Street Fighter IV Arcade Sticks Announced
It's surprising that Capcom decided to go with an American company like Mad Catz to release their Street Fighter peripherals; negative comments on Kotaku aside though, I'm pretty sure that the guys at Capcom really know what they're doing.
People never got excited about Pelican accessories until their PS2 to PS3 converter hit store shelves, and now they are coveted items on eBay. I look forward to seeing what Mad Catz has in store for us!

Star Wars: The Force Unleased Demo to be Released on Thursday
We'll finally be able to see if floating in the air and shooting lightning bolts is indeed a part of The Apprentice's repertoire.
I don't suppose we'll see any fork-wielding Lizardmen in the game, though.
On August 21st, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 owners will be able to unleash the Force in the comfort of their own homes by downloading the demo of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed from Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. The demo gives players a taste of one of the early levels in the game: the TIE Fighter Construction Facility, under siege by a Jedi General named Rahm Kota. The Secret Apprentice has been sent by Darth Vader to hunt down and destroy the General, but is also told that, in order to remain a secret, he is to leave no witnesses.
Also included in the demo is a tutorial intended to teach players how to use their Force Grip power.
