I do love me some 3D weapons-based fighting, even if I recently do not have time to do so. Which means whenever there's an opportunity to see high-level play or hear about top tier stuff from our neck of the woods, I usually just tune out to whatever I'm supposed to be doing and focus on that. Fighting game YouTube content creator Offcast did a sh...

Just recently, Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition saw an improvement in its matchmaking and online play. It was a bit vague on the process, but Capcom cleared the air with some detailed explanation.

There's always something sublime about having a fighting game return to form while also injecting something new in a competitive scene. The 2019 version of Samurai Shodown does just that with a ton of swordplay and with raw power. What it lacks in esports tailoring and flair -like with Street Fighter V and Tekken 7 these days- it makes up for it b...

With the way Capcom has been using Darkstalkers/Vampire characters like Morrigan and Felicia in other Capcom titles (ie Teppen, MvC) because of their....er.....hand-drawn features, it's rather strange that they're not thinking of doing an all-new  Darkstalkers game.
