Fysa ki is getting more love
Have to get back into KI. It’s been a while and I am beyond rusty.
Still a fun one
Wow, that’s a welcomed surprise.
There’s a Capcom Humble Bundle that is worth checking out:
$20 US dollars gets you SF1-5 on PC if you’d like it on PC. Also some of their other fighters through Capcom Arcade Stadium. None of the Marvel ones, for understandable reasons (they really really really need to make a Marvel Capcom fighting game collection, talk to Marvel and get the licensing done to hammer that out Capcom!)
I, sadly, missed the GF because it was running late - and I had to work in the morning 
- but, congrats to Uma for winning Capcom Cup X! Capcom’s new system worked with flying colors and proved that those who can afford to travel are not always the best.
This sounds like a re-issue, but the first I’m hearing of it. I’m now considering my first Arcade 1Up (frankly I don’t like them) because Capcom is not doing anything like a home version of a Marvel collection.
First: That sounds awesome.
Second: How’s everyone enjoying Ed? I can already tell he’s going to be a menace…
KI getting more love today
Looks so good! Hope there is a beta this year. Loving everything about the art direction so far. I like KOF 15 and all but it looks waaay too sterile art wise IMO. Glad SNK realized they can’t have the Garou sequel looking anything like that.
I’m not sure if I was the only one but the game would crash on me consistently to the point where it was unplayable. So this is great to hear.
Killer Instinct will get another XP boost this weekend. I played it a lot last weekend and have to say I’m kinda hooked now!
MK1 and its DLC is 50% off on the Xbox store right now. For another week.
Just got it.
Blazblue, SC6, and Tekken 7 also at significant discounts.
It’s a great game enjoy
In some more KI news… the Ultra Tour was brought back…
$15000 dollar pot at combo breaker
and 10k pot at CEO
Yeah, I’m definitely thinking a new KI is in the works.
I really wish that at the end of the tour we get an announcement.
If I recall correctly they stated 3 tournaments would be getting prizes… So my guess is that the last one is a surprise evo event
As Max put it, all this is to gauge interest and see if people still care about KI. It’s pretty obvious they do.
