Six Characters Revealed In Street Fighter X Tekken’s Latest Big Ol’ Batch O’ Media
0As we inch ever so closer to Street Fighter X Tekken’‘s March release, Capcom is seemingly pulling out the big guns for one big push to build up more hype before the game comes out. As promised by current head honcho of all things SF, Yoshinoro Ono over Twitter, six additions to the roster have been revealed, along with previously confirmed fighters Asuka Kazama (Tekken) and Rufus (Street Fighter). These are: Paul Phoenix, Marshall Law, and Ling Xaioyu for the Tekken side, and Vega (Balrog in Japan), Balrog (M. Bison in Japan), and Juri representing Street Fighter. In the meantime enjoy the cinematic trailer posted above and the gameplay trailer along with some sweet character artwork after the jump. (more…)
Bear with this Street Fighter X Tekken trailer from Gamescom, it’s pretty useful
0I’m saying this because the first half of this new trailer is a breakdown of SFxT‘s core mechanics. From the looks of it, Capcom is doing a fine job of blending the disparate gameplay styles of Street Fighter and Tekken. Here, you have explanations for basic tagging, switch cancels, launchers, basic juggles, and the supposed centerpiece of the game, the Cross Assault. That last item has both your characters enter the screen and you control them alternately instead of simultaneously as opposed to Marvel VS Capcom‘s Duo Team Attack, which I’ve noticed has the exact same input to initiate. And remember those tag-based supers we saw in the prototype gameplay footage from last year’s SDCC? They’ve been fully integrated into the game as Cross Arts.
New Street Fighter X Tekken trailers have a bit of Poison in them
Capcom just hoisted two new Street Fighter X Tekken trailers for this year’s San Diego Comic Con. Of course, the new trailers include the latest spate of character reveals. In this batch, we have Dhalsim and the ever gender-bending Poison for the Street Fighter side. Poison is a particularly special case, as this marks her second appearance as a playable character in a fighting game since Final Fight Revenge in 1999. Tekken‘s latest representatives to be revealed are Yoshimitsu, clad in his Tekken 3 armor, and British boxer Steve Fox.
For a closer look at how the new combatants, along with some of the previously revealed ones play, hit the jump for a second gameplay trailer. Look! Ken got his Shippuu Jinrai Kyaku back! (more…)

Tekken: Blood Vengeance Teaser Trailer
0Hello, folks. Remember last year’s Tekken movie. I won’t hold it against you if you don’t. It was forgettable at best… and utterly horrendous at worst. Well, it seems Namco Bandai wants to help you wash out the bad aftertaste that movie left with a new CG animated feature film, Tekken: Blood Vengeance. The film is directed by Youichi Mouri, the man behind the opening cinematics of Tekken 5 and 6. I liked those opening movies (especially 5′s), and for those of you familiar with them, that should give you a pretty good idea of what the film should look like. (more…)

Once again the Tokyo Game Show, or TGS, as we so lovingly call it is upon us. Annually held at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba, it’s pretty much the biggest games-related convention on this side of the planet. As par for the course, we’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for major announcements and surprises along with whatever media we can get our grubby little mitts on. (more…)
