Street Fighter x Tekken test footage

[Lennysaurus]

as a tekken-only player myself (and i'm aware i'm not welcomed here) i refuse to play a tekken character that can't side step or apply ground wake up oki etc, while i don't see how you guys will enjoy playing a sf character that doesn't have cool (really?) looking ultra animations or missing a shoryuken means you get punished with half of your life gone.

Woah woah woah dude!!!  Your super duper absolutely welcome here.  I'd love to know why you feel you aren't cause in truth we have wanted serious tekken discussion here for a long time, but the Tekken community is a seriously hard nut to crack.  IIRC you're Jerry from hamilton aren't you?  i used to play you every now and then when you'd come to auckland and played you once when I went to hamilton back during T4 days.

We are running a Tekken tournament over the weekend of the 21st and 22nd of August and think it'd be a great to get some guys there.

Also, I agree that this game looks like shit, I think I mentioned that earlier.  The characters look like abomination, and the tag ultras look fucking ridiculous.  But its all opinion... some people will love it I guess.

I agree, that comment bummed me out. I have no interest in Tekken myself but would be more than happy to see all the Tekken players here as well. I watched the T6 finals at Evo and really enjoyed it even if I didn't understand half of it.

What you meant to say is "Damn that looks like that clunky piece of shit SF EX3 with it's retarded tag supers" right?

I think that the idea behind the game engine could be nice.  Rolling getups, chain combos, reminiscent of Vamp saviour and having a tag system.  I'm just not digging the Tekken characters getting bastardised like that, and the team ultras look silly to me.

I think a better idea for a capcom/namco crossover would have been maybe an action RPG or a 3rd person action game or something.  Maybe even something more in the vein of Power stone or smash bro's, but in terms of a fighting game I think the execution will be difficult.

it's great that we are getting more fighting games, but I personally don't like the "creative" direction this is heading in.  If it gets heaps of play, and ends up being competitively viable then awesome.

Us oldschoolers probably getting nostalgic waves of fail at some of these announcements.   How many times back in the day did we hear about some new fighting game coming out and we all held our breath  waiting for it expecting it to be the next big thing, and then it comes out and is absolute fail. (eg: alpha1, CFJ, SVC Chaos).  ow that fighting games are getting popular again I'm worried about this trend rearing its head again.  My predictions for fail are as follows:

MK9, SxT, TxS

Hope I'm wrong though.

PREDICTIONS FOR AWESOME

MARVEL BABY

Oh shit, fuck Capcom Fighting Jam. I bet Steve is the only person that likes that game.

I hope these games can break down some of the misunderstandings between the Sf and TK communities.

I hope these games can break down some of the misunderstandings between the Sf and TK communities.

Am I the only one in the dark wondering what this misunderstanding is?  Is there even such a thing?  Is it because I play both games?

I don't think Kazuya looks that butchered.  electric Hellsweep to kidney punch looked cool.

Is it because I play both games?

Oh my God. THE MISSING LINK!

[cha]

absolute fail. (eg: alpha1, CFJ, SVC Chaos).

Its the most enjoyable fighting game ever, for single player.

[Pinolicious]

Oh my God. THE MISSING LINK!

Do you play Tekken?

MK9, SxT, TxS

MK9 will rock!
Well I hope so anyway.

[DVS]

MK9 will rock!
Well I hope so anyway.

Me too.....hope they get back to the old school Mk...the last one I played was Ultimate....and maybe one of those 3D shockers.....hopefully this time around they sort it out...

[CrazyMobius]

Do you play Tekken?

I played a bit of Tekken 3 on ps1 but nothing since. I don't enjoy the way the game feels. But I am interested more in the characters after seeing this Street Fighter x Tekken trailor.

My brother Justice made some new stick art designs for those who want to sex up their arcade sticks. (Wow, that sounds wrong). It's SFxT theme this time. Check them out in the link below if you're interested.
