*** Recently, ''Street Fighter'' producer Yoshinori Ono said a collaboration with ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' was "very unlikely" because it would involve the ''SF'' cast getting killed, which doesn't match the series' feel at all. So I think that proves ''Street Fighter'' will never involve player-inflicted death.

*** Also, both Street Fighter (Rose, Gen, Gouken and ''possibly'' Charlie Nash) and Tekken (Kazuya, Jun, Baek, Bruce, Wang, Lee, Armor King (in a way)) have had characters die only to come back in later games.

*** Of the above, the only character who is ''officially'' dead is Armor King I (you're also missing King I and Kuma I). Kazuya could maybe count as his return in ''Tekken 4'' was due to being [[Saved By the Fans]] while Gouken was [[Retcon|retconned]] from dead to [[Only Mostly Dead]] and in a [[Convenient Coma]], but the fates of Rose, Gen, Baek, Bruce, Wang, and Lee were left ambiguously open (with later games showing they were just fine), whereas Charlie and Jun are officially missing. Your argument (was that an argument or just a statement?) doesn't quite stand.

Lili and Asuka have been leaked in the E3 trailer (Lili appears ''immediately'' when the trailer starts, about five seconds in; if you're quick, you can catch a glimpse of her boots) and Asuka appears as the cloaked figure Chun-Li confronts during [[The Stinger]]. As such, it only makes sense that their [[Alternate Company Equivalent|counterparts]] from ''SF'' make the cut as well. It doesn't hurt that they're [[Ensemble Darkhorse|quite popular]] and since they weren't featured in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|MvC3]]'', they have a good chance of making it here (especially since the [[Power Creep, Power Seep]] element won't be as noticeable since ''SF'' and ''Tekken'' are more evenly matched).

Let's face it, Kazuya's first big action in this game's history is to ''flat-out murder'' Dan in cold blood and drops the corpse on Ryu's doorstep. Seriously, you don't kill off one of the most iconic characters in the ''[[Street Fighter]]'' franchise in ''the goddamn teaser trailer'' of a long-awaited crossover between two big franchises without that death have some kind of impact on the game's story line.

Keep in mind they said "Dan is not alive in the timeline of ''SFxT''". They did not say "Kazuya killed Dan". Dan may be dead, but it might not be at Kazuya's hands. Hell, he might actually be ''playable'' and merely die in a canonical story mode - it worked for ''[[Mortal Kombat 9 (Video Game)|Mortal Kombat 9]]''.

Since they weren't in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]'' & it would make no sense why ''Poison'' got into this game over the two of them considering she's never ''actually'' appeared in a ''[[Street Fighter]]'' game outside of a cameo. Plus they already have the character models & animations from ''SSFIV'' & it would make no sense to get the voice actors in just to record one line a piece at the end of the SDCC trailer.

Considering the fact that the Pandora cube came from outer space, one could imply that it was an artifact that originated from the group. Plus, ''Street Fighter III'' regained its former popularity coming from the [[PS 3]]/360 [[Updated Rerelease|online edition]], so Capcom can capitalize on the opportunity to put him as final boss. Here's to the omission of his goddamned [[That One Attack|Seraphic Wing super art]].

There could be a [[Shocking Swerve]] like having the Pandora cube being related to Unknown and her mysterious energy, or something like that.

* I'm going to have to disagree with you and say that I wholly hope this ''doesn't'' happen. The game's already has ''three'' [[Guest Fighter|Guest Fighters]], all of them Sony-exclusives, and all of them souring the fanbase. The last two, in fact, was Ono pulling one over the fanbase by taking a poll for characters fans wanted to see in the game (in which Dan was soundly beating the rest of the competition) and then crossing out Dan's name to replace it with Toro and Kuro at the very last second. I don't think that ''another'' guest who detracts from the whole ''Street Fighter'' vs. ''Tekken'' theme of the game (and is again exclusive to Sony, which is bound to ''not'' go over well with 360 fanboys) is going to be a good idea.
