October 24, 2012 is quickly approaching, and with it the Playstation Network and Xbox Live release of Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core+ is nearly upon us, of course this is merely a preface for the newly tuned Accent Core+R! But as great of a game as Guilty Gear is, it can also be a very complex one, and while veterans have spent years mastering these tricks and tactics, a whole new generation of players are coming in blind. Luckily this knowledge can be passed on and hopefully aide up and comers!

Recently posters have been debating on exactly what a "1 Frame Jump" is and it's applications, and thanks to poster Horokei we have an excellent video which shows and explains the mechanic in-depth. Although it's shown using #Reload the premise is still prevalent and existent in Accent Core, see the video below:

We've known for awhile now that Skullgirls is heading to the PC and that the game (both for consoles and PC) would be getting some adjustments, well recently Mike Z has shown off builds of said changes on The Mix-Up and even more recently on Ultra Chen TV.

Hit the jump for the enormous list of changes and modifications, with significant altering of the game's "Infinite Protection System" and the ingenious addition of a true tournament comprehensive mode! But keep in mind things are still changing and nothing has been finalized, that includes a release date, Mike Z is hoping for mid-June but we'll have to wait to see how realistic that window is.

The only thing more fun than playing Skullgirls is listening to the lyrical beats and rhythms which ooze just as much style and personality as the game's artwork, and having famed composer Michiru Yamane helm a few tracks certainly helps as well!

It's been a long time coming, but soon the beautiful indie fighter Skullgirls will finally see release, and the first step toward completion comes with the revelation of the final character.

Double is a mysterious entity that often takes on the deceptive guise of a smiling Catholic nun, but her true form is that of a mass of flesh and organs. Double is able to take on many shapes and forms and naturally this reflects in her gameplay, most notably when she assumes the form of another character and uses modified (and unseen) moves.
