It’s Friday because it’s the fifth day this week, but when did this week start? Can’t prove that either, I’m afraid. Well, the calendar in the bottom right corner of the monitor says it’s Friday.

Bad news today for fans looking forward to the release of Tekken X Street Fighter, as developer and designer Katsuhiro Harada described the project as still in development, but becoming “harder to justify” as time goes by. The project was always intended to be a two-game collaboration, with Street Fighter X Tekken releasing to mixed reviews in 2012.
