I really think the hate for T4 is way overblown.
T5 (vanilla+console versions) was just as broken if not more, but that was overlooked because of the amount of content T5 had (T1-3 Arcade Ver., over 30 characters, Devil Within, Ghost Battle, classic Namco arcade mini-games during loading screens, customization).
I always dreamed of a T4 remake (if that ever does happen, I believe it would be a first for a 3D fighting game), but seeing how much of a joke Tekken has become since T6 and especially T8, fuck that.
As for 3rd Strike, as far as I remember nobody really cared at that point about fighting games unless you were a regular at the local arcades, which was already a dying scene.
