Capcom Announces Street Fighter Vs. Tekken Games

In spite of its name, San Diego's Comic-Con is dominated by movies -- Hollywood always makes the biggest splash at the show by far. Comic Book sellers and artists are relegated to one part of the hall, and video games have an even smaller footprint than that. But that doesn't mean gaming's isn't on display.

This year, the big news was fighting games. Specifically, Street Fighter x Tekken and Tekken x Street Fighter. Pitting the fighters of Tekken against the Street Fighters in two different game seem more like a dream a sixth grader would have than actual products, but they are real, and they were announced at Comic-Con this year. Check it out in the video below:

Also in fighting game news: Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 also made a splash with the announcement of Thor and Okami's Amaterasu as playable characters in the upcoming game.

Bungie revealed it's new, easy-to-use Forge World for Halo: Reach as well as new modes: Vs. Firefight and Gruntpocalypse.

We learned a lot about Star Wars: The Old Republic.

We also learned a lot about Dead Rising 2, and got to check out a brand new trailer. We went deep inside the horror of Dead Space 2's panel, got a look at some Gears of War 3 awesomeness, and even brought back some important Disney Epic Mickey news.

We learned how Fallout: New Vegas came to exist, checked out the sweet dual lightsabers that will be featured in The Force Unleashed 2, and got our hands on the following games:

That's not all, of course. Check out the rest of our Comic-Con coverage for much, much more news about games, panel live-blogs, previews and more, more more!

    Comic Con felt weak this year. There just wasn't a whole lot of fanfare or announcements this time around. Yeah, we saw the complete cast for Avengers, and Bungie released another Vidoc......and more Marvel vs Capcom fighters were announced... Really? That's all I can think of.

    Last year we had Avatar, District 9, Halo: ODST, Zombieland, etc. There was also a lot more online content from last years Comic Con from G4. Didn't Olivia Munn have a 5 part video blog chronicling everything she did at Comic Con?

    What the hell was up with the Street Fighter music blaring in the background? I doubt that was happening during the panel. I couldn't hear what was being said!!
