    The ONLY question you should ask yourself before buying this game is:

    Are you good in fighting games...good enough to handle the steep learning curve that Tekken T.T. 2 moves have to offer? If your answer happens to be a "yes" then be prepared, because this is no walk in the park. This game will consume most of your time making you either be really good at it or have you quit out    The ONLY question you should ask yourself before buying this game is:

If your answer happens to be a "yes" then be prepared, because this is no walk in the park. This game will consume most of your time making you either be really good at it or have you quit out of frustration and never look back.

    Tekken T.T 2 is certainly NOT FOR THE CASUAL GAMER that might want to pick it up and have fun right out the package alas the Dead or Alive series. It's obvious that the developers made this with the intention of making you understand fully how the mechanics of the game really work...but at the expense of having the curious/amateur gamer run away from it. IN REALITY WE HAVE GIRLFRIENDS / BOYFRIENDS, FAMILY MEMBERS THAT ARE NOT GOOD AT ALL IN FIGHTING GAMES THAT WOULD LIKE TO TRY IT FOR FUN AND GET THE MECHANICS DOWN IN QUICK AND FUN MANNER....UNFORTUNATELY, TEKKEN T.T.2 IS NOT FOR THEM...and that's why It's very hard for me to give this new entry a higher score just because of that...

    Part of me is glad to see the developers stuck to the technicalities of what Tekken is suppose to be...BUT then it also makes me realize that games like this one narrows everything down to a small number of people that are already good at the game (or to the true persistent) NOT GIVING MUCH OF A CHANCE TO THE CASUAL GAMER TO FALL IN LOVE WITH IT. Assuming you're great at Tekken or fighting games in general, then this game is your dream come true, it's full of options to customize your character, plenty of characters to choose from and good graphics, but then how much fun is to play a fighting game on your own if you can't play it with just anyone...unless you fake it and let them win every time they smash the buttons trying to pull off any of the unfriendly combos system.

    Quand est-ce que les Japonais sauront faire des menus corrects et présenter l'ensemble de manière appropriée et agréable ? oui je sais ! quand les poules auront des dents ! c'est toujours aussi pourri d'épisode en épisode et en ce qui concerne le jeu proprement dit, on se fait rapidement la même remarque mais avec une nuance d'importance : j'ai l'impression que c'est pire à chaque nouvelleQuand est-ce que les Japonais sauront faire des menus corrects et présenter l'ensemble de manière appropriée et agréable ? oui je sais ! quand les poules auront des dents ! c'est toujours aussi pourri d'épisode en épisode et en ce qui concerne le jeu proprement dit, on se fait rapidement la même remarque mais avec une nuance d'importance : j'ai l'impression que c'est pire à chaque nouvelle itération.

    En outre, le Tekken n'est pas bon pour la manette, c'est en effet l'exposer non seulement à une usure accélérée mais aussi à une mort prématurée ; c'est également s'exposer à une foulure des pouces alors qu'on tente de sortir les "combos" et de ne pas finir épileptique devant toutes ces couleurs criardes, ces éclairs et ces flashs permanents.

    Et puis qu'on ne se méprenne pas, les jeux de baston rendent con et irritable, ils sont tout le contraire de ce qu'un "jeu" est censé proposer : de l'amusement... euh du "feune" pardon, parce que si c'est pas feune tu vois, ça soûle direct. Cash. Alors j'ai fait un rage quitte et j'ai mis 1 ; ça va mieux maintenant, surtout depuis que la galette "t'es qen" a volé à travers la pièce et calé mon bureau qui en avait bien besoin : Tekhaine, tu sers enfin à quelque chose.    … Expand

    With enough variation of modes to opt for, including the new story-type mode Fight Lab (which is rather short, although it will help gamers learn the game's moves), Tekken Tag Tournament 2 has enough fighting gameplay for single-player and same-console multiplayer entertainment, especially with the strong controls and impressive visuals. However, the utter dismalness of Xbox Live (lack of) gameplay delivers a double-fisted punch to the face of Tekken Tag Tournament 2's quality.

    Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is often cheap and barebones. However, it's also one of the most comprehensive fighting games I've ever played. With 59 characters and thousands of moves, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 has been specifically designed with fans in mind. Newcomers will also enjoy the large roster and cinematic endings, but may find the online multiplayer unwelcoming!

    Even when this one is more the first Tekken Tag spin-off than anything else you will enjoy it because of its flawless fight system and "eternal" playability. [Oct 2012]
