"Number 7 on the countdown is the kind of woman you'd like to meet in a back alley somewhere... assuming your goal in life is to get your face kicked in by a girl. And kicking, I tell ya, that's this lady's thing. But look on the bright side: all that legwork apparently helped her develop some amazing glutes, and you might get some nice up-skirt shots while you're lying on the ground collecting your teeth."

"Let’s meet Visufreak. Shes one Super Street Fighter IV fan if I have ever saw one. Not only did she manage to get her hair just like the frenzied fighter, it looks like she’s got the kicks to match as well. And look at that evil eye!"
"Games are getting cheaper. Its getting pretty common for a game to drop 10-15 dollars a week after release, which is just mind boggling to me. Sure, some games will supplement themselves with DLC. But for games like Portal 2 that will most likely only release one or two DLC packs in it's life time, I just don't have a clue with how they manage to do it. So we're going to talk about the games that I do understand in at least some sense. Games like Metal Gear Solid and Street Fighter, with half..."

That is the case for everyone except this guy. Without any hands, he's still kicking ass in video games!

All Age Gaming's John Elliott brings us the 10th developer profile. This time he looks at the Street Fighter and Resident Evil series developer Capcom. See inside for a look into this renowned developer.
"Last year, (2009) was referred to by many as the year of the fighting game. The ridiculously anticipated Street Fighter 4 blew gamers away and more or less revived the genre. Marvel vs Capcom 2 returned to modern consoles, a move applauded by both new and hardcore fans. Tekken [6] landed on a non-Sony console for the first time ever, earning mostly positive feedback and reviews. Not to mention Guilty Gear developer Arc System Works made the beautiful BlazBlue. Overall it was a fantastic year ..."

"Last year we saw Capcom deliver one of the most highly-acclaimed fighting series to the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Apparently, despite the game’s critical and commercial success, it wasn’t ‘super’ enough for Capcom, as they decided to release Super Street Fighter IV. But is this beefed-up brawler worth the a round or two?"

"Just over a year ago, Street Fighter IV ushered back 2D fighters in a big way. Now, with the release of Super Street Fighter IV, Capcom proves that if it ain’t broke, tweak it and make it better. The genre is here to stay, as this game has been eagerly anticipated since hints of it dropped last summer. But is Super Street Fighter IV worthy of a full disc release or is it simply just minor DLC-esque add-ons to an already great game?"
This weeks edition of Now Shipping brings you the long awaited Super Street Fighter IV, Dead to Right Retribution and enough games to keep the entertainment alive for a long time. Plenty of releases from old to new, check them out.

"After a couple of slow weeks for game releases gamers can finally expect to see things pick up. In fact, this week is but a precursor to the month of May when the game releases get kind of crazy."
"I am going to be honest. I have never been a fighting genre fan. I was always jealous watching people who could pull off all the toughest movies in games like Mortal Kombat, Tekken, and Street Fighter. When Street Fighter IV was released February of last year I decided to give fighting games another shot. Capcom truly made sure to make all the fighters and their moves easily accessible to all who were willing to put in a little time. On top of that, the change in art style was nothing short ..."
"When it comes to fighting games, Capcom is still considered the king among many gamers. The solid gameplay offered in Capcom franchises keep hardcore virtual combatants coming back for more. But there is one thing that draws us in besides the physics engines and collision detection. It's the female fighters. That's why we've compiled a list of the sexiest female characters from Capcom fighters. Sure the pickings were slim when women first entered the Capcom fighting scene back in Street Fight..."

Great new Super Street Fighter IV commercial showing off the new characters, new modes, new combos, and more with an in-game footage/hip-hop mash-up.
When Super Street Fighter 4 was originally announced, there was a lot of excitement amongst fighting game fans. However, when Capcom made a statement that no arcade version was planned for Super Street Fighter 4, a small number of U.S. fans were concerned while the whole Japanese fighting game community were crushed. For the Japanese, arcades are a very important part to gaming, unlike in the U.S., and a major franchise like this not coming to the arcade was a bad sign. That all changed duri...
"For those of you who really enjoyed the Street Fighter series you know that it was only a matter of time before we saw a super or alpha version of Street Fighter IV. Super Street Fighter IV takes the game to a whole new level, adding ten new character and a few new online fighting modes. One problem that fighting games always had is that they simply get boring for those who do not relish in the competition of the fighting. With these new modes, that boring fighting game just became a little l..."
"With Super Street Fighter IV confirmed for release on Friday, April 30th 2010, and Lost Planet 2 just a few weeks later on May 18th, Capcom Europe has decided it is time to reveal some of the great pre-order incentives that will be available to European and Australian gamers plus some other great Lost Planet 2 news."

"A video has recently hit YouTube that confirms Dudley, Makoto, and Ibuki as playable characters in Super Street Fighter IV.
This video marks the first confirmation of their inclusion in the game, squelching considerable speculation."
"Although at first glance this game might not seem like a good idea considering the virtual buttons Capcom does have a pretty good record when it comes to the quality of their games. Furthermore the Street Fighter IV for the iPhone also has the possibility of having online gameplay which can open the doors for this potential hit on apple’s machine."
"Super Street Fighter IV assistant producer Natsuki Shiozawa posted a ginormous Q&A in last Friday's official blog update. Today, it's the core development staff's turn to answer some of the more... uhh... nerdy questions.
Here are summaries of a few questions and answers. The answers were pooled from the staff as a whole, although I believe director Takashi Tsukamoto actually wrote the post."
"If there's one thing Destructoid doesn't do enough of, it's the cataloging and rating of female body parts in a cynical bid to keep the virgins and date rapists interested. Fortunately, we plan to address that with a new series of articles that catalog and rate female body parts in a cynical bid to keep the virgins and date rapists interested. The hits will come flooding in.
So, arses. Everybody loves a good arse, unless they're proctologists who I feel wouldn't want to take their work ho..."

Watch Tobin and Yuzo from NooBTooB preview all the games slated to come out between now and April.
Keep in mind they don't cover every game. Just those they deem will be either good or interesting.
"I’m not a massive fan of Street Fighter (Mortal Kombat is my preferred fighter) and Lost Planet 1 never really grabbed my attention to experience it as there were plenty of other great games out at the time of its release, so my initial expectations upon walking into the room which THQ had set up last week to profile their upcoming games, Lost Planet 2 , Super Street Fighter IV, MotoGP 2010 (all tested on PS3) and of course Metro 2033 (tested on Xbox360) down at their PR Managers rooms in the..."
"Capcom Europe has today revealed the final box art design for the forthcoming Super Street Fighter IV. Set for release across Europe on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on April 30th 2010, as revealed earlier this week, Super Street Fighter IV will improve on it’s predecessor by offering additional characters, backgrounds, gameplay modes and those sorely missed bonus rounds from Street Fighter II."
The final version of the Super Street Fighter IV box art has been released just now for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. We've seen better, but it's not too shabby.
"In the world of video game vixens, the ladies of Street Fighter are among some of the toughest and sexiest. But it was not always this way. In 1987, the original Street Fighter made its debut in arcades around the world without any female characters. It wasn’t until 1991, with the release of Street Fighter II, that the first female character was introduced: the sexy Chun-Li. Today there are over 30 female characters in the Street Fighter franchise and thousands of enthusiasts who dress like t..."
Capcom has solidified their Spring release schedule by handing out release dates to Lost Planet 2 (PS3, Xbox 360), Super Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360), Final Fight: Double Impact (PS3, Xbox 360) and Monster Hunter Tri (Wii).
""With Bayonetta strutting into stores this week, it's time to take a look at the toughest female characters gaming has provided gaming with over the years. We're talking ladies of steel; the kind that don't need to be suffering with hormonal pains to rip your head off. Gone is the insistent need to shop and the power to chat your body into a vacant boredom – these girls have far more pressing matters to get on with. By 'pressing,' we mean they are out saving the world or imprinting their high..."
Capcom's recent Super Street Fighter IV presentation wasn't all about the game. In a rather bizarre (or is that sexy?) display, a scantily-clad Juri cosplayer took to the stage and danced for the rapt audience, before posing for photos during the rest of Capcom's speech.
A Capcom representative jokingly said that the cosplayer was included in the show because "it's impossible to understand what's so awesome about Street Fighter without first dressing up a real woman in that outfit."
Wel...
Apparently Capcom's Q1 2010 release schedule was too crowded and in order to avoid having the games compete with each other (and other games) they've decided space to out the releases throughout the fiscal year. As a result of this, Super Street Fighter IV, Dead Rising 2, Lost Planet 2, and the North American release of Monster Hunter Tri have all been delayed. No concrete dates have been given but you can expect these titles to be released any time between April 2010 and March 2011.
"After much demand, we've finally wrangled up a gallery of the popular Cammy for this week's Cosplay Babe of the Week. Cammy is one of the most popular characters in the Street Fighter franchise. She originally appeared in Super Street Fighter II:The New Challengers, which was released in arcades in 1993."
Capcom's latest batch of Super Street Fighter IV screens show off some of the new stages that will appear in the game and the new characters in all their glory.
"Tyger! Tyger uppercut!
Tyger knee him in the gut.
What jump forward jab or fierce
Could brave this fearful Street Fighter?
What a find! Street Fighter and poetry usually go together like peanut butter and tobacco but we've found these awesome poems that were written with real poems in mind. For example, "Tyger Uppercut" is inspired by William Blake's "The Tyger".
There's also: Carrion Console (Gerard Manley Hopkins' "Carrion Comfort), Fight Song (John Berryman's "Dream Song 14"..."
"What I love about these summaries is that they look like sixteenth century puritans wrote them. I know that's not the ESRB's intent, but the attempts to appear clinical and unbiased makes the whole thing sound funnier. It also gives rise to brilliant phrases like "flexed gluteus." Check out the ESRB's sexy content selection:
Some of the female fighters' outfits are form-fitting and accentuate their breasts and buttocks; before battle, the camera occasionally zooms-out from close-up vie..."
"Following the release of new screenshots last week, Capcom Europe have presented an updated fact sheet for the forthcoming Super Street Fighter IV. An enhanced version of this year’s well received Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter IV will be released on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in early 2010."
"Following the leak of new information concerning new characters set to be included in the forthcoming Super Street Fighter IV earlier this week, Capcom Europe have today released new official screenshots for Guy, Cody and Adon. Super Street Fighter IV is due for a retail release early next year on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and is currently suggested to arrive at a budget price."
Once again Famitsu smashes another countdown reveal. It was mentioned earlier that a new character would be revealed for Super Street Fighter IV. According to Famitsu there's actually 3 of them. Adon, Cody, and Guy were last seen in Street Fighter Alpha 3 and are set to make a return to the series in the upcoming installment.
Capcom has confirmed that Deejay, T. Hawk, and newcomer, Juri, will be in Super Street Fighter IV. However, their Japanese blog is teasing another new character that will be added to the lineup. There's absolutely no word on whether it will be a completely new character like Juri or somebody from one of the other games in the series. All they have is a dissected picture of Chun-li receiving a pummeling at the hands of this unknown person. But they say that whoever it is, they will be revealed...
Capcom released a couple new vids yesterday, along with some images of Juri versus T.Hawk and DeeJay in the new Super Street Fighter IV. It was also announced that there bonus games and new modes. Anyway, check out the vids; screenshots of the new content at the source.
"The new details on Capcom’s forthcoming revision of the popular Street Fighter IV are arriving with considerable regularity of late, and the most recent trailer has revealed some of the additional gameplay modes that will return in Super Street Fighter IV. Set to launch early next year, Super Street Fighter IV will be available on Xbox 360 and PlayStation3."
"Super Street Fighter IV has Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix’s quarter match mode. It’s called endless battle in SSFIV and allows players to hang out in a room while two of them fight. The other six players watch eagerly awaiting their turn. The winner stays and the loser walks to the back of the virtual line.
Endless battle is one of four modes added to Super Street Fighter IV. Team battle, a clan mode-like system lets players take sides in group fights, and the replay channel are s..."

Character designs generally cycle through many variations until the development team are all satisfied with picking one of the many personalities. The newly introduced fighter to Super Street Fighter IV Juri is no exception to this outlook, as explained by art director Toshiyuki Kamei, the character went through some 400+ ideas. Some ideas included her being cute and chubby, an ice skater, even and old woman. How these ideas were thought up are beyond me, especially considering the team wante...
"Following the announcement of Super Street Fighter IV last week, Capcom have now confirmed that Deejay, originally features on Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers will join all new character Juri and fan favourite T. Hawk in the roster of additional fighters. Set for release in early 2010, this new edition of Street Fighter IV will be available on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3."
A boob story not by Miss Razz? What kinda science fiction year 3000 scenario is this?
Well anyway, it seems Capcom has "upgraded" Super Street Fighter IV newcomer Juri's bust size on their webpage -- amusing, to say the least.
The character has also been getting complaints for being too similar to Chun-Li with similar moves and fast kicks, but according to Capcom's Twitter, she "plays NOTHING like Chun-Li. It's like saying Fei Long plays like Ryu 'cause they both punch." We'd have to ag...
Well, you figured it was going, and lo and behold, it came true. Famitsu, along with many other media sites, has received media from Capcom for their newly announced fighting title Super Street Fighter IV, which will hit both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The two new characters introduced are series veteran T-Hawk and series newcomer and Tae Kwon Do practitioner Juri. Leaked scans from Famitsu also depict Dee Jay in the roster. New combos, rebalancing, a lobby system, and more new cha...
