I have a feeling Namco won't be as bipartisan with their engine as Capcom is. SFxT is a solid mix of the games, but TxSF may be Tekken with fireballs. There's really very little Tekken needs to import from SF that they haven't already dabbled in. So short of a wildly different play style, I imagine TxSF will be more Tekken than anything. It's just a feeling.
We'll see after a while. |
Play MvC3, Fignuts. I don't think I played you yet.
|
Dude, you were the first person I played, remember?
|
Nah, I really don't recall...
well in any case my main team is different so I must face you. |
I only one one match then, and it was only a week after release. I havn't played much since then, so it wouldn't really be fun at all.
Unless they release a 1v1 mode, I'll be keeping it local. Unless I play Funky cause I'm sure he's neglected the game also, for his oblivion fix. |
Win.

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/eUP7EfNTBqc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Animation's rough and you can tell certain assets have some ways to go, but you can get a feel for how the flow is different from SSF4. More freedom in combos but more reserved than I initially thought (this is early gameplay though). As a Sakura player I can tell you charging attacks opens up some fun tactics - so I'm glad it up for everyone. You can also see how grapplers have an easier time then in SSF4. Looks good more than a year from release. Take your time, Ono. |
Looks a little slower than Street Fighter usually is to me.
Lol, most unenthusiatic Sonic Boom ever. |
Gonna rock that Cammy/Nina for the win.
|
I think I've got a good shot with this game. Grapplers can grab people as they jump away, the game seems a little slower and Tekken characters can dodge projectiles. If I can get to grips with Marduk, I'm set for half my team already.
|
This game will be more offensive in general. None of that SSF4 'turtlers delight' mess. This is something I can get behind, reminds me of a KoF game.
|
Loving the stages thus far. So much going on in the background that I'm getting distracted from the matches.
Character wishlist: Street Fighter: Guy, Cammy, Geki, Ibuki, Fei, Rolento, Sodom, Alex, Elena, Yun/Yang, Remy, D. Dark Tekken: Lee Chaolan, Marshall Law, Eddy, Hwoarang, Raven If they go outside of the game series but remain within the games' "universes", how about a Slammasters character or 2 on Capcom's side, and maybe a Soul Calibur character for Namco? |
SoulCalibur characters would be crossing timelines and I don't think they're going 'that' far with mixing things up. Slam Masters exists in the Street Fighter-Final Fight universe so that's fair game. Poison and Hugo looks like a lock. Bruce would be a great rival for Adon or Sagat. Plenty of rival opportunities actually.
|
Wasn't even aware SC took place in the Tekken Universe.
That would explain Yoshimitsu in both games, though. |
Yeah SC is pre-historic Tekken universe. Aside from Yoshimitsu and the Williams sister's Tekken 5 endings they never really toyed with that.
|
I'm sure Gief will be in, to rival King and Marduk. Rufus is a possibility to offset Bob. Jin is a near lock as well. I would expect to see Yoshi too.
|
Been wanting to see some Saturday Night Slam Masters action for a while now. Even if it's a foray into the fighting genre instead of a new arcadey wrestling game, I'll take it.
|
Ono tease (confirms, imo) a 4plyr mode.
There's very little reason not to do this. The pace allows for 4plyrs, and they don't have a hang up about fan friendly modes like the Vs team. Also Ono can't let Harada 1-up him on this tip with SFxT being similar to Tekken Tag. I call Khuntry. |
He's also said to watch the character trailer carefully to see a few hints at what is going to be in the game. Someone pointed out the Dino stage has them fighting on a bridge and then on the grass meaning leveled stages like in the old MK games.
If you look at the start of the trailer with Kazuya (If that's the Tekken guys name) talking Japanese to Ryu & Ken, you see the bridge hanging in the background, broken. So it looks like it'll give way after so many high impact slams and we'll fall to the ground. |
The cinematic trailer hints at Devil Kazuya and Evil Ryu (I'm thinking bosses), and I wonder if the Jin name drop means he's in (thematically I don't know how he'd fit in, honestly).
It would seem that this is the Tekken 6 era with Nina working with Kazuya and one of Jin's Tekken Force soldiers being abused by Kazuya. With Abel in, we can safely conclude the SF4 era on the SF side (although the SF4 roster is more or less a generational dream match deal itself). Possible rivalries: Xiaoyu/Asuka vs Sakura Lili vs Karin Raven vs Guy Leo vs Makoto Steve vs Balrog/Dudley |
Also Balrog and Dee Jay are illegitimate Mishima sons and want the Zaibatsu.
Kazyua went through a black girl phase. |
|

|
Yeah, completely expected to be honest. They'd be crazy not to include cammy with Nina already in.
|
It's cool they're starting to reveal characters but it's not exactly the most hype inducing reveal. No game play, no music or anything.
I'm hoping for Zangief vs Kuma. |
We'll definitely see zangief I think. Especially since he missed mvc 3, but kuma is a bit of a longshot. Yeah, zangief wrestles bears, but it makes more sense for king to be his rival in the game.
|
Not the best reveal trailer compared to SSF4 and MvC3's series of trailers but considering who we're talking about...
*giggles* |
Have they said how big the roster is going to be? Because I figure if we've got 40ish characters You could go to town on obscure, but otherwise good for the story type characters. Eagle anyone?
|
Not sure, but given the current climate I'm betting mid to high 30s. 40s is the new maximum, but the SF4 team doesn't seem the type to consider huge rosters a selling point. I can imagine 30s at first and seasonal DLC up to early 40s.
They have a shit ton of SF4 models to transfer, so they'd only have to draw and program Tekken characters and SF characters who didn't appear in SF4 (which are some SF1/Alphas, Final Fighters, and many 3rd Strikers). I'd love to see Karin, and for some reason Maki. Other than that, like MvC3, I don't need to ask for much. I'm happy. |
Looking for a T. Hawk appearance. Seems unlikely, but I'd love it.
|
Cammy :heart: :heart: :heart:
|
Another character is revealed for the game and this one didn't even get a video. Just an image. Come on Capcom, you'll try and hype us up about Evil Ryu in SSFIV but not hype us about characters in a game people have wanted for over a decade?
The new character: SPOILER: show |
Cool. I guess.
Yeah there doesn't seem to be a hype train with the character reveals, I guess we got spoiled with full fledged trailers showing a character whoopin ass to his theme song. I mean this says nothing about the game, but it conveys lack of interest on Capcom's part, imo. GET HYPE CAPCOM |
Bob was revealed in the video where 10 characters were revealed.
|
Bob Saget

Ok, going to make a guess that the final roster will total 20 (not including any DLC, if there is any).
My (flimsy) reasoning is this. Here is the Japanese site for the game. It has the characters revealed so far, minus the teaser characters. If it's anything like SSFIV and MvC3's site, all the characters should fit into that little area. I tried it in paint by copy/pasting and it fits perfectly. http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/6455/twenty.png In other news, Ono seems to be taking requests for characters on Twitter. No idea if it'll make any difference. |
Pfft, it won't make a difference. He's just having fun.
We better get at least 4 characters at E3. Ono already said there will be a new build. Should get some 3rd Strike info too. |
Requests are the usual. Karin, Poison and Elena.
We're getting 3rd Strike info at E3, Capcom said so a couple weeks ago. It's onmEventhubs, somewhere. |
Whoever got modeled for SF4 but didn't make it is a sure bet, an advantage of SFxT having the same art style sans updated shaders. If I didn't know better I'd say Ono's team played a good hand.
|
I am a little worried this will be SFIV vs Tekken. I want characters from other games. Let's have R.Mika, Eagle, Sodom, Joe or anyone else that wasn't in SFIV.
I can see the idea being to make the retail cast pretty predictable and then to suddenly reveal a bunch of characters from other Street Fighters as DLC at 800 a character. |
There will never be a 10$ fighting game DLC character. No company, so far, is that crazy. 5$ at best.
|
That's what I meant. Whatever they charged for Jill and Shuma.
|
Yeah, 5$ characters all day. The more people ask the more likely Capcom will make them premium.
|
When fighting games are demoed at events, like SFxT will be in a few weeks, they still use good ol fashion How 2 Play stickers like arcade machines did. Here's a peek at SFxT's stickers ready to print.

Also, was that last vid hworang? |
Yeah, pretty sure it was.

I can see it.
*sips tea* |
So Capcom decides to spice up the PSV version of the game by adding a guest character who has shit to do with SF or TK (or Capcom and Namco for that matter). I don't think Cole fits in any shape or form (seems like a Marvel Vs guest character if anything).
|
ugh
|
Yeah, Cole would be great in a VS game. Definitely an odd fit here though.

That's Asuka Kazama at the end. Nice.

New screens:
SPOILER: show And so we're clear... http://media.eventhubs.com/images/20...xtscreen09.jpg ...Get used to this. |
Don't worry. If certain characters make it in, I'll be too busy plowing Cammys skull into the ground to get used to anything.
|
If Cammy can't hash it she'll have a partner who can.
I think I'll love this game. |
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo pumped for this. MvC 3 was a little too hyper for my taste. This is great though.
|
Lili's hot legs were caught in the trailer. She's totally in. Along with Asuka, this promises Sakura or Karin. Teenage girls love fighting.

Bullet points from an E3 interview Ono did.
Quote:
|
Zafina would be a great fit for this game.
Also, hoping we don't get both Fei Long and Law. Feel like that would be a waste. |
PC version confirmed too
|
Quote:
Otherwise yeah, fuck "clones". |
Fei doesn't play like Law, not even conception wise. Next person who says that I will murder. Sick of hearing it.
|
Dragunov would be a good counterpart to Abel.
I'd love to see Feng in it. I'm guessing Bryan Fury will be in, and maybe Alisa, just so they can have someone on Tekken's side that can throw fireballs (assuming Bryan will have a gun projectile) |
They will have a similar style if they are in the same game. We already have both Ryu and Ken. I'd like to see more varied selections from here on out.
|
Elaborate. How are they similar? Bear in mind who you are talking to.

Quote:
I realize they may play differently, but given how many characters there are in the tekken and street fighter universes, and that in comparison, there is very limited space in the game, I would like to see as varied and diverse a roster as possible. I'm already kinda bummed that ken made it in. |
Makoto and Jin do karate, they should not be in the game together?
King and Gief are professional wrestlers. Karin and Julia have similar style concepts. I mean... |
I don't see the need to have two of every fucking style.
If it were up to me, no, I'd pick the more popular of the two and move on. |
That would cut off opportunities. And in any case Street Fighter's style, and even Tekken, has a knack for having similar concepts that play very differently. Tekken has three Mishima 'shotos', two King styles, Williams sisters are derivative of one style. Asuka and Jun share the Kazama style. Eddy and Christie have the excact same movelist. Street Fighter has shotos, but we know they play differently.
Doesn't seem like something that would all of a sudden hurt this game. :-\ |
I just think given the extremely large pool of characters they have to choose from, that it would be a bit of a waste to have lots of similar styles, when there might be other characters who didn't get picked that could bring something entirely different to the table.
|
I like the idea of at least one of each style on each "team".
SF wrestler vs Tekken wrestler SF Boxer vs Tekken Boxer etc. |
Looking for:
Tekken: Lei Christie Forest/Marshal Law Devil Jin Street Fighter: Karin Sakura Glad to see Chun Li, Cammy and Ken. May pick up Nina and Asuka after dropping them in Tekken. Otherwise nobody in Tekken side appeals to me. |
Yoshimitsu could be a lot of fun.
Probably a definite to be in, as well. |
Him and one of the Jacks are a lock.
|
Quote:
It seems like they are probably going to go that route. I'll still love the game if they do. It's all personal preference anyway. I'll bet money that if eddie or christie makes it in, we'll see Elena. |

You know who would be an interesting 360 exclusive? Joanna Dark (not the PDZ Joanna Dark, though). I'm not sure what moves she could have. Maybe she could have a cloak move, like Reptile from MK. A charging projectile in the form of the Mauler gun. A Chun-Li/Honda style "rapid attack" using a Reaper gun (close range only, like it's secondery function). A knife based combo. N-Bomb proximity mine to leave lying around. Not sure on what her Ultra (or whatever they're calling it) would be. Maybe that's more of an MvC3 character moveset. Actually, she's sounding a little like a reskin of Chris with a cloak move to me. I'm sure they could change it up enough that it was different. |
I'm thinking Cortana from the Halo series. Nobody would see that coming.
|
If they have the balls to put in Blinx or the guy from Grabbed by the Ghoulies, I will pre-order right now.

Fulgore?

They wouldn't blow something like a KI character being on a modern console unless it was a proper KI game. |
Fulgore would have made a lot of sense for Mortal Kombat reboot but Microsoft and Rare no longer care about the KI series to even attempt allowing a guest character.
Jago would have been a funnier choice due to all the ninjas already in Mortal Kombat. |
