Marvel Vs Gem Pack!
|
It's pretty much what I thought Gems would be when they announced them.

That's my girl.
It seems Cammy and Chun are their rivals, making Karin and Sakura less likely. |
I wouldn't say that exactly. I've not seen any rivals that make much sense other than Ryu and Kazuya, both being "Poster boy" for their game. Screens of rivals show Ryu and Ken vs Kazuya and Nina. Why would Ken want to take on Nina?
I'd have thought Nina would be up against Chun-Li. I expected a more straight forward connection between rivals. Balrog or Dudley vs Steve, Zangief vs Kuma, Rufus vs Bob which is in, judging by the trailer so that's one rivalry I think makes sense. It would probably help if I knew the Tekken stories. |
I know the stories and some rivalries still don't make sense.

More of those videos:
Yoshimitsu & Kuma Vs Ibuki & Raven SPOILER: show Sagat & Dhalsim Vs Kazuya & Nina SPOILER: show Guile & Abel Vs Ryu & Ken SPOILER: show King & Marduk Vs Hwoarang & Steve SPOILER: show Hugo & Julia Vs Kazuya & Nina SPOILER: show Sagat & Abel Vs Ryu & Ken SPOILER: show Hugo & Julia Vs Bob & Steve SPOILER: show |
Pretty sure Guile says "Shit!" when he misses his air grab at 2:19 in the third video. I thought that was a little odd for a SF game.

Really hyped for this. mvc3 is fun in small doses, but is too hectic for my tastes. This might be the sweet spot between mvc3 and ssf4
|
Asuka trailer was taken down. Here is the official upload in HD with better music.

That's what I've been saying. Though I would still probably like this game more if it used the ssfIV engine straight up. |
J-Pop ver. was better, but I dig the Cammy reveal music.
|
Nah, I don't think it fit in with the other trailers with such different music.
They should probably just reveal M.Bison now. You see the Shadowloo insignia on the back of the ship at the end of the Asuka trailer. Plus you see it on a building at the back of the truck stop stage and I think it appears somewhere else. We know he's in, just show us. It would have been cool if we got a brief, vague shot of the driver of the 18-wheeler in the Asuka trailer, even if it was just in the corner of shot for a half a second so they could have hinted towards Sodom. |
The Xbox Marketplace page for the game was updated with new screens. One of which leaks two new characters. One SF and one Tekken. Look at the character portraits.
SPOILER: show |
My brother's gonna freak, those two are favorites of his of both franchises.

New feature incoming.

|
So the stream went on and it's finished now. A lot of people asked at the end what the new feature would be and the guys doing the stream said they had no idea what Ono was talking about and called him a troll.
The stream was pretty much just going over what gems are again. |
We at least know you can have two guys on one console go online.
|
The Capcom Fight Club is tonight down in Edinburgh with the newest build of SFxT. I don't think I'll be able to make it though :(.
Though I was thinking about it. They said it'll be the newest build but the guys on the stream last night said they were playing the newest build and the build had unannounced characters on the select screen. So, either they'll reveal new characters today or they'll not have the newest build at the Fight Club. I can't see them announcing new characters at a Fight Club in Edinburgh. If it's not LA, New York or London they wouldn't do that. I can't see them "wasting" a reveal on any other city in the world. Even if it is the countries capital city. Would they upload trailers on a Saturday? I thought it was more of a Thursday/Friday thing. |
Just go
|
Not got the money for travel. I don't get paid until Tuesday.

You confirm 4 characters in Jan. 17th? — Joe_Flex Ono: More!! I'll be make preparation it !! ;D Is the announcement on the 17th for Japan time or worldwide? — TheCaz Ono: We'll be post it to Media after 17th 8 a.m. (PST) ;D We'll be release about new characters for Street Fighter X Tekken on January 17!! I'll make preparation [for] it now. ;D |
Xiaoyu ready to give some palm strikes.
|
This could be the final reveal if they are revealing 4+ characters. Get everyone else out there before launch in March.
Unless they have enough people still to get through that they can reveal 4+ on Tuesday and maybe more in February. |
Damn can't believe this is only like a month and a half away. Still holding out for an Eddy and/or Guy reveal :(
|
I remeber they, maybe Ono, said that just because a character is in a trailer doesn't mean he or she is in the game.
Makes me wonder why even bother showing Guy or Cody if they aren't in. Unless they have plans for DLC characters from very early after launch. |
MadCatz is making a bunch of controller pads and sticks with the sticks separated into the pro and regular/Vs categories.

Some little bits of info about TxSF.

Wooooo Law. Sadly that's the only reveal I'm really psyched about.
|
JURRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
|
Marshall fucking Law, that's what I'm talking about. Possibly Devil Jin?!? Things are looking up for me roster wise!
|
|
I like the roster but I'll be 100% happy if Mika and Sodom are in.
I'm glad to see Vega. Hoping I can get my brother to a level good enough to team up online. My strength with Zangief and his speed with Vega should make things interesting. |
Was that Pac Man and Mega Man?
|
It was Pacman. Looks like Megaman, some people saying it looks like "Bad Boxart" Megaman.
I wonder if they'll be Vita only the entire lifespan of the game or if they'll come to consoles at some point. DLC, probably. |
Someone has spotted hints in the "New Challengers Hide in The Shadows" part of the gameplay trailer. Four characters are hinted at. They are...
SPOILER: show |
Bosses?
|
I think it's a safe bet Devil Jin will be in in some shape or form, either as a separate character, or maybe as something similar to Dark Phoenix.
|
With how Capcom have treated Megaman and his fans lately, how much uproar would there be if the sillouette that looks like Megaman for the Vita was actually Frank West in his Megaman outfit?
|
It would be incredible.

How the character select screen looks just now:
http://media.eventhubs.com/images/20...ctscreen02.jpg How someone hopes it'll look when everyone is revealed: http://d3j5vwomefv46c.cloudfront.net...vwzFxcgbimPTA_ I wouldn't say no. Edit: Second screen has gone. Basically, someone photoshopped a bunch of other character squares so the selection was a large square with lots more characters rather than the unusual shape it currently has. |

DLC Colors?
Ugh. |
They're free.
|
I was wondering why they'd have colours be DLC when they are free anyway. Doesn't make much sense.
We're getting more characters revealed at the end of this month so that'll be next week. Probably just Bison and Jin. Then we get more in mid February which will probably be the four seen at the end of the last gameplay trailer. So, that looks like our lot. No Sodom, Mika, Sakura, Alex or any of the other characters people wanted. Although, the crossover outfits suggest a few other people that haven't been revealed yet. No character that has been revealed isn't represented by someone where their outfit on the opposing side. As far as I know. |
I'm really happy with the roster.
Hope they go traditional karate jin, and not mishima style. |
I like the idea of a meterless super. Hopefully it's limited, tho. 1 per round or fight to prevent spam.
|
There was gameplay put up yesterday or the day before between Ono, some other Capcom guy and guys from GT and they charged a meterless super at least twice in one round. So it might be limitless.

Here is that screen of what someone hopes the character screen will eventually look like. Think it's likely?

Don't see a pic.
|
That's the second time I've gotten the image from Twitter and the second time no one could see it. Anyway, I've uploaded it myself. You should see it now.
|
I see now. And hell no.
|
What's up with people wanting huge rosters these days?
|
I guess the idea is the more characters, the more variation? In reality, everyone will pick Ryu until someone finds out who is the best character in the game.
|
Besides both series having pretty huge number of fighters, its been a side effect for fighting games ever since Marvel vs Capcom 2 came out.
Sure the game itself was pretty unbalanced and the majority of characters were barely used but it managed to please a ton of people on both the Marvel and Capcom sides of the game. One big complaint with Marvel vs Capcom 3 was the smaller roster even though it was done to be a lot more balanced. |
Trust me it pleased very few people.
|
I was greatly pleased by the roster.

Is this guy a japanese ric flair or something?
Also, next couple of months are going to be immense, for fighting games. SC5 in a week and a half. UFC two weeks after that. And finally SFxT two weeks after that. Jesus. |
Finally watched all the trailers. I'm sold.
Fact Bison, Juri, and Vega are in this was enough. Adding King made it better. Now if only Q... |
I can't see Q getting in. I'm personally hoping for Mika and Sodom but hope is sort of fading. We saw Sodom in the back of a stage once but when they played it on a live stream, he never appeared at all. So maybe he's been removed from the background to be playable? Mika is Kumas crossover outfit and everyone that has their outfit used by the opposing team has been revealed as character. I'm also sure someone had Sodoms outfit on as well.
I'm happy that Zangief is in and I want to give Poison I shot. If I can get those last two characters in the game, I'd be very satisfied. Ono talks about a new statge being revealed in February. I'm betting the stage will be inside Pandoras box. It'll look like the outside of the box in it's designs (the eye, the shapes etc) but with the colour scheme the characters take on when Pandora mode is activated. If that's not a stage, I already said it before, Pandora will be the end boss. The box will either contain the final boss, Genie of the Lamp style, or transform into the final boss. Probably a female because Pandora is a womans name. |
The Special Edition is up on the GAME website in the UK. It was up a few weeks ago briefly but was taken down again. I preordered it back then but, now that it's up and what I saw before wasn't an error, I'm not so keen on it.
The SE costs £20 more, comes with a mini guide, 45 gems and an arcade cabinate money box. No comic book like the US or Japan gets and no OST like the US or Japan gets, I can't remember who gets what. On top of that, I have to wait an extra month to get the SE over the standard edition. Probably wont go through with it. I can't see the gems making that big a difference for me. If I did get the gems, each of the packs includes a 30% strength increase gem. If I select 3 30% strength boost gems and active all 3, I'll have near double strength. Throw Pandora into the mix and it would give me over 100% increase with the 3 gems and Pandora combined. Considering who I play as, that would make the game a piece of cake, surely. |
Right, but if you play against someone who's plays with who you do and does that, surely you'd need them to compete?
|
Assuming that combo did make it a piece of cake, of course.
|
I play as Zangief, who is already really strong. Activate 3 30% strength gems and activate Pandora and I'd probably just need to do one spinning clothesline or piledriver and the match would be over.

It's amazing really. I remember when the reveal trailer dropped, and thinking that the year plus wait would be agony. Now, with less than 2 months to go, the wait seems just as long.
I might be more psyched for this game, than any other game in my whole life. At this point only a new Fire Pro, or King of Colosseum could top it. |
Is there any site that has all the videos released so far, in one easy to find place?

Couple of hidden jabs at MvC3 in the commentary. |
Looks like Microsoft once again nixed any ideas of having a console exclusive character like the PS3 is getting with this game (and Mortal Kombat).
The Xbox 360 version would have gotten 2 exclusive characters with one being Alan Wake. Quote:
|
Why would it be too late to add them as DLC? I thought the whole point of DLC, aside from milking a few extra £'s or $'s from us, was that games could have things added to them after release. What's timing got to do with it? If they have no plans for another disc based version of the game, there wouldn't be a deadline for adding to the game.
If they had used a Fable character, I'd have wanted Reaver in purely so I could listen to Stephen Fry taunting Ryu. |
Alan Wake? Thank god then.
|
Quote:
I guess whatever Capcom is planning for DLC won't be exclusive and could be tied to what Namco has in store for their version. |
I don't think they're working together at all. Some characters Namco didn't know were in the game until they saw the trailers like the rest of us. More likely there were license deadlines that Capcom didn't wanna put up with, especially after the UMvC3 thing. The rosters between SFxT and TxSF may be very different aside from mainstays (shotos, Mishimas, Chun-Li, Nina).

Yeah they've stressed quite a bit, that the companies share little to no input with each other on their respective games.

Yeah, I'm not sure what's so hard to grasp about the gem system. It's always struck me as something done for the sake of strategy and depth, as apposed to just having power ups for the hell of it, as the naysayers seem view them.
|
I like the Gem system. People with a problem have no balls.
|
Want game.
|
Funky, will you be able to pull yourself away from skyrim to play with me and your bro?

We are gonna have a fucking blast in lobbies. DAMN!
