After playing SNK vs Capcom games, as well as the outstanding \"Marvel vs. Capcom 2,\" I\'ve learned that VS series games tend to ROCK HARD. Therefore, I would like to give some news on two very interesting games following this beloved guideline.

One is Sammy vs. Capcom. As you may or may not know, Sammy makes the Guilty Gear series (awesome). That makes it a shoe in for a great 2D fighter. Also, as you should know if you\'re here, Capcom produces the ever popular Megaman series (also awesome). It promises to be great. However, I don\'t really have any advanced info yet.

Another exciting game planned is Namco x Capcom, a funtastical RPG combining the two famous companies. The new game, as mentioned, will be an RPG, so we can expect to have all sorts of fun working hand in hand with the Namco trekkies. Here is a list of characters that will be playable in the game, with a few of their Japanese voice actors (take a look at the bottom of the Capcom list:D)

Spoiler (click to toggle)
Namco:
Arisu Reiji (Voice: Kazuhiko Inoue)
Xiaomu (Voice: Omi Minami)
Kos-Mos, Xenosaga series (Voice: Mariko Suzuki)
Mitsurugi, Soul Calibur series (Voice: Toshiyuki Morikawa)
Stan, Tales of Destiny (Voice: Tomokazu Seki)
Rutee, Tales of Destiny (Voice: Yuka Imai)
Jin Kazama, Tekken series (Voice: Isshin Chiba)
Klonoa, Klonoa
Valkyrie, Legend of Valkyrie (Voice: Kikuko Inoue)
Berabou-man, Chou-zetsurin-jin Berabou-man (Voice: Tetsu Inada)
Wonder Momo, Wonder Momo (Voice: Ayako Kawasumi)


Capcom:
Demitri, Vampire series (Voice: Nobuyuki Hiyama)
Morrigan, Vampire series (Voice: Yayoi Jinguji)
Felicia, Vampire series
Hiryu, Strider Hiryu series (Voice: Kousuke Toriumi)
Ryu, Street Fighter series (Voice: Toshiyuki Morikawa)
Chunli, Street Fighter series (Voice: Atsuko Tanaka)
Ken, Street Fighter series
Arthur, Ghosts \'N Goblins series (Voice: Fumihiko Tachiki)
Bruce McGivern, Biohazard: Gun Survivor 4 (Voice: Hiroaki Hirata)
Regina, Dino Crisis series (Voice: Atsuko Tanaka)
Hideo Shimazu, Justice Gakuen series
Kyoko Minazuki, Justice Gakuen series
Rock Volnut, Rockman Dash series
Roll Casket, Rockman Dash series


EDIT: Here\'s some characters who are confirmed in the game, though not certainly playable.
Spoiler (click to toggle)
While not listed in the released roster, a number of other Namco and Capcom characters have also been confirmed to be in the game. These include Taki from Soul Calibur; King from Tekken; Shion and Momo from Xenosaga; Akuma, Cammy, Sakura, Karin, and Guy from Street Fighter Zero; Tron and Kobun from Rockman Dash; Lei-Lei and Zabel from Vampire; Fongling from Biohazard: Gun Survivor 4; and Captain Commando. Some of the creatures in the game will include Street Fighter\'s Bison, Ghosts \'N Goblins\' Lucifer, the dinosaurs from Capcom\'s Dino Crisis, and the tentacle monsters from Namco\'s Quest of Ki.

I\'m on edge, people.

That\'s all for now at any rate. I\'ll be watching very carefully.:)

All info found on Gamespot.

It makes me sad that nobody bothers to reply to a topic like this yet.

I\'m not so sure if I\'m excited about Sammy vs Capcom; I am if it plays more like a Capcom fighter, not so much if it plays like Guilty Gear. Maybe they\'ll blend well like Capcom vs SNK did though. *shrug*

On the other hand, Namco x Capcom just looks too awesome for words. I really hope it makes it\'s way over here to North America. I remember reading somewhere it would have 200 Namco and Capcom characters, which is just awesome. I\'d love to see alot of Street Fighter characters make an appearance.

So far I\'m most excited about M. Bison\'s appearance in the game. My other two favorite Street Fighter characters haven\'t been mentioned if they\'re appearing yet...

Yes, I believe I read in the interview that Namco, when they started planning their \"all Namco Bonanza\" years ago, had +100 characters making appearances. Once they decided to joint with Capcom (ALWAYS a good decision), they had an estimated mindblowing +200 character appearances. Mayhaps I shall try to refind that article, as well as a release date on either.

A mostly GG style Sammy vs. Capcom would be wierd. You\'re right, Capcomish would probably be best.

[EDIT]:Oh yeah. Got more on Namco x Capcom. Apperantly, it will also be a strategy RPG, as opposed to the typical 3 man party type. You guys have played em before, right? Like FF: Tactics and Phantom Brave? And Disgaea?:D Anyways, it\'s slated for a May 2005 release. And I dug up the news article on it.
See it here.

I hope they would put Susumu on Namco\'s side. That would be cool. ^^

But overall, I\'m totally looking forward playing that Namco/Capcom game. Let\'s just hope it doesn\'t get canceled or not translated... ;^^

Tentacle monsters and Morrigan? I\'ve seen that before.

Joking aside..bah, a game like FF Tactics? The game I kept dying at because I didn\'t press L1 or something? :lol: Ah well, it\'ll be cool to see screenshots.

Relevant bump. >_>

New screenshots I found very interesting.

http://www.rpgamer.com/games/other/ps2/namxcap/namxcapss.html

One thing that excited me is a pic that shows Tekken\'s Jin beating up a P. Jack from Tekken 2. So apparently they put thought into the enemies...

The guy from Dig Dug\'s in the game. :eek:

Hey peopleseseseeps.... Just got some more official artwork. Capcom\'s looking out for us. Not only do I have more official Rockman Dash artwork, but Megaman Volnutt and Roll Caskett take center stage on the official box art! Complete awesomeness! And if you haven\'t seen the screenshots yet, please do.


I\'d be surprised if this wasn\'t the game of the year for me. It looks AWESOME. Lots of Tekken, some Megaman, Street Fighter, and a mess of Vampires and Darkstalkers. I\'ll post some stuff in just a second.

A ton of artwork here: http://www.rpgamer.com/games/other/ps2/namxcap/namxcapart.html

Bah, can\'t make other links come out right. At any rate, check the new artwork.

There\'s also a ton of good new screenshots (with Megaman, Roll, Tron, and even Juno), so don\'t hesitate to check back. Maybe keep this thread favorited for updates? :D

Sorry for double posting, but I have more new stuff on Namco x Capcom! Awesome new movies are now available on RPGamer! Definately worth checking out if your following the game.

Also, I was worried that each featured game would get about 2-3 character appearances in the game. Listen to this: from Tekken alone, you can expect Jin, Prototype Jack, Heihachi, King, and Ogre. There are probably more as well. From Street Fighter, we\'ve got Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Blanca, M. Bison, Cammy, as well as many characters from games outside SFII! The game features 2D sprites which move with extreme fluidity in the movies, delivering beautifully brutal King/Felicia or Chun-Li/Cammy combos. Many other characters can also perform combos. I\'ll get that site up.

Here ye go: http://www.rpgamer.com/games/other/ps2/namxcap/namxcapmov.html

Coincidentially, the year is also 20XX. Capcom\'s universal year.:lol:

Omg! Jin? Volnutt? KLONOA?! MITSURUGI?! KEN!?!?

Hell yes! That game is gonna kickass!

*Watches trailer* According to the trailer, it comes out in japan on the 26th of May. I hope it comes out here by the end of the year. >< *Wants Klonoa and Ken*

I think this is going to be similar to the Shaman King console game, where you move your characters, and then the characters engage in side-scroller battles when one attacks the other. (Those who have played the game know what I mean)

I really hope that Hiryu makes an appearance.....he\'s so freaking cool.

*Reads Gamespot preview*

Shinra? I smell Final Fantasy Seven.

T3h chibi Lolo! :D

Somewhere, an angel has lost its wings and plummeted into a hotdog factory. A really adorable angel.

If I haven\'t got you crying yet, than I shall get to the point. According to Mr. Mettaur, there is to be no US release planned for Namco x Capcom. I checked back to the source and realized that this is correct; there is nothing but a Japanese release date. I think I\'m going to die.:cry:

Er, not really. But this is a terrible way to start the summer next to my grandfather\'s death and the selling of my Summer vacation spot. I guess I\'ll have to be content with MMBN5...

Dude...read the rules. There is no double posting or beyond. Read them and be liked, read them and not get banned. Besides I don't think they have anything to do with the topic. If they do, so be it. But they aren't important I can see. No bumping as well.

If I seem mean I'm sorry, but I'm fair, though harsh.

Don't even bother. The chance of those two brain cells bumping into each other through that void is minimal.

Dude, that'd be sweet! Oh well though. Ban is just two clicks and you're done.

BTW Hellfire....I can't die by the hands of a noob....sorry.

Maybe he's suffering from an obscure variation of the Maverick Virus... known as blatant stupidity.

A shame there won't be an execution.

Okay, okay everyone has had their fun making fun of the dumb new member, now no more posting, kay? If you guys keep it up Doc may have to lock this topic and we wouldn't want that to happen now would we?

Hellfire, although you may be banned pretty soon, just don't post in general. It's just a waste of space. All Blazen did was tell you what to do and you start your useless little ranting. I swear, it's like your having your period or something.

(Although this will probably be ignored, -__-...)

I saw the like..opening movie or something on YouTube for Namco vs Capcom, and holy pies was it awesome. Course I don't know...crap about all those Namco characters, but yeah.

Also..there was no Pac-Man. Dude.

And also..people aren't stupid, Kagome. After awhile of trying to reason with someone they do give up. No need to state the blatantly obvious.
