Seth and I were down in LA a few weeks back for a combination Spike TV Video Game Awards attendence/G4 appearance trip. While we were hanging with the fun crew at G4, I noticed a group of cool robots shoved in a corner. Abbie told me that they had originally been created for Attack of the Show, but had been languishing alone and lonely for some time. In an effort to make the most furious looking of the robots feel better about himself, I added a jaunty Street Fighter IV headband to his dome. While this isn't as cool as giving Bungie's own Master Chief statue some SFIV color, you have to admit that it does set off his chasis nicely.

Ars Technica has an article up about rebooting classic franchises called "Everything Old Is New Again," and to no one's surprise, the majority of the article focuses on Capcom's slew of titles from the past year, including Bionic Commando: Rearmed, 1942 and Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Ars Technica speaks with Capcom's creative director Kraig Kujawa (ProTip: the "J" is silent!) about all the goings-on this past year, including the thought-process behind picking particular games and/or franchises, pleasing all you hardk0r3 fanb0is and managing difficulty levels. It's an interesting read, so quit dilly-dallying and click on this link, already.

Long-time Unity buddy Raymond Padilla has just joined the swelling ranks of G4 geniuses, which has entailed (yet another) move for him.

Merry/Happy! The Japanese website for Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li has posted a trailer for the upcoming flick. Witness Kristen Kreuk flip-kicking baddies and catching a sword between her palms, Michael Clarke Duncan smashing fools, a little Vega action and the barest hint of a hadouken.I'd drop the trailer here, but there's no easy embed code to snatch and I am quite bad at this whole internet thing. Instead, head over to the site and watch it yerself!
