BREAKING NEWS : Tekken 4 & Soul Calibur Comfirmed!
« on: May 17, 2001, 02:44:34 PM »
SonySource has just learned from a Namco representative, who whished to remain anonymous that both Soul Calibur 2 and Tekken 4 are indeed in development.

Tekken 4 is on test in select arcades in Japan as we speak, running on the System 246 arcade hardware. The representative has told us that Namco hopes to release Tekken 4 before the end of the summer.

Soul Calibur - The Next Chapter (tentative) has also been confirmed to be up and running, but is not on test at this time. The game is also running on the System 246 hardware, and is expected to be released before year\'s end.

Both games will be coming to arcades before home versions are released, and Namco has stated that they have no plans for ports to the Xbox or Gamecube. The games will remain a Sony exclusive.

We\'ll have more info on these two highly anticipated games, including High-Resolution video of the two games from the show floor. The video does not include gameplay footage, as Namco is being very secretive at the moment, but we have character renders and models as well as new logos from the games ready to go. The video should be uploaded shortly. Until then, stay tuned for further developments!


 I can\'t wait to see some screenshots on both games! :D

They will first go to the arcades, then come home only to the PS2.  We will see Tekken 4 in arcades as early as the end of the Summer!

This is from Sonysource:

They also posted this in a different article:

Namco\'s booth featured an interesting surprise earlier today. It seems that there are short clips of both Tekken 4 and Soul Calibur 2 in action in a newsreel that Namco is running nonstop in their booth.

This certainly clears up any doubt as to whether or not the games actually exist.

We\'ll have a clip of the video that includes Tekken 4 and SC2 shortly, so stay tuned!




So it doesn\'t sound like it\'s playable, but we will get to see something on it!  That\'s better than nothing. :)

Here is the address to their main site just incase they update with a movie:

How so? Tekken 4 will just be another god damn rehash so Nintendo fans won\'t really miss out on anything. I hate fighting games, but lets be realistic about this. NGC and Xbox have many other phenomenal exclusive games that will make up for these two. There is no big blow to NGC or Xbox because they don\'t have two good fighting games. NGC will have Smash Bros( I have the early impressions of this game so no one tempt me to posting them) and Xbox has Doa3. It all evens out perfectly in the end. Every system will have their exclusive fighting hit. I hate it when PS2 fans exaggerate like that...

I think it is a blow to the others. Tekken series is such a popular game. More popular than the DOA series. It\'s not a huge blow but it might stop a few people from going over to the other systems.
