Who here is a fan of tekken?

Well if you are, you'd know that in tekken 4 Namco decided to give the characters greater movement by allowing them to move up and down as well as left and right, many people complained about it and as a result Namco decided to edit this feature for tekken 5 to point of it being totally useless :(

I personally had no problems with the system in Tekken 4, did any of you guys?

Tekken 4 graphics were a bit lower than Tekken 5, but it's fine^^

waw!?, tekken 3, tekken tag tournament, also had moving side to side ?
if thats wat your point is?

cos the game would be like a 2d game, wouldnt be able to move to the sides,
also im a HUGE fan of the series of tekken, and tekken 4 has the lowest quility of fighting.. they made it harder to juggle and the air combos are more weak,
tekken 5 is the best and most fairest of all tekkens released so far

( well thats my opinion ^^ )

im a die hard fans of tekken. been playing it since tekken 2 ^^ won some local tekken 3 tournament back then. still playing tekken 5 til now ^^ also die hard fans of jin kazama. i really love Jin in tekken 4 because he is one of the top tier character. but sadly namco toned him down in tekken 5. he's no longer top tier...he's just a low tier character. but yet i still use him, beside feng and raven.

tekken is the sh*t of all fighting gameees XD

EDIT: Jin has no JF laser scraper no moreee ! arghh die you NAmco! :p bring back his JFLS ! btw i agree, juggels are hard to perform in tekken 4. luckily it doesnt happen in tekken 5. and JFes are easy too !

i kinda became more of a Tekken fan after playing Tekken 5. never played Tekken 4, but i did play Tekken 3.

No its not my point, in Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament you could only sidestep sideways you couldn't actually walk sideways, however in tekken 4 Namco made it so each character could walk sideways as well meaning characters had maynover ability, people complained about this so Namco edited the feature so that in Tekken 5 your characters could walk sideways but only after your character has preformed a sidestep in the direction you wanted your character to walk, I just wanted know who actually disliked this addition 'cause it didn't bother me to much

tekken 4 was the worst in the series. some launchers don't launch enemies 100% of the time with a direct hit (eg. kazuya's ewgf) and the terrible sidestep system. i'm glad they removed them in tekken 5

they didn't remove it they just changed it, I dunno I personally had more of a problem with the stages in it, especially the Parking lot stage it was so annoying how people could launch there opponent into the roof

Personally, I prefer Tekken 5 to Tekken 4, thanks to the number of playable characters and the graphics.
But since Tekken 3, the side-games like "Kazama 3rd person adventure" are getting worse. Tekken is a fighting game, I don't see the point to add side-games to make it "original"

well Tekken 5 is better than tekken 4 in almost every way, but one thing that really annoyed me about tekken 5 is the Devil Within mode, that was awful Tekken Force mode was so much better it suck's how they took that out -_-

totally agree with you about the devil within mode. But the tekken force wasn't that good for me (it won't replace a old 2d beat em all game I mean)

Ahhh Tekken my fav game on PS2
but Tekiken 4 is slower than Tekken 5 and Tekken 5 have Devil Within mode.

I have played tekken since tekken 1. They had side stepping in tekken2 with Kazuya(sp) kinda, he stepped forward then to the side. They took the side stepping model from Soul Calibur for Tekken 4 people complained about it. So they changed it back to double tapping up or down to move.

i liked the 360 movement i hade tekken 5 sitting there fore like ever.my fav. one is #3.

Quote by WasZanzSo they changed it back to double tapping up or down to move.


well Namco did change it back to double tapping up or down to move, but in Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament you could only side step you couldn't conyinue walking in that direction after you side step but in tekken 5 you could continue walking in that direction after you side stepped

and it was a little troublesome to crouch in T4 because of that

Quote by DanTheGreatand it was a little troublesome to crouch in T4 because of that


well that was the only mayjor problem I had with it, 'cause it made it hard for me to do my favorite move with bryan :angry:

and also, they made bryan's B+1 B,B+1! that sucked! good thing they returned it to B+1 in T5

Tekken 4 didn't take on Soul Calibur's movement system. Soul Calibur uses 8-way run. Tekken 4 just added a side walk, not an 8-way run system.

The problem with Tekken 4's side walk system was that you could buffer it after any move. Say for instance you hit your opponent with a 2 punch string (1,2) and they block it. While attacking your opponent you can hold up or down so you side walk as soon as you recover making it hard for your opponent to punish you, even if they are at the advantage.

The biggest problem with Tekken 4's movement was that they got rid of korean backdashing which is a way to back dash over and over without having to recover (b~b~db, b~db, b~db etc). Because of this, Nina was the only character who could control spacing with hayashida (qcb~u, qcb~u etc). This was very stupid.

Tekken 5 forces you to side step before side walking so you can no longer buffer into side walk. More importantly, they brought back korean backdashing.

Also, to crouch in Tekken 4 you hold downback instead of just down.

I play Tekken competitively (I live in Houston so I get to play against Crow, the current Tekken 5 champion) so if you have any questions I'll be more than happy to answer them as they boost my ego and make me feel like a man.

I like Tekken I played all the gams they are great.

I think Tekken is timeless. But I've never become a champion of it.

questions? what question could we possibly want to know? if we wanna know a move we can look in command list, if we wanna know how a character is unlocked we can look up GameFaqs.com and everyone has there own playing style so strategy's that work for you may not work for others

Juggles, advanced movement, what to do on wakeup, wall juggles, setups, just frame inputs. While you can't teach somebody their entire strategy, it never hurts to learn a few good tricks.

all of that is either explained in the instruction manual, can be learned by watching others play or is easy to learn with enough practice.
telling someone a few trick's would most likely leave them worse off in the long run.
