Gametrailers SFxT video blow out!
Jan 20th
Gametrailers had the opportunity to play some Street Fighter x Tekken with series producer Yoshinori Ono and videoed the results. There are for videos here starting with Team Capcom vs Team Gametrailers in the utterly hectic Scramble Mode where fur people play at the same time. It might be frantic, but listen to how much fun Ono is having! Part of this new rivalry sees Team Capcom trying the Sony exclusive characters Toro and Kuro, which is great if you ever wanted to see Zangief perform a spinning piledriver on a small cat. The next one is straight up gameplay but with Xiaoyu thrown into the mix, and as you can see she retains her back facing stance which leads to some cool moves and combos. And lastly there’s a bit of info about the Gems System. Also what’s interesting is the character select screen which has quite a few gaps left in it to fill!
