About Street Fighter X Tekken
Two of the greatest fighting game franchises of all time face off in the first of two cross-over melee games that mix Street Fighter and Tekken characters. Street Fighter x Tekken makes history as fighters from these two bastions of the fighting genre come together for the very first time. Utilizing the same 2D viewpoint and technology that powered Street Fighter IV, this game allows for Tekken characters such as Kazuya Mishima and Nina Williams to make the transition into the Street Fighter universe having been re-imagined using Capcom's much-loved art style. Their looks may be different, but these characters have retained their own unique characteristics and signature moves as they go head-to-head with classic brawlers from the Street Fighter franchise in what promises to be an explosive match up.

Summary
At the end of the day, Street Fighter X Tekken is still a great fighting game. It has its issues, namely the online multiplayer component and the underwhelming menus, but there's still good fun to be had.
We like
- Core fighting gameplay is top-tier
- Visually pleasing art style and flashy super moves
- Solid PlayStation 3 exclusive content
We dislike
- Online multiplayer component can be a mess
- A little too many mechanics layered over each other
- Too much time spent going back and forth through menus

It seems that by now, it doesn't need to be said that Capcom is atop the fighting game genre. Now thriving, the genre was revived, so to speak, earlier this generation with the release of Street Fighter 4. However, prior to said game’s release, there was a noticeable lull in the genre compared to a decade ago. The teams over at Capcom corrected this by making sure that – save for the annual “Super” or &...
