Just a quick head’s up for you guys:
After been sold out mere hours after its announcement, it seems that the launch edition of the highly anticipated Sony Playstation 4 is back in stock on Amazon. Below are the bundles that are still available for pre-orders with a guaranteed launch date delivery available.
PS4 + Killzone + 1 Yr Playstation Plus subscription
PS4 + Battlefield 4 + 1 Yr Playstation Plus subscription
PS4 + Knack
And finally the irresistible bundle PS4 console with the amazingly looking Watchdog
If the 2006 PS3 can be taken as a reference i expect these bundles to sold out within few hours, much like the launch date standard console that sold out mere hours after the E3 announcement.

If you are worried about the Free to play aspect of the upcoming Killer Instinct you will be pleased to know that the game developers have made clear, in the video above, that players can purchase the full game if they want and not have to worry about paying for each character. Those who are only interested in couple characters can purchase these characters alone and don’t have to spend the full price (Which has yet to be revealed).
The devs also made it sound that they are not implementing finishing moves (Killer Instinct’s version of Fatalities) but are open to suggestions and requests from the community.
With all the (deserved) negativity surrounding Xbox One, i must say that Killer Instinct is one of the very few things that Microsoft is getting right. But is it enough to consider shelling $499 for the console? Let us know what you think in the comments section.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with this 90′s franchise, Jago is a Tibetan warrior and the hero of the game. He plays a bit similar to Ryu and Ken (fireball, dp, and a flying kick, all with the same motions SF has).
Look out for more Killer Instinct news in the coming days.

We have not heard anything new regarding the new Street Fighter 4 update since its announcement, but it seems that it is about to change as Ono san himself hinted, via his twitter, that upcoming Street Fighter news will emerge during EVO 2k13.
Now don’t expect a Street Fighter 5 announcement, as Ono revealed that there no current work done on a next Street Fighter.

As predicted, Arcsystem works has announced, officially, The Blazblue animated series titled “Alter Memory”. The series will be an adaptation of Calamity Trigger (the first game in the franchise) and is described as:
“The story is set in December of 2199, when the streets are full of anticipation for the end of the year and the start of the new one. Amid the celebrations, word spreads that Ragna the Bloodedge, an SS-class rebel with the highest ever bounty on his head, has appeared in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi. The apparent aim of Ragna or the “Grim Reaper” is the destruction of the system controlling the world. To collect the bounty, a motley array of unrivaled fighters converge on Kagutsuchi.”

Arcsystem’s beloved fighting game series, blzablue, is getting an Anime series adaptation. The news comes from the Blazblue light novel series that was secured by SGCafe.
Arcsystem works are scheduled to announce “something new” tomorrow Sunda May 19th at 8pm Japan Time. Will they reveal more details about the anime ? Time will tell. But in the mean time i keep wondering why we did not get such treatment for the revival of Street Fighter with SF4 and SSF4. Both Ono san and Shizowa San alluded to an anime series being in the works, but it seemed that plans fell through.
Are you excited about an anime series revolving around the Blazblue fighting franchise?
