Have crossovers ever worked in games, or are they all just silly bullshit?

Have crossovers ever worked in games, or are they all just silly bullshit?

Which games would you like to see crossover?

Silly bullshit and "working" aren't mutually exclusive.

Marvel Vs Capcom

DMC and Bayonetta. Something like Dante's mother being an Umbra Witch.

>Which games would you like to see crossover?
Horror characters in Mortal Kombat
Actually just horror characters fighting eachother in a Mortal Kombat style game.

Digimon fightan with Marvel style, but with no digivolution outside of burst modes, like some having a damaging level 3 super, while others have burst mode as a level 3 super.

...

They've already kind of done that, MK9 had Krueger, MKX had Jason Voorhees, Predator, Xenomorph and Leatherface

>or are they all just silly bullshit?

Yes. Anything else?

>Smash Brothers

I'd like to see a crossover between shin megami tensei and fire emblem.

you were proven wrong before you even posted
and also got several stylish character designs in return

>tony hawks: dead rising

>MK9 had Krueger, MKX had Jason Voorhees
>they didn't bring Krueger back for Freddy vs Jason shenanigans
Ya blew it Netherrealm, ya fucking blew it.

fucking idiot

leatherface was singlehandedly the worst character in mortal kombat history.
he didnt fit in, he made no sense how he was able to attack characters that are literally spirits like ermac with a chainsaw and hes slow and clumsy. meat sucked but at least he was original

Official concept art for Bayo.

What?

Kingdom Hearts is pretty great, honestly.


I would like to see:

Arkham Batman vs Witcher.

Naughty Dog Franchise Kart Racer with characters from all Jak, Uncharted and The Last of Us. (Ideally Crash too, but that won't ever happen.)

Wolfenstein and Doom.

Fighting games are perfect for it, having Link in SC2 was really cool. Anything where story is relevant or demands a lot of attention tends to get silly fast outside of brief cameos.

Mortal Kombat vs Killer Instinct.

>there will never be a Marvel vs DC
>or a Nintendo vs Capcom
>or a Nintendo vs Sega
>or a Sega vs Capcom

Fuck, now I want Nintendo X Sega X Capcom.

>trying to apply logic to a game with humans who can turn into dragons, ninjas with the ability to control temperature, a half man half lizard, humanoids with retractable blades, a thunder god and wizards

I'd love it if mortal Kombat characters moved as smoothly as Killer Instinct characters

I wish Capcom would make a crossover with all their sci fi properties, like get Cyberbots, Captain Commando, Star Gladiator, Strider and Battle Circuit all together for a cosmic capcom vidya.

No has mentioned Half-Life and Portal?

Go play Project X Zone. It exists.

some crossovers work well

>Wolfenstein and Doom
They're in the same universe and are set something like 2 centuries apart, not sure how that's going to work.

Came in to say this.

They can bring back long combos like in deception

>there will never be a teams soul Star Wars fighting game

They could just come up with a messy story that no one will even care because they just want to see Doomguy and BJ team up, and also Quake 1 and 2

smash is fun

People would most certainly care, it would fuck with the continuity, if it was a spin-off "what if?" scenario then it might be fine but if they made it canon it would piss a shitload of people off.

Thats some bullshit. A lightsaber would slice through reinforced pig iron and Mitsurugi like butter

Heavenly Sword and DmC.

Turn DmC in to a separate IP as Donte gets tossed back in time a la Army of Darkness and tag teams with a younger Nariko.

NT gameplay is mediocre as fuck but I really did enjoy the story in Heavenly Sword. Saying fuck it and tossing another character from an IP they worked on could be fun. Then just continue it from there as a nonsensical HS prequel series.

>DmC

people would not play that game if DmC was involved. Hell, I think people cancelled pre-orders of that Sony All Star game when Donte was announced

Could happen in project x zone 3

>Doomguy finds a portal out of hell and into a Nazi base in the 1940s

Wow that was so difficult.

God dammit user, it's about what I want, not what people with standards want.

>Nintendo X Sega X Capcom.
Literally Project X Zone 2.

but people with standards would not want anything related to DmC

I should play PxZ2. I got it on sale

I am so distressed this game clearly wants to be a fighter. But doesn't have the budget for it.

>Asymmetrical co-op shooter
>One player is Doom Guy
>One Player is BJ
>Fight Nazi Demons

Gee, that wasn't so hard.

Super Robot Wars?

some games do crossovers well. Some do not.

Z3 kinda dropped the ball, Z1 did it well, and then UX had werid shit like the leads of Demonbane and Heroman being friends for no reasons

You'd think something as important as Doomguy appearing in WW2 era Earth would have came up in the large and detailed id universe timeline
