Check this out.Its the coolest Tekken ending IMO and it makes me want it to become a movie even more.It also gives a hint that there will be a new Tekken.

tekken is the the definition of a good fighting game i dont kno how people can play VF4 and say its a DEEP fighter i play it against my friends all the time and i try to see the deepness but how deep is a game where all the people u fight just love to sweep u wit that oh so annoying " swooooooooooosh" and then stomp the hell out of ur head with a high flying manuveur cause thats all they ever do. r my friend s the only ones who play like that?


Don\'t confuse lack of depth with bad playing skills. You just suck at the game. Anyone who even has a remote clue on how to play VF4 with any given character can avoid that "swoosh" sweep.

In my opinion VF4 lacked depth. I am not looking for some realistic martial arts game. All I wanna do is pound the hell outta my oponent.

Do you realize you contradicted yourself? You  don\'t want a game that has realisitic martial arts, like VF4 - Yet you say it lacked depth? You just want to "pound the hella outta my opponent" - well, that means you want a game that lacks depth , which could be the reason you didn\'t like VF4. Tekken simply is not near as deep as VF4.

And I\'m sorry, but beyond Jin the Tekken series has the worst character design. A giant beer / panda? Jesus...

Tekken 2 was the highlight of the series. And as for Nacmo\'s 30% comment, well, it is no excuse for them to say that Tekken 4 is only 30% of what they envision the sequel. They should of made it more liker at least 70%, instead they opted to be lazy.

/me waits for Soul Calibur 2 , but has a feeling it will suck. Damn multi-platform games. They never turn out the way you want \'em to.

Wait a sec there.Because of some stupid looking characters like that BEAR it doesnt mean the series had the worse character design.Tekken\'s good characters have a better impact than the ones of the VF series.Lets see.Jackie...a spiky blond haired man,his sister Sarah,a blond haired girl,Jeffry a bearded African looking man,Lau a Tao Pipi(DragonBall) looking asian,Pai just a chinese girl,Wolf a typical wrestler etc.

I found only Akira,Lion and Shun very distinct.

Vf\'s characters are good.Nod bad.Not the greatest either.They are too typical looking.

The tiger voice and mask make King,the mysterious lioned glance,hair and the thunderus gloves make Jin,the long  red haired and not common seen TaeKwonDo clothing make Bob,the maniac looking "universal soldier" is bryan,the Bruce Lee like moustache,voice and moves make Law,Chackie Chan like long haired cop is lei etc....When u see some specific characteristics they make u say "oh that reminds me of that character".

Bah, the tiger guy sucked. To make matter worst, all the characters in the default selection in T4 are crummy..except for  maybe Christie(just to oogle at her boobs) and that Chinese girl, forgot her name.

And i TOTALLY disagree about VF4 same as T4 in terms of character reaction animation. Try kicking someone from the back and u\'ll see how realistic is VF4 compared to T4 which seems to jump a few frames of animation quite frequently and the characters just look out of placed.

As for not able to pass stage 1,2,3...in T4..I really have no words but U SUCK. I don\'t mean to offend but I can just whip to the end without so much of a sweat but just using a few same tactics(more like non-tactic random smashing).

All the characters in VF4 are fairly distinguishble with their style and u need to exploit their strength and weakness to win. I could play this game for a few years and not bored with it.

The lei fang(the monk guy, was it Lei Fang? Can\'t remember) characters in VF4 is a joy to play and behold. there\'s no other game on the planet where u can don the Shaolin robe and fight like a real(well, almost) Shaolin monk! Period!


And after the sucky DC VF3 version(graphics and gameplaywise), VF4 on PS2 is sweet redemption!

Amen, Paul. Though I disagree to an extent about VF3 being sucky in the gameplay department. While it did not live up to the set VF standards, it certainly was a good game, just didn\'t work out quite like Yu Suzuki had planned.

*Ignores Anti-Tekken comments*

Hwoarang ownz!

Virtua Fighter may be more deep, but I\'d take Tekken any day. Most peoples friends are not die hard gamers, therefore, they stand no chance against against people who play games 24/7.

It\'s more fun actually having a challenge in a game. It\'s more fun that way. Virtua Fighter is designed for mainly one player. ;) Tekken has more 2 player fun.

Tekken 4 (arcade) was more uninspired, overhyped, and underwhelming than the disappointing Soul Calibur 2 (arcade.)

Here\'s hoping that both Tekken 4 and SC2 feature many improvements and new features not found in the arcade units.

Why does he suck?And why are u judging only by their default costumes?Howarang is cool in his TaeKwonDo suit.I dont see anything wrong with Lei or Kazuya or Law.Especially Law.I dont see much frame jumping in T4.It has been reduced a lot since TTT.Perhaps u dont give enough attention to the character reactions in T4 either.

I suck?Nope.I am extremely good at Tekken.Perhaps the version u playied was set in easy difficulty.I could beat TTT in Ultra Hard when I first playied T4(Perhaps I forgot to mention that I can now finish it anytime).I am not the only one that found T4 different.There are many Tekken players that found T4 more difficult too.They beat TTT easily,know chain combos,counter throws etc but they couldnt beat T4 the first times of play.Most of them have even given up trying to learn T4.They continue with TTT instead.

VF4 last longer mostly because of better AI(which is something I admire a lot in the VF series) and more difficulty at learning the moves.

In T4 characters are distinguishable too.Its the previous ones that had similar characters(although differently used to win.Especially playing against an expert).Dont tell me now that Law and Lee are almost the same thing for an example.

About Fang\'s stance changing isnt realstic.Generally almost every move in VF4 are based on real martial arts but they arent realistic looking.I also think they could have added more martial arts than introducing two characters doing Jeet Kune Do(even if they use different tactics and power-something I mentioned before)and another two doing similar martial art like Lau and Pai.
Instead of ditching and say that VF completely sucks(Originally posted by Paul:Tekken 4 sucks period) I see it as a great fighting game and I do play and want to master VF.I only prefer Tekken4 more for the reasons I said before.

Playing against a weak AI(like in most Tekkens) u dont have the chance to.I think u should watch a Korean Tekken4 match.

VF4 has Lei Fei, DOA3 has Lei Fang (the girl), and Tekken has Lei Wulong.  Just so you know. :)

Anyways, I would love to get involved in the argument, but I have no time.  I\'ll just say this: Comparing Tekken to VF is stupid IMO.  They play completely differently, and are targeted at completely different audiences.  We can all say which we think is the better game, but in the end, it is just an opinion.  Comments like (taking quotes from the beginning and end of the thread), "[The Tekken series] doesn\'t seem to be progressing any" or, "Generally almost every move in VF4 are based on real martial arts but they arent realistic looking" doesn\'t change the facts;  It only distorts them.  All everyone here is doing (for the most part) is bashing the other game trying to make their game-of-choice look better.

Just accept that different people have different tastes, and determining which game is the best (like the title of this thread leads us to do) is impossible.

In the argument there was a reference to VF4 as how near to perfection it is as a martial arts game compared to Tekken.I mentioned its imperfections as a true martial game trying to prove it is not the Tekken "eliminator" or that Tekken is crap or inferior compared to it.

But you are right that in the end is just an opinion.Thats why we shouldnt say this is crap or this is sh!t etc.Because at the end the thread becomes an effort to force opinions
