Too Funny! Dan Legendary Taunt Combo Into Ultra 1 For The Win
Dan was originally designed to be a joke character, but this video proves that his super taunt is no joke at all. In fact, it combos right into his winning ultra. The video itself is pretty poor quality, but the ending to the match makes it all worth it.
Real Life Super Street Fighter IV Ultra Combos
Have you ever wondered what the ultra combos in Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV would look like in real life? Wonder no more. You may have seen the first two “rounds” of videos by Thousand Pounds Action Company, but now they’re back with the third and final round. As before, the ultras are original creations, but they’ve punched in one “real” one as some extra fan service.
And in case you missed the first two rounds of Super Street Fighter IV ultra combos in real life, here they are.
Which one is your favorite?
Fighting Games News Update: 03/31/10
We’ll keep it short, sweet, and to the point.
The Samurai Shodown franchise isn’t as hot today as it has been in years past, but SNK-Playmore is keeping it alive with Samurai Shodown Sen, which is bound for Europe this Spring. The US version was supposed to be released last November as Samurai Shodown: Edge of Destiny, but now it’s going by the Sen name this Spring too.
Continuing with SNK Playmore, we can expect to see King of Fighters XIII with an art style similar to King of Fighters XII. The camera seems to be pulled out some, so that’s a definite improvement over last year’s offering.
Heading over to the 2D realm, we can expect to see BlazBlue: Continuum Shift this summer. It’s the follow-up to Calamity Trigger and it’s coming to the Xbox 360 and PS3.
Street Fighter IV for iPhone has launched and it seems pretty good. The control scheme is simplified and you don’t get as many characters (eight), but the multiplayer aspect is killer and the visuals are very good for a mobile game. Find it in the App Store for ten bucks.
Given the success of the iPhone Street Fighter IV, Namco could be trying to cash in with a Tekken 6 for iPhone too. Fighting games on a touchscreen handheld. Go figure.
And Super Street Fighter IV is set for release on April 27. We know the last new character is Turkish oil mogul Hakan with his super-slippery moves, we’ve learned about the pre-order bonuses, and we’ve got plenty of screenshots too.
But wait, there’s more. There’s the Dojo Edition of the game, the improved online mode with a “lobby style” mechanic similar to Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, and plenty of new costumes for our world warriors too.
I can’t wait!
