Fact: We are huge fans of Daigo Umehara (we love Tokido and Infiltration, but Daigo has a special place in our hearts). Fact: We were amazed by Infiltration’s performance at both EVO 2012 and Street Fighter 25th Anniversary tournaments. Fact: We were disappointed with Daigo’s performance at EVO 2013 (as he was making the same mistakes over and over again). Fact: During PAX Prime’s and TGS’ SSF4: AE events (hosted by Mad Catz), Daigo beat both Infiltration and Xian. Now some may say that those events were not as big as EVO, but what’s important here is that Daigo has come back from the dead. Not only that, but EVO 2014 will be more interesting than ever (and we are curious to see what Infiltration and Xian will come up with to defeat Daigo). Daigo has also beaten Justin Wong, and you can find all the aforementioned matches below. Enjoy!

YouTube’s member ‘TombStoneHD’ has leaked a new video for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, showcasing some multiplayer action from what seems to be a beta build of Ubisoft’s upcoming title. Do note that this video does not make justice to the game’s MP mode, however it will give an idea of what this mode will actually be. In short, it feels similar to the one featured in AC3, so good news for those that liked it and bad news if you found it underwhelming. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is currently planned for release later this year on the PC, though we do not have any specific ETA. Enjoy!
