By now, with little doubt, I am sure your hands are perpetually stuck in joystick-deathgrip-mode from countless hours of Street Fighter 4 and maybe a bit of BlazBlue. Well, unfortunately (for your hands at least) I have got some news that most certainly is not going to help the situation - a totally new, totally free, 2d fighter from former CAPCOM employee Sugeno Tomoaki - a little jam that goes by the name of Vanguard Princess.
Why a game that has this much effort dumped into it is being given away, I have no idea. Perhaps the cutesty all-girl character roster isn't marketable enough, or perhaps Mr. Tomoaki is just a cool dude. Either way, we, the diserning gamers of the world, have reason to rejoice - fighting games are kickass and free fighting games are TOTALLY kickass. Need some convincing? Ok brah. Just peep this video.
The game runs in Windows, but before you start whining about not having a joystick for PC, remember that there are USB adaptors for both PS3 and XboX 360 joysticks. So really, you have no excuse not to check this bad boy out. You can download Vanguard Princess from this all-Japanese site.
Expect a full Blast Heroes review in the near future, until then, enjoy the hand-cramps!!!
