GREATEST FIGHTING GAME EVER
unmatched depth in gameplay. Probably take 10 years to master all the layers of depth within just tekken 3. Button mashing aint gonna get you far on this one. The fighting system isnt based on over the top infinities, shooting fireballs, or over powered moves. Yet it is still so fun.
i like tekken tag more than tekken 4.
Hopefully tekken 5 will rock.

A 3-D fighting game developed by NAMCO, the people who brought you Pac Man and Soul Calibur. The controls are right kick, left kick, right punch, and left punch (press nothing to block;it's weird but makes some people's lives easier). It is one of the top fighting games (it's been repeated hundreds of times, but no one really pays attention) out there, but the people who say Tekken's gay are just jealous lil otaku since their ecchi game Dead or Alive is in the bottom pit with other crappy fighting games or the fact the person sucked at playing it.
Over the years, Tekken developed from just another 3-D game into a fun, original fighting game. If a fighting piece of wood or a usable character that shoots lasers isn't original, then what is?
Don't worry, the plot of Tekken isn't really that complicated. It's just a big tournament called King of the Iron Fist made by the Mishimas, that brings the top fighters together to earn the title of the best fighter or win the Tekken Zaibatsu.
There's a varitey of characters to choose from, which makes this game fun and entertaining. The Tekken fandom might not be as big, but many people have enjoyed playing it.
If you never played a 3-D fighting game before, I recommend you to try this game out. It's a game the whole family can enjoy! :)
I wanna play Tekken 5 again!

Dude, you play Tekken also?

Tekken's tite! You gotta try it out!

Hey, who's your favorite Tekken character?

FIRST AND FOREMOST, TEKKEN IS NEVER A CLONE OF OTHER SERIES!!

Only wapanese otakus who own Virtua Fighter and Dead or Alive are just jealous that Tekken is more popular than the 2 mentioned games.

More specifically Tekken 5: DR is One of THE greatest fighting games ever! Not as technical and complex as Virtua Fighter so a broader audience can pick it up easily, however the difference between 'noob' and 'pro' players are crystal clear. Also a well balanced roster of characters even though there are tiers theoretically any character can beat any other character. The gameplay is awesome and the animation feels alot more fluid than alot of other fighting games. Character designs are wicked and the english voice actors don't sound too bad at all. The fighting system is integrated wonderfully with all the technical sides of a fighting game, (whiff punishing, spacing, etc.) Also the fact that it reaches such a broad audience means you get to play lots of noobies at the arcades :D
Tekken Player: "Did you see that?! I just did a 8 hit air combo!"
Observer: "That's not realistic..."
Tekken Player: "STFU!"

The deepest fighting game ever made. Disliked by dumbasses because of this. These dumbasses also think the combo system is cheap because they don't know the difference between a 10-hit string and a real combo.
If you lose to a button-masher in tekken, it's because you suck at the game.

To get one's ass kicked by any means of grappling or martial arts.
Matt was talking shit and then Dave Tekkened his ass.
