While the main inclusion and reasoning for purchasing Arcade Edition are the four new characters, AE is packed with updates and minor new features. The majority of enhancements and tweaks are going to seem invisible to the average player; likewise, only the more seasoned and daily players should consider purchasing this $15 (1200 Microsoft Points) expansion."
A look at the upcoming Capcom Cup as well as all the latest news and results in the eSports world.
HelenBaby writes : "It’s always a cause for celebration when a new arcade opens, so we are pleased to announce that, as of last Monday (September 21st) London has its latest gaming venue! Joining the prestigious ranks of Namco Funscape, Las Vegas Soho and The Four Quarters ; VEGA London (as it is known) is located in the basement of a building known from the outside as VEGAS. It represents the building’s video game arcade section (the ground level floor is populated with gambling machines, in a similar setup to the Las Vegas arcade in Soho). VEGA London is a miniature arcade, yes, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for with in-demand arcade titles. Combine this with being situated in one of the most achingly cool neighborhoods in Central London (Angel, Islington) and you begin to appreciate what a formidable little pocket rocket this awesome little venue is".

This is what SF needed balance breaking characters thanks Capcom you did it again. Might as well add Sentinel now
