Street Fighter vs. Tekken announced

[nation]

According to Event Hubs, Capcom producer Yoshinori Ono recently dropped a fairly sizable bomb on attendees of the company's "Street Fighter Mania!: SSFIV and Beyond" panel at Comic-Con: Street Fighter X Tekken. The oft-rumored project will be developed by Capcom using the Street Fighter IV engine (only with two-fighter tag team battles), and will feature a number of fighters from Namco's similarly successful fighting franchise, including Kazuya and Nina Williams.

But that's not all! Ono also revealed that Namco Bandai would be developing Tekken X Street Fighter, which will be developed in-house at Tekken, and spearheaded by long-time franchise producer Katsuhiro Harada. Both titles will be released for 360 and PS3, though according to a cheeky slide at the end of the presentation, the current release window is "not for a while!"

Holy shit. I'm a huge Tekken fan and while I don't have any SF games I like the style, characters, and gameplay of the series. I need to get Tekken 6 and Super Street Fighter IV soon.

It does suck that its not Capcom vs Namco(no Mega Man, Soul Calibur fighters, etc but whatever)

 

[He who knows more than Nation]

I've never really cared for Tekken, except for the summer of 98 when Eddie Gordo was all the rage. I have always loved Street Fighter and will stand by it as not only the best fighting series of all time, but it is also the most important ever created. I'm looking forward to the Capcom developed one.

Tekken is so much better than Street Fighter. I still have Tekken 3 for Playstation. Man the Panda will do work in this game.

Tekken 3 is one of the greatest PS1/Fighting games of all time. maybe even the best PS1 game. Tekken 4 and 5 were amazing. I didn't have them on the PS2 for some reason but considering I had a blast with the arcade versions, I can imagine how great they are.

Tekken > Street Fighter any day. I never saw what people found great in Street Fighter. It's highly unlikely, ever.... but a Mortal Kombat vs. Tekken wouldn't be so bad.
