The series I was talking about was Mortal Kombat Legacy, it's quite good! And apparently it was popular enough to get Bryan Tee on as Lue Kang, and Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa to play Shang Trung.


Oh they removed an assload of characters from Soul Calibur, some standouts though are Talim, Taki, Kilik (Ok he;s in it, but screw new Kilik) Zasalamel, Sophitia and her sister, technically Yoshimitzu, his decendant is in it, Yoshimitsu the 2nd, but its just Yoshimitsu, so why even? Yun Seong (I miss him) and some girl with a similar fighting style was givin new moves from another girl who had a similar style as well, and she replaces both of them I think? It's weird...

They added 2 copies of each of Sophitia's kids, Patrokalous (Or however you spell is) and pyrra. They all 4 have different styles, and at least Patroka-whatever is fun to play as, and the alpha and omega varients are very complex in comparison, like I cant even pick them up...

Zwei is cool, I like his style, though he's hard to use. They brought back Algol, who was the big bad in SC4 (Wich was good BTW ide recomend you pick it up) and they also added in Ezio from assassin's creed, and he's cool.

The game itself isnt bad, the combat's good, though it rely's on meter now making certain types of blocks meter based, therefore useless. But it's character creation is leaps and bounds above any other entry into the series.

Speaking of wich, there's a secret fighting style to unlock as well, for your created character, Devil Jin from Tekken. I never played tekken besides at my cousin's house, but if the hidden Devil Jin fighting style is anything like the real Tekken's, I could get into it. I use Devil Jin primarely, even though Cervantes has taken all my attention here lately.

On Capcom, all I can say is I bought the game used, for like 20 bucks, and I love it, even though the company itself is crappy I get that, but I get enjoyment from the game itself. And to me, thats all that matters here, since I got it used, they probably didn't profit at all.

Regarding sc, I loved it that sigfried finally separated himself from soul edge (and technically stole soul calibur) plus his armour in sc4 was awesome. And ivy doesn't age because of her alchemist research. Xenoverse is my current addiction

How do you all feel about Beast Wars: Transmetals? In my opinion, it's an okay game.

Street Fighter X Tekken came out ages ago. It was SF4 with Tekken characters, had some of the best online code, some awesome tag team mechanics, amd was the biggest example of why capcom's **** with its DLC practices. Look up Angry Joe's review of it, he covers it pretty well. It's a good game too, freaking capcom.

As far as I know Tekken X Street Fighter is either cancelled or stuck deep in development hell. Personally I say it's being cancelled. The fact they've been working on tekken 7 tells me the poor sales and reception of street fighter X tekken killed it.

well capcom are the kings of bad decisions lately, which is a crying shame as I used to love them.

[BeastProwl]

Just looked it up. It's still being worked on by like, 40 people. They said they didn't continue work on it, because fighting games had saturated the market or something. ok.
Well, tekken 7 is till their big thing, but its not vaporware.

I was going to say that this month was a bit unbelievable with tekken very street fighter

[SKYWARPED_128]

Sorry, my bad. Yeah, like fenrir said, I meant the arcade version of Tekken 7. BP had mentioned that in his post.

In retrospect, I should have deleted the irrelevant sentences.

DOA5LR recently released their Senran Kagura inspired costumes. These packs allow for battle damage when the hits reach a certain level of damage. Kind like Fighting Vipers and Soul Calibur IV implemented. (Btw, prefered the damage physics of SC IV over SC V which felt kind of a downgrade to be honest)

Anyway, I was wondering what took KT that long to implement the damage effect as they already included dirt, grime and sweat/transparencies.

The PS4 version really make the beautiful fighters even more gorgeous. Momiji in PS3 was hawt but when viewed in certain angles, the light sourcing makes her face look weird. Same with Kasumi's eyes. Now that issue is past tense.

[SKYWARPED_128]

Anyone know when Tekken 7's coming out for the PS4? And as slim as the chances are, might there be a PS3 version?

IMO, the jump in graphics from the PS3 to the PS4 isn't quite as wide as, say, the jump from the PS1 to the PS2. I find PS3 graphics to still be good enough that they don't look dated, so if there's a PS3 version of a game, I usually try to get that once since it's cheaper than the PS4 version.

Again, just my opinions here.
