Tekken x Street Fighter - the one "That Other Company" is making

[PsychoJosh]

Always bet on Harada-san.

[PsychoJosh]

thats actually a parody vid showing how stupidly lame it will be if it was just like tekken but with street fighters in it

like someone said the moves in 2D games create the character. what you guys seem to be expecting baffles me

What are you talking about? The Shoryuken works perfectly in that kind of style. I expect it to function as a sort of OTG.

I like Q but f hakan, character just looks dumb however his playstyle looks fun and his dialogue is funny with a hint of seriousness.

I hope they put the twins in. They have a very cool distinct fighting style and are not in sfxt.

For some reason I can imagine them working very well in a 3d plane with all those mantis slashes, shoulders, lunge punches, palms etc.
They also don’t have crazy projectile stuff that would be hard to integrate into 3D

[Dander]

They should have a fuck ton of different Ryus and Akumas to counter Jin and Ogre

[FaceMeAndBeBroken]

why must namco also use old white man Ryu?

[Zebster]

Man bunch of multivoters suddenly, lili moved up a huge number of places since the last time I checked, and Ingrid moved up to second. Too bad for those voters that those kind of abuse with the system was already considered and will be uncounted from the final tally.

GIVE ME A DICTATOR THAT DOESN"T SUCK!

Harada says Tekken X Street Fighter is a 'long term' project

Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada has explained that Tekken X Street Fighter, the long awaited pairing of Namco and Capcom’s flagship fighter series, is still in the works, and that the game is a ‘long term’ project.

Speaking at a pre-Tokyo Game Show briefing in which Harada was promoting Tekken Revolution, the recently released free-to-play installment of the series, Harada said that work is continuing on Tekken X Street Fighter.

“We do have assets created and some of the materials,” Harada told Eurogamer. “It’s just that we’re looking at the circumstances and what direction people are going in, what platform as there’s a change in the market. I’m thinking long term about that.”

Street Fighter X Tekken, the Capcom produced first episode of the pairing, suffered from poor sales. Given Namco’s embracing of free-to-play, with the latest Tekken and Soul Calibur both taking up the business model, could Tekken X Street Fighter go the same way?

“I don’t see that the entire genre’s going to go that way,” said Harada. “There are some fans that perhaps would rather buy a package and be done with it, and play as much as they like.”

Tekken Revolution came out in June on PS3, and currently there’s no Xbox 360 version. Microsoft’s historically been reluctant to host free-to-play games, but with the arrival of World of Tanks and the announcement of Killer Instinct on Xbox One it’s beginning to soften its approach. So could Tekken Revolution end up on Microsoft hardware?

“The circumstances have changed a bit,” said Harada. “It seems they’ve opened up to that model since Xbox One, and after we released the PlayStation Network beta they were kind of nervous and expressed an interest. We don’t have concrete plans, but there’s a possibility that we’ll do it in the future.”

I’m guessing the lack of positive response to XTekken made Namco cool it on development.

[OrochiDemon]

Theyll wait till Ultra is out and how well other fighting games sell to determine when to release it. Having the title include “No DLC Edition” will probably help too.

[Ki_Shima]

Since the beginning dude. You have to be super to survive a death drop.

Shit.
For some reason i always thought they were only Extremely Good Fighters.
But now that i’ve seen Heihachi powerbombing Kazuyan on Jin through about 4 floors my mind is kinda broken

all tekken characters are super strong they’re fighting a giant android and a cyborg that broke a tank

TEK KEN? IRON FIST?

[tataki]

This gonna be the duke nukem forever of fighting games.

This gonna be the duke nukem forever of fighting games.

Nah that’s Mark of the Wolves Special it got some press and a screen shot. There isn’t even a trailer for TxSF.

[Khaoz77]

I personally feel like they are still trying to figure out what kind of direction gameplay wise they will go with this game. With the addition of Street Fighter characters, they are trying to make it unique.

I was thinking the Tekken crew could give SF characters a legit fighting style instead of them relying on their fireballs, or other special moves. Like make Ryu use legit Shotokan Karate, and Chun-Li use legit Tai-Chi with some unique kicking attacks.

[OrochiDemon]

They just need to bite the bullet and go 3D with it.
