Roughly four minutes and 20 seconds is the answer, if it's Chun-Li doing most of the dirty work vs. Dante in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Whoever's playing as Chun-Li wings off another 24 hits to grow on after the combo meter hits 999, too. More »

Chun-Li Gets Her Own Game! Oh, It's Pachislot

Michael McWhertor — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 20:40:00 EDT

Street Fighter mainstay Chun-Li is getting her own pachislot game, courtesy of manufacturer Enterrise and it's... well, it's pachislot, so I'm genetically incapable of being excited about the prospect of such a thing. The game looks to feature Chun-Li in various mission-based situations, presumably all of which can be resolved by kicking fast or faster. Guest appearances from Rose, Cammy, Zangief, Guile and the car from Street Fighter III will be included in the cel-shaded slot machine that we're presuming is Japan only for now. More »

First Look At Kristin Kreuk As Chun-Li?

Michael McWhertor — Thu, 22 May 2008 18:40:57 EDT

Capcom of Japan released the above photo today from the in-production Street Fighter movie, giving us what appears to be our first, heavily artifacted glimpse of Kristin Kreuk as Chun-Li in Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. It's not the traditional blue outfit we're used to seeing Chun-Li sporting, but she has to put that thing in the wash sometime. Of course, Capcom may simply have a cache of photos of Kreuk looking dirty and disheveled for times like this, so consider this unconfirmed until we get confirmation from Capcom. More »
