Get Ready to OBJECT! with Phoenix Wright on your iOS or Android Device Soon
I love how crazy the Japanese video game industry can be when it wants to. Granted they may not be as able to pull off a cinematic, Hollwood-blockbuster of a game as the West has been in recent memory (though opinions may vary), but if you want something as left-field as an imagination can possibly take you, then there’s no...
Button Mashing w/ Niyeaux: The Capcom Versus Series (Part 1)
For the last decade and a half, Capcom has had an unusual obsession. Embedded somewhere deep in their corporate identity is the desire to see the characters they have created pitted against characters created by…everyone else. Over the years, this has blossomed into one of the most unique franchises in gaming history: the Capcom Versus series. Spanning over a dozen...
Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures available for free over DSi and 3DS E-Shop!
While in its current 25th anniversary, the Legend of Zelda series has become busier than ever this year. One of the littler announcements within this buzz was the plan for a DSi and 3DS re-release of Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary, which didn’t have too much light shown on its contents.

At the ongoing Tokyo Game Show, Namco’s been telling the world just how much Tekken is coming to the world at the moment, and it’s more than plenty to tide fans over.

Third Strike: The Resurrection
In the summer of 2006, while working a temp job at Electronic Arts, I was introduced to the world of Street Fighter III: Third Strike. This is the game most people are familiar with only through EVO Moment #37, as it failed to receive the commercial success of its predecessor. Late to the party as I was (Third Strike was released...
New DmC Gameplay Inspires Tears of Joy!
I can’t begin to think of another huge Japanese franchise that deserves a reboot more than the Devil May Cry series. Dante has grown stale and the hype surrounding the lore and kick-ass-ness has dwindled. fortunately for us, Capcom is giving us what we’ve wanted for so long, NEW DmC! In this fresh, exciting and new take on the series,...
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Announced…and Leaking
One of the popular fighting games at the moment, Marvel vs Capcom 3, was promised to get a mass of DLC for a long time. Instead, just like Street Fighter IV before it, Capcom chose to release a sequel (or retail update). Thus, we have the announcement of Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, which is planned to update the roster...
Mega Man Legends gets canned, Blue Bombers future looks Hazy
It seems like Mega Man is no longer the mascot character that it used to be for Capcom. Mega Man Universe, a 2.5D side scrolling action game that put emphasis on customizing and sharing your own levels, was cancelled a year into it’s development. With the news of Mega Man Legends 3 being suddenly cancelled, you have to wonder what...
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D [GB Review]
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D is a bit of a surprise. The surprise being that it’s the first time that this fabled mini-game from Resident Evil 4 and 5 is now on it’s own as a full priced 3DS game. You may find yourself a little concerned, wondering how Mercenaries 3D is capable of standing up all by itself. Is...
