Young grasshopper, listen to me and listen well. In life, there must be balance. Yin and Yang. Good and evil. Pepsi and Coca Cola. Without the other, the cosmos is thrown into disarray. And you can bet your noob ass my apprentice that Ultra Street Fighter 4 is going to once again balance the scales.
Capcom has released the following videos, explaining the tweaks and changes to your favourite fighters. And Dan Hibiki. It might sound boring, but I always find this stuff to be genuinely interesting, in terms of one on one competition.
When Street Fighter IV first came out, Sagat dominated in tournaments, until a later update and Super Street Fighter IV took out some of the sting from his various Tiger combos. And it’s changes like that, that really determine the skill of a player in the long-run.
Anyway, enough gabbing, more video:
Balrog
T-Hawk
Dan Hibiki
Makoto
C Viper
Yang
Gouken
Ryu
Evil Ryu
M Bison
Cammy
Blanka
Ultra Street Fighter 4 drops next month, as a digital upgrade on PlayStation 3 on June 3, before heading to Xbox 360 on June 5. It’ll be available as a standalone retail game on August 5. Don’t have Street Fighter 4, or want to wait until August for it?
Well good news then, because if you’re Xbox 360, the Arcade Edition of Street Fighter IV is a freebie if you happen to have a Gold account.

I want to upgrade my current version but they’ll probably release a new version 3 months later.

That is not cosplay. That is a screen grab from the sextape he made of himself. That is his O-face! (Or so I heard from my sources…)

I’m actually considering making that suit for next year. Or for the Jehova’s Witnesses who won’t leave me alone.

Two birds with one stone! Although you should probably make sure they’re JWs & not Scientologists if you’re going to dress like a space pirate. Next thing you know they’re camped out on your lawn like in Life of Brian.

Yeah but the upcoming exams are worrying, especially since I’m not sure when they are…

Oh, you’re studying at a technikon aren’t you? They used to do that all the time. Find out the dates you’re writing a week or two before the exam period. Good thing I never really studied or I’d have been worried.
