Future Dead or Alive 5 Last Round Content May Not Come to Older Consoles Due to Hardware Limitations

Team NINJA has been quite consistent in supporting the Dead or Alive 5 series with additional characters, optional costumes, and various other extras. However, it seems that this may soon come to an end for last generation’s platforms.

The developers revealed earlier today that they may not be able to put out additional content for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Dead or Alive 5 Last Round in the future. This is because they are apparently reaching the limit on how much downloadable content they can add on to these consoles due to limits on hardware capacity.

That said, Team NINJA has stated that they are still looking into these restrictions and will inform fans of their plans moving forward as soon as possible.

Dead or Alive 5 Last Round is scheduled to launch in North America and Europe on February 17 and February 20, respectively. It will be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Elder Scrolls Online: Understanding Champion Points

At the end of December Zenimax announced what players are going to receive when the champion system is released, 30 champion points. If you had at least one character veteran rank 1 or higher you’d receive 30 champion points when 1.6 goes live. It doesn’t matter if you’ve spent the last 9 months playing the same veteran 14 character, or even had eight veteran rank 14 characters, you’d still receive 30 champion points. As you can see there is a major flaw in this.

Pick Up Some Basics for Ultra Street Fighter IV’s Sakura

Sakura brings a lot to the table in Ultra Street Fighter IV: good buttons, ambiguous setups, and some of the highest stun and damage output around thanks to her lengthy combo options. But before you can get to all the fancy character-specific Tatsu loops and setups, it’s important to nail down the basics.

In an effort to help aspiring Sakura players get started without being overwhelmed, shano has compiled a collection of entry-level combos that don’t ask much from the players. These combos won’t turn any heads, but they will help you get used to the fighter’s style without having to commit much time to learning strings of tight links. That’s not to say that some of these options don’t include strict timing themselves, but they pop up only rarely.
