To be honest the 4th one was a big let down to me, mainly cos they ruined Jin, he was my favourite in 3 and they completly changed his move set, Stupid Namco.

I'm not going to be crazy and say i'm not gonna buy it, cos i will, I just hope they dont fuck about with anymore of the characters.

If you want new to bring in new fighting styles then bring in new fighters, dont change the existing ones.

And to anyone that sayd Kazua (sp?) has the style/moveset that Jin had, i dont care, it's not the same!

Grrrrr

You're right Kazuya and Jin played differently in Tekken Tag. I can see why they changed Jin though. I'm just glad they brought Kazuya back for 4. He's so cool.

I saw some screenies of Tekken 5 and it looks like we're getting a lot of characters from the previous games so it should be really cool. I'm pretty sure I spotted a new Jack there.

I was really disappointed with 4 as well. I liked the fast paced style of Tekken Tag, then part 4 felt so slow. After all the hype about it, I just felt like they could've done a better job with it.

Personally, I prefer Virtua Fighter. Still, I'll thrown down in Tekken every now and again.

For some reason I still expect him to come back as a secret boss or something. It would've been hilarious though if they worked out the story to say that he got killed in the Soul Calibur tourny That'll teach him not to bring a weapon (other than the crappy glove things).

They should have Kuma turn heel on him and eat him or something.

Jin probably wins the Tekken 4 tourny i'm guessing

They should have someone awesome win a tourny for once, like Hwoarang or Lee

Yeah, the Jin changing was very "Kyo Kusanagi '96"-ish. It made for some interesting play (and more of a reason to use Kazuya), but I'm not sure I fully got used to the changes.

I'm surprised they even made another sequel. This should be interesting.

Paul kicked Ogres ass in tekken 3, then left.
Then Ogre changed to True and Jin took him.

The fighting system needs an overhaul, to try and become more like Virtua Fighters. The 4th game was good, but allowed buttion mashers a chance to win with Eddy.

Buh? Eddy Gordo was in Tekken 4?

I thought they replaced him with Christie. Unless there are more hidden characters than just the "?" spaces.

Yeah, you complete it loads of times, then press triangle on Christie.

They shouldn't make it more like Virtua Fighter 4, cause then the game would be Virtua Fighter 5 and not Tekken 5.

What I mean Jonster is that they should add more depth to the game. Tekken still seems like a buttion masher's game. Its kinda annoying watching new people buttion mash the whole round and actually win sometimes. I think the game has some good parts to it, but the system needs an overhaul. More reversals, throws,martial arts moves combo's and less cheap air juggling.

Yeah I kinda agree with you there, but that button mashing allows a lot of people to pick up the game and play relatively good straight away (maybe 3 or 4 fights), whereas Virtua Fighter 4 is very complex, and takes a while to learn (I tried (owned VF4: Evo, wish I still did), but didn't have the time or the real patience required) to get a basic skill. I played for about 4, maybe 5 hours, and still didn't get all the concepts in the game.
Also VF4 leads to more speciality in characters, I think you're less likely to be able to play as everyone, because you have to actually play differently as everyone and learn everyone - which takes a lot of time for just one character.
In Tekken the difference in characters is still there, but less of a restriction.

With Tekken, if you know what you're doing, then it's very hard to lose a fight. I played about 200 fights with someone (we were bored) who had little experience, whereas I had quite a bit of experience. I kept losing on purpose to not piss him off.
When I played with another friend who was actually better than me, I could barely touch him.
It's the pretty much same with VF4, except button bashers are easier to beat.

It still does annoy me that not every character has reversals, but that just shows the range of fighting styles, not every fighting style does have reversals.

Anyways, I've gone on far too long, I would love to see the depth there, but I don't want it turning into a chore to actually learn the game before playing.
I suppose it comes down to preference and free time - if you've got the time and patience to put in, then Virtua Fighter 4 would be supremely rewarding, whereas Tekken has less depth but is easier to get into.

I think in the PS2 version he was a "Start" button Christie (he appeared in Christie's ending and all)...I remember using him in the Tekken Force mode when I rented it.

June 01, 2004 - Japan's Arcadia Magazine recently scored an interview pertaining to Tekken 5. The devout followers of the franchise at Tekken Zaibatsu paraphrased that interview for their own site. Afterward, the news hounds at Gamers Feed publicized this and added a few details. What are we left with?
Characters:
30 or 31 characters total.
Kuma will return.
The new Jack is Jack-5. P-Jack and GunJack take the place of Jacks 3 and 4, respectively.
Bruce Irvin will return.
Anna Williams will return.
There will be a sumo fighter that may be Ganryu.
Eddy Gordo will return (could still be a Christie duplicate).
Heihachi is not dead (even though the E3 trailer kind of says he is).
Gameplay:
Some stages scroll forever.
Wall interaction is still not entirely understood.
Wall push is removed.
Less realistic than Tekken 4 (lasers return).
Virtua Fighter 4-esque custom color mode is in place.
Possible reintroduction of the tag feature.

Thanks again to Arcadia Magazine, Tekken Zaibatsu, and Gamer Feed for the super hot details.

this was straight from ps2.ign.com

I dunno, sounds like another lazy Tekken upgrade to me. They haven't done much since Tekken Tag.
