Nah... Tattoo Assasins vs Bio Freaks!

Seriously though... seems like a terrible idea to me. Character-wise tekken's characters have always been pretty much rip-offs of characters from other series, including street fighter. Fighting wise Street Fighter is a .. well.. street fighter and tekken is a grappler, more closely related to wrasslin games. I personally could never stand the tekken fighting system. I know some like it but I've got a feeling that those people don't really care for the street fighter gameplay.
This dual game thing seems to have the same issues as capcom vs snk/snk vs capcom from back in the day. Namely that you have your favorite engine (street fighter or snk) and it has all your favorites on the roster and then the other half of the characters are lame ones from another series you either don't care for or no little to nothing about.
With all that being said, if this game makes pac-man vs mega man possible I'll take back everything I just said. ;)

I don't think so. Street Fighter itself is the archetypal rip-off -- see "Master of The Flying Guillotine" and countless other *much older* martial arts movies for reference. Street Fighter just started the boom. Tekken's bigger problem is ripping itself off; there are still a lot of shared moves/techniques between characters. It's much better than the past days of model swaps (Yoshimitsu/Kunimitsu anyone?) but it's still there.

Huh? In that they both... have throws... ?:dunno I'm not following you here. Please elaborate.
Anyway, I don't think the engines are all that drastically different. I mean, you could get nitpicky and start talking about super-cancels and "chickens" and other pro-level "timing" ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---... what it really boils down to is how they decide to handle jumping and projectiles (both of which don't feature too prominently in Tekken) and movement on the z-axis (which isn't in Street Fighter.)
I like both games. I like both stories. I'm interested in seeing how they (Cap and Nam) each decide to integrate the worlds, particularly regarding the above mentioned gameplay idiosyncrasies. We've got a damn long time to wait though, so I'm not getting too excited...

well Im sure the SFxT is gonna play like Street Fighter 4 and the TxSF is gonna play like tekken. You are aware its TWO games being dev'ed right?
