I agree with that up to a point, and that is why I prefer DOA over Tekken, however, if you are really really good at Tekken you can still beat even the worst button mashers. My gf is absolutely amazing at Tekken 3 - it\'s the only game she plays on the PSX, and there\'s a TTT machine at our University campus and she anahilates opponents there.
I remember vividly she was playing some guy at University, the idiot picked Eddy and Jin and she absolutely slaughtered him. The guy, obviously feeling kind of stupid for loosing to a girl, looks at her sheepishly and said, "I guess I need more practice."
And then she looks at him, and quite sincerely says; "Don\'t pick Eddy, he
telegraphs his moves".
I refuse to play her in Tekken.
But I agree with inteq\'s comments, unless you\'re a Tekken god it\'s very hard to beat button mashers on a consistent basis, while in DOA2 the countering system allows you to keep the button mashers at bay.
