Help Me's Post-EVO2014 Interview with JDCR

Shortly after his big win at EVO 2014, Help Me took the time to catch up with the EVO champion JDCR and discuss his thoughts on the tournament itself and participating in it. Topics like which players at the tournament he was looking out for, thoughts going up against certain characters and interesting matches get discussed in the interview up on the Tekken Mura website. Since it's in complete Japanese though, I went ahead and roughly translated it for everyone to read.

Tekken 2: Kazuya's Revenge Live Action Movie Gets New Trailers and Poster

A few things have changed since we last heard of the new live action Tekken movie. The official title of the film is now 'TEKKEN 2 KAZUYA's REVENGE' and it is set to screen in cinemas on August 21st next month. The previous titles of 'Tekken A Man Called X' and 'Tekken: Revenge Of Kazuya' were seemingly placeholder titles for the project. Besides that, everything else seems pretty much the same. We now have a new movie poster and trailers to show everyone since they've made their way online now and since the film is a prequel to the 2010 live action Tekken movie, it may actually try to distance itself from Tekken's original story. You can see the poster and movie details below. The 'Tekken 2: Kazuya's Revenge' trailers are courtesy of the Manly Movie website.

Double Cup MASTERCUP W1 CLIMAX2014 Niconico Archive

For those that missed out on watching the recent Double Cup tournament in Japan will be pleased to know that all 9 and a half hours of Tekken from the tournament's niconico stream is now live for everyone to watch on my YouTube channel. This will no doubt be of great use to those that wanted to watch the tournament but couldn't because of niconico kicking everyone out for not being a premium member. Video quality is typical niconico quality (640x360) but you can later catch the official YouTube archives of the matches in this tournament with better video quality through the Mastercup Youtube channel when it eventually uploads them. Top 8 of the event starts at around the 7 hour mark with the grand finals at the 9 hour and 15 minute mark. Enjoy.

Bas Gros Poing's Interviews With Harada On The Development Of Tekken X Street Fighter

French Gaming site Bas Gros Poing conducted several interviews with Tekken Project's lead producer Katushiro Harada and Michael Murray back in 2011, 2012 & 2013 on the development of Tekken X Street Fighter. The interviews were in complete French and published on the site but for the sake of sharing this series of interviews, the Bas Gros Poing YouTube channel recently uploaded a compilation of the interviews making it more accessible to everyone. It's a pretty insightful set of interviews and may be of interest to those that like to follow the development of Bandai Namco's upcoming Tekken X Street Fighter game. Worth mentioning however, the interviews are quite old now so the information inside them may be out of date.
