Great news!!

I used to over-spend my money on Virtua Fighter when I worked in a bolwoing alley, then a friend got a Playstation imported from Japan months before it came to the UK, and Tekken was the game I saw and hooked me into it. :)

Tekken was great fun - Tekken 2 had great overall presentaiton (and music!) and let down only by polygonic graphics. Tekken 3 lost a lot to simply making sure it had 3-D backgrounds to best the last unconquered achievements of the Virtua Fighter franchise, and Tekken 4...well, it's fine but it still feels like it's missing something that 1&2 had.

Hopefully Tekken 5 will bring something fresh to the Tekken franchise while also retaining the favourite characters - I notice Jack seems to be back, which is refreshing. :)

Go Tekken. :D
 
Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection

Namco has announced it will release an upgraded edition of its popular Tekken 5 fighting game, which will be titled Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. The upgraded edition will feature two characters, as well as newly rendered stage backgrounds. It's expected that the game will also feature balance fixes. Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection will be shown at the upcoming Amusement Machine Show in Japan on September 1. The game will hit arcades in the country this winter.
 
I hate to be picky, but its technically "The King of Iron Fist Tournament"

Sad, I know:eek:
 
I'm a litle confused about Dark Ressurrection - is this a new game in its own right, or simply an upgraded version of Tekken 5??

In other words, should I hold off from buying Tekken 5? :)

It is an upgraded version of Tekken 5. It has new stages, new items and gameplay tweaks.
It also has two new playable characters:
- Lili, a female powerhouse with a wicked array of kicks
- Dragunov, a surly goth with devastating grapples.

I wouldn't buy Tekken 5, I would wait and get Dark Ressurrection but it comes down to you, it's your choice

Thankyou, but after the mini movie after you win in Tekken 3, I think a voice says right before the credits "King of the Iron Fist Tournament: Enter the Tekken", I might be wrong, thankyou for telling me anyway.

My favorite characters are:

1. King II
2. Heihachi Mishma
3. Julia Chang
4. Paul Phenoix
5. Jin Kazama

My less favorite characters are:

1. Ganryu
2. Eddie Gordo
3. Anna Williams
4. Craig Marduk
5. Lei Wulong
 
Favourite is Lee - hope to see him in Tekken 5. :)

Nina was always fun for kicks, and Yoshimitsu has sheer lovable charisma but sucks a little with his moves as he's far too slow and predictable. King has some great wrestling moves I used to love to use against people in player-to-player.
 
I would agree, Lee was always my character of choice. Expecially Tuxedo Lee:cool:

Then Heihachi, and in Tekken 4, Jin.

One of my geek friends had perfected Eddy. Knew almost all his moves. Very depressing, because no one could beat him. Button-bashing was our only defence;)
 
Tekken 5 has got tones of Tekken 1/2 players in the costums you use to play withlove. But now they look way cooler and more detailed.

My sister did that with Law but then she stopped playing. But she is the best controller of Law I've ever seen.
