The frame rate on Abel's throw was shit.  I hope that that is either part of the game or is fixed.

Noticing that too, I assume they will fix all that shit. It's still a year or more away right?

Is there a Tekken x Street Fighter being announced at some point, then? Wasn't there supposed to be two versions of this game, one where you play it as SF and one where you play it as Tekken?


Anyways, game looks fine if it weren't pretty much exactly SFIV with a choppier framerate. As I've had no love for Tekken over the years...this just seems redundant, and makes Arcade even more redundant.

I like how the giant mech and T-rex's in the backgrounds are never a concern.

Looks cool.  I wish Capcom would do one of these for all fighter franchises.  Capcom vs DOA, Capcom vs Guilty Gear, Capcom vs King of Fighters, etc... I don't care if it makes sense, just as long as it's entertaining.

Well there is coming Tekken X Street Fighter, but theyr really focusing on showing the SF version of the game. 
And from what ive read the Tekken version is still in early development. So its coming but its taking more time then the SF version it seems.

I'm feeling like I've played way too much Street Fighter in the past couple of years to enjoy this at all, too much of a good thing and all that.

The art style is kind of throwing me off.  I don't really like it.  It seems... rougher? than SF4/SSF4 to me.  Maybe I'm crazy.

Probably more like Street Fighter 4. Which is a good thing in my eyes.

That's probably because they only have a certain number of backgrounds that are ready to be show in a trailer so far

I think that's one of the reasons there will be two different games (outside of being able to milk two games out of the concept right off the bat :P )

I imagine SFxTekken will play pretty much like a Street Fighter with some twists and Tekken x Street Fighter will play pretty much like a Tekken game.

Gonna be honest, the only thing off putting in what I am seeing is the rebound off of the walls. Seems like that could be exploited badly if they aren't careful.

Am I forgetting how slow SF4 is or did that seem even slower than SF4?

I would have had the art style be more along the lines of a Tekken game. This feels too much like Street Fighter 4.

Well, there's two games. This is Street Fighter x Tekken, which is basically SF with Tekken characters. Then there will be Tekken x Street Fighter which will be Tekken with SF characters thrown in.
