Street Fighter x Tekken x WTF
Here comes some new challengers to the Street Fighter x Tekken fighting game mash-up… and they’re goofy even by Tekken‘s ridiculous standards. Joining the fray are awful original U.S. NES game box art Mega Man, Pac-Man in some kind of power armor, Cole from Infamous and the Japanese cat Sony mascots Kuro and Toro. These will be exclusive characters on the PS3 and PS Vita versions, and lord only knows what if any characters the Xbox 360 version will have (Gears of War‘s Marcus? Enh). I can’t stress enough to you how fucking bizarre this Mega Man looks, so please, watch the video. If only to let me know I’m not the only one seeing this little nightmare. Thanks to Michael P. for the tip.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
