The College of New Jersey knows what's up: they actually allowed artists to create a collection of videogame-based chalk mural's, including the Mega Man that you see above. It's not a brick wall made to look like Mega Man, but it's still pretty cool.

The folks over at the Dark Void community site have one more video to show off before the weekend. This time, they're showing off the mixed combat in the game:
Dark Void provides everything that makes a game epic: insane bosses, deep characters, sweet arsenal of weaponry, engaging story line and ... an awesome combat system! Not only do you get to fight Watchers on land, you can do it in the air, off the side of cliffs, hanging off Watcher dropships ... well, you get the idea. It's not only about how many different places you get to reign down utter doom, it's also about the methods you use to bring the pain!
As you may have heard, we recently held a huge event for Monster Hunter Tri in the form of Monster Hunter Tri University in San Francisco. We invited you folks- the members of Capcom Unity- and the press for some MH learnin'.
Ron was on hand at the event and wrote up a nice blog about his experience that includes tons of pictures and videos.
Keep an eye on Unity for any future community events and thanks to everyone that showed up for Monster Hunter Tri University!
In a surprise to nobody, I'll be playing me some SFIV this weekend. Wes and I are headed south to sunny Sunnyvale CA this weekend for the long-running NorCal Regionals. I'm going to see some old friends, some hot SFIV action, and of course to have my skull cracked. I'll be tagging in on the event's live stream as well, so be sure to mute your speakers to avoid being lulled gently to sleep.
I posted about this before, but I'm posting again mostly because I find their poster extremely cool, and it wasn't done in time for the last post. If you're in the area, be sure to stop by, or better yet, sign up and play.
If you're not in the SF Bay Area, there are also other great events around the US and the world all the time--you can find a good listing here.
We're playing Monster Hunter on adhocParty right now! See the details on where to meet up with us right here, or watch the live UStream of us hunting above!
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo is one of our most beloved games. When we released Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix as a downloadable title we all remembered what a blast it was to play. We couldn't get enough of it here in the office, smack talk reverberating throughout the 3rd floor. We still love it and hope to get a few games in today!
In loving tribute the Capcom Store offers up this week's Deal Of the Week. Not one, not two, not even three, but four Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo bags to carry all your stuff. These popular tote and messenger bags have been sold out everywhere for some time now. The Capcom Store has them and I'm offering them at incredible Deal Of the Week prices.
Next week I'll be skipping the Deal Of the Week but don't despair. Instead I'll have a 4 day Black Friday through Cyber Monday deal you won't want to miss.
The Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo tote and messenger bags will go back to their everyday low price next Friday so don't wait. They make great gifts!
Challenge Quest09 for Monster Hunter Freedom Unite is live for your downloading pleasure. There's a whole pack of Velociprey just waiting to be slain. Easy right? Well, not exactly... There's something a tad bigger, faster, and meaner than Velociprey in the arena. I won't spoil it for you, so go download the quest, and be sure to get your stamina maxed out since you'll be running for your life most of this quest.
Challenge Quest09
"I've got a special quest for you today! Your target: the pack of Velociprey waiting for you at the Great Arena. But! Those guys are small compared to the other monster that awaits!"
Monsters: 50 Velociprey
Area: Great Arena (Day)
Rank: Upper Class (HR 7 Or Above Only)
Reward: 12,000z
Yuffie's MHFU DLC thread in the forums has all the previous quests and stuff you might have missed out on, so go read up on it. And don't forget that we're playing some Monster Hunter today with you on adhocParty.
With adhocParty out on the PS3, it's time to load up Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on the PSP and start some hunting parties. We'll be doing just that today at around 3:00pm PST. Look for PSN ID: "Snow_Infernus" in adhocParty room A8. The game will also be streaming live via our UStream PAC Channel, so tune in around 3 for some hunting goodness.
Hope you've all been keeping up with your assignments! We're getting close to the end of REmake and this assignment will take you 3/4 of the way through the game.
Assignment #3
Play all the way through until you get to the lab by using the wolf and eagle medals. (Just after a major boss fight).
As incentive, I'll be randomly choosing a person that participates in our discussions to get some random RE swag (this will happen after the REmake game club is finished).
In addition, if you participate in our weekly discussions in the forums, you will get 20 Unity points for that week. If you send me a question via PM that we could use for our daily discussion questions, it will net you 75 Unity points!
This new vid has sneak peeks of the mysterious "Watchers" that Will is up against in Dark Void.
If you watch closely, you'll find a bunch of various Watcher types shown here, from giant-slug sized to... well, just GIANT. Dark Void lands 1/19/10, but you can preorder here right now.
