two of the biggest fighting franchises
collide welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’ll be exploring everything you
should know about street fighter cross
tekken developed by Capcom this hybrid
fighter is centered on a ludicrous plot
device namely that the cast of both
franchises have begun descending into
the site of a meteor crash these
characters include members of em Bisons
terrorist organization and the Mishima
Zaibatsu otherwise known as the tekken
corporation the force bringing them all
together is a box contained within the
meteorite called Pandora it releases a
liquid that supercharges anyone who
fights near it yes this is an awkward
setup but it lines things up for some
wicked seizure-inducing action even
though gamers have become accustomed to
three-dimensional combat in the Tekken
series this game goes for an old-school
2d layout it also controls like the
Street Fighter series the result of
Capcom having developed the entire game
without any assistance from Namco what’s
interesting is that this fighter is
based on two on two tag team matches and
it only takes one character to be
knocked out to lose a round thankfully
you can tag in or out with your partner
at any time during the match the game
also incorporates a three-part super
meter this fills during combat and
powers X moves which are supercharged
versions of ordinary special attacks
players can also power up a super tag
this string of combos will end with your
partner tagged into the action to
continue the onslaught
there is even a desperation move called
Pandora which is only available when you
are down to a quarter of your health bar
this allows you to switch with your
partner giving him an evil glowing look
for a limited time complete with a full
super meter and extra power boost
another thing that’s new and radically
different is the ability to equip gems
these give you short-lived upgrades they
can be toggled to give bonuses to your
offensive and defensive moves as well as
your special abilities each has its own
activation condition and drawback and
only three gems can be equipped at one
time as far as the character roster is
concerned it’s bustling with over 19
champions from each franchise these
include favorites such as we you and Ken
as well as Kazuya and Mina of course it
also includes several lesser known
fighters such as poison and sets up for
hilarious battles between such
characters as kuma and Zangief there are
also several console specific guests
such as a joke interpretation of Mega
Man aside from the main competition
there are various game types to select
from these include Pandora mode in which
you sacrifice your partner for a
powerful strength boost scramble mode
allows for four players to fight
together on screen at the same time in a
hectic battle royale finally players can
hone their skills in an online training
area called briefing room street fighter
cross tekken is available for the ps3
xbox 360 PS vita and pc it’s more than a
bigger and flashy ur version of Street
Fighter 4 as it adds an x-factor when
fighting in the form of tag team action
tag combos and power up gems
interestingly it will be followed up by
Namco zone interpretation of the
crossover aptly named Tekken cross
street fighter
