It's an awesome trailer. They reveal Hugo with Poison, gets their asses kicked, and in the end, Guy and Cody shows up. It's pretty awesome that their adding more Final Fight characters, I bet their going to officially show gameplay when they reveal their Tekken pairs. Poor Haggar though, if he had his pipe it would have been a different story. Respect the pipe!
New Street Fighter X Tekken gameplay!
Well this pretty much confirms my guess that Steve Fox is in the game. But this trailer shows us another surprise.
I could probably name out a few moves Steve does in the video that are from Tekken 6 and seeing his super made me shout "YEAH!" out loud.
Aside from Steve Fox, Yoshimitsu also joins the fray to represent Namco in this cross-over. Sporting a lot of his famous moves from various Tekken games, Yoshimitsu looks to be a very versitile character in this iteration.

Mortal Kombat Freddy Krueger DLC
This is no joke. The 4th Mortal Kombat DLC character is Freddy Krueger, the man who kills you in you sleep.
"Rorschach is not trapped with you. You're trapped here with Rorschach!"
A very strange choice but it fits the gore of the Mortal Kombat universe and Nether Realms gave Freddy some very interesting attacks. Sort of an otherworldy Wolverine or sorts with claws that can increase in size and pop out of the ground. And I think Freddy is the first character who trailer showed a full fatality. I mean throwing a man in a large burning furnace after stabbing his stomach and neck with bladed fingers and then shutting the door on him while his arm is still out. Definitely something out of a horror movie.
Bravo Nether Realm, I think it's safe to say that you surprised us all, Freddy becomes available for download on August 9th on Xbox Live and PSN.

Gotham City Impostors
No, this isn't related to the upcoming Batman game (Arkham City). This is a first person shooter.
Gotham City Impostors is a team based first person shooter. There are two sides, one side is dressed up like Batmen while the other is dressed like Jokers. This looks like a hilarious game filled with quirky characters and crazy weapons. I guess you could compare this game to Team Fortress 2 but know this, Gotham City Impostors is not a class based shooter.
This game is being developed by Monolith, the guys who brought you the Condemned and F.E.A.R. series. Gotham City Impostors is going to be a downloadable game for XBLA, PSN, and PC and is set to be released in 2012.

In line with the new Tekken movie that will be coming out this year, Namco has another surprise for PS3 owners.
Tekken Hybrid will be a bundle of the movie Tekken Blood Vengeance and Tekken Tag Tournament HD, that's right, HD. Not only are we getting a sequel to the great Tekken Tag game, the original is also being brought to Sony's current gaming console. The game will come on the same Blu-ray Disc that movie will be on. Sorry Xbox 360 owners, looks like this will be a PS3 exclusive.
