Can you explain why no fighting game has ever beaten Tekken 3...

Can you explain why no fighting game has ever beaten Tekken 3? I'm not saying Soul Calibur or the later Tekkens are bad but none of them have even come close to the greatness of 3.

What makes it so great?

Nostalgia goggles. You probably played it on easy back then and now you realize fighting games are harder and are more than just mashing a few buttons.

He thinks it's the greatest because it's the one he played when he was an impressionable teenager

5, 7 and arguably TTT2 are better actual games

Same reason no game ever beat Quake or SM64. Aliens came to us with video game technology in the mid-90's and all we've been doing since is making pale replicas.

Nostalgia is a disease

TTT and TTT2 are better.

Sfv and mvci shit all over the tekken series.

Best thing about the game was the CGI cutscenes and the music, it had bad roster and it introduced the most cancerous characters in the series

...

Eddie is only one character though

Bryan Fury, Hwoarang, Ling Xiaoyu, Eddy Gordo

Better in every way prove me wrong

Did they intend to replace Kazuya with Jin for the rest of the series?

Jin was essentially a palette swap of Kazyua in T3 and Tag but when they brought Kazuya back in T4 he got his own moveset.

>muh twitch views

>characters with simple and memorable combos are cancer

Fucking kill yourself, 99.9% of people just want to play and enjoy the game instead of spend their lives on them and study fucking hitboxes.

Lei's music was pure fucking KINO

But T5DR is the actual best Tekken game though.

Literally the only character in that bunch that isn't GOAT class is Eddy

Fucking hipster. I bet you're one of those people who pretends they used Jun.

it's tag

Tekken 3 had such a strong art direction, millions of people bought the game after just seeing the ads and the cover of the game, the game was also heavy on content and the visuals were very appealing

He's still basically the main character of the series, temporary sidelining in 6-7 aside

They already did technically
Since Kazuya turned out to be even more evil than Heihachi, they wanted someone to be the actual good guy lead

But then they made him an edgy antihero in 6 so they had to add ANOTHER Mishima to be an actual good guy (Lars) who remains probably the only Tekken protagonist who isn't a massive asshole at any point

Key word antihero, he might have gone edgy but he's still not a truly villainous asshole like Kaz turned out to be

At this point i wish they do a universe reset and pull a SF3 with a complete new cast, some people will probably commit suicide if it happened

Shut up and keep spamming your snake edge faggot

That was Tekken 3

But Harada and Yonemori fucking LOVE their antihero edgy characters.

If they did that it would probably flop like SF3 did too

How can Tekken have such good intros all games?
My favorite

Thing about games like this is that they were packed with content, great fighters, lots of play modes and amazing music. All there, ready. Nowadays a game like this would have had day one dlc, customisation packs, micro transactions, characters you had to pay for etc and the excuse is always that games cost more to develop. That’s bullshit and the development tech has grown with console tech, which we know is underpowered. There’s no excuse. It’s just greed and a way of being lazy whilst also making more money with no real investment in future instalments

d/b into punish :^)

Simple, you're a complete retard and Tekken has always been complete smash tier horse shit.

While it's actually not that close to the other Tekken games, it's more of a traditional 2d fighter, Pokken is the best one and is Harada's best work.

A shame the FGC will never give a shit about it due to the platform/IP it's tied to

>the excuse is always that games cost more to develop. That’s bullshit

You're dumb.

>stages haven't evolved ever since T4

explain this

In T7's snow stage the background move the same way it does in Tekken 1-3

This mainly, other Tekkens look nowhere near as cool to me.

Even today Tekken 3 is just rad as fuck to me.

Those endings were absolute shit, and that's saying a lot considering pre-rendered CG crap that came before it.

Tekken 5's Heihachi ending was when games became art, so it's superior

T4 stages were the best. The phone booth stage, the mall, the jungle, the airport, Honmaru, the fucking rooftop.

youtube.com/watch?v=MfLOypUb8PY

Wish they'd bring back those fun stages from Tekken 4, just less broken versions. Tekken 4 had so many bugs and exploits you could do that it's not even funny. Like those infinite wall combos.

If Tekken 3 is so great, how come there's no Tekken 3-2? Checkmate atheists.

nostalgia goggle faggot

Not really. What they NEED to do is give more reason for characters to be present in the Tekken universe. Very few characters actually interact with each other outside the main story (which is mostly the Mishimas, Lars, Alyssa, Lee, and Nina.) For some reason, everyone else is also attached to the Mishima's or the G Corporation. It's makes for a boring setup when everyone HAS to be related to the Mishima's in someway or another.

...

This was basically T3.5. Play 1v1 if you don't like tag.

>bryan
>simple combos

...what?

There's no gon

>call someone nerd and low iq

Strange enough, most of my friends have no problem with it being a Pokemon game, they just hate the Phase Shift mechanic. I feel the same way. I'd totally be down to play Tekken with Pokemon, but the switch between Ultimate Ninja Storm combat and Tekken is just too jarring.

That's fine though. The main story should only have the people relevant to it instead of shoehorning everyone in, arcade mode endings are there for everyone else

Not having those was probably T7's biggest fault other than the soundtrack

>For some reason, everyone else is also attached to the Mishima's or the G Corporation. It's makes for a boring setup when everyone HAS to be related to the Mishima's in someway or another.
The reason is a very simple one: They participated in the tournament for their own reasons. It's a fighting game, they don't need to make it any deeper. That doesn't mean that they can't make bad stories but I'd say they did a good enough job.

Does T7 not have endings for all characters? I liked that the old games showed "what if your chosen character won the tournament?"

I'M HEEERE NOOOOOOOOOOOOW
I'M DOOOOOING THE BEEEEEEEEST I CAAAAAAAAANNNN
>mfw seeing devil jin for the first time
the edgelord in me thought he was the greatest thing ever. I've been a DJ main ever since.

>The main story should only have the people relevant to it instead of shoehorning everyone in

I think you misunderstood me. I'm fine with the main story only focusing on a handful of people. The problem is that everyone else's motivations outside of that tiny circle are also tied to the Mishima's. Eddy, Bryan, Leo, Steve, Gigas, Shaheen, Miguel, Master Raven are all characters who have the Mishima's serve as their primary reason for action but they all accomplish nothing, not even in their own side-stories.

Read what I wrote above. Most characters reasons for entering the tournament is finding someone connected to the Mishima's. There's little to no room for characters to interact together this way. Even Street Fighter manages to separate characters better (Guile, Chun, and Cammy are the ones who fight Bison. Ryu, Ken, and Auma fight each other even though they all joined the same tournament.)

T7 has no traditional arcade endings at all

They're replaced by each character having a rival fight after which you get an ending, but they are all done in-engine instead of being videos so they're generally simplistic and samey. Super disappointing, there's maybe two memorable ones.

As a life long tekken fag i can tell you that the reason you think this is because you don’t actually play Tekken at all and are just normalfag nostalgia goggling. Anyone who unironically thinks T3 is better than the likes of T5:DRO need to fucking leave. You sound like a person saying why has no JRPG ever topped FFVII to people who actually play Tekken.

How are any of those cancer?

When Lars and Alisa exists? Or even fucking Lili.

Sup Forums is the worst board, you guys don't even play the fucking games.

>Lars
>Cancer

You take that back. He's /our guy/ and he needs buffs.

Imagine thinking playing fighting games is "studying hitboxes"

I'm 100% sure this poster is 18, and awful at everything they've ever done.

No, he doesn't. Try not starting Tekken at 7.

Lars is nobody's guy. He is like Bob, everyone played these two because they were overpowered as fuck. Enter T7 and both are garbage, hence nobody plays them anymore. There are no Bob and Lars mains, only faggots who pick top tier.

This one too brother

youtu.be/82uRNGeE_tk

Lars is my guy but I'll admit I've barely played him in T7 due to how trash he is nowadays. I don't even have a main anymore, my mains used to be Lars, Wang and Ganryu. Haven't even booted up the game for like 3 months now.

do you dress like a girl too?

nani?

hello guy from yakuza threads

Is Beach Volley Ball in any other Tekken game?

>tfw nobody plays dr online anymore

wish I got into tekken with that, it was pure footsiekino when I tried it out

2007-09 was the very best tekken online community thst ever existed.

better OST and announcer

After getting into T7 i tried T4 for the first time and i was really surprised by how good it looks, especially the hair movement, feels like it was really an ambitious game.

Tag Tournament 2

how so

>thinking Bryan and Hworang arent Eddy tier.
faggot those characters have the easiest juggle starters and you can spam like a retard to win. Bryan also has the strongest Swipe in the entire game.
Dont even try to say Hworang isnt eddy tier.
Only Xiaoyu isnt noob tier

Before Hworang there was Baek in T2

Very active, and it was the first ever one. A LOT of people played with headphones and communication was good. In the EU servers we knew each others names regulalrly

5 was the greatest of it's time
TTT2 was fun as hell
And 7 is fucking amazing
Love them all

who keeps making these threads?

I want to edge Bryan's snake if you know what I mean

>great graphics
>great music
>great art style
>fun to play

Tekken 3 was revolutionary, I remember everybody going crazy when they looked the graphics, it was unvelieable

no actually i dont, please elaborate
