Lol, that\'s funny.  You think PS2 games are hard to look at?  Have tried sticking in an old PS2 game lately?  After I got GT3, I couldn\'t remember all the cars I had in GT2, so I went to look and race a couple races.  I nearly had a seizure from looking at the screen.  PS2 is just fine, IMO.  I really don\'t see what the big deal is.

Things are getting better for the PS2 though.  Sly Cooper, Burnout 2, Primal, and GTA:VC are examples of this.  The developers are still learning how to use the PS2 to it\'s full potential, so the curse of the bland colors and muddy textures may soon be broken.

I think its just resolution,  lower resolution has its good/bad side,  high resolution has its good/bad side

No, I never said that. I just said "jaggies" really bother me for some reason. I prefer the smooth look of Xbox and GameCube games. I really don\'t mind looking at graphically weak games, for any system really. I think GTA3 on my Geforce 2 looks great despite all it\'s jags.

It doesn\'t look like it\'s going to be sooner than later though. Sure the graphics are improving, but slowly. Check your pm\'s btw.
Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

The X-BOX can have all the texture and fill rate and what\'s not but it ain\'t gonna have FFX,FF12,FF nth,Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean 3, Suikoden 3, Legends of Legia and the DMC series and all the other fab Japanese RPG\'s

I find that Tekken 4 is one of the few PS2 games that actually has fully bright colours. It looks excellent. It shows that the PS2 can not only do anti aliasing well at 60fps, but also have super bright, but not overtly creamy colours.

oh pstwo pleeeeaaase. That article is full of crap. If my memory serves me correct, you posted that off the amandtech review which is not only false but also gives a very wrong impression of both architectures. Yes, the NV2a is the most powerful GPU, but guess what? It can\'t even compete with the graphics synthesizer because both have different tasks to fullfill. It\'s like saying the EE is better than a Pentium 4.. duh! Of course it is, with the difference that the EE has to do a lot more work so it needs to be more powerful. The same goes for the NV2a... it\'s more powerful, because it also has to handle lots more tasks then the GS that is basically only there for rendering displaylists and texture mapping (along with very few effects).

Please leave technical articles out of this, because they ultimatly lead to false impressions. Thank you.

Too bad Tekken 4 sucks...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

/me realizes his post was complete crap and  had no foundation to it what so ever.  Therefor he removed his own post, for the better of the community, not to mention so he won\'t look so lame.

Any questions?

It doesn\'t flat out "suck", but it isn\'t as good as previous Tekkens.

It is our fault.Tekken evolved on 2d and thats the Tekken style we were playing and liked.We demanded 3d and we got Tekken4.Namco heard us,the tekken fans\' demands.

Although it lost its original tekken depth Namco took into consideration some complaints for the previous tekkens including the number of clones and the "robot" looking animation.Absence of clones and smoother more realistic animation are in T4.There are also some other things Namco took into consideration I cant think of now but IMO Tekken4 is great as a first atempt to take the series into 3d.If there will be tekken5 they will improve what made Tekken4 a not perfect  sequel as its is going to be the second attempt.

Namco said that Tekken4 is only 30% of what they want to accomplish with Tekken.

Explain pstwo. I can tell people that the earth really revolves around the moon and up a lil laughing emoticon in there.. but if I don\'t explain why I see it that way then the comment is pretty worthless.
