Bogus Journeys – Tekken 6 – USA WCG Champ vs Aris – Part 1

by Rip

What happens when you take one of the most die-hard offline/arcade players, put them up against the 2011 USA WCG Online champion, throw in Steve Scott – and leave everything uncut and uncensored.. FIND OUT BELOW! For those of you who don’t know – WCG USA 2011 was a total fail – the entire tournament was online and there was no offline finals. I thought it would be interesting to see what would happen in a long set (first to 10) between an online veteran and an offline veteran. The results may surprise you..

Algol and Edge Master Confirmed For Soul Calibur 5 – Tekken Customizations Included As Well

by Rip

Famitsu has confirmed that Algol and Edge Master will return in Soul Calibur 5. I like how the oldest dude in Soul Calibur makes his return in Soul Calibur 5 where there is a big jump in time. Always cool to see characters return though. I expect there will be a lot of character reveals incoming as we lead up to the release of the game at the end of January.

Separately, they also have shown customizations that allow your character to look like Harada/Heihachi, but also to have DevilJin/Devil Kazuya moves (ewgf, tgf throw, laser throw?). Pretty neat, more pictures after the jump

Chun Li / Cammy vs Lili / Asuka – Capcom knows how to slowly tease their fan base. Now reveal Law / Paul!!! I want to Pandora deathfist somebody! Gameplay after the jump – Looks like her cross art might start from a counter

More Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Glitches – Courtesy of KYSG GuC11

by Rip

Slowly but surely there has been an increase in findings of glitchy behavior in Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Prologue (see previous glitches). This time around, GuC11 share’s his findings in one short video. Its unknown at this point whether these glitches occur only within Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Prologue or if they are present in the arcade version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 as well. On the bright side, none of these are particularly game breaking…yet? Hopefully Namco is looking at these and patching accordingly!
