by Rip

Our friends over at MadCatz sent over a couple of the Tournament Edition 2 Arcade Fightsticks for us to giveaway as part of our 5 year celebration!

Razer Atrox Arcade Stick Has A Release Date

by Rip

After Razer’s sponsored players like Fuudo and Latif have been using/testing the new Razer Atrox stick for what seems like years now, the product is finally coming to retail. Only for Xbox 360 the full feature list isn’t too different from what we’ve seen from other manufacturers, but it does come with a screwdriver! The USB cable is also detachable and the stick is designed for easy modding with an interchangeable top panel. Check it out at razerzone.com/atrox where you can pre-order it now for $199 before its June 2013 release.

Injustice – Official Release Date, Collectors Edition, & Battle Edition Revealed!

by Rip

Injustice:Gods Among Us, the upcoming fighting game from the makers of Mortal Kombat 9 has an official released date – April 16th! The Collectors Edition comes with a cool statue of Batman getting owned up by Wonder Woman. The Battle Edition comes with a brand new arcade stick with a design that looks similar to Batman’s armor (UPDATE: Battle Edition only available for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, not for the WiiU). Going with the bat theme, the stick is also a BAT top! No word yet on what part is within the stick, but my guess is that its PDP / AGE. Check out the screens and info about the digital comic after the jump:
