A demonstration of what this means:
“Regarding the latest CPT rules… D + U = N on controller…..”

Firmware updates to match tournament ruling:
I don’t personally use or own any leverless controllers but I am glad there was a quick response so players can continue to play on their preferred devices.
Leverless controllers have been a great alternative for the folks who developed health complications over the years in their play.
Tekken 8 Ling Xiaoyu Trailer, Match Footage & Trailer Breakdown Playlist
Tekken 8 looks great! They are making good on their promise to make the game more engaged and aggressive.
Not that it wasn’t already engaging beforehand. I see what is going on with the heat mechanics especially the heat extenders that may come from power crushes. I like that when you do a power crush with a heat extender it doesn’t heat extend unless the power crush lands on hit.

Project L news:
Riot allowed some pro players to test Project L.
Gamerbee’s feedback summarized
- Not yet ready for a beta
- Free to play
- Potential console release
- Generalized input lag on PC and other platforms
- No motion inputs
- Big esports ambition
Everything Gamerbee said is pretty much what I am expecting from Project L. We may be a while before a closed beta but I am looking forward to play. What intrigues me the most from the game is the movement and the potential to be able to use Udyr if he makes it in. They have a huge roster of characters to choose from. I see Project L being a big knowledge check game.
E3 Cancel?!
I’m happy I was able to experience at least one E3. 2017 when they were first showing off Injustice 2. I was there as an exhibitor. Being able to see everything before the crowd got there. I even bumped into Hideo Kojima. Didn’t ask for a picture or interact with him at all. I just acknowledged that we both exist in the same world. I even saw Method Man walking an opposite direction of me through a hall and I yelled out and waved “METHOD MAN!” and he waved as he kept going. E3 was as cool as the hype was.
I’ll always remember the awesome game line ups and how the world of gamers all waited in anticipation for whatever they had in store for us. Thanks and shout out to all those involved.
