    I assume that's the legendary quantum butterfly in the trailer?

    I am embarrassingly excited about that... The hype is through the roof :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 353 ✭✭Generic_name01


    Agreed! Before I was sceptical but now I just want it out. Happy with how kazuya is looking. he has all the moves that come to mind when i think of him! Cant wait to see what to do with the rest of the tekken cast. Hoping to see how king plays. And maybe now Ono will get to throw in people like Hugo etc

    Better quality vid of the demo here.

    http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/30596

    Its gonna be 2 games, the trailer is from capcoms version which is gonna play like SF4 but with 2 player tag, and Namco is gonna make Tekken Vs Street Fighter which will be play like Tekken tag (side steps an all).


  • Registered Users Posts: 353 ✭✭Generic_name01


    Go to 1.25 in that vid and not long after ryu ROLLS towards kazuya after getting knocked down! Dunno about ye but that to me was pretty HUGE!

    Might show Tekken fans that Street Fighter is, y'know, better :pac:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 890 ✭✭✭CrinkElite


    That's just streetfighter with the characters from tekken in it.

    not interested! :mad:

    lol that you pick this over ultas comboed into from normals and ryu's wall bounce kicky thing being back and, you know, the whole Tekken thing!


  • Registered Users Posts: 95 ✭✭Johnick


    Street Fighter X Tekken is gonna run on the SF4 engine but with a Tag mode. Namco will be doing their own cross over game Tekken style, with side steps and all that jazz, Im less excited about that but not opposed to it either.

    Seems Capcom are doing what they did with SNK back in 2000, each company makes a cross over game from both their rosters and each keeps all the money from their respective game. Didnt work out that well for SNK, Capcom VS SNK 2 did a hell of a lot better then SNK vs Capcom Chaos, but unlike SNK in 2000 Namco are far from bankrupt.

    What'd you expect from a game called "Street Fighter x tekken"? :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    HYPE!

    This is too much, how are we supposed to keep up with all this stuff?

    Most of the SF stuff is ripped right from 4 which is fair enough at such an early stage, but the Tekken chars were VERY impressive. Several signature moves clearly visible, but also Kazuyas movements just looked really fluid.

    I just can't wait to see King with a full Mexican magma Drive for a max super / ultra / whatever.

    We're running out of things to cross over with.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    Street Fighter Vs Sesame Street : One of These Things is Not Like the Other

    I think that's where that line was from...

    SF games have had that before - the Alpha series, for a start.

    something that had a healthy respect for both games?

    Assuming you're complaining about what I think you're complaining about...

    You do realise Namco are making the opposing half of the coin, with SF characters in 3D gameplay?


  • Registered Users Posts: 353 ✭✭Generic_name01


    Oh I know the tagable ultras and stuff but we were all gonna comment on that so I thought I'd point out the rolling! :p

    And alpha did have rolling BUT sfiv didnt and it may not be sfiv but its hard not to compare when its the same engine! Wonder when they'll have more to show us. Really good stuff so far.

    What he said.


    Furthermore I don't think it'd be possible to join both- the 2d zoning space controlly game is so different to the juggley side steppy game.
