Street Fighter V’s Cammy Is Too Sexy For ESPN
A game that has received PEGI 12 is not fit for Broadcast Standards according to ESPN. The costume that Cammy has been wearing for past 24 years doesn’t sit well with the network’s standards and practices. When Capcom announced that Cammy would be a playable character in Street Fighter 5 then there was some backlash from the fans as there were comments like Ugly character design and sexually provocative. She is again surrounded with controversy, during last weekend’s Evo 2017 e-sports tournament in Las Vegas, Japanese competitor Ryota Inoue (who competes under the mononym Kazunoko) advanced, on the strength of his Cammy play, to the Street Fighter V finals, where he found himself paired against American player Du Dang, also known as NuckleDu.

In order to test them out, Capcom is offering a free week of online play starting 28th March, with all fighters unlocked, including the new fighter Kolin.

E3 Diary: Clash of the Titans Pt. 1 (Sony)
The big guns came out today at E3, with conferences from both Sony and Microsoft laying down their cards for the future of this generation of consoles.

Street Fighter 5 Exclusivity an Ugly Trend?
Remember all the controversy generated with the timed Tomb Raider announcement for the Xbox? Well prepare for another bout of controversy as we hear the massive announcement that Street Fighter 5 will be coming exclusively to PS4 and PC. That’s right folks; the internet is about to go into meltdown and we’ll no doubt be on the front lines witnessing the war unfold as tears are shed, keyboards are smashed and hypocrites are exposed. THIRD PARTY EXCLUSIVITY- AN UGLY NEW TREND REARS ITS HEAD So there we have it. Third Party exclusivity is a thing now; first Titanfall, then Tomb Raider and now Street Fighter 5. We cannot say that we are fans of this trend at all. It only serves to deprive otherwise entitled gamers all because of some financial deal struck between companies. Titanfall suffered ...
