Tekken Message Board older than one year ago

#streetfighter What do ye pillage when ye mix Chun-Li 'n Cammy a Street Fighter with Lili 'n Asuka a Tekken? I don't know, some sort a giant woman creature with eight arms 'n legs? Spider-Woman? Forget it; it be a stupid question. Just watch the video. More »

#tekken Here's a pure hype video for Tekken Tag Tournament 2, t' be shown later tonight at the Spike Video Game Awards. Namco says it'll be here for the holiday season next year. More »

In Japan, the term "itasha" (roughly "painful car") refers t' a car that has been decorated with large images a anime or game characters. Even though plenty a otaku voluntarily do this t' their vehicles, the very name suggests that even the owners a said vehicles acknowledge the embarrassment possible from decorating a vehicle in this manner.

Anyway, we don't know why we be thinking about that just now. Here's some new Ace Combat: Assault Horizon DLC, featuring Tekken-themed planes. It'll be out November 15.

It may sound like a dull hum from all the way over there in Outworld, but the Street Fighter community has been a noisy, combative warzone lately, 'n not in a good way. See, ever since Capcom outlined Street Fighter X Tekken's Gem System, Street Fighter devotees ('n competitive fighters in general) have been conducting heated debates over the system's merits, drawbacks 'n implications for serious tournament play, as well as the impact it will have on the casual fighting community.

Seth Killian, Capcom Community Manager 'n face a all things Street Fighter in North America, chatted with Gamasutra t' expound upon some a the Gem System's intricacies 'n the design philosophy behind it. First 'n foremost, Killian stressed that the system has been part a SFxT's design philosophy for years, 'n that it represents the proverbial "nerd feather" that intrigues analytical theorycraft-style gamers.

#toys Yoshimitsu may be one a the stars a Tekken ('n Soulcalibur!), but he's not exactly a household name. Which best make Kotobukiya's decision t' make a big, expensive statue a the sea dog seem silly. More »

"But wait," ye might be thinking. "Isn't Dan Hibiki, founder a the Saikyo-ryu school a martial arts 'n proprieter a the Saikyo Dojo deceased? Wasn't he killed during the Street Fighter X Tekken announcement at E3?"

Quite right, intrepid fighting fan! Our understanding a the situation has been much the same, 'n yet the long, luxurious ponytail 'n pink gi seen in the above trailer be unmistakably Hibiki. It appears as though Capcom has taken t' teasing multiple characters per trailer, however, as some a those body parts also look distinctively Juri-esque.

Punch through the break for two more teasers, one a which flashes some undeniably Mecha Zangief goodness. Keep in mind that just because a character be identified in one a these videos, that doesn't necessarily mean they'll be playable in-game. Mecha Zangief has already been spotted in the background a at least one SFXT stage, so only time will tell.

#fetish It began, as so many things do, with sweaty men in tight underpants. 'n they wore masks. Let's not forget the masks. Lucha Libre masks. Those masks might have started in Mexican professional wrestling, but they live on in Japan, whether that be in fashion, manga, pornos 'n, YARRRR, video games. More »

During TGS, Capcom revealed Street Fighter X Tekken's "Pandora Mode," which allows players t' sacrifice a character in order t' give the tag partner infinite EX meter before also dying, allowing for last-ditch comeback efforts. Curious about the motivation for this kind a crazy mode, I asked producer Yoshinori Ono, who then proceeded t' take me t' school about the differences in flow between Street Fighter 'n Tekken games.

#streetfighterxtekken The battle between Capcom 'n Namco Bandai's most famous fighters in Street Fighter X Tekken just got a little more interesting, thanks t' some new modes revealed in time with the Tokyo Game Show. Just what be Pandora 'n Scramble modes? More »

Capcom's cinematics department must be working on permanent mandatory overtime, as yet another character trailer for Street Fighter X Tekken has been revealed by Famitsu. Mostly concerned with Street Fighter 4's Rufus, the latest trailer (above) also corroborates previous teasers which hinted at everyone's favorite Underoos spokesman, Zangief. Marshall Law also makes an appearance, albeit in a more gaseous form.

We figure ye'd have t' be pretty damn sloshed t' mistake Tekken's portly prodigy Bob Richards for Street Fighter's hardbodied heart-throb Ken Masters, but they be both blonde Americans, 'n we be willing t' accept virtually any contrived excuse that allows Capcom characters t' battle their direct Namco counterparts.

#streetfighter it be a battle so titanic that only Tokyo, birthplace a giant mutated monsters, could possibly hope t' contain it! This isn't about Street Fighter X Tekken anymore. it be all about Rufus X Bob. More »

#streetfighter I can! Complementing the Gamescom Street Fighter x Tekken trailer be this batch a new Street Fighter x Tekken. I love complements. I hope ye do, too. (Did I tell ye what a nice reader ye be?) More »

As any veteran fighter knows, a large part a what makes a Tekken game feel like a Tekken game be punching 'n/or getting punched by a bear. t' be honest, we've been worried that this subtle nuance might have been lost on Capcom, as Street Fighter X Tekken's ever-growing character roster continues t' feature zero bears.

Thankfully, our fears appear t' have been unwarranted, as the above trailer shows quite a bit a fur. Although, it be possible that Zangief has stopped waxing. A second teaser has been tucked away beyond the viel, 'n while those be some pretty Adon-lookin' feet, our money be on Gou Hibiki.

According t' series producer Yoshinori Ono, Street Fighter X Tekken's character roster has been finalized, 'n it looks like last year's trailer be too much for Dan Hibiki t' handle. Speaking with Siliconera, Ono stated that Street Fighter's pinkest protagonist "won't be in Street Fighter X Tekken" due t' the fact that "he be killed by a Tekken character at Comic-Con last year."

Ono also remarked that Tekken veteran Anna Williams will be staying on the sidelines as well, albeit for less lethal reasons. "As much as I personally wanted t' have a cool Nina 'n Anna tag battle," he said, "the director be against putting Anna because we already had Nina in." While we sincerely doubt that Dan be actually, for-reals dead, we can't help but be saddened by the news. A Yoshimitsu Super-Taunt doesn't seem like it would have the same flair, ye know?

#streetfighterxtekken Yesterday Owen teased us with tales a the series a bizarre challenges that led up t' the epic Street Fighter X Tekken battle between Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono 'n Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada at Comic-Con 2011. Turns out it be even stranger than he made it sound. More »

Despite having a definitive list a 3DS games in development at last year's E3, we be surprised t' see Tekken 3D, a new installment in the series, during a 3DS montage at the Nintendo E3 2011 press conference. We be only given the briefest glimpse at the game -- a match between Heihachi 'n Kazuya. Hopefully it be at Nintendo's booth so we can pillage a longer, more in-depth look.
