Dragon’s Dogma is an upcoming open-world, class-based fantasy action-adventure from Capcom - and though it’s not on many gamers’ radars at the moment, it really should be. Coming in May , it’s the brainchild of Hideaki Itsuno, the guy who’s been behind Devil May Cry since the second one, and also brought you Capcom vs SNK ... [»]
Man, I miss arcades. If you never huddled around a Street Fighter 2 cabinet, surrounded by complete strangers who would eventually become friends, vying for the next spot on the unofficial roster by placing your coin around the screen’s edge - thenyou’ve missed a special part of gaming history. Unfortunately, that bit of gaming is pretty much dead, with traditional arcade games making way for more kid-oriented ticket dispensing machines. It’s sad ... [»]
I’m terribly excited for Capcom’s and Namco’s crossover fighter, Street Fighter X Tekken which pits fighters from both game universes with a Street Fighter-esque game mechanic. It looks - and plays - incredibly well, striking a beautiful balance between the two, rather different fighting games. What I’m not so excited for is the game’s inevitable deluge of pointless, cash-sucking DLC. ... [»]
It’s one of Capcom’s very best franchises - but it’s one that hasn’t gotten a tremendous amount of love, especially here in South Africa. A series of adventure games based on the Japanese legal system and some rather…goofy trials…Ace Attorney (the first 3, anyway) follow the exploits of Phoenix Wright, rookie defence attorney. It appears he’s true to his moniker, as the three Ace Attorney games bearing his name are ... [»]
Capcom’s slightly mental Yoshinori Ono, the guy responsible for the Namco crossover Street Fighter X Tekken has his hands on new Wii U development kits from Nintendo - and he reckons that the new tablet-controlled console might just have an ace up its sleeve.Speaking to Spanish site 3d Juegos, translated by a neoGAF user, Ono said: "What was shown at E3 is not a reflection of everything that ...

Big game, big budget, and now, Resident Evil 6 has one of the largest staffs working on a single game possible. Hiroyuki Kobayashi, executive producer for Resident Evil 6 recently took to the interwebs to talk about this, detailing how the upcoming game has over 600 people working on the zombie-packed game at the moment.
It’s the largest ever crew to work on a Capcom ... [»]
It’s been a while since we’ve stepped into the shoes of an angry god, and with Sony keeping mum on when Kratos will reappear for the inevitable God of War 4, and Death only pitching up later in the year for Darksiders 2, we’ll have to settle for a little Asian mythology in our deity-with-an-anger-management-issue upcoming game.
Asura’s Wrath is arriving shortly, but right now, ... [»]
Capcom’s pretty much given Mega-man fans a kick to the teeth of late. Not only was the admittedly odd and mostly rubbish looking Mega Man Universe canned, but they also - and this is much more crucial - went and canned the highly anticipated Mega Man Legends 3 - largely because at the time the 3DS wasn’t selling. Then they even went and ... [»]
Has the gaming world not yet had its fill of zombie games? No matter how fatigued gamers might be towards that specific genre, it seems that developers and publishers are still eager to pump out a few more undead titles, and it looks like Capcom is getting ready for another round of walking dead fever, as it looks set to release a third core title in its Dead Rising franchise.According to sources on Siliconera, the next ...

A few hours ago today, Sony Japan held its annual PlayStation Awards. It honours games that have performed exceedingly well at retail on PlayStation platforms in the land of the rising sun. As far as I know, no similar accolade exists for games that sell well on the Xbox platform, because nothing really does. The event covers games released between November 1, ... [»]
Like the shambling undead that inhabit a few of the more popular Capcom franchises, Dead Rising 2: Off the record rises from the dead and repackages itself as a whole new adventure with a familiar protagonist, while tossing in a few more options, challenges and modes for fans of the series.
But can Dead Rising 2: Off The Record munch its way back into our hearts, or should this game have ... [»]
You’ve got to hand it to the Street Fighter franchise. While they’re perfectly content to milk out every single adjective possible in annual rereleases, when they do decide to take a step forward, the results are significant.
Just look at 2009s Street Fighter 4, which basically reignited an interest in the fighting game genre. The only ... [»]
In September last year, Capcom announced that the newest Devil May Cry would be a reboot, and instead of being made by Capcom itself or another Japanese studio, it would get a “western touch” by being developed by Heavenly Sword and Enslaved devs Ninja Theory. It feature’s a younger, more rebellious Dante (often described as “emo”) and the character redesign made people pissed.No, I ... [»]
If there is a match up that I’d love to see in this lifetime it would be Sub Zero and Scorpion taking on Ken and Ryu from Street Fighter. This is mainly because I’m not a big fan of Street Fighter and would to see Scorpion remove Ken’s head and leave his ... [»]
So you’re sick of zombies and couldn’t be bothered if you never play another zombie theme game again? Think again… Capcom has just released the launch trailer for Dead Rising 2 and it’s going to take a special kind of self control not to be at least excited ... [»]
