Mike Zaimont gives us a great piece on GGPO and how it can enhance your online experience. Conveniently enough, opponent ping times are displayed so you won't have to guess what 3-4 "bars" actually means as has become the norm in the genre. If you prefer, you can of course use the suggested settings that the game will offer you depending on you and your opponent's connection.

There will be eight characters at launch but aside from sharing the same health ratings they are totally unique and all equipped with the tools to compete. Chain combos, similar to those seen in Vampire Savior, assists, tag ins/outs, snapbacks, level 1/3 supers and alpha counters are also all central to the gameplay. Recognizable tools such as the huge "Marvel vs Capcom" super jumps are closer to the ground and pushblock is present. Standout features include but are not limited to holding down the start button in order to prevent accidental pauses and great button config options that allow you to customize your buttons whether you are in a match or the character select screen. This six button, 2D fighter aims to garner a following among both veterans and newcomers alike with a plethora of great ideas. Skullgirls is the culmination of nearly a decade's worth of work from Mike Zaimont (project lead, proprietary engine designer, well known tournament player), Alex Ahad (creative director) and the talented developers at Reverge Labs. Can this devastating cycle be put to rest or will history repeat itself? Welcome to the world of Skullgirls! In response, many have mobilized with varying intent: from the destruction of the Skull Heart to using the artifact to their own ends. Rumors have surfaced about the appearance of a new Skullgirl. Queen Nancy Renoir of the Canopy Kingdom found the Skull Heart and wished for peace, but found herself transformed into a fearful instrument of her twisted wish… a pale and lovely tempest, a beautiful nightmare – the Skullgirl! Three nations had to stop their war to team up to defeat the former queen – in the end her wish was granted, as an uneasy peace formed following her demise. Seven years ago, the world was engulfed in the Grand War. If she has an impure heart, which so far includes all who have ever tried to use it, even a selfless wish will be twisted in the vilest of ways. This legendary artifact has the power to grant a young woman’s wishes. In a world where powerful police states are constantly on the verge of bloody conflict, the influence of organized crime is omnipresent, science has run wild and Eldritch Abominations are on the prowl, one fiendish artifact stands above it all, the Skull Heart.
