PS3/Vita Exclusive Characters
Cole McGrath (inFamous/inFamous 2)
Toro and Kuro (Japanese Sony cat mascots, PSVita version)
Pac-Man (Namco) and Fat Mega Man (Capcom)
Maximilian goes into pretty good detail about the various system mechanics, providing some tips and general advice about meter usage. Next episode will cover Pandora and gem loadouts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lq1shF8k_o
It's what they did with SNK and Capcom but in reverse sort of. Capcom made the 3 on 3 fighter and SNK made the 1 on 1 fighter.
It's interesting because the rumor is that they are both being worked on right now. Unlike last time where Capcom did their games and then SNK did their games.
This is a really neat idea, and I very much hope it's true. Company crossovers are rife with potential in my eyes anyways, and having each company do it's own take on things is clever.
Also that image, despite being for the old RPG game of that name, reminds me that if one/both of these games do not feature Xenosaga characters, I will shake my fist in pointless internet rage.
Still hoping it's a massive troll and they just port Namco x Capcom to xbl and psn, just with each company handling one of the localizations.
I could expect that from Namco, but Capcom is taking itself too seriously now to try a fake-out like that. Not when they already have big games in development like MvC3.
On that same note though, I can't see this news having as big of an impact as the announcement of MVC3 did. Namco isn't as unknown as Tatsunoko, but it's nowhere near as popular as a Marvel crossover is. I wouldn't be surprised if these games just turn out to be flops in the end because all of Capcom's marketing is going to MVC3.

What I wouldn't give to see a KOS vs Cammie fight [tiny]in underwear with pillows[/tiny].
Wasn't the SSFIV designer saying he was going to have a big announcement at Comic Con?
Yes, and there was this silly thing at Evo where the director for Tekken tried to get him up on stage and make a reveal about an unspecified thing. He told everyone to wait for Comic-Con.
The first will be Street Fighter 4 - esque with tag team fighting, developed by Capcom. The latter will be a 3D fighter in the vein of tekken style games developed by Namco.
Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono had his "Street Fighter IV and Beyond" panel interrupted by Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada today, with the rival fighting game makers joining together to announce two Street Fighter versus Tekken collaborations.
Street Fighter X Tekken was introduced with a teaser trailer featuring Street Fighter's Ryu facing down Tekken's Kazuya Mishima in a pre-rendered sneak peek presented in Street Fighter IV's sketchy, inky visual style. The game, pronounced "Street Fighter cross Tekken" will be coming to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Following the announcement, Ono surprised the crowd by holding up a Blu-ray disc with a copy of the game, then provided attendees with a live, playable demo.
Street Fighter X Tekken appears to feature Street Fighter IV's gameplay mechanics, locked onto a 2D plane, with both Tekken and Street Fighter characters performing EX-style super moves. The match started off with Ryu versus Kazuya Mishima, but Ono and Harada tagged in two more characters, Street Fighter's Chun-li and Tekken's Nina Williams. Ryu deployed his trademark fireball Ultra move, with Kazuya later following that up with his spinning electrified uppercut.
Harada followed that playable match with an announcement of his own, confirming that Tekken X Street Fighter is also in development at Namco. That game is rumored to play in the style of Tekken, with contestants fighting in a 3D arena.
Ono said the games won't be out "for a while" and that fighting game fans should enjoy Marvel vs. Capcom 3 while they wait.
Update: As some commenters have pointed it, Tekken's Kazuya Mishima was the fighter that appeared in the demo and trailer, not Jin Kazama. Apologies for the error.
Dear God please let Arthur be a hidden character. I know, I know, keep dreaming Howdy. But if it was pure Capcom vs Namco, you know damn well you'd be playing as Arthur.

If there was going to be anything else it would be Capcom vs. Namco or something. I'm just thinking about the different stages they went though with the Marvel characters.
Eh... I was hoping for Soul Calibur over Tekken, myself- I haven't played Tekken since the second or third game, and it's been years since I played a Street Fighter game.
But I hope this does well enough that SF vs. SC could become a reality some day.
Though weirdly enough at the end of the trailer you can see pacman vs megaman.
That might be to remind everyone that they are working on new megaman and pacman games.
Or might just be because they are the companies most famous creations.

Namco yeah but Capcom. I dunno. It's a toss up between MegaMan, Resident Evil, and Street Fighter.
Heh, maybe Pacman will be a playable character in Megaman Universe. That would be hilarious.

I was hoping, before this was announced, that it would be more of a mash up between all of the properties, so that we could have characters from everything.
But! This is still super awesome. This will be the first time I get into a fighting game with Tekken characters in it :P
Soul Calibur would be amazing, as would many other properties, although I guess they're simply sticking to SF and Tekken since these are fighting game franchises and they don't involve weapons, so they make more sense in a single game. Unless you went all out like MVC style. But this game doesn't seem to be going for that direction.
Yeah I love SC. I never "got into" Tekken but I've always found the characters interesting and I absolutely love Capcom's recent fighting games, so I have high hopes for this.

I like how it's Street Fighter X Tekken. NxC lives!
If Reiji and Xiaomu are in this, I will buy both versions.
(in the center of the NxC graphic, the blonde and the gunman; NxC's only original characters, aside from Saya)
So I was really disappointed and still am about Darkstalkers not being released but man I'll love this game forever if I can get a Dan/paul phoenix tag team.
It would be awesome if they took the roster from SSFIV and tekken 6 and put it in this game.
Haha, man that would be a nightmare to try to balance, 37 characters in SF4, 40(?) in tekken 6. 77 characters! i would love that, so many combinations!

I feel almost the same way, except that I've never gotten into the Street Fighter series, but loved the Tekken series. Whenever Namco's half in this comes out, I'll finally be able to not look like an idiot playing as SF characters

The screens so far are looking very SF4ish. I hope we get some details soon on what differates it from the main series.

Sir Arthur. In a fighting game. Let us rejoice.

Two games are now confirmed.
The first will be Street Fighter 4 - esque with tag team fighting, developed by Capcom. The latter will be a 3D fighter in the vein of tekken style games developed by Namco.

It's Street Fighter Vs Tekken. It'll only pit Street Fighter characters versus Tekken Characters.
You're right. I got so excited.
It's SF x Tekken or whatever. ie SF Characters and Tekken characters.
Although it'd be cooler with an all out mash up it will still be really cool and I look forward to it.

We also know that there are tag teams. I mean, if nothing else there's that difference.

No, did he roll in the gameplay video? I could totally see them adding an evasion move for Tekken characters to deal with fireballs.
