Tekken 2 - One Big Stepping Stone   Shogun Gamer
Tekken 2 The Stepping Stone to its Epic Successor! Before Tekken 3, there was obviously Tekken 2, but how much of an impact did it have in comparison to the famous Tekken 3? It was pretty good, but of course, it was a stepping stone to a game that would have even a “Got Milk” commercial at its beck and call. The 3D fighting game also ported to the playstation featuring extra modes, arranged soundtracks for main characters and original soundtracks for the hidden characters. However, this is the arcade version everyone will be playing on Vizzed.com, and it runs at its highest speed even though it’s a 3D fighting game! (or at least for me it does and my graphics card isn’t that good, nor is my computer.) Some may find the game a little slow, but if this is slow, then don’t bother try Tekken 3 since that works slowly for me. The only thing I see is a flickering graphic on the characters, but other than that, Tekken 2 literally runs without any lag! Disclaimer: Before trying this game, please be sure to have a gamepad or arcade stick. Some moves require advance techniques and simultaneous button presses (which on some keyboards isn’t possible due to ghost keys). Depth 8 and Addictiveness 7: The tekken series is well known for its ability to allow the user to control each limb on their character and use juggle combos as forms of extending damage when given the opportunity. Tekken 2 being one of the earlier games still maintains these features as well as a good amount of characters to play as and master…though, some of the hidden characters are clones with different link combos and their own moves. Either way, the game actually leaves more to master and learn about each character and their interesting differences. Disregarding the clones, all characters will feel vastly different from each other, so it is very important to experiment with them all. For example, playing as Law or Baek may be much simpler for beginners as compared to playing as someone like Lei or Jun who require more commands to pull of their unique attacks and combos. Mastering characters is one thing, however, there is also the fighting engine itself to master. Some people actually hate the game for feeling too robotic, or in other words, complicated. This factor is actually one of the pluses of the game regardless. Chain combos, (moves that are linked together to create a string of attacks but don’t necessarily guarantee a combo that can’t be blocked) are a big part of Tekken and allow the players to create mix-ups to confuse their opponent if altering between high and low, or extend the amount of damage they do in one go. However, some moves, like 10-hit combos, take really precise button presses to pull off. All of this is creates Tekken making it diverse from games like Dead or Alive or Virtua Fighter which allow for simpler input. It really is worth trying regardless because in all games, you must learn how to play in order to get better. Since this is the Arcade version, you are only left with the option to play the arcade mode single player, or invite a friend over and duke it out against each other. The playstation version had multiple modes such as time trials, good old survival, training, and team battle. So without that, you are only left with just playing the game as is, which isn’t bad either considering how fun Tekken 2 is. There is one thing that does differ from the playstation version, and those are the possible combos you can pull off. With a little research I did, some combos can’t be pulled off in the PSX version of the game due to a few tweaks, so for those of you who are Tekken fans, you might as well do a little homework and see what cools juggle combos you can pull off, record it, and upload it to the vizzed page. Difficulty and Controls 7: Getting used to the games controls is already the first thing to talk about. The controls can feel very robotic and stiff because you literally control each limb on a character with the four buttons. You have left punch, right punch, left leg, and left kick. By pressing left punch and left kick, or right punch and right kick simultaneously, you can grab an opponent. With the commands, you can pull off various link combos such as a left right, or a two side kicks into a flip kick. You cannot button mash this game and always hope to pull off something amazing. Instead, its better to button mash slowly and find out what attacks might link into others. Not to mention, you must time your attacks if you happen to launch your opponent into the air and want to attack them afterword. This would be known as a juggle combo, which is a big part of Tekken’s gameplay. Attacking a launched opponent causes them to bounce back a little and allow for you to throw in more attacks if you can time the speed of your attacks with hitting their body. Soon before you know it, you’ll find yourself beating computers down like nothing before they have a chance. But of course, juggling comes with its difficulties and learning curves. The sped at which the launched opponent dropped can be a little fast at first until it becomes second hand nature to know what attacks are good to juggle with. Even I sometimes struggle to juggle the opponents because even the slightest delay in your attacks can make you miss a great opportunity all together. But this factor itself balances out the gameplay and increases the wow factor of juggling. One feature I must discuss, because it doesn’t appear in future Tekken games, is jumping. Pressing up, will make you jump high enough to soar over your opponent and behind them. This makes things a little tedious, especially when you don’t want it to happen since it leaves you open to getting attacked in the air or from behind if you jump over your opponents head. However, if you tap up, you will get a short hop that keeps you from jumping over your opponent and allows for a quick recovery if you ever have to jump over a character’s low attacks for any reason that you do. Though, most of the time if you do jump, it would probably happen because you are used to pulling off Law’s somersaults by pressing up and right kick (in this game, it’s both kicks together.) What I’m trying to get at is, jumping takes away from the game in a way almost because I find I hardly use it in Tekken 2 and stick more to blocking and crouching to avoid low attacks unless the opportunity arises that I can jump attack a person in their low attack to counter. Jumping almost gives a chance for the computer to whip your butt really, unless you are doing an attack with it to perhaps launch your opponent or do a specific attack. Perhaps I am wrong, but everyone time I jumped over my opponent, I got nailed with a combo or tackle. On the other hand, another thing to get used to in Tekken is your guarding and evasive options. New players who might have only played 2D fighting games for instance, wouldn’t know at first that you can neutral guard in the game. A neutral guard basically allows you to stand still and block mid and high attacks without pressing anything. If you move anywhere that’s not backwards, or attack, you will be unable to block on the other hand. This also applies to crouch guarding which is done by just pressing down. It can be something to get used to at first, but in the end, it is very rewarding. In Tekken, moves can be pulled off by holding backwards, and if you retaliate quickly after guarding, there is a good chance you will pull off that move rather than one you want. Other 3D fighting games might possibly have a guard button, so once again, Tekken might take some getting used to, but eventually, you’ll learn how to play the game. Evading, for those who have played Tekken 3 and up, does not exist in this Tekken 2. This isn’t a bad thing since at the time, it didn’t exist, but when I played the game after so long, I found myself jumping and crouching before realizing that the game has no evade function. Veterans may struggle a little at first, but this in no way makes the game bad, because if you can’ do it, your opponent can’t either. If you are new to Tekken or 3D arcade games entirely, I really suggest going into the service menu by pressing F2, going to the game settings, and changing the difficulty to easy or normal…because the default difficulty is hard. However, veterans will have the best time playing at normal or hard difficulty since as we know with most arcade games, it’s more difficult than the console ports sometimes. On the other hand, if you really want to learn fast and get into the game, keep the difficulty on the hard setting so you can adapt faster and learn from the computer to find your own mistakes on your path to becoming the “King of the Iron Fist Tournament!” (This works with other fighting games too.) The A.I. in Tekken 2 is balanced, or at least to me it seems that way. However, at times, I felt the computer knows exactly what moves I’m doing and counters them in the best of ways, but this adds to the fun part of the difficulty factor and keeps the player from becoming to confident of their skills. In a way, the computer seems to play a psychological game of keeping you cautious and hesitant with every move you make. Sometimes, the computer may even know what attack has more priority than another attacks (meaning the move is faster or always wins against a different attack.) This is part of adapting to Tekken on the other hand, so don’t quit entirely when things get difficult. If you need more time to practice, just start from the beginning until you are good enough. Graphics 8: The graphics in Tekken 2 are pretty good when comparing to a 3D game like Bloody Roar or Dead or Alive. Of course, this is more opinionated since some may say that Dead or Alive has better body modeling in terms of slim hands and etc, but Tekken has pretty good motions and mapping. The fight can go on and on, but let’s just say I only ever played the first Tekken game. The graphics have become better and the body shapes have improved. Not to mention, the mapping on the bodies and clothes are better and the stage designs are nice. It’s pretty hard to say it’s not good since it rivals against the first Dead or Alive. However, when compared to Virtua Fighter 2, then there is a huge difference. In this case, Virtua Fighter 2 has better everything in graphics over all. But once again, I’m using other games next to it to compare it. Unfortunately, I’m no professional in 3D sprite design and this would be the first 3D game review I’ve ever done so being inexperienced might not be the best thing, but I can assure you, the graphics are indeed good coming from a new viewpoint of 2D. The movements are all fluid at full speed and comparing to the first Tekken, it is a huge upgrade. The body and clothes details are well done along with the shapes that differentiate the characters. Roger and Alex would be a prime example since they are a kangaroo and Raptor. They have an exquisite design and one could at least say, their body modeling is fine. That’s about all there is to say honestly, I’m afraid I can’t go too in depth with this part of the review. Sound 9: Ok, the music in this game is my childhood. Not the arcade version, but the playstation version. But the arcade version is just as good in its own ways being the original unremixed versions of the songs featured in the PSX. However, at least the arcade music was accessible in the PSX. Now, that aside, the Arcade music is a little short when compared to the PSX version, but that’s ok, because battles in the game don’t take that long. You might not even hear the song loop once! So shortness of song won’t be a factor that affects the score rating in anyway. Creativity of each song, is one factor I take into heart, not to mention, the instrumental sound system used within the game to create the songs, and music matching the backgrounds and characters. Now that we have established the rules of the review field I’m most keen on, let’s get started. To start of…THE MUSIC IS GREAT! Back in the days, video game developers really appreciated music and made it the most memorable thing of our childhood! Just take a minute to process that information, and recall a game, and then the music…like Mario! The Mario Bros theme is known by all pretty much whenever you think of Mario. The music in Tekken 2 has that effect on me, and plenty others I know, (and a mass of youtubers who comment about similar topics under Tekken 2 music.) The music in this game is highly creative and most of the songs all sound very cool. As I listen to the music as I type, the one most apparent factor in all almost all the songs is the thick, strong, instrumental bass or sometimes the overall sound of the song. Almost everything sounds a little big in my ears, but it’s a good big. The songs are there to make you feel the stage and character. Some songs make you bob your head, some make you dance, some sound epic and give you Goosebumps, others make you nod and say, “Oh yeah, I remember that song.” The songs have very powerful melodies, meaning not only are do they give you a feeling and memory of it, but the melody is the first thing to be heard over everything. Like Mario’s tune, hardly anyone thinks of the bass or other parts of the song, and only remember the melody. That is a powerful melody. However, the bass is also strong in the songs that it’s almost hard to miss if you somehow drew your attention away (or maybe I’m just crazy.) I’d say if Tekken fans weren’t only interested in gameplay, music would sound as great as this or the PSX version in future Tekken games (of course, with real instruments and etc instead of midi.) I could talk to you all day about Tekken Music but then this would be a music review rather than a whole review. In short, Tekken 2’s music is probably the second or third greatest thing about the game. There is a long lasting appeal to each theme, and it made stepping stones to the Playstation 1 port with amazing arranged themes. (the arcade is more straight to the point where the arrangements are epicisized and longer.) The only theme that annoys me a little is the mid-boss theme, the beginning of it only though, not that that’s bad, it’s actually really good. The mid-boss tends to be hard, and hearing the beginning of the theme makes me dread when I have to fight them. (in the psx version, I think if you didn’t beat the hidden mid-boss character, you didn’t unlock him or her.) The voice acting in sounds in the game are pretty cool. You’ll only hear the characters grunting, but the grunts are pretty good. Take for instance, Lei Wulong’s voice. He sounds just as he looks and that to me is pretty awesome. Accurately describing a character with the right kind of voice. Not to mention, the fighting sound effects are memorable for me. I can never get the puffy hit effect out of my head. With certain kicks, you’ll literally hear a puffy hit sound, it’s unique. When K.O.-ing a character, there is an echo effect if I recall correctly and it makes defeat or victory feel GREAT! Overall: This game deserves an excellent 9 out of 10. I can’t give it a 10 out of 10 because I’ve already played Tekken 3 which is a huge step up from Tekken 2. I can’t even give it a 9.1-5 because of a certain game which I shall abbreviate, VF2 for exceeding on graphics and simpler gameplay. However, Tekken 2 is a great game nevertheless and is a must play for those on Vizzed.com who want to try a 3D Fighting game. Compared to others I’ve tried, this is the fastest running 3D fighter I’ve played that experience absolutely no lag in comparison with Tekken 3 and Soul Edge and Soul Calibur. Though some may experience a little lag depending on their computer or graphics card (not sure which it relies on honestly.) it is a must play to those it does work out well for.

Tekken has taken me. (Back in time that is)   Mimerio
Today's review will be on another instalment of the Tekken franchise, this time it is on Tekken 2's Arcade Version B. This game, or should I say Tekken 2 is, my favourite instalment of the Tekken franchise. Before starting to officially review this game, I'd like to say that this review is purely my opinion and you may disagree / agree with it as such within appropriate reason. So don't go and tell me I suck. Okay? Okay. We dive right in with a cross chop to the face, just kidding. But we start off with the Graphics section, this section is what makes the game not only shine for me, but gives it vivid imagination and colour. Literally, please note that this game is rather old, I think 20 years old now, but my goodness does it make up for it. The colours used in the game are as vivid as any rainbow I have seen. Not only do the fighters marvel, but the character select screen and the backgrounds do wonders as well. The only reason I did not give it a 10 is because sometimes the game will freeze. Sound up next, is very very good; most characters have their own unique voices bar a couple of obvious ones, the Jacks or the Williams sisters. The sounds each character makes is interesting as well as complex. The noises made by the moves are also interesting albeit cringe-worthy as some moves you can hear bones cracking. Ick! Each character also has his or her own stage with music to accompany it, this is a very nice touch. Addictiveness-wise (For goodness sake... this word again!) is a solid 10 from me as it has a lot up its sleeve when it comes to gameplay. To elaborate further, the game has a host of 23 characters to choose from. Each one of the characters has his or her own move sets which you can execute to make into combos, throws and even knockouts. Story is a little hard to explain as each character has their own reasoning for joining the tournament, be it for vengeance, money or just to beat a long term rival, the characters will always have one or more reasons to brawl it out with one another, also it should be noted that each character has a Sub-Boss aside from Kazuya and Devil / Angel. Depth I had pretty much covered in the Story section, the ultimate goal of any of the characters is to beat their Sub-Boss then Kazuya, I do not know if this is true in the Arcade versions, but in the Playstation version, you are awarded a small movie clip featuring your character. Difficulty is always hard to rate, but due to this being on the PC compared to a Playstation controller (which is much easier to use) I have given it a rating of 7, plus the fact the difficulty is set to "Medium" by default. Overall, a wonderful piece of nostalgia and also a good entrance into the Tekken franchise.

Tekken 2 a pure classic   SuperCrash64
Alright time to do another game review this 1 is the squeal to the original tekken game. I've gotten through much of the series so far now I'm reviewing this game. So please enjoy the review of tekken 2. 1st off before you play you may want to make sure you have a game pad or something. Because game pads are mostly likely suited for this type of game. Plus some moves combos and grappling attacks all require mutil directional button presses at the same time. Now 1 that I found good so far  because playing tekken 2 it runs at a nearly perfect speed. If you played like the ps1 version or arcade version of the game. Which is a good thing considering this was a 3d fighting game(reason why is because most 3d fighters "aka" the mame/arcade ones seems to really lag a lot) (play tekken 3 on here and then go play this 1. You'll know what I'm talking about if you've done that)I've notice a little bit of slow down here and there in tekken 2,but regardless this game is probably gonna get as fast as it can be on this site. (note the game maybe really slow also depending on your Internet speed too) anyways moving on. Graphics: The early 3d polygon stage of the tekken series or in general 3d fighting games. Because this is what they would use back in the day. Really taking a look at the previous tekken 1 you could see how much of a improvement namco made of this squeal (like other fighting companies they would make squeals and improve things about it) (sprites:  in the original tekken game the sprites themselves were rather alright. Because to me they looked really squished and just badly pixelated polygon characters. They were ok for the time being in my opinion. As for tekken 2s style of sprites they are greatly improved as characters look much more naturally sized and less pixelated. All characters have a unique amount of style to it that always impressed me about the series.because of their different style and extra costumes.that makes the characters feel awesome and it separates each character from feeling,looking or being the same. Only thing that I didn't understand about the characters was namco not putting them in tekken 3, But they later putted them in tekken tag tournament which was basically almost the same game.anyways in other words great improvement of sprites when compared to the original tekken game) (animation good animation here. Each of the characters got different stances and they always seem to look cooler and greater in my opinion.as for tekken 2 it pretty much goes the same way from improving upon the original tekken game. The animation is great here and all characters have their neat blows. And winning stances in other words good animation as usual) (stages simple peaceful destructive and awesome stages here exactly what a tekken game should have. Many stages are peaceful such as Jun kazama's stage because it has simple grass looks like a farmers land and other stuff.The stages themselves are generally well done and look good for the time this was released.The stages themselves are rather 2d shaped into like a 3d fourm.sort of the main stuff you would see in 3d games at the time. anyways good stages) graphics rating 10 Sound. Each of the sound variety's is excellent and it flows just good enough that it works really really well with the characters .The grunts in the game are furious blast along with your classic ko sound effect.that always gets a good impression on me when I knock out someone.Each of the tekken sound variety's was always cool and had a great amount of variety as for tekken 2 it still pretty much rather even rivals the newer like tekken 6 in my opinion.Because that's just how much the game feels close enough in sound variety.you have your basic smash and blow sound effects it continues to be an epic variety for quite a long time and that's a good thing time)(soundtrack well composed even better then the arranged version in the ps1 version of tekken 2. Regardless the ps1 soundtrack was good but some theme's like yoshimistu have just gotten completely boring and not really fun to listen to. As for this original arcade version the soundtrack remains well deadly composed in a good way.although the Soundtracks in here feel as if they need a little more ump to the beat.(Marshall laws theme and the character select would be an example.As some of the beats feel a little too tiny in my opinion.Regardless still some pretty good stuff in this tekken 2 game). Sound rating 9 only flaw I've mentioned was the tiny beat parts in the soundtrack Addictiveness and the depth of tekken 2. The tekken franchise was mainly fun for pulling off combos controlling characters smoothly and the pure pleasure of the character screaming a giant grunt and the announcer with his famous ko sound effect that is epic. (tekken 2 has some less moves that you can pull off when compared to the newer games) regardless tekken 2 is a great game 1 that is worthy of being a great fighting game. Depth sadly all the arcade versions of tekken was in the playstation's versions of the game) the ps1 version of tekken 2 had more features like classic mode endings survival and other stuff etc. as in this arcade version theres just arcade mode to do. if you want to practice with certain characters.You will just have to master you're skills in arcade mode.Or press 2p and make player 2 your practice dummy. So that's another option. Anyways addictiveness rating 8. depth rating 6 Story: I guess all the tekken arcade games never had a storyline or character ending as. They included that stuff in the playstation versions. It's probably because this game was not really meant to be storyline based as it's meant to be really fun. Enjoyed well and just for the heck of you spending many quarters. Anyways I guess all the arcade versions of the tekken games really just wanted the players to have fun and not be too focused on A storyline. Like all other tekken games the ending just says you are the champion and it shows how much time you took to beat the entire game. As well show off your footage from replay at the end. 1 thing I liked was the ending theme because it took a new the theme and remixed it with the tekken 1 character select and fiji or beach theme. Story rating still blank here. Difficulty. Pretty easy once you get the hang of the tekken gameplay and other stuff etc.And the ai doesn't really provide me much challenge at all because of their cheap move sets.even people like devil was pretty easy for me to defeat. Difficulty rating 5 usual standards. The controls work just fine in this game. Overall tekken 2 is a classic great and fun game overall rating 9.6
