Everyone has a fighting chance
It’s not easy to keep your opponent under pressure at the best of times, but when your strongest pressure tools aren’t safe, things get even more difficult. That’s where understanding active frames comes in handy–by hitting with later frames, you can make moves safe that otherwise wouldn’t be, and make unique combos possible. Check out the video from xMEECHx2015 for more information on how useful active frames can be in Mortal Kombat X.

Paradox Interactive and Obsidian Entertainment have announced that Tyranny will be ready to roll beginning November 10th. Preorders for Windows, Mac and Linux systems have opened as of today and come in three varieties, each with its own in game perks.
It was already confirmed on Twitch that Street Fighter V’s Halloween costumes would be modifiable with a button-code, in the same way you can select Urien’s classic look, and remove elements from the Capcom Pro Tour and swimsuit premium outfits. For those not already in the know, the code to alter the Halloween costumes is the same as for the CPT/swimsuits: simultaneously hold LK + LP + MP + HP, and UP on the control stick/d-pad while the match loads. VesperArcade explains in the video below:
This seems to solidify a trend of new premium outfits using the same code input, rather than mixing it up–and leaving Urien’s code input unique to him.
If you haven’t picked up a new costume for your main yet, you can get a preview of the full color palette for each Halloween costume in VesperArcade’s video below:
If you want to see the new costumes in the arena (namely: the Spooky Arena), check out the latest WSO Sessions video–a Halloween highlight episode–from Capcom Fighters.

Champions Online players can take part in the annual Blood Moon event that starts today and runs through November 3rd. The zombie apocalypse has started thanks to Takofanes and his undead hordes. Players are charged with fighting alongside the druidic hero known as Dweomer to send them all back to the grave.
For Street Fighter V players on PC, one perennial issue with the game has been its controller support. Simply put, the game lacks support for direct input controllers, forcing some players to find a workaround to play the game. Now however, it seems that an upcoming update to Steam may help alleviate this issue.
At Steam Dev Days, Valve’s Jeff Bellinghausen announced that Steam would be getting official PlayStation 4 controller support. This means that players can use PlayStation 4 controllers in all games on Steam without having to fiddle with third party software.
Now whether or not “PlayStation 4 controllers” mentioned by Bellinghausen at the event refers just to the default DualShock 4 gamepad or to all PS4 controllers in general is unknown. That said, even if it currently just refers to the Dual Shock 4, Bellinghausen mentioned that they would be adding support for even more controllers in the future.
