Street Fighter x Tekken TGS Tekken Character Teaser

Here's the other Street Fighter x Tekken Tokyo Game Show character teaser, this time for the Tekken side.

Now this is an easy one, the white glove with the red stripes and the frilly shirt gives it away. It's Emilie de Rochefort aka Lili, that rich little blonde girl who kicks total ass. I can't wait to see what moves she's got over on the Capcom fighting game engine side of things.

Street Fighter X Tekken TGS Street Fighter Character Teaser

Capcom releases one of two Street Fighter x Tekken character teaser trailers for this year's Tokyo Game Show. Any guesses who could it be?

A lot of people (ie commentors on youtube) and even Machinima speculate that this is the Red Cyclone himself, Zangief. I am inclined to agree with them. From the snazzy red hitop boots to the bluegreen anti-hadouken flame and even the Street Fighter II background sprite, more lariat spam be a comin'.

3DS gets a second slide pad for Monster Hunter [Update]

Monster Hunter Tri will be ported over to the 3DS under the name Monster Hunter 3G. The added 'G' will indicate that it won't be just a direct port but will also be packed with content. Aside from the Tri's world, underwater elements included, 3G will also contain the expanded world that was in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. This is a good thing for the 3DS since Monster Hunter is a very big franchise in gaming today and will surely bring up sales for Nintendo's latest handheld. But all you MH veterans know that controlling your character and the camera at the same time on the PSP was very awkward, forcing you to do the 'claw' but controlling the analog stick with your thumb and D-pad with your index finger. And with the 3DS' layout of the slide pad being above the D-pad, one can only imagine how the 'claw' will be performed.

According to Famitsu, there will be a right slide pad attachment for Monster Hunter 3G. It will snap onto the 3DS will be slightly smaller than the left slide pad. It will be positioned to the right of the face buttons and will have it's own pair of triggers because the peripheral will cover the existing shoulder buttons on the system.

Capcom will probably show off Monster Hunter 3G at TGS and it's possible we may see a product demo or at least a peek at this new peripheral.

[Update]

With the release of the latest edition of Famitsu we finally get a look at the new peripheral. Kinda reminds me of the SEGA Gamegear, maybe it's just the color.

Called the "Kakuchou Slide Pad," or "Expansion Slide Pad," it really does add a bit of bulk to the system.

Back to the Future episode 1 free on PSN until September 27

The first of five episodes from the 'point-and-click without actually pointing and clicking' Back to the Future adventures games by Telltale games is up for free now on the PlayStation Network. Take note that this will only last until September 27 so go grab it while you still can.

Episode 1 of Back of the Future the game also went free for the PC and Mac earlier this year, I think it was back in February? But if you missed it then or don't have a PC that can run it and you own a PS3 then the gods of time has given you a second chance. If you where iffy about this series and wanted to try it but didn't want to shell out the money for the game then FREE is certainly something that is hard to resist.

Since I don't own a PS3, I had Arlie check it out and he confirms that it's legit. So what are you waiting for? EIGHTY-EIGHT MILES PER HOUR!
