Harada still open to VF
cross over !
Namco is still
interested in doing a Tekken vs. VF title, according to Tekken 6
director Katsuhiro Harad. Namco
has
openly expressed its desire to bring the two genre-leading heavyweights
together on several occasions in the past – a desire that’s not gone
away. Speaking
to 360 Gamer, Harada said that a Tekken vs. VF game had come so close
to
happening on a few occasions, that Namco had even tested elements of
the gameplay
that could go into such a game. “The
truth is that I have been working to fulfil this dream from over ten
years
ago,” Harada replied, when asked if such a game could happen.

“There
were several occasions on which it came close to realisation. Opinions
may
vary, but I have wanted to do this for a long time. Therefore, the
chance is
not zero. It is possible.
“However,
there would be many difficulties during actual development. First off,
which
team would develop it? I have some ideas for the controls and fighting
system.
Some parts have even been tested.
“It’s
really up to the fans and whether they want it. If you have opinions
about
this, please send them to me!”Harada
didn’t mention how things were looking at the moment. But with Mario
&
Sonic at the Olympics having done well for Sega, hopefully we’ll see
its other
great franchise given the chance to link up with its biggest rival.
