Street Fighter X Tekken Gameplay Footage
Posted by Alfonso "Fonzi" Arana on July 27th, 2010
In case any of you haven’t heard the big news by now, Capcom and Namco Bandai are planning on releasing two new fighting games, bringing together Tekken and Street Fighter in what seems to be one of the most exciting crossovers in the history of the genre. The already-hyped game isn’t set to release until at least 2012, but there was some gameplay footage for Capcom’s Street Fighter X Tekken that was shown at Comic-Con this year. The footage features none other than the stars of Street Fighter and Tekken –Ryu and Kazuya. (more…)






It’s been 10 years since the original and one massive downloadable game after than and now fighting fans are getting a brand spanking new Marvel vs. Capcom to spend hundreds of hours whomping each other in. As the biggest announcement at this year’s Capcom-only Captivate event in Hawaii, the publisher dropped this bombshell on an ever hungry media as well as a teaser trailer which you can find below. Rumor has it the new MvC game will feature updated Street Fighter IV style visuals, more characters than ever before, and who knows what else? It’s full title is Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, so if the stories in fighting games are your thing, you can probably expect a whopper. What is known is that the game uses an advanced version of the MT Framework engine used in Lost Planet 2 and Resident Evil 5, the signature over the top fighting styles seen in former vs. games, and the triple team antics fans have grown accustomed to over the years. My guess is that this might just be as wildly popular as Street Fighter IV has been, and possibly moreso if it brings the comic nerds to the fighting platform as well. I know I’ll be checking it out on my PS3 or Xbox 360 come 2011. Peep the trailer below for a taste of the action (in cinematic style unfortunately).
Anyone out there who is just now coming out of a coma, or finding themselves without a console might not know too much about the February release of Street Fighter IV earlier this year. Lucky for all of us PC gamer relics, the game is going to be hitting the shelf early next month, giving us the chance to pummel each other over Games for Windows – LIVE. In addition to all the content that went out to consoles the PC version is going to be shipping with three additional visual filters that will serve to make your game look as if it was a watercolor painting, an ink drawing or a posterize filter that, well, posterizes it.
All us serious business Street Fighter fans have been doing lately is huffing and puffing about the endless drought throughout the Fightstick Famine of ‘09. The game came out in February and these sticks have been sold out ALL over the ‘net ever since! Both online retailers and down the street shopping malls included. People have been paying upwards of $150 for these joysticks on internet auction sites just because they are so desperate to own one (and own you, in SFIV, of course). Will MadCatz ever deliver?
