Capcom has announced this morning that MotoGP 10/11 is in development at Monumental Games and will be released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March 2011.

We're promised a new handling system and improved physics, with the season's roster updated via DLC shortly after the beginning of the year's events.

Players will be aided by a new customisable assist feature allowing for simulation and arcade fans to enjoy the experience.

Multiplayer features include local co-op, where a second player can jump in mid-race as another player's teammate. Meanwhile online races will support up to 20 riders plus spectators.

"MotoGP 10/11 will offer gamers the most true to life gameplay of the series so far," said Capcom's Michael Pattison, "We hope that fans will be pleased with the improvements made to next year’s title, allowing gamers to adapt their playing experience to suit their individual racing style."

I'm sure the irony won't be lost on many of you. The game that required the most elaborate controller in console history is to return - but you won't need a controller to play it.

Capcom has announced Steel Battalion Heavy Armor for Xbox 360 which will support the Kinect motion control system.

Players will control mechs using their own body movement - not unlike we've seen in the Avatar movie.

I'd ready your socks, if I were you, because this is about to rock 'em.

This action-packed trailer not only reveals Tron Bonne as a playable character, but, more importantly, features Captain America kicking arse. It's certainly the most tantalising trailer we've seen come out of MvC3 so far, so be sure to check it out after the jump.

Capcom has announced that Kazuhiko Abe has been appointed as CEO an President of CE Europe and Capcom USA. He'll be responsible for the overall management of all North American and European operations. He originally joined the company in 2003 and rose to CEO of Capcom Japan in 2006.

"Abe-san has proven to be an invaluable asset to Capcom," said Kenzo Tsujimoto, chairman and chief executive officer of Capcom Co., Ltd. "His experience of over seven years with Capcom can only benefit the operations in North America and Europe and strengthen the relationships between the Japanese and Pan-Western territories."

Capcom has released two new videos showing Dormammu and Viewtiful Joe getting their fight on in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds - although not against each other.

This is the first footage we've seen of the characters since their appearance in the game was announced earlier this week, and boy, can they hold their own. Both videos show spectacular fighting styles and insanely flamboyant combos, despite Joe's comparatively meagre stature, which looks to make settling on a favourite character come release day even harder than it already was. But what a journey it'll be.

Secure your socks before clicking through.

Capcom has just revealed that you'll be able to buy a PC version of Lost Planet 2 from October 15th.

However you don't have to wait that long to find out if your PC can run the game. The publisher has teamed up with Nvidia to release this Lost Planet 2 benchmark tool.

I suppose I'd better switch the SLi on then (which is going to bugger up my ASIO driver again I expect). There's a reason console games sell so well.
