Exato Games, the indie developers behind the upcoming FPS/Mincraft mash-up, Guncraft, announced today that their new title will feature full Twitch integration. That’s really ironic, seeing that we just recorded our own Guncraft livestream yesterday in the form of a CC Impact episode. (Hint – you should go check it out!)
Exato will be using Twitch’s own SDK (Software Development Kit) so the game can have native support of the livestream giant for players everywhere to enjoy. This will allow you to show off the world you’re building, the gun your designing, or your own deathmatches in real-time!
Twitch will be completely ready to go when the game launches this Thursday, July 11, on Desura, GOG, Green Man Games, Rain Digital Games, and the official Guncraft website. It will also be coming to Steam later this summer as a Greenlit game.
To celebrate the launch, the dev teams will be utilizing the new Twitch functionality to livestream games on their Twitch site here. You can also check out their official website here.

Two famous voice actresses have been transformed into Nendoroids, allowing fans to further show their support for only 4,900 yen ($49USD) each.
The Yukari Tamura and Nana Mizuki Nendoroids were produced by well-known figurine manufacture Good Smile Company, and being sold through King Records who hold contracts with both voice actresses.
You may recognize Yukari’s voice from her roles in Trinity Blood, Clannad and Oreimo whilst Nana has made a name for herself in various anime including Fullmetal Alchemist, Darker than Black and Toriko.
The Yukari figure displays her in a white dress with pink frills, complete with neko mimis, a tail and two additional cat figures wearing pink suites. Nana Mizukis’ figure is just as interesting; wearing a red/white waitress outfit and holding a burger on a tray, the figure is based off the music video for her song “Lovely Fruit” and comes with an additional mascot figure called Nanet-san.
Both Nendoroids will be sold during their live concert tours this year, but don’t fret fans outside of Japan because you can still pre-order Yukari Tamura by clicking the link here. Let us know which one is your favorite by leaving a comment in the section below.

While many are geared up for the newest movie from director Guillermo del Toro, Legendary, and Warner Bros, it seems that theaters aren’t the only place being invaded with the giant robots. A video game version, titled Pacific Rim The Videogame, will be hitting the XBLA the same day as the film and to show it off developer Yuke’s has put out a trailer.
This isn’t the first time Yuke’s has dealt with movie games or fighting robots as they created the Real Steel game back in 2011.

Over the weekend, the British and Irish Lion’s Rugby squad dominated the Qantas Wallabies in an embarrassing 41-16 trouncing. After their victory, us Antipodeans (That there’s a fancy term for ANZACS… It’s true… look it up) were left scratching our heads and thinking “How could they have beaten us?” Well as it turns out, there was a pretty big sign that we should have seen. (No this isn’t a sports article, just bear with me folks … I DO have a point to make)
While the Lions head back across the seas to a no doubt proud Britain, you can pick up a copy of Rugby Challenge 2 and relive the best parts of the tour for yourself. If you are from the UK That would probably involve you taking control of The Lions and severely beating us in our own country. Or, if you think you could have played better rugby than the Wallabies did, then you have the option to replay the series from the beginning as the (usually) dominant team, and succeed where they failed.
Rugby Challenge 2 is available now on both Xbox 360 and Ps3 and you can buy your copy by clicking here. Don’t forget that for all the video game news as it becomes available, stay tuned to Capsule Computers … Also, make sure you look up Antipodeans.
