![]() ![]() The wow factor of the Tekken franchise was waned over the years, and Tekken 4 wasn't quite the effort Namco Limited could have done, and I don't think Tekken 5 will totally revitalize the franchise, either. This demo was truly a "work in progress" (there's even a disclaimer on the title screen), but for what's presented, Tekken 5 looks to be a solid fighter. No options to change anything, no other characters to try out.nada. You only fight one round (Final Round), and once you beat the CPU or vice-versa, then the demo is over.back to title screen for you. What sucks is that the demo is really, really short. Blocking was done by holding back, and combos and assaults can be implemented on each arena's environments. Combo fighting harkens back to Tekken 3/Tag Tournament as there wasn't full 3-D rotational movement like Soul Calibur.you tap up and down on the pad to move inside and outside to evade attacks. The Square and Triangle buttons were punches, and the X and Circle buttons were kicks. ![]() I haven't played Tekken 3/Tag Tournament in the longest time, but the overall gameplay seemed kinda slow. Raven is your Dennis Rodman/Zack wannabe with power attacks Asuka is quick with acrobatic kicks. The voices spoken by both characters were still in Japanese, but there were English subtitles.īoth Raven and Asuka animate fluidly and well. Typical with Tekken games, receiving and dishing out attacks cause obligatory red and green burst flares. The floor on this stage was solid concrete with wire-type panels. The serpent mountain stage offered blue skies, with structures made of rock in the background. Both stages looked nice with good detail, and the rooftop stage gets a good nod with lens flares, shadowing, and orange hues cast upon the city and the fighters. The demo randomly selects from 2 stages.one stage with rock-faced serpent dragons atop mountains, and another stage on the rooftops of the city at dusk. ![]() It loads to a "stage" splash screen followed by the versus portraits of said characters. Pressing Start on Player 2 side you become Asuka. Pressing Start on Player 1 side you become Raven. I noticed that the disc itself was on a CD blue disc, so if you're PS2 isn't to keen on playing CD-based PS2 games, then you're outta luck.heh.Īnyway, upon loading it up it plays the intro. I had a chance to dabble with the playable demo of Tekken 5 that was bundled with Death by Degrees. ![]()
