The top 8 was filled with 6 Japanese players, 1 US player (Punk), and 1 Taiwanese player (OilKing). Fans and players hoping for a turnaround from the US and Taiwanese representative during the top 8 were sorely disa...

Every set went to the final game; that was how nail-biting this particular Capcom Cup tournament was. Even if some of us aren't feeling the game, it did produce some stellar matches. Here's the full t...

Street Fighter V's eventual fourth season is coming. But did you know that there's allegedly going to be another huge 2019 update called Super Street Fighter V? So much for innovative naming schemes, eh Capcom? In any case, prominent leaker X-Kira (via Eventhubs) did the usual datamining and found out that the update is slated for December 2019. H...

Panda Global announced recently that Seonwoo "Infiltration" Lee will not be fighting at this weekend's Capcom Pro Tour Premier event at Tokyo Game Show 2018. Why? Because there's an investigation going on about him beating his then-wife physically. Allegations of it, at least. They divorced a few months after their 2017 marriage. Here's the offic...
Yes, it's a little too early for a Kakuchopurei Talk Cock Sing Song episode, but we couldn't resist.
