Tekken Tag Tournament

The Good
(User has opted to leave this box blank.)

The Bad
This game is not fun because it lacks several things. First, it lacks any form of 8-way run, which is prevalent in the fighting games i like to play. Second, the A.I. has a ridiculously high skill level, and routinely executes moves as a tag team, which are quite hard to perform. Finally, the game was a basic "beat ten people to fight the boss, and you win." game.

The Bottom Line
This game is a relatively poor choice, if you are looking for a fighting game. games like Soul Calibur 2 and 3 and the Budokai series are much more enjoyable.

The Good
The Tekken franchise has went on for as long as I can remember. This one has all the unforgettable characters every one knows like Kazuya Mishima, Jin Kazama, Hwoarang, and so many more. The game has many modes plus the secret one,Tekken Bowl(which is so hillarious when you mess up! ^^)You can unlock up to 34 characters!! The graphics are so advanced from the old blockhead days, with special intros like if you put Kazuya and Devil together ( supa cool! ). Special Tag Combos with every kind of relations of characters.Say put Jin and Jun together. Jin completes a Stonehead while if the tag button is pressed Jun will come out and preform a Reverse Arm Bar. This game should be played by any Tekken fan.

The Bad
What's there to say? Why isn't Doc. Boskonovich on there?!??!?! Did he die? No! You can see him at Mishima Lane (Tekken Bowl ><)!! Well I've just to say this.Who Cares? He an Old Geezer!

The Bottom Line
As I mentioned above, this should be played by any Tekken Fan. Even though Mr. Old Geezer CAN'T BE PLAYED!!

The Good
'Tekken TAG Tournament' serves as a compilation of the previous three entries in the series. Nearly every character (with the exclusion of one or two) is featured in this game, along with all of their alternate costumes and unique command lists. We're also introduced to a new character in the series, Unknown, who's background is very mysterious and elusive. For an arcade game that came out in 1999, the graphics look more than decent for it's time. The combat flows fast and smooth, model textures are smooth for the most part, and the soundtrack offers an array of lush electronic compositions. 'Tekken TAG Tournament' also offers several other game modes including survival, bowling (which offers funny, cute gameplay), team battles with up to eight fighters, one-on-one matches, and a lovely gallery feature. Environments look very unique and are reminiscent of past levels from previous Tekken entries. This title, however, doesn't progress the storyline of the Tekken series. I was going to put this in the 'Bad' section, but as this game is a compilation, it'd seem a bit unfair to penalize this aspect.

The Bad
I really don't have many negative things to say about 'Tekken TAG.' Really the only minor problem I had was that the practice mode offers combo training, yet the button combination doesn't appear on screen, meaning you'll have to keep checking the command list and memorize it until you get it right. That's about it.

The Bottom Line
This is a wonderful Tekken title, and all I can say is that fans of the series or just plain fighting games will most likely enjoy 'Tekken TAG Tournament.' Dozens of unique characters, a great soundtrack, an enhanced fighting system, and it's variety of gameplay warrants this title at least a quick checkout.
