    Tekken 5

    This game has owned me all weekend. Anybody else pick it up?

    As usual not much has changed, but I haven't played a Tekken since TTT, so it's really cool to get back into the series. Plus, arcade versions of 1,2 and 3 is an awesome deal.

    If you're talking about Tekken 5, I'll personally wash you in a washing machine. A lot has changed. Even old favorites had updates to their move lists. I like the fact that it's as fast as Tekken 3, but a little faster. And the graphics make you think you were playing a low end Xbox game.

            The opening movie is RIDICULOUS.

              Ridiculously gay, or ridiculously bad?

                  Ridiculously cool, actually.

                  But it AIN'T gonna trick me.

                    I'll buy it if they fixed the problem where there is no gameplay left after you unlock all the characters, because to me that's what ALL of the previous games were built upon. Back in school, that's even all you would hear kids talking about "I unlocked ten characters, how many did you unlock?!" Tekken is the "Gotta catch 'em all" of the fighting genre.

                    Can anyone tell me if this is still the case in this one?

                      well, you can customize the character's outfits and give them certain accessories (none that actually affect the moves, as far as I know)... for instance, Nina can wear a sword on her back... to make her even more like The Bride.

                      Though, I guess the customization factor is just a "gotta catch 'em all" on top of the character unlocking "gotta catch 'em all" so I don't know if that's really what you're looking for, Jla.

                        Itagaki would destroy Nina!

                          Thanks Magik.

                          I like hidden characters and secrets, I just don't want it to be the whole point of the game. Street Fighter is a perfect example, tons of gameplay as the main focus and one or two hidden characters on the side, but no more focus than that. Didn't Tekken 2 have 12 secret characters?!!

                            Tekken isn't about unlocking characters. It's about mastering their every move and being able to use them flawlessly against an adaptive opponent. Most fighting games are, unless you're only playing single player, than it just gets boring.

                              Mostly single player, I admit.

                              However, the few dual player games I've played go by too quickly.

                              The arcade mode 1-player is too easy. I know the whole point of the game is two player, but not all of us have the luxury of that unless its online enabled. Is this one?
