| I wonder how this will affect the character select screen for the 360 version, are we just going to have two gaps where the PS3 gets characters? Tis a shame since there seemed no problem with Fenix being in Lost Planet 2, also a Capcom game. I bet it was all to do with some fool at MS thinking that the Chief and Fenix being beaten up by other characters would somehow cheapen their brands. |

The only characters I want to see in this game is Street Fighter and Tekken cast. Cole will be banned from Tournaments, and those cats are stupidly ridiculous. I would have been extremely pissed to see Fenix or MC in SFxT. I was glad we didn't get anyone in Mortal Kombat either. |

PS3 won again. Dammit, Micro$oft, Bill Gates is ought to change some leaders in your staff soon. |

Good, I want this to say SFxTekken and not SFxTekkenxHaloxGearsofWar, when I seen the guy from Infamous was put in the PS versions, I felt bad for them, I'm not even happy SC series keeps up with that guest character thing they do with every game, at least this time it isn't as bad as the Star Wars characters that looked really out of place in a fighting game about Medievil times. For people who say this is a shame, think of the actual fans of these series, we really only want to see the characters from the series' in the title. |

I remember posting about this on Siliconera when it was still up in the air. I suggested Jason Flemming, the protagonist of Shadow Complex. He may be a normal dude, but the various tech and weapons he acquires would easily put him on the level with the super-powered casts of Street Fighter and Tekken, plus his equipment really isn't that out of place considering the weird stuff S.I.N. is doing in the SF storyline and the general technological level of the Tekken universe (I mean hell, SFxT's opening trailer had robot soldiers.) Shadow Complex is a pretty big exclusive that a lot of people gloss over, in my opinion. |

That's why we have Smash Brothers. Only reason people went out and bought a Wii back on 08. Cole Macgrath doesn't even fit in so of course that's a crappy choice. Master Chief and Marcus Fenix wouldn't have fit in to properly either in the way that I see it. The creators of Soul Calibar are probably already making a 6th installment so I just want to see who the non-franchise character would be. But anyways,Same with Mortal Kombat last year PS3 Got Kratos so... |

I don't like Fighting games but I might buy this game for PS3 just for play as Cole McGrath because i like him so much in inFamous series. Best fighting game of all time in my opinion is Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I don't play or like every of fighting games but I did played lots in Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I almost loved this game. Some of my friends said Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Street Fighter IV and Soul Calibur II (GameCube version because Link from Zelda series) is best ever fighting games. :) So awwww Xbox 360 not get any exclusive characters add-on in. Fans of this game or fans of fighting games can allow blame M$ lmao |

If wishes were fishes Ono we would be knee deep in karp right now. On a side note I played the PS3 version of Mortal Kombat. . . biggest mistake of my life. . . Kratos was broken and I can imagine Cole feeling the same way. These characters are supose to stay in their own realms even Nicole felt half baked in DoA4 same with Link ect ect. I could go on and on but as cool as have Marcus or Chief be in SxT I'd prefer them to stay right where they are. |

| Not all characters are good in games. Take Soul Calibur 4 as an example. Yoda was bad because if you were fighting againt him, you couldn't even hit the little green midget. The Apprentice was good though. The 'almost' exclusive characters for SF vs Tekken would have been bad. And for the people saying "MS will release them as expensive DLC instead", you don't have to buy them. |

I can't believe people are so stupid as to say "I'm glad they're not in because blah blah blah!". Attn: fools, if you don't like the other characters, you wouldn't HAVE to use them. But being glad they're not in just because you don't like them (when again, you could just, you know, not use them) when other people would've liked them just makes you look like a horse's ass. |
