I'm trying to think of a better choice for a guest character in Tekken than Geese, and I'm coming up with nothing. He's a fantastic choice both in terms of hype level for including him, and in terms of thematically fitting into the Tekken universe.
FFXIV forces you to do the old content before buying the new stuff. You have to finish realm reborn before starting heavensward, and you have to finish heavensward before starting storm blood. I'm not an expert in the game, I only just recently got back into it, but as far as I can tell the only reason to get stormblood right away is if you want to play one of their classes before making it into the expansions propers. The heavensward classes unlock at level 30 I think, and the storm blood ones at 50, again I think. I could be wrong about the levels you need to be at to unlock them.
I played a little bit of Firefall when it first came out. It was really boring, at least at early levels. I didn't make it very far into the game before putting it aside. I remember Defiance being a much better shooter mmo at the time.
Edit addition: I'm waiting for someone to upend this thread and advocate for a third, more obscure option "even moar hardcor3" than Tekken, like Shrek Summer Slam or something. :-P Heck, they could try to promote Street Fighter V with a straight face for maximum humor.
Shrek Summer Slam is for dirty casuals. Everyone knows that anyone serious about fighting games is still playing Clayfighter 63 1/3. That was the peak of the genre, and it's all been downhill since then.
@hassun: ??? She looks fine to me. NR has definitely had problems modeling women's faces in the past, but this just looks like a regular lady instead of the standard anime ladies we're used to from most fighting games.
Here's the Injustice 2 trailer with wonder woman and blue beetle.

Blue Beetle looks way too big to me, but I don't follow the comics. Did one of their various reboots change him so that he's no longer a short skinny teenager?
The only way I see Capcom making a MvC4 is if Marvel or another platform holder is funding the whole thing. Given the way SF5 went, I don't see them moving so quickly to make a new fighting game where they have to take any financial risk.
Do we know if they are actually bringing Geese back for real in KoF XIV? By that I mean, are they finally retconning his death that happened forever ago? I don't think this is a dream match game since it has so many new characters, and he's on a real team so he doesn't seem like a special bonus character this time.
