I recommend for a quick and easy venture back into the realm of 3D, people download
Tekken Revolution on PSN, which is free. It has 'pay to play more' features but they can be ignored. The main reason I'd like people to try it, is that it is VERY 'new to tekken player' friendly. They have taken away a lot of advanced combo features (bounds), added in a handful of moves with critical hit/invincibility properties, an RPG leveling system with stats you can power up (power/endurance/vigor) and simplified a lot of general mindgames. The moves with new properties are listed next tot he character portrait on the selection screen, there is a training and arcade mode to hone your new found skills and you can play online vs others 5 times every 2.5 hrs ('tokens' regenerate every 30 mins to a max of 5). You can also pay to unlock additional characters or for more 'premium token packs'.
The online for it is good and it is a nice 'welcome back to tekken' game for players that haven't ever seriously played it or are returning from a long tekken hiatus.
Just putting it out there, i think it'd be interesting to see people learn it and watch them play on stream. I can refrain from playing unless called out
Haha, probably not. The first thing 2 of my friends told me was to get SF3 or SF4
.
Another one of my friends is pretty big on Tekken though, and generally would play any fighter except he hates SF4. I'm much more of a 2D fighter than a 3D fighter, but I did play a bit of Tekken 5, not a lot to really master it, but to get familiar with some combos and my character.
I'll probably get a fighter next month, since I just bought a PS3, if I buy a fighter I may never actually dive into any single player games like I did during the PS2 generation. I'm kinda excited to actually play fighters against other people, I wonder if the community has evolved as a whole.
I remember when I first played SF4 online at a friends house, people online really had no idea how to play fighters. Hoping several years of evolution has made the casual community stronger.
Is Tekken Tag 2 cheap? I'm probably not going to get a new fighter if it is expensive since there are so many cheap ones that I need to catch up on.
