Gaming News from WonderCon 2010

WonderCon 2010 is in the bag and it was another great convention this year. Capcom showed up with demo stations for their latest games like Super Street Fighter IV, Monster Hunter, and mobile versions of Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter Alpha 3.

Just gotta say, SSFIV is shaping up to be another awesome fighter. There are ten new characters and new online modes that fans of the series will clamor for once they see how robust the system is. Eight-player voice chat during the theater mode and 8-player quarter up matches are also new welcomed features. Pre-order at Amazon.com and get a free pack of 5 classic costumes. The PS3 version is on sale for $36.99 and the Xbox 360 version is on pre-order for $39.99. Both come with the pre-order bonus.

The mobile versions of Street Fighter are wicked cool too. Now we can finally satisfy our pugilistic tendencies wherever we go -- whether it be by iPhone or PSP, the game looks great and the controls feel smooth.

Best Buy set up a stage for convention goers to go and test out the new Wii game, Let's Dance. Gesturing with the Wii-mote, players follow the motions of an on-screen character as they dance to pop songs. It was a crowd pleaser for sure, but whether it was because of the game or the fact that girls were shaking it on stage was hard to tell.

Big ups to the Dante's Inferno booth. They had a menacing statue of the title character and a couple of costumed girl minions working the booth.

Convention attendees were also treated to samples of Tru Blood - a new fruit punch concoction that mimicked the drink from the HBO show. We also got to meet and greet the cast of the new movies, Kick-Ass and Prince of Persia, alongside super stars Nick Cage and Jake Gyllenhaal. Their movies look very promising. We're hoping they rock the box-office when they come out in the next few months.

Well, that's it from the convention floor. Catch you all next year! Peace.
