Community Skullgirls just keeps looking better.

Get ready for a new fighting game to make a name for itself.

Skullgirls hasa had my attention since I first seen it here, http://gouki.com/Story/Details/skullgirls-is-coming-this-year, and I keep getting more interested each time I see it.

I love the hand drawn look that they are giving it and the characters all have some over the top style of their own.  But all fighting games depend on the mechanics more than anything.  They have plans to prevent infinite loops, you will have an option for tag team fights or a single player that's beefed up in vs mode.  They are using the Street Fighter style 6 button input.  But the combos will be easier to pull off than in games like SSF IV.  So I can't wait to give this a try.

What do you think?  Worth a try?  Total waste of time?  Don't be a Jimmy, let's hear what you think.

Yea, when the game detects an infinite, you have the ability to do a Burst (GG style). Really cool game, But I don't want to pay much for it.

Hopefully it will get a decent price since it will be a download, but I'm sure we'll find out soon.

Thought it looked cool, but I don't know if I'll get it since it's download only.

So far the official site has stories for only 3 girls with 5 blank spaces. You see a few more characters through videos and pictures, but the line-up is looking pretty slim. It still says coming this summer, but I'm not seeing a solid date anywhere.

Here is an interview with Mike Z about the character design. There is a big secret revealed, but he does give a lot of insight into how these characters developed.
