First MEGA Tekken 5 screens!

What do you want to see in Tekken?

[Living-In-Clip]

An improved fighting engine? Better character design? Anything at all? I\'m sorry, but Tekken, as much as I enjoy the earlier one\'s are nothing but a poor man\'s Virtua Fighter. The first three installments was fun, but TTT and T4 are awful. One can only hope Namco has got their act together.

Its not that i dont enjoy the games its just such a money spinner the way they reallease sequel upon sequel when there is nothing differnet about any of them

Character design seems improved(I cant recall any signifigant better character designs in other famous fightings except from SC).
I agree on improved fighting engine.But you cant judge since the game isnt even released yet.
I wonder why you found TTT awful.It wasnt even supposed to be a sequel.
And T4 was the first effort to change a fighting system on which Tekken evolved for years.It was a risk taken.It shows.Hardcore Tekken fans didnt accept T4 becuase of that.And it didnt work well wither.As a first "experiment" I believe that Namco can correct the flaws presented in T4.
Also I ve read that Namco was trying to change truelly the fighting system with T5.Now it remains to ibe seen what they have done.

You judge on pictures alone

We got 3 tekkens in a similar period we got 3 VFs.We couldnt see much difference since they were based on old hardware.
TTT wasnt supposed to be a sequel and was still based on old hardware.
Tekken4 was the first tekken that tried to be different.The problem was hardcore Tekken fans in arcades were used to the previous system, and also ideas were already used in other modern fighting games.What did we get?A not so good sequel

I say though lets not judge from these images alone.Lets wait till its released

Cant wait to see another boring title with improved graphics

Ok.Just watched the trailer.
Presentation is superb.

Graphics hugely improved.Also interactivity is better than the lame Tekken4.Lighting, special effects.The video wasnt smooth though so I cant comment much on animation.Graphics impressed me.

New characters:The new female character seems to have Juns moves and also extra moves that resemble a lot of the Aikido style in VF4.Probably after the negative feedback from fans when Jin\'s style changed they brought back Jun\'s style shich was similar to Jin\'s.The black guy has cool moves.As well as the other one that seems to fight a lot like the Shaolin monk in VF4.

How the fights looked:I believe it might be improved.Cant be 100% sure from teh video but it did look like a combination of Virtua Fighter, and Dead or alive only with Tekken moves to me.With other words it looked like a different fighting game with Tekken moves.The fights seemed more interesting and more engaging than previously
Dont take serisouly the last statement ofcourse.Only after we get the chance to play it we will know for sure.

Some moves cause way too much damage while you get the opponent cornered.The fight ends too fast.Too cheap sometimes.The opponent even if he has the skills if he happens to be unlucky once with the walls he is bound to lose the fight just before he even gets started.
I still play Tekken4.And on Ultra Hard.With Hwoarang I even finished it it less than 5 minutes in Ultra Hard.Its God damn easy.
In TTT though I find the Ultra Hard a lot more challenging.I cant beat the CPU unléss I use some AI weaknesses.Which are more in T4.

I think the basic problem is that most Tekken fans were used to different gameplay schemes.And its true that many didnt give it enough chance.
 
best opponent in T4=very good human player
Balanced stages I personally recommend=Hon Maru, Arena, th eother one in the city (forgot the name) beggingng in the center of the stage


btw:Do you have the PAL version or the NTSC version o TTT?

Both, I personally HATED T4 when I first got it.  Then I decided to give it a chance and really got into it with a few mates of mine, a few months later I tried TTT and found it to easy and it just feels a lot slower. Either pal (50hz) or ntsc (60hz) versions. T4 is just a faster game; I agree the AI is pretty easy too. Its indeed a MP game, but survival is where it can be fun.
Pretty much every mate of mine that has gotten fully into T4, and I mean with a passion can’t stand TTT anymore. As long as T5 keeps the button config and doesn\'t do a VF. I\'ll be happy. After all that’s what makes Tekken, well tekken.

a few movies

Seems the reason why I didnt get to like Tekken4 as much as Tekken Tag after reading your last post is because of lack of mates that are good at Tekken .In the arcades the only place where I get to find good tekken players everyone is playing TTT becuase they suck at Tekken4.I rarely got the chance to play T4 with any of them (ofcourse I beat the shit out of em ).

Yep.I agree on the Tekken\'s four left-right punch/kick button scheme.And it should stay there

btw:I d love to see it go Online

Seems a few new things have come out about T5

Color schemes will be in it for characters..




By the sounds of it, you may even be able to make your own.  Which imo, will be cool.   Add a little personal touch to your gaming.

Cool!Seems they have tweaked a few things in the gameplay too

[§ôµÏG®ïñD]

Yep, grabs have been tweaked. I foresee more people trying to use them now.  Also getting out of them seems to be tweaked... all good.  Just more for me to counter with. The stronger vs weaker system sounds great.. They REALLY need it in tekken.

Don\'t know if it\'s been mentioned already, but Namco\'s supposedly taking some elements from VF for Tekken 5, they\'re taking another risk, it seems...

Tekken 5 seems a lot more promising than 4, I\'ll say that much. TTT was the pinnacle of the series(Don\'t know how you could hate it, LIC. ).

Man...I still remember being blown away by Battle Arena Toshinden!
