Mortal Kombat vs Street Fighter isn't very likely

Speaking with Street Fighter head honcho Yoshinori Ono, PlayStation Blog inquired about the highly sought after, and totally theoretical, fighting game crossover between Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter. As hopeful as fans may be, it doesn't look like it's something that's ever going to happen.

"I understand why people want it, but it's easier said than done," Ono said. "Having Chun Li getting her spine ripped out, or Ryu's head bouncing off the floor ... it doesn't necessarily match." Our childhood lust for the thickly-thighed Chinese warrior (she was our first love!) means we don't want to see her spine ripped out either, but we wouldn't mind seeing Kano catch a dragon punch to the face or watch Jax choke slam Zangief. It just sounds so cool on paper!

We'd like to say there's a happy middle ground that can be attained to make this crossover possible, but we've seen what compromise has done in the past. The world can ill afford another Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe, after all.
