Early look at Ryu from Namco's Tekken X Street Fighter

meh, too realistic for my tastes but he certainly fits in with the tekken style. has some great details too.

Good, he looks decent. Still have to somehow not make him suck in the Tekken gameplay…

kanedaaaaaaaaaa

Of course that’s not very hard, though. Here’s hoping they stay as far away from SF4 character design as possible! I’m liking this direction :tup:

I can actually bare looking at his face unlike with his SFIV model…so yeah good stuff so far.

Ryu looks friggin awesome! I’m loving the newly-shaved stubble. Here’s hoping they make Ken look just as good. Also, Cammy is gonna be friggin hot! = D

Looks like Tito Ortiz’s model from Undisputed 2010

This prototype shits on SF4’s ryu by a landslide, it is not even close.

i lol hard when i remember how some idiot said that the sf4 graphics were the best that they have seen, and seeing now how this really early 3d model shits on the sf4 graphics make me lol even harder

True that!

I was pretty disappointed with the SF4/SSF4 graphics, although, I understand that with the extras they crammed into the games that the graphics probably had to be toned down a bit for smoother play. I miss 2d sprites!

He doesn’t look like Ryu, he just looks like some Tekken bloke cosplaying as Ryu.

Idk, Ryu always looked ugly as sin since SF2, this version of Ryu looks too “handsome” I guess.

P.S- The game is shaping up to be pretty nice though if a prototype Ryu looks like that, I mean SF4’s prototype Ryu looked like a zombie.

Needs a bit more muscle. I mean, Ikeno’s art notwithstanding, Ryu’s always been on the bulky side.

Are we all looking at the same model, because I’m seeing it and I think it looks awful. Ryu’s head is too thin and slender, and his chin is too sharp. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a lot of detail, but it’s on a pretty bad model.

I support this build. Namco bodies have more realism (semi-realistic musculature for people that weight train regularly…even though Ryu doesn’t and should be a great deal smaller and weaker than Ken, who DOES), while capcom tries the anime route (mega-huge muscles). And get this…Ryu is supposed to weigh 150lbs. Somebody needs to talk to Capcom about that…either beef up his stats or shrink his sprite. Seriously: everybody’s build in the sf series makes sense except Ryu’s. He barely eats, never weight trains (except his ending with Oro), and mostly engages in cardio activity (fighting).

idk man, tekken ryu looks like he’s going to go cry when he gets hit in his face.

dude looks prettier than vega, lol

don’t really like it. the girls will most likely look a lot better in the tekken version though.

It’s looking good, HOWEVER, I think his face needs to look more square-y. Right now it’s a bit too long and un-Ryu-like. he needs to be shorter than jin, to enhance his almost bulky figure too.

Also, I hope they end up giving him a really baggy gi.

Not liking it…it doesnt feel that Ryu to me. I like his VS screen much better.
