First Look a Week Later: Darkstalkers Resurrection w/ FnJimmy & GoukiJones

With all these pro fighting game players in the house I figured I'd get some good footage of Darkstalkers Resurrection. Well, I got is me(goukijones) VS FnJimmy. I've also included some of my random takes from that night.

Before you watch, please allow me to shout out Capcom for sending some codes to giveaway. Plus 1 for Gouki to take a look at the new game. ThaZeroFaReal won a code! I think some Jimmy Chile got the other. Vicko was also in the chat room -I gave another code away during the live #FMIWT stream- I never heard who got the second code.

The title screen is very unique in Darkstalkers Resurrection, you to push select to switch the game version. Apparently (shout out to Arthvader) it's Darkstalkers 2 & 3. Let me be clear Darkstalkers 1 is named Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors. Which is acceptable. Darkstalkers 2 is named Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge. Ridiculous! Then Darkstalkers 3 is just called Darkstalkers 3. WTF?

Here's me playing Jimmy. Or should I say me comboing the crap out of FnFuckin'Jimmy!

Why would I want to go back? The training mode was pretty awesome. While doing the missions, a mirror character will first do the combo on you, so you could see what it looks like. That is cool & a good idea. I couldn't do the second mission with Hsien-Ko. :( It was like, dash in mid-air & then chain 5 hits. What is this Marvel? This is why I play MEAT style in Street Fighter. Hit 'em with the heavies Jimmy. 

Check out Darkstalkers Resurrection if you're some kind of old skool fool, like me. Maybe you'll get a kick out of it. I like the old Street Fighter's. Come to think of it, I need to play more 3s. That's what Darkstalkers Resurrection reminded me of. 

There's a tournament coming up in Las Vegas.

Thanks for watching & reading my nonsense. Vote, comment & share.

I've been having alot of fun with this game myself. the Tutorials and challenges were a great way for me to start getting used to the characters very well. I've decided that, in Night warriors, I'm going to main Donovan and Hisen-Ko, while in Darkstalkers 3, I'll try to Main B.B. Hood and Hisen-Ko.

Also, did you guys know that in Japan, Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge is called Vampire Hunter, and that Darkstalkers 3 is called Vamipire Savior?

Way to cover this story a week later after every other gaming site has already talked about it. :P

Our coverage like that hasn't worked out for us in 3 years. I was just hoping to give you some quick entertainment & let you know that the DR is cool. Maybe we'll play some more tonight.

I'm just joking around man. I like your site for local gaming news/scene info. I usually read DToid for up to the minute gaming news.
