x45x here with Question Fighter 4 Episode 7. Today we got some interesting questions for both Justin and Gootecks. Things like their schooling, what they would be doing if they were not playing Street Fighter, and non-Street Fighter games.
That's
par for the course, but he also decided to ask you guys
"what would you ask Seth if you could ask him
something?" Well, many of you are already doing
exactly that in the "Ask
Capcom" forum, but a lot of people chimed in
with some good questions in the
comments.
I wanted to
try and answer least a few of those questions, but then I
realized I didn't have a good way to choose which ones to
tackle, and before I knew it, I had spent my Sunday
answering all of them. They range from
potentially useful info to the downright useless, but
hey--they were Unity's questions, so I did my
best. If not everything is your cup of tea,
don't say I didn't warn you!
--What aspect of Super Street Fighter 4 has (or
will) prove to be THE innovation for the Street Fighter 4
series and the fighting game genre in
general?
@Ryan:
Honestly I think it will be the match recordings and the
way they feed back into the community. There
are lots of changes to the SSFIV mechanics, but the
biggest innovation will be the chance to easily build up
a library of your own matches (and those of others) while
you're just playing like you normally would. So
often something quirky will happen in a match and I'll
think "hrm..." but then mentally skip over it because too
much else is going on, or I just want to play the next
match. With SSFIV, however, you can really see
your strengths and weaknesses quickly if you choose to
look back.
After a long break Jon747 uploaded some new Tekken 6 videos from the Korean MBC Game channel! This time the best players of the TEKKEN GOSU were invited to a live show to face each other in a tournament in the show’s studio. Check out the rest of the entry for the videos mentioned. Keep in mind that the participants are online players so don’t expected a high-level Korean matches you could’ve gotten used to. Yet, they are fun to watch.
