Did you get the regular or Special edition? I see that the regular game from ShopTo comes with a Cross Assault gem pack as well.

D'oh! I ordered the regular edition -- didn't realise the special edition was about the same price, or I'd have bought that one instead. Oh, well... One thing to bear in mind about the special edition, though, is that it doesn't come with automatic sign-up to the forum league. To get that, you still have to click on this link (http://www.gamestm.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=18219) and sign up manually. *nudge* *nudge* :D

Looking forward to this -- tastiest cross-over since Reece's Peanut Butter Cups. At first everyone was like, "Dude, you got your Tekken in my Street Fighter!", and "No dude, you got your Street Fighter in my Tekken!", and now everyone is like, "This shit is delicious! *nom-nom-nom*".

In summary: Everyone should buy the game and sign up to the forum league.

That is all. Thank you for your attention.

Ok, so despite Capcom pissing me off royally with all that stupid DLC stuff (which I’m not going to buy –– I’m even thinking of spending my remaining points on Arcade games just to be sure), it seems like I’ll be getting it anyway. Thing is, Ono and Harada will be giving autographs on March 8th in Hamburg and an acquaintance of mine offered to buy me the game and get it signed. Couldn’t turn that down, could I?

So, the CE with two autographs for me, one day before release. Yay. Be jealous!

Yeh it's annoying that Capcom can't ship the Vita version alongside the PS3/360 versions to be honest, but oh well hopefully it'll be a more 'complete' edition when it comes out on Vita later in the year with more characters/modes etc. that the original PS3/360 copies didn't have.

The 12 "DLC" characters are on the disc, together with every alternate costume.

I guess I don’t have to say what I think about this.

I actually quite want this, but vowed not to pick up another sf title on day of release due to the stupidity in cost of dlc, i Know its optional, but man its a fecking killer, and gonna be stupidly overpriced to.

Worse still, with little effort hackers have already made the characters playable. I've seen a vid showing off Lars and there were ones of Blanka and Elena floating around before they were taken down. Dumb move on Capcom's part, knowing that the characters are sitting on the disc completed and ready to use is a real kick in the teeth (unless of course the DLC will be dirt cheap - yeah right!). Still, roll on Friday when I get my copy.

Order is currently being processed by Shopto, I wonder if I'll get it tomorrow (I hope :D ).

Apparantly Megaman and Pacman are on the 360 disc as well (so much for Sony exclusives!), I wonder if they'll be free like they are on the PS3 version? Oh, and this is apparantly Megaman's ending:

Worth it for the last line alone :lol:

Looking around more on Neogaf there are more photo's and vids of the leaked characters. Jack looks great and Bryan sounds really cool as well.

Good reviews so far, better than I thought it would do.

Don't bother going to game to get this game this week:
