Click to “super” sizeCody isn’t the brightest of the Street Fighter bunch, is it? The Final Fight star made his first appearance in the series in Street Fighter Alpha 3, having just escaped from prison. Apparently, he hasn’t figured out how to remove his manacles (nor has he changed out of his incriminating garb) in the several years between the events of Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Street Fighter II, nor in the time between Street Fighter II and Super Street Fighter IV, which is where these new screens originate.
Sure, the other characters are all wearing the same outfits from years ago (except for Chun Li), but those can all be reasonably believed to be choices. Maybe Dan wears other stuff when he’s off the job, and changes into his pink gi. But it’s extremely hard to believe that Cody would voluntarily don his prison uniform and shackles again, which suggests that he can’t remove them. This is also the guy who picks up a rock and throws it as one of his special moves.

Yakuza 3? That’s sooo yesterday. Don’t you want to hear about Yakuza 4?!
Yep, that’s right – on the back of the news that Yakuza 3 will officially be heading to the West on the PS3, news of Yakuza 4’s release date in Japan has been announced, accompanied by some new screenshots from the game.
Set to release on March 18th in Japan (hmm, that ‘March’ date sounds familiar), Yakuza 4 will be another PlayStation 3 exclusive in a long line of Sony console exclusives in the Yakuza franchise.
The game will apparently feature three main protagonists who each have their own style of fighting, wrapped up in a new and improved fighting system which includes the ability to learn new moves by observing others performing them in everyday life.
A new money lending system will also be implemented (with the ability to ‘follow up’ on those lenders who don’t pay you back) while weather conditions (such as rain) will make an appearance to add a little variety to game scenarios.
No word yet on whether this edition, too, will get a release in the West, but in the meantime, you can check out the rest of the newly released Yakuza 4 screenshots below:

The third entry to the cult classic Yakuza series of games will indeed be making its way over to the West, SEGA announced late yesterday, bringing with it the original Japanese voice cast, but subtitled in English so that us Westerners can actually understand what’s going on.
Exclusive to PlayStation 3, Yakuza 3 tells the story of Kiryu ‘Dragon of Dojima’ Kazuma, as he is once again called to battle powerful Tokyo mobsters after trying to leave his old life of crime behind.
Fans of the Yakuza series apparently had a large part to play in the final decision to bring Yakuza 3 over to the West, of which SOE’s European Marketing Director Gary Knight says:
“Yakuza 3 was one of the most requested titles for localisation by our European SEGA community, so we are delighted to be able to fulfil their wishes with this announcement.
“As well as delving even further into the rich narrative of the Yakuza universe, the development team have pushed the PlayStation 3 hardware to the limits to produce a beautiful and startlingly realistic depiction of the Japanese underworld.”
Yakuza 3 has already sold over half a million copies in ‘the East’ since its release in late February, and that tally is sure to grow when the game launches in North America and Europe in March next year.
We leave you now with a few more beautiful screenshots from Yakuza 3, as well as an excellent debut trailer, which you can have a look at below:

BioWare has just released a new trailer for Mass Effect 2, featuring the exploits of strategic tactician “Commander Shepard the Engineer” and his murderous robot. Much like the first game, engineer class players will rely more heavily on strategery and tech management than direct confrontation.
Lead gameplay designer Christina Norman guides us through some combat-heavy gameplay, which depicts the aforementioned android aggressor along with some cool abilities, like freezing enemies on the spot and hacking mechanized enemies. Oh, Mass Effect 2, you had us at killer ‘bot.

The first episode of Team 17’s (Worms) Alien Breed Evolution will become available on Xbox LIVE in two weeks time, and to celebrate, the developer has released a mess of screenshots and a few trailers for you to gawk at.
Alien Breed Evolution (Episode 1) is a re-imagining of Team 17’s classic alien breed top-down corridor shooter, Alien Breed, which released in 1991 to great acclaim. Now, 18 years later, gamers will be able to get their hands on the next entry to the franchise on December 16th on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the measly sum of 800 MS Points.
After looking over the following screenshots, and watching the two included videos, you’ll understand why that amount of Space Bucks is so measly.
While the game is currently exclusive to the Xbox 360, it’ll become available soon enough on PC and PS3 next year, and features singleplayer and cooperative play while using Unreal Engine technology to raise “the quality and production bar for original digital download titles.”
Take it away, screenshots and videos:

“Wha wha wha…”
That’s the sound you’ll be making while you watch the debut trailer for Muscle March, an upcoming WiiWare game from Namco Bandai.
From the looks of the trailer, Muscle March appears to be a party game in which you play one of several muscle-bound avatars running in a line through public places (as well as time and space) following a leader in the queue.
The leader (seemingly) poses their avatar (using the Wii’s WiiMote and Nunchuk) and creates a hole by running straight through walls and the fabric of space (seriously!) – the followers then need to copy the pose set by the leader in order to get through this hole.
This is a super crazy looking game! Can’t wait to play it!
