A forfilling in-depth tactical crossover!
Namco enters the cross over crowd with this title. This time it's a Strategy RPG which mixes in many characters from both universes. The story takes part in 20XX, where the universe distorts itself and mixes up the characters from Namco and Capcom worlds. The game introduces lead characters, which lead the entire story, where they cross paths with the other characters which help them with a common goal however that's just half of the story.

Many characters face thier dark rivals as the story is told. The game clocks in to up to 100 hours, it's worth the time if you really want to know what Namco has to offer and the characters they features, such as Street Fighter, Megaman and Resident Evil meanwhile on Namco's side, Tekken, Wonder M.O.M.O and Tales of Density to name a few.

The game is goes into a 2D fighting phase, which is a bit more tactical and adds a bit more depth to the game, it's really interesting as every character featured is rendered in 2D and makes this crossover worth while.

Being a RPG, it's presents itself heavyly in Kenji, so it may disappointed considering it's a cross-over and locks out many players.

My biggest complaint is that it's almost plasters out Xenosaga in a blatant way to advertise Xenosaga as the theme (stages, monsters, etc) almost pushes itself alot more compared to the other universe featured in the game.

The game is really linear and once you complete the game, it's doesn't offer you much more however the game does do a good job present how all the characters can mix in and tells the story and fixes it with dynamic gameplay.

Pure Fan-Service in a good SRPG Package
As others have said it's a fan-service game but that's what makes it so good. Featuring classic characters from both companies it's fun and well worth getting.

The Dream SRPG for fighters
Now if you've played Street Fighter and you've played Tekken and wondered how good of a team Ryu and Jin would make then GET THIS GAME on top of that its import friendly features quite alot of stages and characters to boot

Very good SRPG
A very good SRPG for fans of the cross over series. It has a total of 50 stages and demands quite a lot of time to finish the game.
