Chaotic scenes from Capcom TV Early this morning, Capcom held itslatest Capcom TV live stream, in which we got our first proper glimpse at some newStreet Fighter 6characters in action. Clumsily strutting their stuff for the home audience were newcomers Marisa, Manon, and J.P. who joined series veterans Dhalsim, Dee Jay, and E. Honda for some impromptu slugfests. Now, without being mean, it must be said that these matches are hardly what you’d call “deep dive character showcases” — featuring a helluva lot of wild button mashing and endless jumping — but the matchesdogive us the opportunity to check out some of the incoming characters normals and specials, along with their respective intro animations, walkouts, win poses, and, perhaps most importantly of all, their “Game Face” options!...

Hey guys, So you might have noticedNinja Gaiden 3reviews have gone live around the Web. Where’s ours? What sinister filling of a devil taco is this? Well, Tecmo Koei has decided in its wisdom that whatNinja Gaiden 3really needed was an online pass. An online pass that doesn’t work yet. Sometimes, online passes are activated earlier, allowing one to play with all the leakers, date-breakers, and other reviewers. Unfortunately, the pass forNG3doesn’t work until Tuesday, so we have to wait until launch for the multiplayer....

But we also have the fantastic13 Sentinels: Aegis Rimport, as well asThe House of the Dead RemakeandDon’t Starve Together(which launches on April 12). “What’s old is new again” is the theme of the week. Although it’s skewing toward “RPG” as the genre of the week, a tried and true survival game with a multiplayer tint and a revival of a classic light gun game can definitely be considered “variety....

If you were going to levy a complaint at the DS it might be that the games on it aren’t that in depth, mature or serious. Yes, the fantastic little handheld has games that fit that description, but it’s fair to say that they aren’t its bread a butter. Nintendo wants to change this with their upcoming 3DS as company president Satoru Iwata has readily admitted. In an interview he did with Japanese news serviceNikkeiIwata explained that Nintendo wanted to “expand into elaborate games targeting serious gamers....

Warning: contains mild spoilers In just over a month,Persona 5will grace those lucky future folk over in Japan. School will be skipped, Famitsu will be 100/100’ing, and socials will be linked. Unfortunately, as my understanding of the Japanese language doesn’t reach much further beyond “Yes.”, “Hello.”, “Big brother.”, “Demon.”, “Idiot!”, and “Boobs.”, by extension, my understanding of the story inPersona 5will be rather limited even if there comes to be a story arc involving a formal demon with large boobs and a brash older brother....

Why would people want to avoid someone who likes social justice? Why is being a “white knight” suddenly considered a bad thing?...
