I like the change of Max's expression about KOF Allstars collabs became from "JUST MAKE IT AN ACTUAL GAME!!" to a "Oh shit...fuuuck" when Justin said "Just throw in Mario, Luigi, Peach, or Wario, if you want shotos in there and call it a day" while Matt added "Hell throw Bowsette in there!!" It's just hilarious xD

[@dedmin6119]

Wario is a shoto and you can't convince me otherwise

[@IcanoGihoren]

The idea of "who asked for a Street Fighter versus Tekken game, cuz there's not a lot of cross over in those casual audiences" is weird to me. I was super pumped to hear this and I was super casual with fighting games.

It made a helluva lot more sense than a turn-based strategy game between the two companies.

it was the game i played the most on xbox even though i wasn't neither a street fighter or tekken guy!

that legitimately an INSANE take. people who play fg’s often play more than 1. probably 70% of the time

This game needs a rerelease with updated graphics, no gems, a refined pandora system, balance patch and of course new characters like Feilong so that we can get our dream match of Law vs Feilong

This is probably the greatest podcast I’ve ever watched, I know it’s early on but this is such consistent high quality!! Only way I can see it being even greater is perhaps guests from game devs to other FGC content creators BUT only occasionally, don’t want to taint the chemistry between the 3 GOATs here

[@rajangeta8334]

I would love if in a similar fashion they have a discussion on Tatsunoko vs Capcom ultimate all stars

If only it wasn't Wii Exclusive. That game had a lot of cool stuff.

[@ceej6311]

I want an episode later down the line all about Justin's tournament experiences

[@skydragonx8]

Another great episode! SFxT was so hype when it was first announced and was so good concept wise but its rep for on disc dlc and gems and such really destroyed what could have been a game that have been absolutely amazing. I personally still love it cause they managed to make the Tekken characters stupid fun and translated them so well but damn it still stings a lot.

[@Romezguide]

I remember after the patch I was so obsessed with this game playing this game all of the time but the capcom hate was always over me that put a bad taste in my mouth. I remember playing this game a lot like King/Law was my duo

[@thelightseeker94]

I agree when He said the tekken side of the roster is well done. The Mishima Family especially Jin are amazing as 2D fighters.

[@eeeeeeeev]

Would love to hear you guys talking about fighting controls. The old school (button commands and combinations) vs new school (specials tied to a button), your preference, how it effects the fighting community as well as how it impacts the entry level for bringing in new players.

I cannot believe I've only just found this but I'm so glad I did. Great job guys - look forward to binging all the old episodes and watching what's to come :)

[@landis7726]

I have been listening on iTunes since the podcast debut. This is the first video version I have actually watched. The editing makes this way better than any other podcast to youtube I have watched. Keep it up.

[@cthulhu888]

I always loved how capcom went all out with this game post sf4 hype, they put in a lot of work with the trailers and characters and the single player content was loads of fun. Whatever they were smoking thinking that gems would be a viable mechanic are what made it not really have any legs to stand on years later

[@deanbrooks7297]

That was crazy ono idea, he wanted a fighting game where you can build up your character ala street fighter 3 alpha however capcom CEO’s were like can you make it profitable? And thus dumb ass gems were born lol.

[@cpt.hebikurashota7545]

Thank you Justin, Matt, and Maximillian for this episode. In all honesty I had a lot of high hopes when this game was initially announced since I had hoped that it would usher in a new era of VS fighting games (still hold up CvS2 as the best thus far). As you gentlemen had mentioned the monitazation of this game really left a bad taste in my mouth coupled with Capcom's other finically motivated repeated nonPlayer-friendly policies really spelled the end of any good will or financial support that I was willing to give them. I continue this stance even now with the KOFAS SFV collab since the devs noted that half of any money earned during a collab time period goes to the parent IP. Looking forward to watching next week's episode, continue the great work and think it's great that you guys are having a blast while making these.

[@GrimRIppaTeamBenUpEntMusic]

That mode that could play 4 people on the screen fighting at the same time I loved it I wish they could bring it back

[@AshLeeTheCat]

my expectations for this show were off the charts because of the people involved, and I got so much more than I was hoping for. genuinely thank you as someone that comes from smash, I would love an episode about what characters you guys think would blend well into other engines. Akuma in tekken was touched on but I would love to hear what characters you guys think could thrive within the rules of a different game

[@ekd1852]

I also would love to see a Namco vs Capcom idea considering how many franchises both companies have, if you don't count Namco x Capcom and the Project x zone series. Another crossover for Capcom Vs would be Sega since they too have many ips and also own Atlus, so a Demi-fiend vs Dante rematch would be awesome and final fight characters vs Streets of Rage characters. The pipe dream Capcom Vs i would like to see but will NEVER HAPPEN is a Tatsunoko sequel or any Anime/Manga Company like Shueisha/Shonen jump or Kodansha/Shonen magazine, unfortunately anime/manga licensing is a HUGE Nightmare.

[@CapN_Crump]

Capcom Vs Namco and Capcom Vs are two of my dream fighting games. Especially since like you mentioned, project X zone exists. Maybe one day

[@anthonypimentel7218]

Bleach Vs Capcom could work, I played an amazing Street fighter style Bleach game on the Nintendo DS

Funny Thing is that Ono now works under Type Moon and Fate/Grand Order who is known to have a Creator just as Unhinged and "Free" in Style as Ono.

[@VaneHartless473]

I love this game. The sheer amount of cool shit you can pull off at almost all skill levels is incredible. Pandora and the time limit were disappointing but I think the gems and on disc dlc is what killed it.

[@new-gengd2644]

Your talking about what happened on XBOX's side for people who played the game on there ?

It is 10 years anniversary of SFXTK after all. Gotta be some mention of Tekken X Street Fighter that never happned.

I wanted that game so badly.

[@GarkKahn]

I want to travel to alternate universes just to play that game for a day

[@new-gengd2644]

That's the problem right there I was anticipating that game but it never showed up during the PS4 and XBOX ONE Era now the PS5 & XBOX Series X /S are here and we still don't know much about the game it's non-existent and vague

[@GigaMan91]

Mega Man and Pac-Man were NEVER released on the Xbox 360 version. They were in the DATA for that version, and hackers had access to them, but they were never officially released for it. Also, Matt was probably thinking about Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale when he mentioned Evil Cole.

[@blove88]

For me, it's still a personal favorite. It's the most underrated fighting game from that era.

[@CCDaDon15]

Dave Lang is a really important figure in games period and I need him to get that recognition on a larger scale. Just his history with Midway (MLB Slugfest Loaded and NBA Ballers!!!) and then what he went onto do with fighting games, and also keeping the Chicago games industry flourishing with Iron Galaxy being in the forefront with Netherrealm. Plus, his history with sites like Giant Bomb are legendary.

Hey guys I appreciate the gameplay of things being currently discussed. Best vid yet.

[@losnyappy]

SFxT is an absolute favourite game for me, this game was really cool/solid after the 2013 patch.

[@thelightseeker94]

The game wasn't good until 2013 and by then most people abondoned it sadly. The SF roster was just like sf4 but the tekken roster was amazing.

[@losnyappy]

@@thelightseeker94 I don't care for those who abandoned the game because I just didn't, I love to play the game casually even in these days in arcade mode watching all endings and rivals cutscenes, the AI is actually funny in the hardest settings, and if I am lucky enough I can find people to play online in ps3. The same I do with my fav game USFIV 🥰.

[@dillongeorge5866]

The game has an amazing concept, and honestly the final version is a solid game. The roster is really good, tho I feel like some of the guest characters take away from the experience imo (PAC MAN is fine, but then we got the wrong Mega Man, and three characters who are just there for marketing in Cole and Toru Twins) And as Matt said in his “What happened?” video, the way they did content and the gems thing was so bad (ON DISC DLC 😵‍💫) Very interested to see what Max and Justin think (as we already know what Matt thinks from said video)

[@ManoloRibera070]

That megaman was such a spit in the face for fans, years have we asked for a playable megaman since the MVC2 days. They added megaman from legends into tatsunoko but it isnt rock or X. And then they release this fat fuck with a gun as megaman. It was a disgrace man.

[@midsectionmark8956]

Great video and what’s funny is that this day I still love this game. The trailers hyped me up and I got it first week and haven’t been disappointed since. I do have some things that I would consider cons but it’s definitely top 3 favorite fighting games on the ps3 without a doubt!

[@MajinAsuraPath]

When I played Street Fighter x Tekken, my younger mind ignored the gem system and played it like a Tag Team version of SF4. Had a lot of fun with that game.

[@tolindaniel]

EX3's tag mode was sick, good nostalgia for after school gaming with friends. I chuckled when I saw that clip slipped in there

[@buckchuckgaming597]

Street Fighter X Tekken is still one of my favorite fighting games of all time. Being able to jump online with one of my best friends and take on the world as a tag team was a game changer. I realize it has a ton of issues but being able to move up the ranks online with a buddy in the same room as a tag partner was fantastic.

My favorite SF x T memory was getting the game day 1. There were about 40 people waiting for the Game Store to open and I was the only one there for SF x T and everyone else was there for Mass Effect 3 so I got to get my game right away and leave the other people in the DUST!

[@ProxyDoug]

I could see MK vs SF working if they leaned more into a cartoony style... That's like the solution to half of the problems when it comes to art style it seems. But if you had something more Todd McFarlane for the MK characters and Joe Madureira for the SF characters, you would get the brutality, but couched in a decent amount of stylization so it isn't the excessive gore we saw in MKXI.

[@ty_the_RetoVideo_guy5543r]

Checking ya guys out for the first time...Good podcast guys!!

[@kadosho02]

Past episodes are also worth checking out too

[@KnightsDisillusion]

SFXTK started out as a complete mess but by the 2013 update it became such a solid fighting game. FAR from amazing but it's such a fun footies based fighter. Getting hit once is really dangerous because the amount of damage that can be done and even after the combo ends your opponent has so much advantage, so every hit and whiff really matters and i think that makes the neutral so exhilarating. Especially with neutral like Street Fighter. I honestly really like Street Fighter X Tekken.

[@shonenderpb4760]

This game came out right when i was getting fascinated by fighting games. I was a sophomore in high school playing doa4, street fight 4 vanilla and tekken 6 and gawking at the early talk of ttt2. Tekken 6 took me by storm and id trade in doa4 for sf4 so i was enthralled by the announcement of this game and the promise of TxSF. I got it day 1 and its actually the game that i used to really learn sf character playstyles. The gems i always thought was a bad move but i truly never understood the true resentment of this game at a casual level. I was watching full combo videos and the music trailers got me going even more

[@TemporaryRain]

Love this game! Great talk guys

[@SPIRE_FAN]

I always wanted to see a version of SF4 (Official or Mod) that ported the Tekken characters over like they did with Rolento, Hugo, Poison and Elena. I know that's a huge task to pull off, but it's sad to see all of that awesome work only contained in that 1 game.

[@MagillanicaLouM]

Where's Tekkenx Street Fighter? It's in your heart

[@ZeroHero3d]

The only thing i really know about SFxT was the whole on disc dlc controversy. I remember that playing out and people losing their shit because of how scummy it was for Capcom to pull that off. That event alone changed how DLC was handled really across the gaming industry just because it was that big a PR scandal for the company. Even as an outsider to the FGC, i could tell that was bad.

[@El-Burrito]

I enjoyed the 2v2 tournaments that got held for this game, that's such a fun concept to me

[@jumpfold]

Tekken 7s ending cinematics into gameplay were pretty dope as well.

[@CameronsVideos]

It's strange for me to hear about the graphics/artstyle complaints. I find that the artstyle is unique and looks really cool and I thought that was the popular opinion.

[@DenOndeBoss]

I played a lot of SFEX3's 4-player-at-once mode back in the 2000's. It was so fun and chaotic. Grabs were not allowed, unless it was command grabs, reason for this was that the rest of the players couldn't do anything while the grabs lasted. But you and your partner could do absolutely insane stuff together when you were on a roll 😆

[@andrewhornsby470]

[@AlexJohnson-kw2er]

Matt your editing and taking the head of the podcast makes this. You're knowledge mixed with a pro and Max plays so well

[@Zevox87]

No joke, SFxT is my favorite Street Fighter game. Granted, that's coming from someone who wouldn't consider himself a big fan of Street Fighter (or Tekken for that matter), but still, I loved it having the team mechanics it did, and I loved the way the Tekken characters played in it, particularly Hwoarang, Alisa, and Lili. It's such a shame that Capcom's stupidity with the gems and the DLC doomed it the way it did. Also, Max mentioned the color editor, which I think is criminally underrated. I've always wondered why that didn't become a standard in fighting games, because it was fantastic, and doesn't seem like it'd be that hard to do. I liked it so much more than most alternate colors we get standard in most fighting games.

[@titaniumcranium3755]

I absolutely loved to play Vega, Hwoarang, Cody, Lars, M. Bison, Juri, Heihachi, and Kazuya.

[@All-Muscle]

I would love to see SFxT 2 which can fix the hate from the previous, the redemption like SF6 did to 5.

[@Kromatt]

Mortal Kombat vs Killer Instinct .. could work, since they're both bloody. But i'd like it to play more like Killer Instinct though.

[@reddragoner1932]

I bought SFXT for my PSVita a couple years ago. And I love playing that game. With all the DLC characters already on the catridge and pretty much an updated version of the game it is really fun to play on a casual level (I don't want to "learn" SFXT). The most fun I have playing that game is playing the Tekken characters...by far. No matter who it is they all are amazing. Even fighting Tekken characters is more fun. Steve is for me a far FAR better version of Balrog. With his kicks you can dodge like in Tekken and when you fight Jin for example and he does his machine gun punch and you dodge every all of'em right in front of his face and DP his mishimia face in the air... that simply feels amazing.
