Street Fighter X Tekken
If there's one thing the fighting game gurus at Capcom love to do, it's team up with other developers. Crossovers have been Capcom's bread and butter for years now, be it through the Marvel vs. Capcom franchise or even less traditional fare like Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

However, it's rare that one of their crossovers gets quite as specific as Street Fighter X Tekken, which teams up their roster of classic Street Fighter characters with those from Namco Bandai's flagship fighting franchise, Tekken, and manages to add in some truly unique features along the way.

Street Fighter X Tekken combines some of the best elements from each franchise. While the focus is obviously shifted towards Street Fighter for this entry, (there is a planned Tekken X Street Fighter game in development at Namco Bandai which will conversely focus more on Tekken's style of gameplay), the tag system and manual throws are pulled from the Tekken franchise. The resulting experience feels fresh, not owing too much to either side of its parentage.

The roster in Street Fighter X Tekken is an even mix of the two franchises. You'll find the familiar favorites from the Street Fighter universe as well as some choice warriors from the Tekken franchise like Yoshimitsu, Heihachi, Jin, Kazuya, King, and Julia. Each character has their own distinct counterpart which will result in unique pre and post-fight dialogue and new story possibilities in the game's Arcade mode.

The action in Street Fighter X Tekken is fast-paced and extremely fluid. Through the switch system, you can actively switch between your fighters in the middle of a combo, carry it into a juggle and a Super Art move without missing a beat. The matches are laid out like Tekken Tag Tournament matches instead of like Marvel vs. Capcom, meaning that instead of cycling out your characters when they get knocked out, you lose the round if one of your fighters falls. There are some new elements added to the mix that are new to both the Street Fighter or the Tekken franchise, namely Pandora mode and the Gem system.

Pandora mode is an all or nothing style move that you can pull off at the last possible moment, giving you ten seconds to defeat your opponent. You're only given one fighter from your tag team, but you also have unlimited Cross Gauge as well. If you're on the losing side of a match and both you and your opponent have pretty low health, Pandora mode can be a good way to turn the tide of the battle. However, if your opponent is good and evading your attacks and defending, then you'll find yourself in trouble quickly.

Street Fighter X Tekken maintains the general look of the recently released Super Street Fighter IV, meaning that Yoshinori Ono-era look with heavily stylized character models and bright, flashy Super Art moves is well intact. It's great to see the wide range of Tekken characters presented in the same comic book vein.
THE VERDICT
The fast pace of the combat and fluidity of the tag mechanics truly bring Street Fighter X Tekken to the top of the fighting game heap. The Gem system is a fine addition that manages to do something daring by offering some new strategy to the fighting, and the two rosters complement each other very well. Street Fighter X Tekken is a fantastic fighting game that nails the basic fighting mechanics while daring to take a few risks with the formula as we know it; the pressure is on Namco Bandai to deliver something better with Tekken X Street Fighter.
