While it was not quite as fulfilling as giving another player a brutal beat down, the car-destroying minigame in Street Fighter II served as a sort of calming distraction from the constant fist, foot, and fireball on flesh action. We haven't seen it in any of the recent iterations of the series, but as shown in the latest issue of Famitsu, it may be making a return in Super Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360) along with the barrel smashing bonus stage.

Japanese gaming mag Famitsu comes up big once again with a whole bunch of images from the scene's hottest. Kotaku managed to get their hands on a whole bunch of scans off their latest issue, and we've got info on the latest character for Final Fantasy XIII (Xbox 360, PS3).

Blood, guts, and exploding heads will be decorating the screens of TVs in Japan next year as Koei Tecmo has announced a new video game entry in the post-apocalyptic martial arts franchise, Fist of the North Star, called Hokuto Musou. Blurry scans after the jump.

It's time to meet the family. V-Jump Magazine's latest edition features some scans for Square Enix's Final Fantasy XIII (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3). What is interesting, however, is the introduction of a new character going by the name of Serah Farron. Who is she? Someone definitely important enough.

As promised, Square Enix names yet another character in Final Fantasy XIII (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3), and this info comes through Japanese gaming mag, V-Jump. With the short Sephiroth-silver hair (yes, it's a new color, Sephiroth-silver), the newly-named character is somewhat reminiscent of Loz from Advent Children. His name? You'll have to read on to find out.

Apart from the Metal Gear feature I posted about earlier, Famitsu also scored an interview with Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura. The Final Fantasy Versus XIII director shared a few bits of info about the new Final Fantasy games currently in development.

Don't worry, this one has nothing to do with Dragon Ball Evolution. This is straight-up real Dragon Ball. Anyway, Gamekyo managed to get their hands on a few scans of a Japanese gaming mag, where it was confirmed that Namco Bandai is releasing Dragon Ball Raging Blast in Japan for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

We've got a huge fanfare for all you Modern Warfare fans! The recent Game Informer issue which has a huge 10-page feature on Modern Warfare 2 have been scanned and put online! Remember all those details which were summarized a few days back (co-op details, live patching, game length, etc.)? That's in the mag's new issue.

Huge update for you guys. Well, it's not entirely new since these are scans of a Dengeki feature we've already reported on a few days back, but I'm sure you guys will appreciate bulk loads of Final Fantasy XIII (PS3, Xbox 360) screenshots, even if they're in Japanese. The feature walks us through the back story and setting of Square Enix's game, the characters, and the battle system. What better way to catch up on stuff we already know, right?

Remember the other week when a rumored mysterious screenshot supposedly hinted at a new Square Enix game? Well, we got that screenshot now! And true enough, the guy shown in the picture is most definitely not Sephiroth!
