Results: Skullgirls Fundraiser

By Leave a Comment

We recently ran a Skullgirls tournament where all proceeds went to “Keep Skullgirls Growing” and the winners got prizes instead of cash.

Our Contribution

With nine of our local guys entering at $10 a pop, we raised $90 which all went to “Keep Skullgirls Growing“. When we receive the perks from this donation they will be distributed among the winners of our tournament (in addition to the prizes they received already).

Marvel Vs Capcom 3 is out!

By Leave a Comment

MvC3 is out in full force! Basically until Singe showed up wanting to play super, EVERY TV at Skynet gaming was MvC3.

I must admit that despite my own dislike and ineptitude at vs games, and how broke I am, even I want to pick this up now (I am a sucker for She-Hulk). I had a really great time getting my butt kicked.

Let’s have a tourney for it! It’ll be good practice for the upcoming Michigan Masters 4!

Cody, Guy, and Adon Confirmed For Super Street Fighter IV: Ibuki Teased

By 3 Comments

Today Famitsu revealed three new additions to the Super Street Fighter IV roster: Guy and Cody from Final Fight, and Adon, from Street Fighter the first and the Alpha series. Expect to see all three wrecking fools in mind boggling 3D when the game releases this spring.

Counting the three previously confirmed characters (newcomer Juri plus T. Hawk and Deejay of SFII fame), six of the rumored ‘eight to ten’ characters have now been revealed. If rumors and Seth Kilian can be trusted, that leaves between two and four remaining characters to be announced… All of which should be Dudley from Street Fighter III. I’ll even tell you how it fits into the fiction: the car in the already revealed bonus stages? The one you beat up for ‘points’? That belonged to Dudley’s dad, and now you have to pay. Search your feelings: you know it to be true.

Note also that Guy is punching a kunai out of the air in his upper right hand screenshot: the kind of kunai that a certain less than totally dressed ninja girl from Street Fighter III has been known to toss around. The caption for the picture asks, “Who’s kunai is that?” Not Ryu’s, that’s for fucking certain. I’ll leave it at that and let you draw your own conclusions.

Pics below.
