Tekken 4 - more fun than a night with Selma Hayek!

[Tigger]

Well maybe not quite but it comes close and it certainly wears you out!!

Was massively dissapointed with Tekken Tag for the PS2 as Tekken 2 was probably the PS1 game I played more than any other!

It's latest incarnation is absolutely stunning though with new chars as well as the favourites, tons of new moves and drop dead stunning visuals!!! I'm hooked and I've not even unlocked half the characters yet!!!!!

Just wish I wasn't stuck in on my own at the moment cos Tekken is always the most fun when your fighting another player! Next party anyone?

If Ninas in that version I'll kick ya arse mate I am invincible with her
I aint got a ps2 though so I aint gonna play it
Unreal T 2003 demos out today though and thats what Im playing tonight, top visuals/gameplay.

Aye she's back and looking better than ever (but not as nice as Eddy's replacement Christie) but I'm afraid you've got no chance cos the man like Hworang is back and he's tougher than ever!!!

They really have hit the nail on the head with the characters cos all my fav's are there the daft ones no-one bothered with are gone and the new ones are awesome!!!!

What's the game like Tiggs?... I loved Tekken 2 & 3 on the PSX, but was really disappointed with T.T.T. - then sold my PS2!.

DOA3 on the X-Box is lovely to look at, but the game is so naff... button bashing at it's finest.

I downloaded the UT2003 demo on Friday (3am!), my initial reaction was one of disappointment, nice but it seemed too much like Quake 3, and not like UT, (one of my fave games ever) - may change my mind when I get my Radeon 9700 Pro in this week (I hope!).

I saw this on in a shop the other day and was seeeriously tempted to part with the money

Tag team was a massive disappointment cos IMO it wasn't much of a departure from the PS1 tekkens but this looks amazing!!

It's a yummy version of Tekken 2 - looks great and plays incredibly - at first you don't think much has changed as you can jump straight in with the chars you know and the moves are pretty much the same but then you start noticing all these new moves they keep pulling out so there's loads more to learn in it.

There's also a totaly new boxing fighting style with this guy called steve who pretty much only uses punches and the kick buttons make him bob and weave and damn is he deadly! I thought TTT was a pile of poo, but this is proper Tekken for the PS2!

As ever with the Tekken games it can get a bit boring if your playing on your own but I think this will rapidly become a favourite for at partys and the like!

Hmmm... I wonder if I can pick up a cheap 2nd hand PSX2!...

Sounds ace, Tekken 2 & 3 were my fave games on the PSX by a long way. It's ace taking on a load of mates after the pub or whatever.
