Cross two universes in one game - a thankless job, but always curious about what you get. The company Capcom has extensive experience in the creation of such hybrids - a series of Marvel vs. Capcom feels quite confident and, most recently noted by the third part. But the combination of very different on the mechanics of the game much more difficult. In the summer of 2010 the Japanese studio has announced a couple of projects at once, twisting together two unique world. Tekken X Street Fighter is still in development, but the Street Fighter X Tekken has already shown what's what.
Extraterrestrial provocation
When a meteorite, gradually approaching the Earth, was seen, most had expected no less, a repetition of the Tunguska catastrophe. Still, as with a celestial body of this scale, our planet has faced for nearly a hundred years. However, scientists have assured that most of the space visitor burned in the dense layers of the atmosphere, and the remaining pieces will fall to the cold Arctic wastelands. But this has not stopped the flow of news. Sent to the crash site reported on the expedition to a strange cube of extraterrestrial origin. Around the glowing artifact immediately accumulated military troops and heavy equipment from different countries - of course, no one wanted to share this discovery with others. Greed was soon punished - the soldiers began to fall into a coma, and even crazy. Artifact called "Pandora", started to show its activity ...
Screenshots
Unsightly plot intended to explain why the fighters from Tekken and Street Fighter, this unleashed a serious fight. Served in the history of reportage style - beautiful hand-drawn slides bring news from the event. As in Street Fighter IV, everything is steeped in style and technology, Cell-Shading. The men carefully outlined with bright lines, their texture a bit smeared, as if the artist's hand trembled at the wrong time, but the characters themselves modelki performed slightly careless. During the attacks the characters freeze for a moment, allowing you to enjoy and see the effect produced by bright flashes. One gets the impression that unfolded on the TV screen is not a game, and beautifully drawn cartoon.
From place to place
Do not produce a smaller effect and levels. Let the choice arena is small, but each of them performed with all possible attention to detail. Jurassic Park scared initially imposing wandering dinosaurs. During a trip to the hovercraft ever ask yourself: Do not run so far this huge mammoth to us? The fight takes place at a construction site next to the outraged workers and impress skaters. These and other locations - no static box for the match, but lively and festive "Christmas trees". Scattered around dozens of objects and people are surprised run, the sun gives way to the moon, in the parking lot in the background, flash cars scurrying. If that seems a little, then add that rounds are constantly juggling the scenery - for example, the soldiers simply jump to the floor below and continue the fight there.
Street Fighter X Tekken generally very dynamic game. The characters move with a sort of superhuman speed, and think there should be much faster than in the games series Tekken. Despite fears that the transfer of three-dimensional fighters from Tekken in the two-dimensional Street Fighter will be difficult, it was not so bad. Of course, veterans of the game from Namco Bandai does not immediately feel at ease - shestiknopochnaya affect combat system and the unusual combination of punches for your favorite characters. Karate was ill can no longer perform their virtuosic kicks, Yoshimitsu had forgotten most of the fatal methods, and Paul Phoenix is now not so strong in a fistfight.
Fighting technique
Learn how to fight as a professional in this game is hard. The battle is built on a "two by two," and often the deciding factor may be caused by the time of the stock of a partner. After all, until one fighter is fighting, and the other is gradually restoring some health. Hesitated, and now the «game over», and the warriors carry on hospitals.
However, even when it seems that all is lost, the losing player can win a rope to his side. For example, during a fight at the command gradually accumulated anger scale. You can use it to activate the combo ready or very severe strokes. For the first time in the Street Fighter X Tekken authors realized two interesting element. The first - a system of precious stones, set which is chosen before the start of the battle. They produce various effects, such as some stones to increase the damage for a few seconds more to protect against enemy attacks. The second novelty is associated with the notorious artifact, falling from the sky. When a character's life bar is almost reached zero, it becomes more aggressive and began to fight more efficiently.
And so in everything. In Street Fighter X Tekken a lot of nuances and rules, which should take into account, and then the torture of the finger, it becomes a clever game where you make three or four combinations - not merit a mandatory standard. Frustrating, only a limited amount of content. During the years of development the authors have done so little: after a few battles levels begin to repeat itself, and campaign scene if you want you can go for a measly 15 minutes. However, if you have "brothers Controller", then with the game does not lose its relevance after many months of fighting.
Advantages:
an interesting combat system;
luscious graphics, Pestryaev bright colors;
large number of fighters;
good soundtrack.
Disadvantages:
Multiplayer is crude;
a small number of levels;
a short story.
Graphic Style Street Fighter X Tekken instantly eye-catching. On the "live" levels, always something going on, and the men carefully drawn and animated. It is a pity that the story clips for the most part represent a static picture. 8
Audio Tekken fighters speak English, and the characters of Street Fighter - in Japanese. This approach is fresh and contributes to the delineation of the heroes of two universes. Great variety of music contributes to the battle - there is a punk, and 8-bit melodies, and even breakbeat. Surely everyone will hear something like that to him personally. 9
Single game
Single game takes a little time - mode "Arcade", which presented the story, is passed in one night. In the "duel", on the contrary, the two players can fight against each other. This game probably will not take a day, especially if there are willing to keep you company.
8
Multiplayer Despite the promises of the developers, the collective mode is implemented in the game is not the best way. In Street Fighter X Tekken is no lobby, and the connection is often "fall off". But will connect with the player can talk through a microphone. 7
Overall impression Interesting, collected and beautiful game, which, alas, lack scale. Levels and story scenes would be more. But this is the first project in the history of fighting games, where you can bump heads Chun-Li and Nina Williams, or even unusual, to put together a team of them. And it's great.
