A Street Fighter Series That Might Not Suck

Aside from a few decent anime movies, Street Fighter’s theatrical history is one to forget. Good thing this isn’t a movie, then. Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist is an upcoming webseries that’ll run on Machinima, which is a “coming of age” story about Ryu and Ken. Sure, there’s a certain degree of corny you can’t escape…

Fight Amidst Dinosaurs In Ultra Street Fighter IV

Two new videos have been released for Ultra Street Fighter IV, which was just released in Japanese arcades, and will be available for home consoles this summer. See the opening cinematic and a lengthy gameplay video below. My favorite stage—the Jurassic Era Research Facility, is prominently featured. Opening Cinematic: Four and a half minutes of…

Someone Wrote A Book About Street Fighter‘s Greatest Match

It’s been ten years since the greatest comeback in competitive video games happened. In the decade since Daigo Umehara and Justin Wong met in a fateful match of Street Fighter III: Third Strike, EVO Moment 37 has become the stuff of legend. Now there’s a book about it. The myriad low-res videos that capture their…

A Game For Salty Fighters

Based on a recent act of fight stick destruction, Stick Chucker doesn’t care if you win or lose a game of Street Fighter. It only cares how far, and how hard, you can throw your stick once you lose. Come for the free game, stay for the awesome soundtrack, which for $1 is totally worth…

Street Fighter‘s Ken Cut From The Tournament For Obvious Reasons

With Ryu making the roster despite serious translation issues, there’s absolutely no use for Ken in Pete Holmes’ Street Fighter tournament. Dhalsim‘s out. Vega is out. Chun-Li has been creeped on and asked to put on pants. So far this is looking like a very Ryu-centric tournament Pete Holmes is putting together. I’m having a…

Breaking Bad Meets Street Fighter

British reader Junior, along with some friends, figured we’d like to see what would happen when Ryu fought Breaking Bad’s Jesse. Um, yes. Love those special moves. RYU VS JESSE (A Street Fighter-Breaking Bad tribute)[Vimeo]

Mike Tyson Finally Meets Street Fighter, Punches Dudes In The Face

Considering he had a character in the game – Balrog – based on him, it’s a wonder it’s taken someone this long to bring the worlds of Mike Tyson and Street Fighter together. It takes a while to warm up, but once he really starts swinging, it really gets going. Balrog Highlight (Mike Tyson Street…

Street Fighter II Characters Are Very Sorry for Screwing Up

What did Ryu do? Why is he grovelling? Because of a new series of collectible figurines. As noted by Twitter user Bruce Hsiang, the series is called “Dogeza Strap” (土下座ストラップ), and the straps are for your smartphone or portable game devices. “Dogeza” (土下座) is a type of bowing that’s typically reserved for bowing before incredibly…

Street Fighter‘s Dhalsim Should Lose Those Baby Skulls

In the real world, Dhalsim would have been arrested a long time ago with those skulls around his neck, as the latest Pete Holmes ‘Red Tape’ sketch points out. I hope there’ll be a video with a raging Blanka, because so far these sketches put every single Street Fighter character to shame. Street Fighter Red…

Seven Things You Might Not Know About Street Fighter

Now that we know who the final character in the upcoming Ultra Street Fighter IV is, it seems like a great time to look back on the franchise. Since the franchise is almost 27 years old (!), there’s a ton of trivia to reminisce about. This video by DYKGaming is jam packed with all sorts…

Who Should Have Been Street Fighter’s Latest Character?

You can’t please everyone, especially on the internet, so the people at OutsideXbox have offered up 9 suggestions for characters that should have been the latest addition to Ultra Street Fighter IV, instead of “Cammy with a mask”. I’m not a big Street Fighter fan, so I didn’t have any strong feelings on this issue……

Fan art of the newly revealed Street Fighter character Decapre

The Newest Street Fighter Character Is…

The fifth and final new fighter to be added to the upcoming Ultra Street Fighter IV will be Decapre. She’s new, while also being not new. It’s weird. She’s not a new character, having first appeared briefly in Street Fighter Alpha 3 as an NPC (which you can see in the intro to the video…

Interviewing Chun-Li is Awkward

Criticising Chun-Li’s outfit is probably not the way one should start an interview with her. But here’s Pete Holmes, making every possible mistake in the next installment of his Street Fighter series. He’s lucky he got away with it without getting Lightning kicked in the face. And that his subject wasn’t Cammy. Street Fighter Red…

Vega From Street Fighter is Useless Without His Claw

Pete Holmes is back with his latest series, portraying characters from Street Fighter as complete idiots, and this time it’s Vega’s turn. I didn’t know he was such a cry-baby! Street Fighter Red Tape: Vega [Pete Holmes, YouTube] To contact the author of this post, write to: [email protected]
