"A good fighting game that is worth your quarters"

This is a really good game. I love the way the Tekkens have their characters' moves set out. Really nice, I'd say.

The characters are swift and the combos aren't extreme like in the Marvel vs. blah blah blah games. With a decent roster of characters, it takes extreme amounts of time and practice to become an expert at with any player. The combos, although hard to execute, are devastating when performed correctly. The normal moves aren't anything like throwing fireballs or doing any superhuman things; they're actually derived from real fighting arts from around the world. That is what personally makes this game so interesting to me...nobody has the same moves unless they are somehow related (such as family or mentor).

It was a cool idea to bring Tekken into a new 'tag team' version. I love tag team fighting games. It's a lot easier for me to fight well since I am able to utilize the ability to let a person rest and heal up and let your partner fight. I think that that could be an advantage to many people.

The Tekkens have always been great fighting games, with nice soundtracks and pretty good graphics, I hope that all the Tekkens that Namco releases will be this good.
