April Fools (In Asia)

So let's start with normal game companies.
Arc Sys and Examu start with a Blaz Blue vs Arcana cross over...flash game. In which you eat Heart, as Arakune.

Dungeon and Fighter makes a dating sim.

TeamLiquid releases a "Professional" mod for Starcraft 2.

Type-Moon characters started twittering.

I'll put more as they come in out of boredom.

Marvel 3 and SSF4 PC

Wised aged veteran Henaki does not learn and puts Capcom on blast again.

Anyway, today I leaked Marvel 3 announcement in May and Super SF4 for PC. This immediately led to my permanent IP ban and a very hasty thread deletion. There are multiple sources that confirm Marvel 3 in development, and Super SF4 PC was sorta leaked a while ago by some guy with a slippery tongue at some trade show, but yeah it exists too.

Guns

My guns as of chapter 13.
lol min maxers

The Tales of Mago, 2D God

And then, the final blow.
Ameriken: “MAGO . . .”
Ameriken: “AH . . .”
・・・
Mago: “Ah . . . ? ?”
Ameriken: “AH . . ARIGATO!!!”
! ! ? ! ? ? ? ! ! ? ? ?

One of the most hilarious blog postings I have seen from Mago, credits to fubar for the translation.

South Korea ship sunk, North Korea suspected

Headline says it all.
WW3.

KOFXIII

So now that the tech demo called KOFXII has ended its miserable life, it's time for XIII.
Obviously leaving this character out was a mistake the first time around.

Resonance of Fate customization

That's a gun?

Cross Days even more of a trap than first believed.

Long story short, fake versions of the game upload ALL YOUR SHIT onto the internet.
That, and the actual game includes none of the preview screenshots (almost all fake) and your character cross-dresses as a girl who swings that way.
Yeah. Overfl0w spent years making a troll game.

New Ken winquote

Oh Capcom you.

End of Eternity/Resonance of Fate

This game is amazing.

Touhou in Ai Sp@ce

Seems like they've added a hilariously awkward looking shooting game to moe blob space.
Maybe people were getting bored of just being guys pretending to be girls doing nothing but looking pretty.

The Sandpit

New York City, in minature

The Sandpit from Sam O'Hare on Vimeo.

I used to play this game

Youtube Strike Number 2 (3)

Seems like Funimation has nothing better to do than send me takedown notices.
However once again the target they're aiming at is hilariously beyond their reach.
The video they chose to attack was Anta...Baka?, which is a MAD of a doujinshi of Evangelion.
So in effect, the "video" is actually a slideshow of fanart.
Last I checked, Funimation only owned the rights to distribute the new EVA movie.
ADV still owns the rights to the tv series.
Neither of them own the rights to the entire franchise.
What a waste of time.

Out of the Blue

So I randomly had an epiphany at work today...the song "Out of the Blue" by Julian Casablancas describes why I play SWR/Hisoutensoku still.
Both verses even.
It was sort of morbidly sad and fascinating.

Long rant by Tim Rogers about Japan sucking

Summary of article I guess is:

[16:56] <@fubarduck> so while everything this guy says is true
[16:56] <@fubarduck> he has little right to complain about it
[17:01] <@fubarduck> i should write a book about america's problems
[17:01] <@fubarduck> and how they relate to our subpar videogame development

2ch taken down, now back up

Apparently the hilarious threads about how Yu-Na Kim bribed the judges (completely with corresponding Niconico videos) on 2ch angered Korean enough to take 2ch down temporarily.
That's a lot of angry Koreans.

Touhou 12.5 announced

I will use...two spoilers.
Also Aya is an elf.
