Street Fighter X Tekken is official folks!

So yes ladies and gentlemen it's true Street Fighter X Tekken is coming out in 2012!! Hold on to your hats, so your mind doesn't get blown! The official "announcement" happened over the weekend at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) during the producer of Super Street Fighter 4, Yoshinori Ono's panel discussion where he was asking about additional things fans would love to see in downloadable content (DLC) that will enhance your Super Street Fighter 4 experience. As he started make his opening remarks concerning the add-ons, a voice was heard in the distance....

It was Katsuhiro Harada, the producer of Tekken 6!! To add insult to injury, not only did he interrupt Ono's panel, he began giving out copies of Tekken 6 to all the fans that came to hear Ono speak. Harada made sure that when walked up on stage that he talked as much trash as he could. Ono responded with a hearty laugh and then it happened...

Watch this video to see what I'm talking about.

For those who want to see the trailer in a even better quality you can watch this.

Then to top it all off they gave everyone GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE!!

Now after screaming like a sissy, I studied the footage to see what they will be offering to make Street Fighter X Tekken have that "pop". Oh don't think that Namco won't be doing their version which will most likely be titled Tekken X Street Fighter. So what was I saying? Oh yeah, my thoughts of what to expect from SxT:

1. Ryu will play a little more like his Street Fighter III 3rd strike version.

2. Tag Team Ultras/Supers similar to Rival Schools. Maybe they will have a tag system like Tekken Tag as well.

3. To make the Tekken players feel more at home they will be adding a juggle system.

4. Target combos will be the way you can blend the Tekken style with Street Fight style.

5. Wall bouncing, so you can truly punish a player once you get them up against the wall.

6. You will be able to roll forward which can allow you do dodge projectiles.

7. Critical hits can cause the victim to spin around, but it keeps them on their feet so that you can continue a combo.

8. When you get knocked down you can roll in any direction you want as an escape. Which means if you don't get up you can keep getting hit.

9. Obviously it will be based off of the Super Street Fighter 4 core engine.

10. It will be available for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

Now for what I would call my wish list.

1. Story for the tournament.

M. Bison desires more fighters for his [army of assassins/replacement body/fight ability siphon] project, and goes to Heihachi who is in need of even more money to start the Iron Fist Tournament again. M. Bison provides the money and power, while Heihachi provides new challengers. Kazuya finds out about this hidden ancient power and realizes that if he could get a hold of this "Satsui-no-hado", and merge it with his own Devil powers he would become a god!

2. Proper rivalries/roster.

3. Character specific endings

You know what I mean. No shortcuts Capcom.

So what do you think, cool right? Any extra news will be update over at our forum.

Street Fighter VS Tekken???

What is this image and what does it mean? Well from information gathered that Yoshinori Ono, producer of Super Street Fighter said that he's working on a new fighting game (obviously for the PS3 and Xbox360 if the picture above is a hint) that will be released in about a year. Ono then added that he won't reveal what the game is until about a week from now.

The added twist to the whole mystery is that Tekken 6 producer Katsuhiro Harada has been on stage with Ono for the first announcement of this game at EVO2010.

What does this mean? Well rumor has it that it will be two games. Capcom Vs. Namco and Namco Vs. Capcom.

Yeah you read it right, but remember for now it's still a rumor. So just how SNK and Capcom created the two separate fighting games Namco will have that arrangement with Capcom. First Capcom will put out Capcom Vs. Namco and it look and play very similar to Super Street Fighter 4, then Namco will unleash Namco Vs. Capcom which will look and play like Tekken 6.

Now I don't know about you but I'm a little on the skeptical side only because the way these games play are so completely different that I think both sides might suffer in the hands of their opposing producers. If this is true what do you think?

Let's talk about it on the forum.... :)

The winner of the Super Mario Galaxy 2 Super suit contest is....

Ok. The time has finally come to announce the winner.....
DRUMROLL PLEASE?!?!?
The grand prize of a free copy of Super Mario Galaxy 2 goes to the J1 forum member "o0 LMoney 0o" for his Ram Suit Mario.
I would like to thank everyone who entered the contest, and for all the amazing participation and really sweet ideas they came up with.
Thank you all again for trying so hard to make this contest all that it could be and more.

o0 LMoney 0o's entry:



Hitting a block w/this Power-Up releases a ram that you have to dodge & hit w/a Butt-Slam. Once you do, you get the suit.
It's basically a RAM SUIT, in that it changes Mario's body to look more like a Ram (horns, hooves instead of boots, fur, etc.).

The suit gives Mario abnormally high attack power, and also gives him very noticeable horns on his head/hat. The horns allow him to ram (ha) into things/enemies, and the hooves also grant traction on otherwise unclimbable surfaces. Other than that, the specifics of this suit are displayed below:

1) With the horns, Mario's attack potential goes up. Enemies that would otherwise be partially/completely invincible against Mario's attacks are now susceptible to harm. With this suit, Mario CAN still be hurt, but he'd have little within the game world that he could not cause damage to, in turn. He could also potentially use this attack to get through certain walls/doors/floors. The "Ramming" attack (which, hypothetically, would replace the "Slide" command) would be VERY powerful, but difficult to control. He'd also get a "Head-Drop" attack (replacing the "Butt Slam") to hit enemies from the air. The "Ramming" attack could be charged by crouching, causing Mario to kick his right foot back off of the ground repeatedly, like a ram/bull.

2) With Mario's feet now replaced by hooves, Mario could potentially traverse terrain that before may have been considered adverse, like muddy/slippery surfaces. Weather effects like wind/rain would no longer be a deterrent to making a successful jump/sprint to a specific location. Getting wet would slow him down though-a "Spin-Attack" in mid-air would solve this.

Imagine being able to go through walls into other areas for hidden items or shortcuts to getting certain Stars, or being able to just run through most enemies without worrying about taking (too much) damage. Or using the "Head Drop" to repeatedly hit a button that brings up a door/statue that you eventually have to ram through to get a key...or reveal an enemy. Or fighting a boss that keeps covering it's weak point; you run into it's legs, making it double over, then you ram into it's head, and it falls back...you then jump onto it and "Head Drop" into the weak point.

This would definitely add a bit more of an action vibe to the series, right?

Now that is an entry!! GREAT JOB!!!

MEGA MAN- The fan film!!

Yeah you read it right. Yes it's real, and you know what it's not half bad. Matter of fact it's entertaining. It was done by filmmaker Eddie Lebron. It's a fan film, so he's just showing his love for the Mega Man franchise.

For those who don't know Mega Man's story:

Based off of the popular Video Game, Megaman. In the year 20XX, Robot scientists Dr. Thomas Light and Dr. Albert Wily were completing their special project. Helper robots, which will help humans with everyday work. However, Dr. Wily had secretly reprogrammed the helper robots into fighting machines.

Wily intends to use these robots to take over the world. After Dr. Light learned of this, he had decided to reprogram one of his other helper robots. He has chosen Rock (his male helper robot). Dr. Light gave Rock state of the art combat technology, with the ability to copy another robot's weapon, thus Dr. light created Megaman. Now, Megaman has to stop Dr. Wily and his band of robots from taking over the world.

There is a sudden wave of indie filmmakers making video game movies that blow away anything that the "big boys" do. I say KEEP IT COMING GUYS!!!

The only difference from most fan films based on games is that this one is actually 90 minutes!! It's a full on movie!

For your viewing pleasure I bring you... Mega Man the fan film!!

I wish the big money went to guys like Eddie Lebron instead of the jokers that are in Hollywood now.
