Tekken 4...rent it first.. by My 0.02$ 04/30/2003, 12:00pm PDT
I really enjoyed 1, 2, 3, and tag (despite the "jaggy" first-generation ps2 graphics....whatever), but 4 came up lacking for some reason. It's for fucking PS2, that has games on dvd format (sometimes), right? Big big storage format, right? So how come there's only like 20-ish characters instead of, I don't know, three times that amount?

The updated Tekken Force was neat, but still lacked a two player mode, and beating it didn't give you a new dude like Tekken 3 gave you Dr.B, Dr.B!!! Hell, they could have given you Dr Abel(?) or some Jin/Kazuya/Heihachi hybrid or whatever. Instead you get a rather dull EXTRA stage for all your efforts. Yoy.

The Fight Club style level was a nice touch.

The "swap positions" instead of "second throw" decision was fucking retarded. Most of your human opponents will be button mashy anyway so you're better off relying on the counter-moves instead. (Heihachi's electric leg grab for example).

Jack is sorely missed.

But it's still Tekken, and still has many good points, just try to pick it up for under 40$.
