This is the best song and the best stage in the whole game. I'm sorry but I can't get enough of this song. I'm loving how Namco is bringing back the sick beats.

Silly gamers, you call it "Triple T2"
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is just too big of a mouthful.:mr_t::lolz::D
Here are some new stages that I haven't seen before in any of the other videos.
This one reminds me of the Training Stage in Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution.

This is a weird ass stage. Everything is purple. Maybe this is some kind of Devil Kazuya stage or something.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ae7oZ6xj9c&feature=related
This stage is just kinda ho hum. But the more stages the better IMO.

EDIT:
I've seen this stage a couple of times before and I think it's Jun Kazama's stage. It's got very relaxing music. So fitting for Jun.

The stage in the second vid I think is used when you fight Unknown.
Sorry Spin, but that beat does nothing for me.Quote:

Tekken Tag was the last game with character stages. Not every character had a stage though. Oh and There is no way in hell that 6's soundtrack is better than Tag 2. Tag 2 has remixed classic stage music. It's a win by default.Quote:

I don't even know what else to say.Quote:
Looking forward to Tekken Tag Tournament 2? Of course you are, as are we, but now we are looking forward to it even more since we’ve discovered that 24, Lost Boys and a Time to Kill actor Kiefer Sutherland is the new voice of Heihachi Mishima.
Strangely enough Tekken Tag Tournament 2 will have two actors voicing Heihachi, Kevin Michael Richardson is listed as the voice of Heihachi in the U.S release of TTT2, with Kiefer assuming the role in the European version of the game. It is not yet known why the same game will have two seperate voice actors in both regions.
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is expected next year on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. PS3 owners can get their first taste of TTT2 with the Prologue version that will be bundled with Tekken Hybrid later this month.
As long as I can use the Japanese voice acting I don't really care.
Jack freaking Bauer as Heihachi? No, I don't see it either.
Here is a link to the Tekken Tag OST. Just in case you didn't know, they brought back the old composers from the first Tekken Tag. It features some older remixed tracks from past Tekkens as well as new tracks. They have some great songs with a few "wtf" songs as well but overall it's a very unique oldschool meets newschool soundtrack.
you'll have to register to get it though.

Namco/Bandai has the game on Location Test at a couple of arcades here in the states. I heard they cracked down on Arcade UFO for streaming the game on their Twitch TV account. Seems kinda stupid when Japanese gamers have been sharing match videos since the game came out there.
Also, it's coming out to consoles next year? I thought the arcade version was pretty much complete. I guess their just collecting data for it.
That was done pretty well. Now why can't a movie be made like that? How fucking hard can it be?Quote:

I don't own hybrid, but I have heard that the ps3 demo of TTT2 looks horrible compared to the arcade version, and runs at a lower res. I am glad that I did not buy hybrid. You get a crappy movie, a HD remaster with input lags(according to tekken zaibatsu), and no online play, and a shitty looking demo. You have to install the TTT HD as well as the demo of TTT2. It makes you wonder why isn't this a PSN release.
I'm just irked that Namco is taking so long on the Tekken Tag 2 home port and is instead shoving Soulcalibur V down our throats instead.Quote:

I'm still getting TTT2.
You know what, I didn't even notice that. As much as I hate lolis it somehow missed me. I guess both of those movies were so horrible that lwatching olis beating up my favorite characters was better. Damn.Quote:

We just can't win for nothing. SNK starts to drop the lolis and Namco picks them up. I thought Namco would be the last company to do such a thing. Lili was pushing it and then they come out with Alisa. When will it ever end? Just imagine what's in store for us in Tekken 7? It's gonna look like BlazBlue and Arcana Heart put together I bet.Quote:

NAMCO WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR GODDAMNED PROBLEM? This is the last straw. First Capcom let me down and now Namco does it too. I'm done with this series, I'm just done, I've seriously had it with this shit.
They've basically taken everything that pissed everyone off about Tekken 6BR and then multiplied it, so the series regressed back to 6.0(arcade version of 6 for those who don't know).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCWvq-C2yG4&list=UUKJtYrlWaF3G0LIneEKoPew&index=1&featur e=plcp
After this bullshit I don't even consider Tekken to be Virtua Fighter's rival anymore because the standing mind games mean almost nothing anymore. Hell, Virtua Fighter is barely Virtua Fighter anymore, the juggle damage on that game is about Tekken level too. What the hell is wrong with game series these days?
EDIT: for those who don't know this is that unblockable setup that Aris mentioned in the review that Namco still has yet to patch:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ygYEcchhkpw
I just watched that last video, and yes... that is retarded. Oh well. Wish someone would just come out with an all new game and start over. Look at the numbers of these games we are playing! My god.
My prediction is Namco will release a Tekken game based on the Tekken 4 system after this eventually flops.
The complaints are likely to be higher, but Tekken 4 as I mentioned in the past was a step in the right direction.
The series needs a reboot ... enough with this juggle crap and wall carries and shit!
Agree with Aris and all of you guys! Tekken 5 DR was the best Tekken so far

So since it's a big enough update to where it's basically a new game I'm wondering if they changed the system of the game to where juggles aren't the total complete and entire focus of the whole damn game.Quote:
Namco Bandai will be showing off a new version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 at the AOU 2012 arcade show next week. This new version is apparently big enough that they're tentatively calling it "New Tekken Tag Tournament 2."
According to Namco Bandai's lineup briefing, the New Tekken Tag Tournament 2 will be greatly evolved with new elements. We'll have to wait for specifics.
Other Namco Bandai AOU games include:
Dark Escape 3D: a 3D horror gun shooting game that's due for release in July.
Big Bang Smash: an air hockey game
Fishing Spirits: a medal game themed around fishing
Pokemon Medal World: This medal game based off Pokemon is already available
Gundam Extreme Versus Full Boost: The Extreme Versus update is due for arcade release in April. Namco Bandai will hold a stage event with the latest info.
Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 4: This latest Wangan Midnight game is already available. Attendees will be able to take part in a tournament
AOU will be held on the 17th and 18th at the Makuhari Messe convention center. The 17th is invite and press only. The 19th is open to the public.
Next week can't come soon enough, and this better be good too dammit.
So that explains the wait for the home ports, then...
The home port actually is gonna come out pretty darn quick in comparison to all other releases of fighting games I've seen(except for MvC3). It's pretty shocking that there is even an update of this magnitude at all due to the close console release.
Home port will suck baaaaaaad! In terms of gameplay it might be the same but in terms of graphics it will be jaggies everywhere.
There is quite a difference if you compare Tekken 6 BR arcade cabinet to Tekken 6 PS3/360 port. So imagine the difference now that the graphics are toped up ever more
yeah I imagine it's gonna suck. I heard that the PS3 could have done a 100% perfect port but they matched it with the Xbox360 as not to overshadow it.
And you believed that?Quote:

Some games were just better on one system or the other, and that's that. To say that they dumbed down the PS3 one just sounds fake to me. But, if they based it to work on the 360, I suppose I understand that it may not be for the PS3's best interest (not just a power thing, but the way it has to be programmed to take full advantage of a system).
long story short: I say if they can make a better version for PS3, it's bull that they don't.
From what I understand, T6 was ported from arcade to 360 then from 360 to PS3. This was to ensure the 360 version looked as good as the PS3 version. Which is completely retarded because the hardware running the arcade version is PS3 based.
This would be the only way I would ever consider playing Tekken again. I actually thought the juggling was completely out of control in 5, so the path the series has taken since then is so far removed from a rewarding experience for me that I can’t even watch anyone else play the latter games.Quote:

I always thought that tekken 5/DR were very close to tekken tag in terms of gameplay. Juggles have always been part of the series. Tekken tag 1 also had some long ass juggles. Tekken 4 focused on ground game, but it did not sit well for many fans. The mishima's trademark WGF and EWGF were nerfed to hell, and it couldn't even launch without a counter hit. The stages looked nice and were big, but the elevation of some of the stages changed the gameplay for the worse, so it was scrapped in future games. The same could be said about VF3's stages with elevation. The mishimas in tekken 5 were better, but the WGF and EWGF are no longer a mid hitting move like in tekken tag.
The demo of tekken tag 2 is mediocre from what I've heard. It runs at a low res compared to the arcade version. It has tons of aliasing and low res textures. The release is still far away, so they better tweak that shit, or else it is going to look very dated when it gets released. The decade old Tekken tag(ps2) actually looks cleaner than that travesty of a demo.
If you're going to have a game with juggles then 5DR is probably where it was at. The game was really well balanced. 6 is pretty well balanced but it's a "one fuck-up and you're dead" kind of game now. Possibly the biggest upgrade the series got came in Tekken 5. 6 didn't really introduce anything revolutionary gameplay wise.Quote:

Actually the only thing I liked about 6 was that a universal low parry forced bound on your opponent. Hence a low attack could be punished with a mini-juggle and not a full juggle.
Not taking gameplay into consideration, I thought Tekken 4 was the only improvement for the series after Tekken 2, in terms of roster, story and overall settings. I liked the smaller roster that omitted characters with similar move sets, and how the story moved back to focus on Kazuya as a normal character instead of a devil (which was cool at the time, but grew old later).
Also, the whole Mashima Zaibatsu ruined the story for me, and the inclusion of the fags and lolies in Tekken 6 just made me loose all hope for it to recover again.
I've said this before, and I'll say it again, but I feel that Tekken 4 was my favorite one. Loved the over all presentation and package that game offered.
