to get some hands-on time with Tatsunoko VS
Capcom:

On Monday,
January 4th, from 5-8pm, we’re inviting you down to
Capcom’s San Mateo HQ to play the final build of
Tatsunoko Vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars almost a month
early! We’ll have all the insane characters unlocked,
plenty of joysticks, pads, Wii-motes, drinks, pizzas…
well, you get the idea.

So, for those of you that messaged Seth and got
in, I’ll see you tonight as I join the celebrity duo of
Seth
Killian and href="http://www.capcom-unity.com/jgonzo/blog/2009/10/23/ign_interviews_justin_wong_about_super_street_fighter_iv">Justin
Wong along with fellow community man slash A/V
specialist href="http://www.capcom-unity.com/snow_infernus">Snow and other Capcom
employees (such as the ever popular href="http://www.capcom-unity.com/kramez">Kramez and the articulate
href="http://www.capcom-unity.com/sven">Sven).

For the rest of you, no sad faces: we’ll be
broadcasting the event live via href="http://www.capcom.com/bumper.php?tgtwww=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ustream.tv%2Fchannel%2Funity-events">Ustream

PST. See? That’s not TOO bad.

GET
HYPE!

While we
were on holiday break, there’s been (as we say here in
Northern California) “hella” Street Fighter news cropping
up lately. Here are a few highlights for anyone that
hasn’t been poring over the internet for every iota of
info:

–Our pal Maj
over at href="http://www.sonichurricane.com/">SonicHurricane.com
has put together another killer combo vid with Viper and
Rufus.

–The Japanese
SFIV blog gave us some new Super SFIV key
art:

–The mighty href="http://www.shoryuken.com/">Shoryuken.com
also held voting for the “Best Match of the
Year.” All fighting games were eligible, but I
was proud to see the finalists were all Capcom games,
including SFIV, Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, MVC2, and SF3: Third
Strike :) There were a ton of great finalists,
