Tekken X Street Fighter in stereoscopic 3D is unlikely… because it’s really hard (Tekken x Street Fighter)

You know how every time 3D gaming comes up, everyone complains about needing to wear glasses and how 3D TVs are too expensive? It isn’t just consumers.

Proving that he’s an eternal optimist, Tony Hawk is excited for the sequel to Tony Hawk: Ride, Tony Hawk: Shred.

It makes sense that you should be able to play songs you paid for when you bought Rock Band 2 in Rock Band 3. But should you have to pay again for the privilege?
