And I've got a present for all of you HD Remix fans out there:  new gameplay footage!  And not just any footage - actual matches between me and Rey Jimenez (the producer on HD Remix). Enjoy:

The footage above was all captured from the open Beta, which went up on Xbox Live earlier today.  Get hype!  And get Wolf of the Battlefield:  Commando 3, ‘cause it's the only way to get in.

Rey, in addition to being an all around cool guy, is also pretty good.  He was a little handicapped during this play session, though, by the fact that his stick was accidentally shipped to New York (oops!).  So he was stuck playing on a pad.

That aside, if you look closely, there's some interesting things going on in these clips.  For example, the first one shows off the power of Ryu's new fake fireball, while the second one shows off Ken's improved fierce shoryuken.  The third clip holds the hint of a new trick (low forward xx fake fireball, throw), and the fifth clip shows Ken doing a reversal (gasp!) super.

I hope you guys enjoyed the video!  Don't be shy, let us know what you think.

Hey Guys!

It's a pleasure to meet you all.  I'm Derek, the new Senior Game Analyst over here at Capcom.  You might remember me from such films as SSF2T:HDR Combo Clips and Makoto:  I Did it for Daddy!.

I'm very excited to be working here at Capcom, and to have the chance to help make these great games even better.  As a long time tournament player and Street Fighter maniac, I'm hoping to join Seth in bringing you a slightly different perspective on these games.

So, I might pop up every now and again (when they let me out of the cage!) with a comment or a new video.  Looking forward to it!

Cheers,

Derek
