Finished it earlier and it was a fun romp. Drags a bit in the middle, but it is silly and entertaining overall. Glad to see Rashid was such a big part of the story (easily my favorite of the new characters) and F.A.N.G. steals every scene he is in :D

Considering that Steam takes 30% of the sale of a price of a game for themselves, I am not surprised big publishers like MS want to use their own store fronts. They have the infrastructure to do it themselves, so why throw 30% of a game sale away to feed Gabe Newell’s lazy ass?

Blizzard should just permanently mark all accounts using cheats and only match them against each other. Send them to cheat island.

There are online services that will produce figurines of your World of Warcraft characters by pulling data from online character sheets.

That doesn't help. It's an extra button to fiddle with and you still can't see what's around you.

It's gimmicky, but it actually adds some nice tactile feedback for certain games (brakes locking up in racers, subtle gun recoil) and doesn't invite awkward game design.

The gyro aiming in Splatoon works because you use it while still having your eyes on the main screen.

I’m sure Box Boy will come over, the localization work for that one is minimal.

They specifically made Nash a charge character to differentiate him from Guile when it comes to playstyle.

That’s because Capcom actually individually animates every single character fully instead of carbon copying animations like MK does.

If you’re looking for a solid single player experience, the game is still not quite there.

16 actually varied decently balanced characters is vastly better than 50 characters where half are variations of one another, a third is so low tier you can forget about playing them except for funsies and 4-5 are so OP everyone plays those anyway.

Hey, I’ve been gagging for a closer look at that DADDYBEAR’s crotch since the early ‘90s :p

Probably not the only one, but in matches the game is so dynamic, you hardly notice the banana hair. And not wasting GPU cycles on animating full real time hair makes the game run that much smoother.

They aren’t mods, they are datamined outfits. You can’t pick them in the game yet (because the store isn’t implemented until tomorrow), but what the guy did is swap the new costume file (from Monday’s patch update) with the default one, so his offline PC SF5 client shows the new costume instead.

You will also be able to buy the Alpha look for 40k Fight Money once the March 30th update goes live (if you have finished Ken’s story prologue).

These are presumably premium costumes, joining the “Battle Costumes” for Ryu, Chun Li, Dictator, and Cammy that were parcelled out for pre-order bonuses.

Since we don’t have a date for Rez Infinite yet I haven’t pre-ordered yet, but once that game is out, I’m getting the VR even if only for that one game.

Because I have been happily playing Street Fighter 5 in its current state all the time since it came out (minus the server issues the first few days). I’ve already spent more time in survival, training, and online in SFV than I ever spent in SF4's Arcade mode.

Or you mean delay a game by 6 months even though a couple of hundred thousand hardcore fans would be fine getting the main game now and the story later?
