Street Fighter X Tekken TGS 2011 trailer that would blow your mind

/

A new trailer for Street Fighter X Tekken has emerged from this year's TGS(Tokyo Game Show), and compared to the other video that was released prior to the start of TGS, this one reveals four new characters and a couple of new game modes for Street Fighter X Tekken.

The four new characters are Rolento and Zangief for Street Fighter and Heihachi and Lili for Tekken. They actually mention a story for Street Fighter this time around and reveal a couple of new modes like 2 on 2 duel battles, Scramble Mode(which is just CHAOS), plus an online training mode so you can practice with a friend while waiting for fight requests.

They also started talking about Pandora, which makes you sacrifice your partner to give your other character a boost and look badass(Akuma style). The story of Street Fighter X Tekken also revolves around this Pandora device which i'm guessing they will start talking about in the future. Take a lot at the trailer below.

The sequel to the most linear Final Fantasy game you will ever play is 90% done. Producer Yoshinori Kitase said the game has been in development for one and a half years.


Andriasang reports that it was hinted they will announce a solid release date of Final Fantasy XIII - 2 during the TGS 2011(Tokyo Game Show 2011). During a Q&A held in Tokyo, one of the attendees asked Final Fantasy XIII-2 director Motomu Toriyama for a specific date. He replied with Tokyo and a series of X's. Tokyo is the only hint we need since we know that TGS 2011 is days away. With the announcement of the game at 90%, there's a huge possibility that they will hit a 2011 release.


TGS 2011 is happening this Thursday, Sept 15 - 18 so expect more info about Final Fantasy XIII by the end of the week.
