Tekken |OT| of Tag Assaulting the Devil, Ogres, Wild Animals & MILFs (Bitcap Warning)

According to Rip it looks better, but not arcade perfect.
That's good. I didn't expect as good as arcade but prologue hurts my eyes unless I'm sitting too far away but it defeats the purpose of owning a bigger tv. I'd play it on a 16" boobtube if I wanted a smaller screen to hide the flaws.

Here is the exact quote:

A lot of people have been asking me about the graphics and I feel like its a step up from Tekken Hybrid. Jaggies aren’t nearly as apparent as they were on Hybrid. It wont be arcade perfect, but it looks pretty damn good. From the Tekken booth you could see the Dead or Alive 5 big screen and TTT2 was much more attractive. There were some frame rate drops on the new stages in certain areas, but I assume they just havent finished working on them yet.

Some more impression there as well: http://www.levelupyourgame.com/2012/06/08/e3-2012-tekken-tag-tournament-2-impressions-and-recap/

Any reports on how the game looks on PS3? Better than prologue I hope?

Here's another opinion from Kane:

alright well... i am here at MLG playing tt2 on all ps3s with normal sized gaming monitors and i must correct myself. ttt2 looks very very good... almost arcade perfect.

the tvs they were on at e3 looked very horrible... but they were probably 35 to 40 inch tvs or so.

I am pretty excited about console release afterall..

I'm still miffed about this whole pre-order crap. I hate going to Gamestop. And Amazon having only 2 of the 4 characters for pre-order bonuses. Mehhhhh. I may have to rely on some help with some code to getting the characters here from GAF.

I'm still surprised they havent announced a special edition for N.America. I mean whats the hold up? Tekken 6 got a special edition with a stick and Namco is pushing TTT2 waaaaay harder than they did T6 and yet only europe has a special edition.

If the US doesn't get a special edition of TTT2, that's a major missed opportunity. Fans have been waiting for TTT2 to hit consoles since Vanilla MvC3 was still revealing characters

why not use Gamestop's website if you don't mind preordering online?

Just shopping Gamestop irks me because of the last time I went there and how they treated me (this was probably about 2 years ago). If I have to, I will. I'll just find another location to pre order from.

I'm pretty sure we will get a special edition. Just doesn't make sense why they haven't announced it already. I was fully expecting them to show new characters and stages and reveal the SE for U.S. @ E3. But none of that happened. :/
I guess we'll get something at comic-con or EVO.
 
I'm more concerned with loading... Give me a quick loading Tekken even at the cost of graphics then I don't mind... Looking great though. Combot mode <3

The new menu looks pretty light weight and telling from videos it looks like you don't have to wait for the loading to finish before you can select anything, so that looks like one issue being nailed down.

The things left to get rid of are;
- Installing trophy set each time
- auto saving taking forever
- downloadable content check
- 1P or 2P side at the start of the game.

ugh.... WHY.

Anyways time for some hilarious brokenness, courtesy of Deep Theater!

On that topic, something I'd like to change:

Also... Customs available for both player 1 and player 2 in offline mode.

Even though it's too late, default 2P outfits for tournament play would have been nice :(

This game is so gonna be hype!
 
They should just get rid of "arcade battle" "vs. mode" etc. Do we really need that on the screen to remind us which mode we're playing?

Default 2P outfits would have been great and its a shame that something thats been in every Tekken until now is gone.

There's some stuff written in Japanese for certain character profiles on the Tekken-official website. If anyone can get it translated, that would be nice. Maybe it's story related since the endings will be CG heavy this time.
http://www.tekken-official.jp/tag2/chara/
There really isn't much of anything. The Tekken 6 characters have their Tekken 6 bios (except for the rejuvenated Heihachi), and the console characters only have really short descriptions without anything new (they don't address their ages or their absence from previous games, for example).

Ah, I was hoping there might be something. Thanks for the effort!

Like Erigu said there's not much. But hey If you check out the official Tekken facebook page you can find bios for the new characters in English.

Hmmm maybe the mode label should go above the timer? Just a thought. And actually I don't mind moving all the 2P costumes to customization, makes the character designs more succinct. Or maybe that's just bitterness from a DVJ main that never really got a 'real' 2P costume. :p

"Angel bellows out deep manly voice during intense combat"

Angel's a trap yo.

I like Ogre's bios.
Background: Brutal and ruthless, Native Americans legend says the Ogre was a weapon of war that creatures from outer space left on earth in an ancient time. It understands entire structures of all living and artificial beings, and absorbed them.

I got a feeling he'll be owning everything.


I don't fancy Angel being in this, waste of character slot.

Hope Violet is playable with his T4 moveset.

OOOH, Awesome.
Michelle's profile is hilarious.
Background: Michelle is a half Chinese, half Native American character from Arizona that prefers to hunt and track down animals, like her distant relatives did, and enjoys watching buffalo with Julia, her adopted daughter. Usually dressed in Native American style clothing complete with a suede vest and headband, Michelle has a pendant capable of awakening Ogre, an evil spirit that wants to destroy the earth. Ganryu, a sumo wrestler is smitten by Michelle but she finds him to be a pest, as does her daughter.

Kunimitsu: "She may not look it, but Kunimitsu is a villain to the core."

Finally, a female other than Anna who's actually a bad guy.

Just mainly going to suck for tournaments... when there will be mirror matches, having 2P outfits present is always better than having to look at a different color palate. Really really wish there's some kind of username/password thing to access your customs online at a tournament venue.

Hope Violet is playable with his T4 moveset.

That would be the Steve 5.0 levels of broken! 10 frame Acid Rain punisher that crumple falls? LOL, but I see what you mean... let's see what happens!

loves Arcade Sticks
I just got back to San Diego after playing 10 days worth of TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2. <3

Love that game. Can't wait for you guys to all try it when it comes out in Sept.

Right now I'm using Jaycee and Ogre. So fun!

Kunimitsu is so much fun too.
 
Regular Ogre? >.>

Markman, you're a cruel bastard you know that? <3

Ugh 3 months.... 3 long ass months.

Yo... that would definitely be boss.

Even though I find this song putrid, it's cool because it has FAB, Anakin, Justin, KOR, and MarkMan on it... the direct feed of the snoop dog song:

Who'd of thought we'd see FGC folk in a Snoop Dogg music vid. How far gaming has come.

Sidenote: I think I'll be picking up VF5R for PS3 this week some time. Played the demo. Too fun to pass up and for the complete package price of $30? Boss.

I had a pretty smooth game with Sayah about a week ago, and I live all the way out in Japan.

There are 2 things that I hope Tag 2 steals from VF5fs. One is the awesome netcode, the other is the detailed frame data info in the training mode. That shit has me SOOOO spoiled now and should be included in pretty much ALL fighting games going forward.

Who did you play against? How far were they from you?

I managed to play against devastator that lives more than 3000 miles from me. And I had legitimate games with him.

I tweeted to Micheal murray to at least include frame data counter in the fight lab mode.

THAT Nina/Anna shirt. Let me have it Harada.
I also like this art.

HELL YES I WOULD.
