IPPON! SNK has a rich history of creating arcade classics for the Neo Geo hardware. SNK was easily the biggest rival to Capcom in terms of fighting game output. The ’90s saw series likeArt of Fighting,Fatal Fury, andKing of Fighterspop up and take the fight straight to games likeStreet Fighter,Rival Schools, andDarkstalkers. It was quite the time to be a fan of fisticuffs. One of the more revered franchises from SNK during that period wasSamurai Shodown....

Promoted from our Community Blogs [There are not many feelings in this world, besides sex, that are as satisfying as besting an enemy that genuinely tests your skill. When you come out on top, you feel like a total badass. Not because it was easy but because it wasn’t. Mah dude, Dango, totally gets it. Rip and tear, fart and swear, lose and glare, but keep on trying because the challenge is there....

Sons of the Forest, the mutant horror survival sequel toThe Forestby Endnight Games, left its Early Access period behind with the release of Patch 1.0 today. As usual, there are plenty of patch notes to parse, including everything from much-requested quality-of-life tweaks to major story revelations. While there’s a very long,comprehensive list of updatesand tweaks to the game with the full release, I’m going to focus on the highlights, both big and small....

This week, Destructoid is introducing two new weekly articles: The Games That Time Forgot and Fake Game Friday. This first week is more of a test run for these articles than anything, so feel free to add suggestions, criticisms, or whatever to the comments so we can fine tune these new additions. Today’s new article, The Games That Time Forgot, takes an underrated, overlooked, or otherwise obscure game from the past and explains both why it was forgotten, and why it’s worth your time to find a copy....

With some Black guy, big Johnson, little Hart, and I’m not Karen Someone, no I won’t name names,wrote a damned fine article when theJumanjisequel revealed a first look image back in September. All right! You caught me. It was me who wrote said inspiration. Let’s cease with the accolades and get back to the reporting. Now,Jumanji 2(as we affectionately called it) isJumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and if I’m to believe the trailer, I guess that’s because the entire movie is scored to the Guns N Roses classic “Welcome to the Jungle”?...

It’s hard to pick just one Yesterday, we talked about From Software Director Hidetaka Miyazaki’sfavorite boss fightfromtheSoulsseries. Interestingly enough it was the Old Monk fromDemon’s Souls, an encounter that blurred the line between a solo and multiplayer event. He had to fight to get it included in the game, and I’m glad he succeeded, as it’s still one of the most unique boss fights to date. Even having playedDark Souls IIandBloodborneafter writingthis particular Memory Card, I think I’m still going to have to go with Ornstein & Smough from the firstDark Souls....

Don’t keep us in the Dark It’s the most excruciating week of the year for a games blogger, the week where the only stuff that qualifies as news is “Something might happen at The Game Awards.” Thus, I am here again to tell you that something else might happen at The Game Awards. There’s a breadcrumb trail of evidence that Xbox has something up its sleeve for The Game Awards. First and foremost, Xbox has beenpromoting the showthrough its social channels....

Step by step… Heart to heart… Do you all remember the Xbox strategy titleToy Soldiers? If so, then Ubisoft has great news, as the franchise is set to return withToy Soldiers 2: Finest Hour, currently in development for PS4, PC, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Realised by Signal Studios back in 2010,Toy Soldierswas a staple of Xbox Live Arcade and saw battalions of miniaturised soldiers, vehicles, and encampments wage chaotic warfare on mom’s kitchen table....

Everyone say “Thank you, Chris Pratt” Super Mario Run, Nintendo’s middlingly successful attempt to bring a fullMarioexperience to mobile devices, has always followed a freemium model. As of a recent update, the app appears to be leaning a little closer to the “free” side of that portmanteau than before. The 3.0.27 update, released as part of an advertising push forThe Super Mario Bros. Movie, allows players to play one stage every day for free....

Another retailer listing We’ve seen listings beforefor a standaloneCall of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered(which is now only available packed-in withInfinite Warfare), but another one has popped up on another reputable retailer — Amazon. According to a listing from Amazon Japan, the individual release ofRemasteredwill arrive on June 20 on PS4, followed by July 20 on Xbox One. That lines up with the 30-day exclusivity from Sony for the game’s beta, and given that Sony can probably announce it at their press conference with a “coming soon!...
