Possibly the best Tekken game ever! A must-have for all gamers!

User Rating: 10 | Tekken 5 PS2
Tekken 5 makes Tekken 4 look like trash! This is a game you don't wanna miss! It has excellent graphics,wonderful sound,kick-ass music,and everything you could ever want! Need I say more? To begin with,there are 3 new characters: Asuka Kazama who is Jin's cousin and fights almost exactly like Jun,Raven a total badass ninja who bears a strong resemblance to Wesly Snipes,and Feng Wei a Chinese kenpo fighter who can really kick butt. The game also features characters you haven't seen since Tag Tournament. Story Mode features lots of new things and the boss Jinpachi Mishima is a tough cookie even if you set the difficulty to Easy! So get ready to punch something or someone while facing him. Also most of the endings are hilarious! Try keeping a straight face while watching Law,Anna,or Asuka's ending and you'll probably fail. Arcade Mode features a new ranking system where you fight endlessly while getting level-ups. But the opponents get harder and harder so you might get frustrated. Of course there's Team Battle and Survival mode (can't forget those or I don't deserve to be a gamer)! There's a new mini-game called Devil Within where Jin finds more about his past (and possibly his missing mother.) The controls are different and the enemies aren't that tough. It kinda sucks a bit but you have to beat it in order to unlock Devil Jin (or play 200 matches in any mode). There's also Character Customization mode where you can customize characters to your liking! You can also buy new costumes for some characters! Also you can choose your player name which is what you use in Arcade Mode. Then there's Arcade History mode where you can play the arcade versions of Tekken,Tekken 2,and Tekken 3! That's like having 4 games in one! So if you want a taste of old-school Tekken,this is the mode for you! You can also choose options to make the games easier for you! Tekken and Tekken 2 are a bit tough to play but Tekken 3 is pretty easy to get used to. I love the opening movie! It's really amazing and the song Sparking! really gets me going! Last but not least,there's Theater mode where you can view the characters' prologues and epilogues,music from every stage or menu,and various E3 movies! Tekken 5 is an amazing game! Namco really outdid themselves this time! You MUST get this game! You won't regret it!
