Tekken X Street Fighter (360/PS3)

[eDotd]

Announced the same time as SF X tekken was, didn't see a thread for it though. This is a completely different game from SF X Tekken. It'll be utilizing Tekken's engine (3D fighter).

Ryu "Tekkenized"

To such a response, Harada had to say, "Well you know it's funny. Ono is often saying that we stole his characters, and even some of the characters we didn't steal he thinks we did. Obviously we received some influence from Street Fighter in the beginning, but also some different fighting game franchises. Tekken has gone off on its own path and turned into a unique franchise, and as a result the gameplay's quite different." One point of interest amongst Tekken fans is how exactly something like a fireball from a Street Fighter characters is going to work within the Tekken fighting framework. "I think it's safe to say, at least for the fireballs, that they'll be in our game," said Harada. "If there's no fireball then it's no Ryu and it's not Street Fighter."

Not having that SF x Tekken bulllllll for this game...

Katsuhiro Harada, producer of the Tekken series and upcoming crossover spinoff Tekken X Street Fighter, says the idea of charging extra for downloadable bonus characters goes against his fighting-game philosophy – and that he has no plans for the Tekken series to follow Street Fighter's example.

“I see the characters and their move sets as chess pieces,” the producer explained to attendees at last week's Las Vegas-hosted Namco Bandai Global Gamer Day: “they are essential items necessary in the game and we would never sell any of those individually.”

The Tekken producer says that his series “has never had DLC before and charged for it,” stressing that he “was saying this before the Capcom thing happened – my stance hasn't changed.” He refers, of course, to the controversy surrounding Capcom's on-disc DLC, to be sold via upcoming Street Fighter X Tekken roster updates.

Harada's anxious not to be seen as criticizing this strategy – “it's Capcom's business decision, obviously” – but he says such a move wouldn't suit Tekken.

It' still in the early stages of development. I preferred this one over Capcom's 2D-styled gameplay version (SF X Tekken). Awaiting for the release of this game developed by Namco-Bandai Games...
