    Tekken 6 Coming To Xbox 360

    During his keynote at the 2008 Tokyo Game Show, Microsoft's John Schappert announced that beloved fighting franchise Tekken would be making the leap to the Xbox 360 in 2009 with Tekken 6. The Xbox 360 version will feature the Bloodline Rebellion update that recently went live in Japanese arcades, which introduces two new characters, Alisa Boskonovich and Lars Alexanderson. This marks the first time the series has appeared outside of a Sony, and while it isn't an exclusive, Tekken 6 with Xbox Live multiplayer is a major boon for 360 owners around the world. Look for it next fall.

    Live Action Dragon Ball Trailer Successfully Fails

    Someone at the Brand Licensing Expo Europe 2008 managed to catch this cam footage of somewhat less-than-eagerly anticipated film adaptation of the popular manga/anime/video game series Dragon Ball. As was expected, it looks relatively hideous, from Chow Yun-Fat's hideous costume to James Marsters reprising his role as Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Spike, who in turn tries to portray Lord Piccolo. Don't worry about the sound, there is none in this early preview trailer. Somehow I think we're better for it. More »

    Battle Fantasia Coming To Europe, Bunny Wizard Intact

    Battle Fantasia, Guilty Gear developer Arc System Works new fighting game, previously announced for North American release, has now been penciled in for a Q1 2009 release in Europe for the Xbox 360 and PS3 courtesy of 505 Games. It's a finely-tuned, RPG -style fighter with characters designed by Guilty Gear's own Emiko Iwasaki. None of this is important. What is important is that there is a bunny rabbit dressed up as a wizard. Named Watson. I am going to buy this game, then build a time machine and go back in time to buy it again for no reason.

    THQ Takes On Ultimate Fighting Championship

    After years spent perfecting the more theatrical side of arena fighting, THQ is ready to step up to something a bit more brutal. Today they've announced their first title based on the Ultimate Fighting Championship license, UFC 2009 Undisputed. In development for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Undisputed will feature an entirely new game engine to help bring more than 80 of the top UFC fighters to life, along with a robust create-a-fighter mode so you can watch yourself get beaten to a pulp by thugs.

    Midway Gamer's Day '08: This Is Vegas

    What more appropriate setting to see the premier of Midway's This Is Vegas than Vegas itself? True, were a fifty dollar cab ride from the strip, but we got to see it virtually in the game so I suppose that's something. This Is Vegas is a balls out parody done in the tongue in cheek GTA/Bully style. Your character can explore all the parties, gambling, driving and fighting that Vegas has to offer. On display for the Gamer's Day were the fighting, partying and gambling mechanics which we checked out poolside in true Vegas style. More »

    Triumphant Arcana Heart Screens

    Remember that super move I kept trying to pull off in the Arcana Heart video I posted the other day? Where I fail, the screenshot folks for Atlus succeed. Behold the glory of the puppy girl pile-on, as well as several other scenes from the upcoming PlayStation 2 fighter that I could never have dreamed to achieve with my mediocre skills. I've actually playing the game a little bit each day to improve my game, and I'd say that by the time it hits store shelves in April I will still have no chance at beating anyone, but I might be a bit more cocky about it nonetheless.

    An Arcana Heart-Breaking Defeat

    Arcana Heart is a new 2D fighting game coming April 8th for the PlayStation 2 courtesy of Atlus. Developed by Examu - formerly Yuki Enterprise of Samurai Showdown V fame - the game features a cast of adorable female anime archetypes beating each other senseless, with a twist. Players select a character and then select an Arcana, which is an elemental being that grants the character special abilities and super moves depending on which is chosen. Atlus sent me an early copy of the game, which as you can see I have hardly managed to master. In my defense, this video was plagued by interruptions, and I won in every take except this one. Rather that redo it to show myself in a more flattering light, I decided to let you witness just how badly I can fail. Look for a more complete look at the game as we get closer to the April release. For now, please be gentle.

    Godzilla: Unleashed's Mothership

    Pipeworks producer Shelby Wills says hey, everybody. She also introduces one of the many levels that you'll be able to unlock in Godzilla:Unleashed for the Wii and PS2. The mothership is in pretty bad shape this time around, having crash-landed in San Francisco Bay at some point during story mode. If you ask me it isn't nearly as interesting in the floating, uprooted version of London in the game, but that's just because aliens are real and London is an imaginary place. Now had they mixed the two and done The Parliament Funkadelic Mothership, then I would have been the first person in line for the game. Missed opportunities *sighs*.

    EA Confirms EA Chicago is Closing

    EA Chicago has gone down for the count. I can exclusively report that EA is closing the studio effective immediately. Word is that EA is working hard to place many of the 150+ employees at its other studios around the world. What does this mean for the future of the Def Jam fighting franchise and the forthcoming Marvel fighting game? I'm still looking into that, but it sure seems like those games won't be coming anytime soon. More »

    Naruto: Rise Of The Ninja Stealthily Rocks

    There I was, standing in the middle of GameStop yesterday, holding a copy of TimeShift in one hand and a copy of Ubisoft's Naruto: Rise of the Ninja in the other. I only had $60 to spend, and the cashier behind the counter kept chanting, "TimeShift...TimeShift.." over and over again in a monotone voice. On the one hand I had been waiting for TimeShift for over two years. On the other, my nephew might come over this weekend and he loves him some Naruto. Having kicked a Frag Doll's ass at the game earlier this year, and being a good uncle, I had to go with Naruto. To my surprise, it turned out to be one of the best purchasing decisions I've made in quite some time. More »

    Dipping My Hands In Bleach

    Quite honestly I have no idea why I picked up Bleach: Shattered Blade for the Wii on Wednesday. I am not familiar with the manga or anime series at all, having been turned off after working Anime Weekend Atlanta last year and being up to my ass in Bleach cosplayers. I suppose I was just hopeful after Dragon Ball Z's excellent Wii debut and my love of the Naruto fighter series for the Gamecube. As you might be able to tell from the video above, I was in for a bit of a let down. The Wii controls for the sequel to Japan's Bleach GC: Tasogare ni Mamieru Shinigami make the game ridiculously easy. Mind you i was playing on normal mode...in hard mode the enemy AI actually fights back. I suppose in easy mode they simply surrender before the fight begins. More »

    First Look At EA's Marvel Fighter Tonight On Game Head

    Can EA Chicago's Marvel Comics character fighting game succeed where Rise of the Imperfects failed? Tonight we'll get a chance to start forming an opinion on that matter as Spike TV's Game Head runs a special segment tonight featuring the world's first look at the game.
    Smash! Boom! Plat! It's another huge Game Head World Exclusive! Tonight, EA Chicago pulls back the curtains on its new Marvel Fighting Game for the first time anywhere. See Juggernaut versus Captain America and so much more! And watch as EA puts Game Head host Geoff Keighley right in the middle of the action. From the team behind the Def Jam and Fight Night titles, EA Chicago brings massive destruction and whole hearted fun to the next generation.
    Apparently they've put Keighley into the game, complete with facial mapping and voice overs. Completely not fair. Where's my custom Crecente character that an summon birds from his clothing? Hit up Spike TV's website for scheduled times near you.

    Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 Hands On

    You might recall that I really enjoyed Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 for the Nintendo Wii back when it launched with the system last November. There were a few minor annoyances with the game, such as having to keep your Wiimote pointed at the screen at all times, but for the most part it was an excellent fighting experience for the fledgling system, whether or not you like DBZ (I don't.) Here at E3 I managed to get some hands-on time with the next iteration of the series for the Wii, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, and it looks to improve on the last game in nearly every way, while adding a first for DBZ console games...online play.
