This game was okay it was to quick meaning the bar health like virtua fighter, soul calibar, and dead or alive the bar health goes down to fast being that the attacks are powerfull that makes the game less as fun cause you play for like 1 minute then the computer is defeted or you are defeted thats to quick but this game was okay the story mode sucked and this is kinda the same as part4 so this was an okay game if you want to play it then rent it its not worth buying.

Hard as heck

This game is a blast to play against a human opponent. The graphics are beyond compare. It is, by far, the best realistic fighter to date. Unfortunately, the game is near impossible to master in the single player mode. If you want to unlock any of the extra characters or features, be prepared for hours upon hours of frustration and sore thumbs. I can't begin to count the number of times I've died trying to beat the game in story mode, even with the game difficulty set to "easy". On the "bright" side, I'm sure a few more years of solid play (forsaking all other video games) will allow me to beat the game in easy mode.

great game!

I own this game the graphics and the characters were so realalistic. I love these levels too that's the thing they make the levels alot interesting with the realistic backgrounds but I guess the only problem is that these levels were completely endless and your saying to yourself when will it end? But on the other hand I love these levels and the characters were pretty cool nina williams and yoshimitsu are one of my favorite fighters and im glad their not removed in this 5th game. Awesome game and if your into fighting games then this is for you.

Good as a 3D fighter.

I think this game is good as a 3D fighter, but I also think it's a little overrated. 3D fighters tend to get higher ratings than it's 2D counterparts in gaming magazines because they score higher on the graphics review just because it's 3D.

Compare Tekken 5's gameplay to Marvel vs capcom 2, Guilty Gear X2, and Capcom vs SNK 2 and it doesn't even match up to the likes of those time-less ps2 classics which are also all 2D fighters. trust me, you will get so much more replay value from those other fighters.

If you like 3D fighters pick this one up. I didn't enjoy the game much and have had it for a year and never felt inclined to return back to it again. I haev also played other 3D fighters with high ratings such as virtua fighter, dead or alive, or soul calibur and not a single one fo them brings up the fighter-spirit i get from GGX2, MVC2, or CVS2.

Is Tekken 5 Tekkenlicious?

I own all of the Tekken games, inlcuding Tekken Tag. I have to say that I was a little dissapointed with Tekken 4 for two reasons
1. You can not jump when the other character is down
2. There are so very few characters to play with

So I am very glad that Tekken 5 changed the mistakes it made in Tekken 4. You can jump when the other character is down again, and there are plenty of characters!

I think there were only like 19 characters in Tekken 4. But there were a great many 30 characters in Tekken 5! All your favorite characters are back, plus some new ones.

In this game, you have to fight Jinpachi at the last stage. Now, this is my only complaint about the game... Jinpachi can be so hard that it makes you want to rip your hair out. At least I felt like that a few times. So I wish it hade a Very Easy mode. That way little kids would be able to have fun and beat the game.

So overall, this is a great game that deserves to be recognized with the other great Tekken games. I even heard that Tekken is the undisputed best fighting game ever! I hope that is true. It's definitely true for me.

I give it 5 stars.

I've been playing Tekken since it's inception and Tekkend 5 most certainly delivers. The moves are intuitive, well developed and a step up from Tekken 4. Having all the old characters and some new ones definitely helps keep the game fun, especially when playing against friends.

Fun with Tekken 5

It's been a while since I last played a Tekken. I had a brief experience with Tekken Tag Team which was a lot of fun. But the last Tekken I'd played primarily was Tekken 3. Tekken 5 blows it completely out of the water, as one would expect. It's got the most amazing graphics, which comparing it to Tekken 1-3 (which comes included in the game) makes those characters look like mutants.

The new stages and music are absolutely stunning. A far cry from Tekken 3. Though Tekken Tag Team was fun since one could almost interact (kill) the spectators. The stages are uniquely amusing since one can travel to a lovely country side (by a church?), to a pool party, and beyond (space: the final frontier)!

I suppose my only main complaint would be that Xiaoyu looks too old to be acting the way she does (disturbing), and that Law looked completely different: unrecognizable until I looked at his Move List. That and the thumbnails for the characters were pretty tiny.

On a side note, it seemed that Tekken decided to include one of those overpowered bosses that takes off about 1/3+ HP with every hit in their Story Mode. Difficult, but fun once you get the hang of it.

Over all this game was a lot of fun with the inclusion of a few new characters, and new moves. The fighting is smooth and slick with the hope that the opponent does not spend his entire time crouching. Steve will always make me laugh since I tried to use him without looking at his list. Needless to say I was quite surprised to find out that he had absolutely no ability to kick whatsoever (I hadn't known he was a boxer at the time). Rather, he dodged in his Boxer style. He does have an amusing toe stomp ability though, a cheap way to take off quite a bit of HP quickly and cheaply.

Top notch from the Tekken franchise so far. Can't wait to see what they'll come out with next.
