Games on Demand has updated, bringing MotoGP 08 to the Xbox LIVE Marketplace. It's available for $19.99, and it's about 3GBs in total to download. My personal favorite part of the game is the online races. 16 people online makes the races pretty hectic, especially since learning the flow of speed and turns on the track is so important. Also known as "don't gun it or you'll hit a wall at 100mph on a crotch rocket." Read more...
Update: Congrats to C! It is indeed Drill Man's theme from Mega Man 4! LBD doesn't count, he posted the story at TMMN! :P
This is so exciting that I had to post this late at night :)
First the good news: This brand new teaser trailer for South Korean exclusive, Rockman Online (which we've discussed before) will blow your mind as it mixes in classic Mega Man characters with Mega Man X characters such as Iris, Alia, and Signas.
Now the bad news: The game is still exclusive to South Korea. :(
1000 Unity points to the first person to correctly identify the song that is remixed in this trailer!
PAX is coming up! As you've probably heard, we're going to be livestreaming via Ustream and we have tons of interviews lined up, as well as direct feed of many games!
Additionally, we want to try something new this time and request material to broadcast from you folks, the fans! We're accepting fan made videos, art, or anything that could be broadcast live on the air. What kind of material are we looking for? Well, if you're passionate about a game or franchise (RE: Outbreak, Darkstalkers, etc) let the world know by creating a video message in support of the game!
Or maybe you just want to say hi and give a shout out to your fellow Capcom Unity friends!
All material will be reviewed before airing, so don't think you can slip in something not appropriate!
How to submit: Send us your art, video (.mov and .mp4 formats are best), or anything else you can think of by either sending me the raw file via PM (using yousendit or another similar service) or sending me a link to your material. All materials are due by Wednesday, September 1st by 12:00PM PDT.
PS. The PAX art winner will be announced later this week. For everyone else, we'll be showing off your art during the live ustream at PAX!
We're down to the last third of our entries for the Worlds of Capcom fan art contest! We'll be choosing a winner after all art has been shown!
Today's piece by Capcom Unity member Damian combines the worlds of Monster Hunter and Rival Schools. Says Damian:
I've lost count of how many times I've fought a Tigrex in Monster Hunter, but it's way too many. So I decided to show my love and hate towards the character by having him get smacked around by Shoma Sawamura of Rival Schools fame. I wanted to have the Tigrex do something out of his element, so I chose a game of 1 on 1 baseball.
DJay just updated the Capcom Store with the new Deal of the Week. Lost Planet 2 is on sale for $39.99! You can save even more if you get the Kotobukiya VS figures with the game. You can get the game, the DRIO VS figure, and the Hardballer VS figure for only $99.99, saving you $40. Basically, that means you get a VS figure for free!
If you already have Lost Planet 2, but have been eyeing those sweet Kotobukiya figures, we have a deal on those as well. If you get the DRIO and the Hardballer together, you get them for $69.95, which saves you $10.
Sengoku Basara is like the Michael Jordan of Japanese historical video games with all of its endorsements and partnerships. First there was the drink, then the rice, then the karaoke parlor food, and now APPLES!
In celebration of the anime and the completion of the game in Japan, Capcom Japan has partnered up with the city of Ueda in Nagano Prefecture for this line of Sengoku Basara apple juice, cider, and wine. Tasty!

Monster Hunter Tri has a skill system that takes time and practice to fully take advantage of. It can be a pain in the butt to go in and start manually trying to figure out what skills are useful, and how to get the ones you want on your armor set. Team Septicore has come to the rescue! They've created a tool that allows you to put together your dream armor set and edit on the fly. All without having to do any trial and error in the game. Better still, there's saved armor sets from other users, so you don't have to build your own even. Just pick the skills you want, and see how they made it.
