Sony Exclusive Fighters in Street Fighter X Tekken

Capcom seems to be taking a page out of the Soul Calibur book, since they just released this trailer showing off some new characters for Street Fighter X Tekken .This trailer shows off some of the previously identified special guest characters like Cole (from inFAMOUS), Kuro, and Toro. The large shocker  in this trailer is Pac-Man and Mega Man are joining the roster.

There is a slight catch with Mega Man, since its not the blue bomber that every person was expecting. This Mega Man is the poor box art Mega Man from the really 1st game. Thank you Capcom for when once again trolling your fanbase. Not only that but Pac-Man isn’t fighting with his own abilities. He is riding in a Tekken character named Mokujin. These characters are ridiculous, and it seems Capcom is taking this game in a path away from other critical fighters.

All the characters in this trailer will also be exclusive to Sony systems. Xbox fans will be missing out on all the craziness, but that may well just be a blessing in disguise.  Street Fighter X Tekken need to be releasing on March 6th, prepared to start the trolling of its fans all over again.

Forum Friday

Want to check out what’s been going on on the forums in the last seven days? Read on!

We’ve got an action packed Forum Friday for you this week, so let’s get going!

Thread of the Week

Pick of the week this time goes to an fascinating and slightly controversial thread by Robbieiscool7 – Pokemon Truly Sucks Now…. Some folks, which includes Robbie (and myself for that matter) had been disappointed with Black and White for different causes, Robbie’s main one particular being the lack of interesting Pokemon.

Vader in fact enjoyed Black, saying “But I loved Pokemon Black. Only due to the fact I havent played much Pokemon games you must have played a lot that is why you are bored of it.” Green Link was slightly a lot more in the middle though “The games had been ok, though. Didn’t feel as very good as Pearl in my opinion.”  But will Game Freak be able to sort out the minor niggles knowledgeable by some for the inevitable sixth generation? What do you feel? Head over there now to share your opinion!

unova Forum Friday

Black and White certainly split fans – I was unimpressed by the graphics.
