>best game in the series, even better in Dark Resurrection
>possibly one of the best fighting games of all time
convince me otherwise. i'll be waiting.

>>11835216 (OP)
I originally read that as 'even better than Dark Resurrection' and was about to call you a faggot. You're right though OP, literally every Tekken fan knows 5 is the best - even the pros and FGC tryhards.

If they remastered this, same engine, same everything with just a graphics upgrade and said ''hey, we're dropping all support for Tekken 8 and instead focusing on Tekken 5 and its approach to Tekken, and translate fan favourite newer characters to be more 5 like in playstyle'' Namco would be completely forgiven. Unfortunately, the world is gay and fighting game fans aren't allowed to have nice things.

>>11835250
I agree on everything except the remaster part, but that's only because it's in my nature to refuse anything remastered or remade. if it would get the normalfags playing, then sure.
also, I think I have a problem. I can't get into any fighting game other than Tekken style. (so Virtua Fighter too, to an extent) the style of Street Fighter and other (2D) fighting games just feel very lame and slow to me.

>>11835257
Tekken 8 looks fine, I say remaster because it means it keeps the original game completely intact, I also think it'd be cool if they added newer Tekken characters and retooled them so they have smaller strings like in 5, rather than the fucking 40 hit wall carry shit we have now. I would also love a straight HD port, but Namco refuse to do that even though their best fighters (Tekken 5 and Soul Calibur 2) are older, they won't even give us modern ports. A proper remaster would allow it to take the place of Tekken 8 fully at EVO and everything.

But you have to admit, Tekken 5 has weird bodies. I remember Jin having weirdly large brown nipples, the artstyle in newer Tekken is fundamentally the same it's just more high fidelity

Also that's normal, with 3D fighters I can only play Tekken and SC, everything else I'm trash, with 2D I can only play SF. Anything remotely different seems to puzzle me and I freeze up. Street Fighter is a bit faster than Tekken so I don't know if I follow you here, if you're throwing out random hits that don't link I guess I can see why you'd think it's slower. not dissing you btw.

>>11835257
3d fighters by nature are all way slower than any 2d fighter, can't jump far, can't move across the screen fast, can't use projectiles

>>11835216 (OP)
It's broken as fuck, moreso than Tekken 3 which is at least is broken in a fun way.
Tag1 and DR are the essential competitive Tekken games.

>>11835272
You mean Tag 2, dumbass. Also OP already specified it was improved in DR.

what is so much better in DR?
I don't get it

>>11835216 (OP)
nah i like it too man.

>>11835280
You should google it, mostly comes down to new stages and new moves. It's a better game, but not so much better than the original 5 is ''bad''.

Imagine this: Tekken 8 got released, and instead of patches, updates and DLC there was instead an entirely different version Tekken 8: Poopoopeepee with all of those fixes and new content.

>>11835274
I mean Tag1, dumbass.
Tag2 is a cool game but it almost killed the series and its comp scene.
>OP already specified it was improved in DR.
It wasn't just improved. Tekken 5 balance is fucked up, at least in the 5.0 version that PS2 port is based on. DR is like a different game entirely and has earned its legendary status. It's wrong to conflate the two.

>>11835216 (OP)
This really needs a perfect port with DR resolution, balancing and characters; and vanilla extra modes.

>>11835290
>You should google it, mostly comes down to new stages and new moves. It's a better game, but not so much better than the original 5 is ''bad''.
>T. never played Tekken competitively

>>11835297
I meant to say ''that'' rather than ''than'', as in, I'm saying Tekken 5 isn't bad just because DR is way better. Does that change how you'd respond to me, or are you just a confrontational coon? if so, do you play Tekken 8 or 7 on PC?

>>11835303
I'm not saying vanilla 5 is bad either, it's just not the best Tekken game.
>do you play Tekken 8 or 7 on PC?
Played 7 a lot, dropped 8 after I realized I didn't enjoy it. Why?

>>11835348
So it was a misunderstanding. I was simply telling that fella to google why DR was better than 5 and you came at me with random shit.
>Why?
Because you implied I don't play tekken competitively, I still have 8 installed and I was willing to play you.

>>11835250
I also misread that as better than Dark Resurrection and I also was about to call him a faggot, what a coincidence.

>>11835448

>>11835292
>but it almost killed the series and its comp scene
tag 2 literally invented the tekken pro scene and carried it for years. holy shit fuck you. you don't know anything.

>>11835741
Tag 1 did, zoom-zoom

>>11835756
What the fuck are you talking about? there was never a proper Tekken competitive scene around the time TAG 1 released. Are you actually retardedand making shit up in your head? fucking google or duckduckgo it. it wasn't until 5 that there became a proper scene.

Are you actually a fucking retard?

>>11835784
Nigger, Evo 2003, 2003 and 2005 were held before you were born and had Tag 1 tourneys running in parallel with the newest T4 and T5 because many pros refused to play those and stayed with Tag 1. It took DR for them to finally migrate.

>>11835801
yeah yeah we all know about backroom trash. i'll bet you never won a bathroom money match.

But I'm asking abourit it directly - Tekken usually got carrued as a headliner from t6 and 7 0 if you disagree you're wrong. Whatis your name? You could end this. You really have no name in the tekken scene, no wins in tekken tag, 4, 5 ,6 7 or tag too. say who you are or shut the fuck up. if not, just gonna assume you're a shitter that's never placed and cant even get past Aris.

>>11835809
Sure bro, but you first

>>11835216 (OP)
Is the PS3 port the definitive version other than it lacking the story mode?

>>11835784
TAG 1 was THE competitive Tekken of choice up until T5DR.

>>11835826
No name? just a shit talker?? okay bro

>>11835831
DR has only one definitive version: the Namco system 256 one.

>>11835836
I won Tag tourneys before you were born, zoomer faggot

>>11835842
And your name is/was?

>>11835784
NTA but we had a scene even before the PS2 port. Many still liked the arcade version better.

>>11835851
Who's we? What are was your ''scene'' from?

>>11835863
area* hope it'd not socal or nocal because you'll get fraud chacked so hard.

>>11835863
Southampton, PA. What's your scene?

>>11835869
Post your name and the arcades you were known at

>>11835297
>t. never played Tekken competitively
NTA but I don't see why I should care about that

>>11835267

I adore this guy, whenever he does the win pose where he looks at the camera it makes me smile

>>11835937
>mfw OP truly is a fag

>>11835350
I want them to make T8 playable so bad, but playing that game currently feels like going to a Chuck-e-Cheese in a low income neighborhood, if you know what I mean

>>11835937
He's a pretty cool guy

>>11835893
>southampton
so, no scene? There was no fucking scene in your lame part of town. Philly has players, southampton doesn't.
>>11835842
yeah yeah, you beat a bunch of dads at gamestop that one time, right? good for you.

I'm about 3 seconds away from posting my steam username so you faggots can add me and see what you're dealing with. Convince me it's worth losing sponsorships due to association with 4chan.

worthless coons

i fucking hate tekken fans so much

>>11835741
Lmao did you just reveal how much of a kid you are? Im 30 year old 09'er and I remember clearly in my head watching Tekken 6 bob mirrors in tournaments while waiting for SF4 to come on stream (I always thought Tekken fucking sucked compared to SF4). Tag 2 came out later and a lot of people hated Tag 2 because of a lot of dumb bullshit and Tekken 7 swooped in and saved the competitive scene I guess

>>11836732
fat bob mirror matches only became a thing at the end of tt2's life, it was always about Dragunov. You'd know that if you actually played instead of ''watched''. interesting that 09ers are trying to use the term like it's benefitting. lmfao.

you literally just admitted that you watched instead of played and you're an 09er, and tried to brag about it. let that sink in for a minute.

>>11836748
Do you not fucking read? Tekken 6 bob mirrors you stupid asshole. Tekken 6 Bob was the best character in the game. Tekken 6 came out before TT2 you fucking retarded shithead zoomer

>>11836801
We were talking about Tag 2, you brought up Tekken 6 on your own. I continued to talk about Tag 2, the game we were talking about before you decided to cut in with your shit.

go back to watching streams and let the men speak you insufferable fag.

>>11836823
>tag 2 literally invented the tekken pro scene and carried it for years.
But you're fucking wrong and retarded. Theres been Pro Tekken players since at least Tekken 6 is what im saying. Unless by "Pro" you mean like gay fag esports shit with sponsors and teams. That shit didn't really happen until Tekken 7 anyways.

>>11837271
>"tag 1 being at evo years before t6 and tag 2 existed le doesn't count"

can you two queers get a room or something? I wanna talk tekken 5 not watch you two duke it out while you shit all over the thread
here is a topic to discuss:
Azazel from T6 is the worst fucking fighting game boss ever, if there was ever a contest

>>11837329
>Azazel
Not retro, dumbass

>>11837350
don't be so strict, anon, it's a tekken thread after all and we've already discussed even newer games like 8

>>11835250
>If they remastered this
The arcade game was "remastered" for PS3 with 1080p and online play
