    Portal Gun Evens the Odds in Street Fighter

    Monday, May 21, 2012, 12:32 PM [General]
    Posted By: GregaMan

    (Via Kotaku)

    When Street Fighter characters get their hands on the gun from Portal--you know, the one that lets you make portals--hilarity and unfairness ensue! I, for one, would be mad salty if placed on the receiving end in any of the following scenarios (after the jump). Warning: Contains graphic comical gore.

    Check out The Pixel Kingdom channel on YouTube for more funny animations featuring games we all know and love. The channel promises new vids every other Friday!

    Vergil, Proto Man earn Capcom two spots on Best Brotherly Rivalries list

    Friday, May 18, 2012, 2:17 PM [General]
    Posted By: Brelston

    You can choose your enemies, you can choose your friends, but your family? You've gotta work with what you've got. And in the case of Mega Man and Dante, they have some... interesting issues to work out with their siblings, enough to earn them spots on GamesRadar's "Best Brotherly Rivalries" list.

    While both bros have had their differences, you gotta admit the Dante/Vergil rivalry has a lot more teeth than Mega and Proto Man. The former have some pretty mean spirited scraps and barely get along most of the time (or are outright fighting each other), while Proto Man eventually cools off and becomes an anti-hero of sorts.

    Which band of brothers do you think owned the biggest rivalry?

    Homemade SF cabinet gets homemade marquee art

    Thursday, May 17, 2012, 4:45 PM [General]
    Posted By: Brelston

    Maybe it's because of all the time I spent in arcades back in the day, but the sight of a cabinet in someone's home still tickles a special part of my brain. Doubly so if it's a custom creation with one-of-a-kind art, lovingly created out of pure fandom. Such is the case with this unique marquee art that features weirdo versions of the classic Super SFII cast.

    The full tale of its creation can be read here, on Jess Worby's blog. It's a pretty cool look, one that reminds of the intentionally warped animation you'd see on Liquid Television or, for a more relatable reference, Beavis & Butt-Head.

    Anyone else have arcade cabinets in their home, be they official or custom built? Send me a PM and I'll get 'em on Unity!

    Street Fighter X Tekken PC stream at 4pm, EA Origin codes in the mix

    Monday, May 14, 2012, 5:32 PM [General]
    Posted By: Brelston

    Coming up in just a few minutes you'll have a chance to grab a SFxT PC code as we jump into the Ranked Match pool (Minish Capcom on GFWL). Follow along at Twitch TV and try to nab one of the codes as they appear!

    I've also received this update on the PC version, as there were some issues that arose over the launch weekend:

    For the PC version of Street Fighter x Tekken, we have been keeping track of the issues that have popped up since launch.  We wanted to assure you guys that the team is already hard at work on the first patch, and that many more are coming.  All the same fixes that came to the console version (for example, improvements to the online gameplay, and a fix for the online sound issues) will also be coming to the PC version. We’ll let you know as soon as these patches are ready to go live, so please keep checking back for more information!

    Watch the stream here, or, if you want a chance to win, watch on our Twitch TV over yonder. Can the internet even have an "over yonder?" Isn't that more of a physical distance thing? Why am I answering a question I asked myself?

    Got questions about the game? Check out the FAQ after the jump, or head over to the FAQ thread

    ======================

    Q: What’s different from the console versions?

    A: Basically nothing in terms of content, beyond the PC specific things we’ve added (support for different resolutions, full screen mode, keyboard support, a benchmark tool, etc.).


    Q: How will it run on my rig (min specs/recommended specs)?

    Minspec (at 800x600 resolution @ 30FPS):

    • OS: Windows XP
    • HDD: 10GB of free space (or more)
    • CPU: Intel Dual Core 1.8GHz (or higher) or AMD Athlon II X2 (or higher)
    • RAM: 1GB (or higher)
    • Video Card:
      • DirectX 9.0c/Shader3.0 or higher compatible

      • Sound: DirectSound compatible, DirectX 9.0c (or higher) compatible
      • Input Devices: Mouse, Keyboard

    Recommended (at 1280x720 resolution @ 60FPS):

    Q: Are there any special DirectX10/DirectX11 upgrades that make it different from the console version?

    A: Nope.


    Q: How will DLC work? Will it be “on the disc?” What’s the schedule that DLC will be rolled out by? Will all of the console DLC make it to PC? 

    A: DLC will not be distributed on the disc. Patches will be distributed that will add the content for all users as we finalize it on PC. The content will be patched in to everyone for free, but the paid stuff will initially be locked.  In order to use it, you will have to purchase an unlock key.


    Q: What sort of DRM is there and what are the limitations when I’m playing offline (if any)? 

    A: GFWL copy protection / online key activation (one time). No DRM beyond that.


    Q: What are the options? What resolutions does it run at? How high does it go?

    A: It supports all the same resolutions as SSFIV:AE PC. ::UPDATE:: There is reportedly no high resolution limit. The lowest res is 640x480, but the game has unlocked aspect ratios. 


     Q: Is there a benchmark like the other games? Are its results used in the match making process?

    A: Yes, and yes.

    Q: Does it support Stereoscopic 3D like prior games? If so, what type (presumably Nvidia 3D Vision)?

    A: Yes, it supports NVidia 3D vision.

    Q: What controllers will it support as compared to past games? What’s changed/improved on that front from SSFIV:AE PC?

    A: We support all the controllers SSFIV:AE PC supported, plus about a billion more J  In general, controller support should be vastly improved from previous products.

    Q: Is there a physical disc release? (in North/South America, no… in Europe, yes).

    A: Only in Europe, and in some parts of Asia.
