Well saidAlso, I don't think Bruce is ugly or boring in his conception. I do think that the Tekken team is terrible at writing anything remotely compelling for him to do. I think that's part of "not understanding black people enough", so rather than trying to tackle the problem head on, they just left him under-cooked, underutilized, and did the bare minimum to keep him loosely relevant to whatever game he was in.
I'd have preferred that they took the time to develop something interesting for him to do and find a way to connect him to other characters rather than just replace him. He and Lei are supposed to have been former partners according to Tekken 2, but they have absolutely zero interactions. Instead he's just Kazuya's grunt in Tekken 6 for no better reason than "that's what he was doing in Tekken 2". Hell, in Tekken 5 one of his interludes is with Steve just because their fighting styles both use the word "boxing" and they couldn't come up with anything better.
Anakin playing Nina I hope
AyyNope

So. That's the new final boss of Tekken 7.
Dragon Uppercut.
I haven't been keeping up with anything. Did tracks get remixed/changed from vanilla to FR? I'm now worrying about my soundtrack completionist ocd. I'm assuming a special edition with a soundtrack will be a thing, but all versions of all songs? What about the stages in the console release?
For which? OST changing, ost containing all tracks or game containing all stages?On TZ somebody said so so...I guess. I haven't heard anything personally.

Wow, thanks for the info.When I asked on TZ I asked if some tracks were remixed and arranged like previous Tekken games and they said yeah some have been. An example they used was the Mishima Dojo stage. The song in the FR Rage Attack trailer in a little different than the one in the original T7. So, either they're going to give stages 2 different themes or just replace previous ones, who knows.
We also know that composer Yuu Miyake said on Twitter he's going to provide music for FR and Miyake hasn't provided much soundtracks after T4; a few soundtracks for T5 and the soundtrack of the Moai Excavation stage in TTT2. Also Lars has his own theme for T7FR as well so we know new music is coming but yeah it's changing in the actual game it seems.
I'm really hope they go with arranged music like in T3 or they go with different stages having different but similar themes like T5/DR.
I kind of stopped playing Tekken after Tekken 6 on 360 because of my jump over to strictly PC gaming, but I found this in my moving boxes today and got me all hyped again for Tekken 7
I have Tekken 5 DR on PSP and I'll probably pick up Tekken 6 and Tekken Hybrid for PS3 to just have.

For me that is just an excuse, expecially when they have already a really cool black character in Eddy Gordo. He is also one of the few character that was saved from Tekken 6's overall terrible writing.Also, I don't think Bruce is ugly or boring in his conception.

Honestly, I only prefer Josie over Bruce because she is filipina. That's all I ever wanted from Tekken and I got it. And she is hard kicking which is just a plus! Though I had preferred that she weren't just a replacement for Bruce, but that she had actually gotten her own fighting style.
I don't get it. She does seem as much as a Filipina to me as Leo is German. It's like they put a label on her saying "Now you're Filipina".
That crying before and after a match is more than annoying. Maybe I just don't get it, but I don't look at Shaheen and think "Finally a Arab character!". Well, he does look a bit too much like Aladdin
Maybe it's just because the whole idea of nationalism is so strange to me.
This is what ruined Paul's storyline without a doubt. He went from being a badass and the only person who could hold his own against Kazuya Mishima, to a goofball issuing out challenges to aliens in outer space. Not to mention the Kuma vortex he was stuck in for like 3-4 games.Like, what the hell man?
With each new installment I hoped we'd be able to return to Paul's T2 story, but it seems as if that ship has sailed in the devs eyes.
If you're not a Mishima/Kazama, you're doing comedy hour.
Bruce like every other character that isn't mishima got minimized in the story. It's a really shitty. Bruce actually trained the fucking Tekken Force. I really liked in Tekken 5 how Bruce meets Kaz and they talk about old times. There should me more about that not some stupid ass comedy.
Tekken Team needs to realise players want equal justice and attention to all characters in terms of story and character background.
They literally started few story arcs and left them going nowhere. But they expand Mishima story to a whole universum of another game. Lulz, just big lulz.
Haven't been here for a while. Didn't even respond to GrayFox's GGs 4 pages back.

That was hype! Finally watching the game knowing that we'll get our hands on it soon is really cool!
A question: if I download the PSN version of Dark Ressurection for 9.99, do I have to spend only 10 more for the Online version (which has a bunch more modes in it) or I have to buy it at 19.99?
Tekken 5 Paul was still bearable and funny in his goofiness as he was crazy strong and confident about himself. The only thing that really disappointed me was that the dream re-match with Kazuya never occured when it was hyped in his prologue and it's his main motivation in getting back in shape after T4.
Than Tekken 6 happens and he becomes a fuckin' CHEATER in order to win money!

We went from this to this. T-T
Guys what's the TekkenGAF discord invite link again?
Sorry if it's been asked already but have Namco said anything about Tekken Tunes in Tekken 7 yet? Was a neat feature in Tag 2.
Hold on just a moment, Josie isn't just a cute girl! She's a cute girl who cries like a small child that didn't get the ice cream they wanted when she wins.
L... like me please?
I don't think so.
I hope it's back, I've listened to T7 tracks 1000 times watching all the matches, way more then a sane mind could stand. If there's no Tekken Tunes it's mute time.

Part of the idiocy of the PS4 not being able to store it's own music. The best you can do is use the USB music player or Spotify, but that requires a lot more manual work. Sucks.
Guys seriously, what Tekken competition will you get on PC. Want to be paper kings in realm where players take their first baby tekken steps?
