Lik-Sang Shuts Down Thanks to SONY

This is a real bad blow to all gamers that were fed up with the drivel fed to us in the west. Sony strikes out hard at Lik-sang when it should be striking out at the brain-dead retailers like EB and Walmart. Shame on you Sony. Lik-Sang’s press release below:

I don’t know if there is a petition to sign, but spread the horrible news.

Clover Interview

A decent interview with Clover founder Inaba before the Capcom break-up. Only point of contention i have is the assumption that capcom was stagnant, not sure what period that was??? The capcom i remember was releasing great shooters (Mars Matrix, Cannon Spike and Gigawing) when most companies were scared to go near the genre, as well as amazing fighting games like Jojo Bizarre’s, and Marvel Vs Capcom series… Let’s not forget Onimusha and Devil May Cry, as well as continued excellence of the Resident Evil Series… where was the stagnation???

Also interesting that Inaba worked on Samurai Shodown, considered one of the greatest 2d fighters (especially Samurai Shodown 2) ever, and yet there was no follow-up by the interviewer… strange… anyway, nit-picking aside, it’s got a lot of great info in it.
