Street Fighter Week: Combo Comparison

Wii Feature | Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - Virtual Console

About 15 years ago you couldn't set foot into an arcade without elbowing your way through a busting throng of Street Fighter II experts. Hell you might have been one yourself. Maybe you missed the arcade takeover and caught the games on SNES or PlayStation years later. Either way, you spent hours honing your combos to laser-like precision. But since those glory days, chances are your animation-interrupting attacks have softened somewhat, and ...

Street Fighter Week: The Sounds of Street Fighter

Wii Feature | Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - Virtual Console

"Hadouken!""Shoryuken!""Sonic Boom!"Anyone who's played a game, walked past an arcade or read a comic book in the past 10 years should recognize those words immediately. They're some of Street Fighter's most well-known attacks and for years were at the heart of the game's cultural takeover. Kids mimed the attacks, gamers shouted them out loud and tournament players dreamed about perfecting combos with these moves as the killer final blow. But ...

Street Fighter Week: The evolution of Chun-Li and...

Wii Feature | Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - Virtual Console

Chun-Li, a Chinese crime fighting vixen with Sequoias for thighs, is the first female character ever to appear in a 1-on-1 fighter. This distinction, however, is merely a side note in the story of her rise to fame, which ultimately branded her as one of the greatest fighters of gaming, and inspired countless future game heroines. ...

Street Fighter Week: The evolution of Ken and Ryu

Wii Feature | Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - Virtual Console

Ken and Ryu are cultural icons. Mention their names and even someone with only cursory knowledge of 90's pop culture will know who you're talking about. Ten years after Street Fighter III, Street Fighter IV is about to cement the duo into the collective consciousness of a new generation. In celebration, we're taking a look at how the legendary duo became legends in the first place... ...

Top 7... weirdest Street Fighter insults

Wii Feature | Street Fighter II: The World Warrior - Virtual Console

When it hit arcades back in 1991, Street Fighter II: The World Warrior instantly perfected two things: balanced martial-arts fighting that let players choose from a variety of wildly different styles, and trash talking. Arcade gamers at the time didn't even need to insult their would-be challengers after brutalizing them onscreen; their characters did it for them, delivering the dis with a finesse that soon became legendary. For Street Fighter ...

The worst Street Fighter characters ever

Wii Feature | Street Fighter IV

We'll be honest - most of these characters are from the Street Fighter III series. The games introduced a 12-year-old's sketch book worth of extraordinarily absurd bogeymen and we'll never forgive them. Okay, maybe we will, but we're still going to point and laugh.Of course, not all of Capcom's bizarre deviations occurred in SF III - there's plenty of awful character design in the series to ridicule, and we've collected the best of the worst ...

Street Fighter Week: The evolution of Cammy

Wii Feature | Street Fighter IV

Beautiful, deadly, and pigtailed: Cammy is the second female character to appear in the Street Fighter series. Though perhaps not as widely acknowledged by the mainstream as Chun-Li, the amnesic young warrior is a fan favorite, and has left her footprint eternally in the Street Fighter series. This is her legacy. ...

Streets of Rage

Wii Feature | Streets of Rage - Virtual Console

Streets of Rage hit the Virtual Console a couple weeks ago and we are psyched. While the sequels improved upon the original, there was nothing like the thrill of the first. We can go on and on about the punk with Freddy Kruger claws or the wrestler you fight on a beach or even the giant elevator level, but that would be boring. Download it and check it out yourself. Oh, if you get stuck, peep this trusty guide for all your ass-kicking ...

The coolest, funniest gaming images on the web

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

If evidence were ever needed of how culturally important games are these days, it's in the world of art. Between painters, photographers, comic writers and sculptors, the internet is packed to bursting with artists paying tribute to gaming and putting their own spin on our favourite iconography. Here's some of the best stuff we've found. ...
