Living Room plans Street Fighter, other CAPCOM RPGs
As you can see from the full press release below, Living Room Games has snagged the license to put out tabletop RPGs based on some of the classic CAPCOM video games.

So far, only Sony Online Entertainment have taken the plunge by licensing out their EVERQUEST brand to Sword & Sorcery Studio, who is following up with a revival of WARCRAFT RPG (and quite possibly STARCRAFT).
as one of the writers that helped feed/kill the WW version of streetfighter, I’m really looking forward to this!!
Andy: if you’re at liberty to discuss it at all, what caused the game to crash and burn? I’ve got almost zero information on the game, which seemed to only be available for an instant.
