Shoryuken.com has quickly become known as the single biggest and best community of fighting game enthusiasts, especially as its tournament organizers have grown the competitive scene into a huge business where fans can come together and test their skills, but that won't keep the site from expanding the field with a new eBook.
The competitive spirit doesn't get in the way of unity and in that way, From Masher to Master: The Educated Video Game Enthusiast's Fighting Game Primer (Super Book Edition) offers up tips and tricks for anyone hoping to perfect a quarter-circle turn.
"I was tired of meeting people who would always say 'I want to learn how to play fighting games' in the same way that people usually say 'I've been meaning to start going to the gym,'" writes author Patrick Miller.
The book details why you'd want to learn how to play Street Fighter, "Everything You Need to Know About Fighting Games", combo introductions, and more. For details and a download of the book for free, visit Shoryuken.com.
