]]>"I'm thinking about Itagaki and when [former 1UP editor and Q Entertainment's James Mielke] was with you guys that was a big topic -- the 'what are your five most hated games?' article where he said 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 were all Tekken, right? If Itagaki was still making Dead or Alive, I'd like to ask, out of all the current Tekken titles we have planned, what's his favorite. His answer would probably be Dead or Alive anyway, and that he hates all Tekken, but it'd be an interesting question. In the past, Itagaki had always mentioned various things about Tekken and stuff, especially on 1UP in his articles with [Mielke]. And there were a few times when I got p**sed at what I saw, but I'm kind of realizing that when I saw what he was saying -- after he quit Team Ninja, I think he was asked about fighting games and what he thought, and apparently Itagaki said, 'Well I don't make fighting games anymore, so I'm not really in a place to comment on that' -- I felt kind of sad when I saw that." - Tekken creator Katsuhiro Harada, speaking to 1UP about Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu Itagaki's infamous trash-talking of the series.

]]>"Obviously, the Street Fighter characters will have to have their fireballs. Ryu without a fireball just wouldn’t be…right. Obviously we’ll need it. When you look at executing a fireball in a 2D setting, it works almost like a jab. When you play a 2D game like Street Fighter, you obviously can’t go back and forth in the screen — you usually jump over it. But in three-dimensional fighting games like Tekken you can sidestep. So do we want players to jump over fireballs? Or is it okay to sidestep them? That’s something we’re not decided on, we haven’t had enough time to look into it. We have a lot of staff, myself included, who grew up liking Street Fighter. I’m really confident that we can come to a good balance between the two worlds." - Katsuhiro Harada on developing Tekken x Street Fighter to the PS Blog. [pic]
