Sloclap is known for creating the Kung-Fu brawler Absolver, which was then followed up by a partnership with Kelper Interactive for another Kung-Fu brawler, Sifu. So, as you would expect, the next game from the studio is an online multiplayer five-a-side football showdown (that being real football, not whatever the Yanks play), called Rematch—Fifu was right there.

Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket's new expansion Extradimensional Crisis has added a new card that ends up being one of the strongest in the game if you can guarantee coin flips will go your way.

I understand fighting game rosters only have a finite number of spaces available at a given time, and that not every character can return.

Fans think Capcom could be gearing up to re-release Lost Planet 2 on PC thanks to a new update – which just so happened to also delete everyone's saves and break the online. Games For Windows Live is a name that will send shivers down the spine of PC gamers who were around in the early 2010s. Microsoft's attempt to get Xbox Live into PC gaming resulted in some of the most poorly done PC ports of the era, like the early version of Dark Souls.
