![Namco vs Capcom be like](https://preview.redd.it/2oy0vnrb6gad1.jpeg?auto=webp&s=78b6d81e3f9c028b7e59ae39aafc2915eb63dc18)
Bamco in 9 months: "Somehow Heihachi returned"
He already did that in T5 when he was first said to be dead. The Dark Resurrection intro literally shows him rising from the ground in a cemetery.
Kazuya came back from the dead in T4 as well.
Tekken does the same thing SF does. It's just a fighting game thing, people getting to continue playing their mains is the priority, not lore.
Forget Tekken 5, he already did it in Tekken 2. Returning from the dead is a Mishima family tradition.

No shit? I literally said he came back in T5.
For Bamco it was a difficult day to pull off a good plot for Tekken 8
For Capcom it was just average Bison Tuesday
Recently, the convuluted plot has made less and less sense though (since around Tekken 6)
Recently (for the last 17 years)
Why you gotta remind me that Tekken 6 is closing in on being 20 years old
It's a fighting game. So long as crazy shit happens and im entertained I don't need its story to be anything but. But then of course there like Mortal Kom at where the story is actually just stupid and MK11 makes everything before it feels like a waste of time.
We side step here?
It wasn't convoluted, it's just "Mishimas punching each other" all over again.
Capcom abandoned serious storylines long ago. They know where the money is.
Cammy does drive up a hard bargain
Cammy's ass, Chun-Li's thighs and Juri's feet... The Holy Trinity of SF6 marketing
Zangief's loyal fans in shambles
We come for the feet, we stay for the gief
That’s too true. But this comment caught me off guard
Because men like women
Is that frost?
Your flair
And Mai coming soon for the boob connoisseurs
So y'all just going to Frankenstein the most fetishy women with SF body parts? Better avoid Karin's hands. I remember them looking freakishly huge in 5.
are they bigger than Asuka's
Also Cammy's abs
And kimberly’s from the massive amounts of fan art I see of her here and IRL.
Ryu's chest
Also his potential bulge in the first cg trailer
And Marisa's biceps <3
Love the muscle mommy
You have good tastes, friend.
I NEED her to do her command grab on me
Of course a King main would say something related to command grab.
Based tho.
And Akuma's op cutscene
Bring in Mai, baby! You know why!
There is also Luke’s crazy smile and Ryu’s potential bulgy Wulgy in the announcement cg trailer
Just need a breast but who?
And I think she really benefits from the more realistic art style in sf6 than almost any other character I think.
Oh for sure, maybe a bit biased cause I’m in the Cammy boat but she does look the best out of all the character I’d say (second to my goat Ryu)
Yeah in the past two street fighters she was like overly buff now she looks more like a gymnast which is kind of a more realistic portrayal of what a really fit woman looks like. I think it’s all around a better look.
Yeah before they really went all Soldier without thinking much about what an actual fit lady would look like, they really upped the details in SF6 too gotta appreciate that
May God make every one of your good dreams a reality
It's genuinely concerning that I was surprised to see a real woman when I clicked on that link...
I'm always wondering where y'all get that stuff for the cosplays
Generally google char name + cosplay/costume and you'll get results, or buy each piece so that it's close enough and custom make whatever you can't.
Then there's the cling wrap and masking tape to create a mold of your own body and make it from scratch crowd, props to them for all that effort.
This you?
Man I’ve always been into Chun-Li.
Ay man, thighs are perfecto but the Chinese dress really helps too if ya know what I’m sayin
The screenshots usually from Sf_Screenshot or fanart from Hershuar on twitter really sells this too lmao
Aight so I took a looksie at the name you just mentioned and shiii they got some goodies
To me the top 1 is Ramlethal.
What i like the most is her jp dub. Such a soft voice contrasting with how much of a menace she is/was.
AND THOSE HOLY LEGS!
eerrn, lets stop here, things can get out of control. lol
Totally agree
Gotta love the fact that all it took was a single Burger to stop her from becoming the mass weapon of destruction to this universe.
You joke, but Cammy's trailer was literally all it took for me to give sf6 a chance lol
I wonder how good that stretch felt.
This is actually me. That trailer with Gief, Lily, and Cammy sold me. The game looked so damn good. But of course, no shame, Cammy sold it for sure.
Now I’ve sunk over 500 hours into it as a Cammy main.
I couldve been (and still want to be, ESPECIALLY if Menat returns) like you since Cammy’s trailer but I can’t for the life of me readjust my tekken only ass to 2D. Combos especially feel so unintuitive and uncreative as compared to tekken. Any tips to get started properly?
Same thing I'd say for anyone coming to Tekken from a 2D. Find a character you like and just do it. I know it's not the answer you might be looking for, but there's no silver bullet solution here. Even staying within 2D, going from game to game when you're less overall well versed in the broader fighting game scene is rough, but with each new game you pick up the process of learning another new one will get quicker as you develop more experiences to draw upon.
Certain things are a lot more standard (such as the combos), but I think just give it a go and play Cammy. Play a character you like and just mess around and hop online. The vibe is definitely different from tekken, but really all you need is a solid punish combo and the rest is history.
I absolutely love playing the game though so it’s super worth it for me! I say just go for it.
As soon as Juri was confirmed to be part of the roster I was sold ngl.
Folks forget Tekken is a sausagefest. 33 characters, only 9 are female.
Unrelated, but i thought of
It’s a sausagefest and I’m a fat german guy during Oktoberfest 🤤
Namco needs to up their game bro, aint no one in Tekken got cake like Cammy or thighs like Chun
Think again..
This. Kazuya needs to wave dash dat ass over here.
They need to make Soulcalibur again to challenge Capcom.
Just bring back Ivy she can challenge alone Capcom.
Yes.
Soulcalibur girls in general are just 👌
SF has better default/alternate outfits and sexier round start and round end poses. Tekken female outfits, intros and outros are a bit mid. With the stylized animations of SF, the moves can really showcase the character model's physical proportions.
Also Chun and Cammy are established enough that they don't generate twitter outrage over sexualization of female characters.
I think having the females be more expressive wouldve made a massive difference. Keeping the artstyle for the females as is, is fine i guess but its the expressions or lack of is what weirds me out abit lol
Our brains are hard wired to react to exaggerated hip movements, arching of the back, like in this dance routine https://youtu.be/cVaIPF7xnQg?si=-kc5uBtwe7-8SjLy
This is why Nina is still my favorite female character because of the way her move-set is animated. You can clearly see the exaggerated back arching when she kicks. On the other hand, I disliked Katarina because the idle posture looked stupid, and her kicking form didn't look good. Christie was flirtatious in the intros, but animation data was lifted straight from Eddy so her fighting form while good, didn't look sexy. Same with Lidia, excellent animation, but the form is gender neutral like real karate is.
Have you played the Bayonetta games?
Yes, DMC and Bayonetta belong to my favorite genre of single player games. The creative mind behind DMC1, Hideki Kamiya, was also the creator of Bayonetta. Unfortunately I haven't owned a Nintendo console since NES, so, I have only played the first.
I think the Switch is worthy of a purchase at this point. Get it on Black Friday. There are a lot of good Hack & Slash games that Nintendo seemed to have bought out.
I agree that characters need more expression in their movesets.
Lots of games have done this for years, but Tekken won't adopt. It's sad.
They are starting to do that with Eddy in 8. Once he does his b+4,4, he does a pose on hit, which is a step in the right direction.
Tekken gameplay animations are great, the best in FG IMHO, that's why its my main fighter. Just that when it comes to the female characters, there aren't very many super sexy ones like SF.
Also animations is the reason I never felt MK female characters were sexy, regardless of how scantily clad they were, they just didn't move right.
To be fair Nina is more of a sexy super spy stereotype while the others are built more on traditional martial arts
Christie and Katarina were also supposed to be sexy. But there was something missing. Anna is sexy in intros and outros, but the moveset itself looks more wild but less sexy than Nina's. Lili looks great when she moves and she is designed to be old money classy rather than modern day super sexy. Asuka is a tomboy and her moveset shows that.
This is a great thing, not every female has to look sexy mid fight
Also, they jiggle.
King has
Namco gotta start pushing that then, change his victory screen to him twerking
They already gave him a wavedash, we're halfway there.
He always had one, it was just hard to do
Yeah, but it didn't look as smooth due to the input. His twerking game was upgraded.
I see it as just another way to shit on people who like Armor King
wait y'all are fighting???
No, bamco is fighting us, it's different. Having your main in DLC prison and knowing full well he'll suck ass when he eventually gets released is torture
Lmao
Gigas has one but he gone.
giga-ass
too heavy they left him behind
R Mika's cheeks made me main her in SFV ngl that tactic does work i swear to god
Renia has negative ass and they want to push her as the new face... SMH my head.
"new face" and it's just asuka's face lmoa
She sexy regardless
This is why I believe Christie and Anna should be in every Tekken game.
But we got chest with asuka
yeah but they don't really push it, Cammy flashes her cheeks every 5 seconds but Asuka's boobs are barely visible under her default outfit
Instead we see kazuyas tits
they need to breathe
This is why we need Gigas back.
Cammy's bakery
Tekken definitely needs to express their characters a little more. We have the goofy endings for thier episodes, but they need to lean more into that aspect for promoting and marketing. Capcom has always had fun in that regard.
I mean, they know their audience pretty well (thank God).
I mean, Tekken also does that too
Tekken girls aren't bad but nowhere iconic as much SF girls
Yeah, I noticed with the green site
Man of culture as I see
Tomboys are a weakness of mine
Saaaaame
Nah, Tekken does it with the dudes. They straight up put Kazuya’s titties front and center in the main menu.
Even the new commers of SF6 look more iconic than the Tekken 7-8 new commers.
It really helps that the characters have a lot of personality and very different body types.
Tekken has kinda regressed to using similar body types for both men and women (was not the case in tekken 1-6 or TT2, but after 7 characters just started to have identical/similar bodies).
I wouldn't call Reina "iconic" yet because she's too new, but I think she's on her way to becoming one. They hit the sweet spot with that character in that it seems she can resonate with every sub-niche of the FGC.
But Azucena is super forgettable. And they even tried to inject a lot of “personality” into her but it fell so flat. Reina is cool though.
I know she's controversial around here but I think Lili's iconic in fighting games. She may be inspired by Karin but she's surpassed her as a more recognisable face now.
That being said it's true Tekken has no other female character that feels iconic or well-known like Chun-Li or Ivy Valentine.
technically speaking Asuka will be more popular than her, and she's not as iconic as any of the males and its not even close with the other female SF characters, as you said she's more recognisable than karin now.
but she's is very popular in japan, before sfv capcom made a character popularity poll and she was higher than Chun and Ryu (mostly because this types of polls are to dictate wich character has the higher chances to appear) , and i dont see anyone choosing Lili over Jin or Kazuya, also if you ask me Karin is way cooler than Lili imo
Well if it works...
I feel like Tekken marketing is just showing off the realistic graphics.
While Street Fighter is basically just riding the wave from its 90s fame. That said, I really like the redesigns in SF6. It's about time they updated everyone's looks
I like both, both games are good for me
If only Tekken took example on street fighter.... 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
Tekken is not Street Fighter, and that's good. I think SF6 is a truly great game. But Tekken is Tekken.
Once upon a time Bamco did that too with Ivy and Voldo sexualized ads. Iykyk
Long live Soulcalibur
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that Kaz's chest was used as promotional material?
Capcom knows its audience well.
This is why we need Bob. Imagine booting up tekken 8 and seeing Bob stare at you on the main menu
Something I’ve noticed between all the fighting game communities here on Reddit is that alot of people loving comparing their competitors but trashing their own team in the process (I’ve seen people do the same thing in MK sub-reddits and street fighter ones too)
Mk hasn't gotten a decent game since MKX, they're just depressed
And they haven't had a good story in even fuckin' longer lol. MKX was the last game to have good gameplay and character design, but other aspects like music, visual aesthetic, worldbuilding and world design died well before
And things NRS has said in recent years it shows they really intentionally threw it all away and thought they cooked lmao
It's now just another IP for WB to hoard money
It's a real shame because their PS2 games were great. 3D fighting in Mortal Kombat could be a bit awkward but at least in those games I actually felt the producers wanted to make something good. The story mode in MK6 was so impressive, like it legit was another entire game on its own.
MK has never had a decent game. It's gratuitous violence just to be more violent than competitors, and
IT HAS A BLOCK BUTTON WTF WTF
I don't like whiny and entitled gaming communities but I give Pokemon and Mortal Kombat a pass.
Those 2 franchises are delivering unforgivably mediocre games for the massive budgets they manage and, in MK's case, they absolutely deserve to be dragged to hell and back for their scammy DLC practices.
MK1 has gorgeous graphics and the story reset was a really cool idea. It's just the fighting sucks. There's a Teen Titans flash-made fighting game from like 2003 that has more replay value than that and you can play it for free. I played it at a friend's house and I swear I got bored after, like, 3 casual matches.
I guess? My intro to T8 was the trailer and it was pretty damn sick.
Well i dont think anyone was saying Tekken 8's trailers werent sick lol
This is so satire
sf is becoming doa lol
And I’m buying it now hahahaha, it’s on sale on steam
Based Crapcom.
Ayyyooo
Wait till the summer Heihachi's T4 fundoshi DLC drops for the gents 🍑
you forgot the feet pics XD
Tbh im just not a fan of Street Fighter character design in general
Honestly im fucking tired of the Mishima-focused plotline. It limits ACTUAL creativity for the writers and its such a repetitive thing for the last 20 years or so. Let the other characters get the spotlight, and have them crossing paths with the old ones to make both multidimensional
Fuck it, BRING BACK ANNA AND SHOW THAT WE ARE CAPABLE OF THAT MARKETING STRATEGY AS WELL
From the comments it looks like capcom advertising wins
ill say as a street fighter fan Tekken story is much more entertaining, obviously
Unpopular opinion, but I am very pleased they moved from sweaty teen fantasy models like Ivy in SC and gave us someone like Azucena, who looks like a normal human being
someone like Azucena, who looks like a normal human being
If only she acted like a normal human being.
What do you mean? Azucena is VERY normal. /s
Wdym, she's just one of those basic girls that made Starbucks their whole personality
Azucena, who looks like a normal human being
Normal human being? The character who barely emotes looks like a normal human being?
She's just on the fresh Colombian co- coffee
While true, she's also the only one that got a bikini outfit, so there's definitely still some sweaty influence
Agreed but how does that relate to the sf comparison lol
Namco wins
Chad Namco vs Virgin Capcom
Pure fiction….an attractive British woman? lol, nice try.
I’ve always believed Christie & Anna should been Tekken staples, as the eye candy. Retire Nina, have either Lili or Lidia be the staple blonde chick.
TEKKEN NEEDS MORE GIRLS! They would sell 2x more copies if they had Josie Julia Eliza Anna Kuni Kat Lucky by default...
Tekken could add a hundred girls to the roster and it wouldn’t matter if they all have the same mass-produced doll face
And no ass nor personality
Tekken needs more facial expressions.
Just look at her face an tell me if she's smiling or not.
My beloved English muffin 🥹🥹🥹
The rest of the roster was a bonus for me
Future: She belong to the streets
No bikini/fundoshi pack XwX.
Tekken has some gold but they just dont capitalize on it. Like where is the merch? No figures or clothes really. They got the nice plushie line coming but thats all i think they have.
Anyone know the sauce of the Cammy artwork here?
tekken superior
Kazuya-san is Kazuya-san 😍
Tekken 8 def needs better ass. Cammy made sf day one purchase lol
This is why Capcom is the goat
Bamco: coming up with some convuluted plot with the mishima bloodline
Capcom: FUCK IT BISON RETURNED LMAO
