Project CARS Old Vs. New Car Pack Out Now

Project CARS has released yet another pack for it’s On Demand DLC service. The latest pack is called the Old Vs. New Car Pack and features three retro machines and their modern-day counterparts from the factories of BMW, Ford, and Ruf.

Introduced in 1964, the Ford Mustang quickly became one of the company’s most-recognizable models, single handedly starting the muscle car revolution that shaped the American car market for more than a decade. Now, in 2015, the Mustang GT is the newest addition to Ford’s iconic range. Powered by a massive 5-litre V8 engine and delivering more than 428hp of power and 528 Nm of torque, buyers can choose between a full manual and automatic six-speed gearbox.

Based on the Porsche 911 3.2, the 1987 CTR Yellowbird is one of Ruf’s most iconic models, and one that helped build their reputation for building no-compromise sports cars. The 3.4 liter twin-turbocharged flat six engine provided 469hp from two large turbochargers and intercoolers, and had been equipped with a new Bosch Motronic as well as an ignition setup originally designed for Porsche’s 962 Group C race car. Thanks to extensive weight-saving measures such as usage of fibreglass and aluminium, the CTR weighs just 1150 kilograms, resulting in a very impressive performance.

BMW’s 2002 Turbo road car made the history books in 1973 by becoming Europe’s first-ever mass-produced road car powered by a turbocharged engine. The 2002Turbo’s two-litre four cylinder engine provided 170hp of power, a figure that made the 2002 one of the most powerful cars on the road during its time. Built to the Super 2000 touring car regulations, the 320TC is BMW’s weapon of choice for competition in the World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) and countless national touring car series around the globe. Weighing 1170 kilograms, the car is powered by a 1.6 litre DI-turbo four-cylinder engine and a full adjustable six-speed sequential gearbox. Driven by veteran touring car aces such as Tom Coronel, Franz Engstler & Stefano D’Aste, the 320TC clinched five world championship wins.

Project CARS is out now for the PS4, Xbox One and PC. A Wii U version was in the pipeline but was cancelled due to the systems specs.

Rainbow Mika Joins Street Fighter V’s Roster

Rainbow Mika Joins Street Fighter V’s Roster

Capcom has revealed that the colorful Rainbow Mika, often simply called R. Mika, will be joining the already announced characters of Ryu, Chun-Li, M. Bison, Birdie, Nash, Cammy, Ken, Necalli, and Vega in Street Fighter V. Rainbow Mika will be playable this weekend at Capcom’s booth during PAX Prime which is being held in Seattle.

To go along with Rainbow Mika’s reveal, Capcom has released a number of new screenshots and a trailer showing her in action in Street Fighter V. They have also detailed the character and given fans some information regarding her V-Skill and V-Trigger and you can check that out below.

R. Mika’s wrestling prowess will be on full display in Street Fighter V, as she dazzles opponents with a large variety of high-flying moves. This time around, her wrestling tag-team partner Nadeshiko also assists in the fight!
By calling Nadeshiko at the right time using R. Mika’s V-Trigger ability, you’ll be able to setup sneaky attacks and punishing command grab mix-ups that are sure to knock the stuffing out of your opponent. Players who enjoy close-combat guessing games and striking fear into the hearts of opponents will find R. Mika an absolute delight to play.
V-Skill: Mic Performance
R. Mika pulls out her trusty microphone and gives a heart-pumping monologue to the crowd. The longer the buttons are held down, the more powerful her normal and special throws become!
During her monologue state, she is able to absorb one hit from the opponent and can also cancel the speech at any time by letting go of the buttons, causing her to fling the mic at the opponent.
V-Trigger: Nadeshiko (3 Variations)
Now this is wrestling! Depending on the direction held during the V-Trigger activation, R. Mika’s faithful tag-team partner will deliver a surprising, high flying attack at the opponent from different angles: neutral (body splash from above), hold back (dropkick from the front), hold forward (dropkick from behind)
The different variations keep opponents guessing and afraid to hit buttons, perfectly setting up R. Mika’s damaging command throws.

A number of new English screenshots for Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX have been released by Sega and this time around they focus on introducing the game’s various StreetPass features. In the game players will be able to create their own song using a number of various elements including vocaloids, traditional instruments, synthesizers and chiptunes.

This tone that can be created can then be shared via StreetPass to anyone else who happens to have a copy of the game. Of course if you change your tune, then the updated tune will be transferred over next time you manage to pass that person. Profile cards will also be shared this way and these cards can be customized with a variety of backgrounds, character poses, taglines, and messages with more unlockable by playing the game.

Pokemon Championship Season 2016 Details Released

Pokemon Championship Season 2016 Details Released

UPDATE: From original time of writing, The Pokemon Company International have since revised the point allocations for the Video Game Championships to reflect feedback from the community. The points are now much more generous and less top heavy. For reference, the original article containing the old points system remains untouched. The correct and current point allocations for the 2016 Video Game Championship series have been amended to the end of this article.

It was a long and grueling year for Pokemon trainers across both championship formats in 2015, but in a surprisingly quick turn around The Pokemon Company International have released the point structure and series event details for the Pokemon Video Game Championship and Trading Card Game Championship 2016 season. It looks like TPCI have taken some feedback from this years season, lowering best finish limits, but have also made it so you are going to need to perform very well at these tournaments to have a chance at receiving an elusive Worlds invite.

Let’s start with the Video Game Championship details, taken straight from the Pokemon website. As you can see there are still different series for the US and the rest of the world. Unfortunately seasonal regionals seems to still elude the international series. However we do have a new new event type in the Midseason showdowns, which do look to be similar to regionals. The season will continue to use the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Pokemon games for the Nintendo 3DS system.

65–128	12	256

As you can see the competition is now a lot more top heavy and winning an event will be the key to securing an invite. For an example of this change, placing anywhere between 17th and 32nd at this years Nationals netted you a hefty 150 points, however this season the same feat will only see you receive 48 points. On a much more happier note, it seems the Video Game Championships will be adopting a similar Championship Points bar as the Trading Card Game did last year, meaning you will know exactly how many points you need to receive an invite as opposed to relying on leader board results to try and make the cut off position for your country. The amount of points needed for each region has not yet been set.

For a few term clarifications, a kicker is the amount of people that need to attend the event before those points are awarded. For example in the above table, if less than 256 people rock up to the event, no one will get the 12 points for finishing between 65th and 128th. As for best finish limits, that is the limit of how many of that event type will count. For example, if you attend two national tournaments only your best score will count as the best finish limit is 1.

Now for the Trading Card Game 2016 event schedule.
