Street Fighter X Tekken is for REAL!

Sairus · 07-06-2011 10:02am

Here comes a new challenger! And platform.

Cole from inFAMOUS is joining the roster on all Sony Computer Entertainment platforms, so prepare for a PS3 and PSVita exclusive character!

Stop with the console exclusive characters... please

Scavenger XIII · 07-06-2011 12:17pm

Words fail me.

I just want to headbutt headbutt -> ultra whoever made that decision.

Granted I don't own a PS3 but it's the principal damn it!

That IS a freaking awesome character select, but they'll need more to make up for this ****ty guest character fiasco.

Owwmykneecap · 07-06-2011 6:16pm

Has cole been confirmed for Ps3 or just the ryvita?

Sairus · 07-06-2011 6:29pm

They said he would be coming to SCE platforms, which covers both PSVita and PS3, but they haven't specifically said it'd be on PS3.

JohnMc1 · 07-06-2011 6:34pm

Kunimitsu lives. Nice seeing her and Ibuki in the background.

Sairus · 07-06-2011 8:57pm

Capcom's trailer for SFxT from E3. Shows off some of the stuff the teasered characters can do.
Abel introducing himself with "En garde, sil vous plait" is awesome.

Word on the street is that the character in the cloak at the end is Asuka, based on the glove and the shorts you can see at 0:15.

EDIT: Also, On confirmed that Cole is indeed on both the PS3 and PSVita versions of the game.

Novril has uploaded some footage from the Capcom-Unity stream:

Couldn't agree more. Seems like the real deal.

Some gameplay details:

Most of this we already know, but some interesting observations nonetheless.

Cammy top tier = Cobelcog happy
Dial a combo = Cobelcog sad!

I dunno, it sounds like alot of fun, although I prefer games of the traditional SF "style" in general. Hopefully there will still be links and advanced stuff in there for those who want to play it that way.

Yreval · 08-06-2011 1:10pm

Asuka:

Lili:

Suppposedly Steve and Dhalsim can be seen as well.

Scavenger XIII · 08-06-2011 1:49pm

Lilis legs make me happy. :pac:

Get Karin in there for my rich b**** dream team and I might forget about the Cole debacle.

Maximilian has put together a gameplay mechanics preview based on his experience with the game at E3:

According to Ono, it was decided almost immediately that Dan would not be on the roster for SFxT because "he's not alive in this timeline". I assume he means that in some reference to him being Mr. Karate's son or something.

Also, there's no word on a 360 exclusive character. "Seth and Christian said sorry, but nothing on that front right now."

They've removed double quarter roll inputs for supers. It's just quarter roll + 3 punches now. Guile's Sonic Hurricane is just a single charge + 3 punches.

On a semi related note, the SFxT Madcatz stick is not purely a TE, it's slightly bigger than an SE and has the sloped front panel.

Ono has got to be trolling again. What's the point of putting Dan in the original trailer [Kazuya beats the crap out of him throws him through the door into the room where Ryu is meditating] if he's not going to be in the game? It makes no sense.

K.O.Kiki · 09-06-2011 6:13pm

Dan was in SFAlpha1 as Sagat's punching bag, and not playable until Alpha 2.

Dunjohn · 09-06-2011 7:29pm

Dan was playable with a cheat code. I dunno what it was, though, I never played SFA1.

Still, that's the daftest reason for a character exclusion I've ever heard. He may as well say Mario's not playable because he's not alive in this timeline. Despite being a big Dan Hibiki adherent, though, I'd rather he not be in here. Two shotos in a crossover title (plus Sagat) is plenty.

Scavenger XIII · 09-06-2011 7:46pm

Just noticed that the BGM for the temple stage is a remix of Wangs stage (which now that I think on it was also a rearrangment of Heihachis stage) in Tekken 2, sweeeeet.

GorySnake · 10-06-2011 2:31am

Dan not polluting this game is fine by me!

Sairus · 10-06-2011 11:09am

Seems like Seth accidentally confirmed Jin.
At 3:20 he mentions "Kazuya, Jin and Nina"

Aside from that there's not much new info so it's probably not worth watching the whole 7 minutes. He does touch on how the Tekken characters are all dangerous close in but don't have many ranged options.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0lzqcK-tVI

K.O.Kiki · 10-06-2011 11:40am

Jin's been technically confirmed since the first trailer.

Kazuya: (on comlink) "Hey Jin..."

Dunjohn · 10-06-2011 2:42pm

Wait, I'm supposed to be calling this "Street Fighter Cross Tekken?" I've been saying "Ex."

The first one is laaame.

Orim · 10-06-2011 2:43pm

Technically yes. I use Ex. Just sounds better.

baal · 12-06-2011 10:27pm

The second part of Maximilian's gameplay overview.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zjOHTsW3g4

He says it represents the kind of change from vanilla SF4 that he was hoping for from SSF4, and I can't say I disagree with him on that.

chopperbyrne · 14-06-2011 1:41pm

That is such a bull**** statement.

He wanted Super Street Fighter IV to have completely different system mechanics than Street Fighter IV. What a load of balls.

Scavenger XIII · 14-06-2011 2:27pm

I would assume he meant he expected the switchup to much more aggressive play.

To be fair I remember alot of people talking about faster walking speeds, focus attacks and the like to speed up the game at the time.

Hi there Dhalsim.

Doctor DooM · 08-07-2011 4:27pm

I'm quite confused (although not disappointed) why Guile and Sim are in this game and how they will work, they don't exactly lend themselves to dial a combo rushdown. Guile I could see working better than Sim though, I guess.

K.O.Kiki · 08-07-2011 6:24pm

Guile has always been a combo machine.

It's Steve!

Scavenger XIII · 14-07-2011 7:38pm

The shot of his scarred arm at the start made it extra obvious.

Yeah, that was what tipped me off too.
I mean who was going to figure it out from the boxing gloves and shoes?

I did say EXTRA obvious, given that he was already suspected and is the only white boxer in either franchise.

Poison. Hells yes.
Clear gender distinctions? Who needs em.

Placebo · 21-07-2011 2:52pm

very excited about poison, glad she finally got some action, regardless ofher ambiguous sexuality, im gonna assume its a woman

Sairus · 21-07-2011 2:58pm

She officially a post-op transexual outside of Japan. Over there she's a guy dressed as a woman.
But that description is retarded at this point, that chest is a bit unreasonable for a guy dressed as a girl.

It's a stupid nigly point, but I wish Capcom would just finally retcon Poison into a single gender, I don't care which.
