Capcom recently released Final Fight Double Impact on 360 and PS3 which includes the arcade version of Final Fight 1 and Magic Sword.  Final Fight is showing its age a little now but that hasn’t stopped me from beating it a couple of times over and I have to say that Capcom has been doing an awesome job with this and other “retro” titles like the new Megaman games and Bionic Commando Rearmed (which I LOVED – and yes I beat it before they nerfed the difficulty).

The release of Final Fight has something in common with Bionic Commando Rearmed – the music.  While you can listen to the original arcade music you also have the option of listening to updated remixes by Simon Viklund who is also responsible for the awesome BCR soundtrack.  Best of all  is that you can download the soundtrack for free here.

Last night Capcom held their second(?) Capcom FIght Club in NYC.  Hit the jump for pics from the event.

The line wrapped around the block.  I was waaaaaaaaay back, about 2/3 of the way of the total line.  The above view is actually around the corner from the event (taken from my place in line.)

Marvel VS Capcom 2 and the US version of Tatsunoko VS Capcom were playable – Super Street Fighter seemed to be the reason most people came out – though from what I understand it was not playable.

The first level.

The view as you entered the basements main area.

NOT PICTURED – The first 200 people or so in line received gift bags that included a small figure, TVC towel, Ryu headband, Ryu or C.Viper figure, CFC poster, SF comic and a Juri T-Shirt.  A friend of mine had gotten their an hour earlier than I and snagged a bag – I’m sure you can find pics on Capcom Unity or SRK forums but I’ll see if I can update later with pics of his haul.

People seemed to have a good time all-in-all.  I am getting pumped for the US release of Tatsunoko VS Capcom.  They’ve added 4 new characters – Frank West from Dead Rising, Tekkaman Blade (who I was kinda surprised wasn’t in the original), Joe the Condor (So now they have 3/5 Gatchaman characters… kinda feel bad for the 2 that got left out…), and Zero from Megaman X.  The game plays a bit different from other fighters in that there are are basically only 3 attack buttons (versus 3 for punch and 3 for kick).  I found it to be pretty intuitive though.  It feels very much like the spiritual successor to the Marvel VS Capcom games which I was a big fan of.
