Mikado Arcade runs tournament for Neo Geo fighter Double Dragon

There was some strange twist of fate that resulted in an arcade fighting game movie tie-in for the box-office-bomb “Double Dragon.” Perhaps even stranger is the fact that this double-jump and air-block heavy Technos fighter is not only playable, but remarkable competitive, as proven by the most recent Mikado Arcade tournament.

You can check out the tournament here:

They also recorded a number of casual matches, which you can see here:

It’s also nice to know that years before Rashid’s “Skies of Honor” stage was making players suffer motion sickness, Double Dragon had its own physics-defying airplane stage!

Ketchup and Mustard become masters of their own (Dr.) Fates in this Injustice 2 “Getting Started” tutorial

As one of the new additions to the cast in Injustice 2, we’ve seen relatively little of Dr Fate so far. Thankfully, PND|Ketchup and Mustard managed to get their hands on the character in a pre-release build, and have put together an extensive beginner’s guide.

Since they only had a couple of hours with the character, don’t expect any enormous strings or gamebreaking tricks, but the Getting Started guide does a fantastic job of getting into the nitty-gritty of the character. Starting with his basic strings and moving on to the unique properties of his special moves, the video ends on some suggestions for a basic gameplan. If you’re planning to dig into the wielder of the Helm of Fate on release, this is absolutely a must-watch video.
