I also have some problems against Craig Marduk. RP: The characters I have issues with are capoeira characters - Eddy Gordo, Christie Monteiro, and Tiger Jackson. Q: How about the ones you don't like playing against? Generally, there aren't a lot of matchups where feel confident like, "Okay, this character is going to be weak against me. Like I mentioned earlier, Tekken is a very balanced game. RP: I think there are more characters that I don't like facing off against than characters that I like facing off against. Q: Which characters do you like facing off against? With Tekken Tag Tournament 2, there are at least six characters that I'm looking to use: Marshall Law, Forest Law, Paul Phoenix, Alisa Bosconovitch, Kunimitsu, and Jinpachi Mishima. I've also been playing with Paul Phoenix on and off over the years. Q: So you started with Marshall Law, but what characters do you prefer to play as today and why?
That's what my gameplay style developed around. The character that I was using, Marshall Law, had a lot of good tools to utilize as a turtle.
I got to play with a lot of legends in the Southern California Tekken scene. I started playing this way because of the players brought up around me. Generally, I play the game defense first. Lately I've been trying to add more offense to my game, because it's hard to be correct on your defense 100 percent of the time. I like to let my opponents make mistakes and capitalize on them. Q: Describe your fighting style and explain why you use it. Even though the character rosters are very large, you can pretty much pick any character you want to learn and be able to competitive in the game. RP: One of the things that I like is that the games are generally balanced. Q: What do you like most about the Tekken series? So I've been playing Tekken competitively for about eight years, but it was only three years ago that I started getting good at it. I didn't get competitive with the game until Tekken 5. Reepal Parbhoo: I've been playing Tekken since it hit the arcades with Tekken 1. Q: How long have you been playing Tekken? He also runs where they have been putting out content for all things Tekken the past three years. When Major League Gaming had Tekken 6 on their roster you may have heard him as a full-time commentator. Placing in the top three at Evolution three years in a row for Tekken 6, he has shown to be a consistent tournament finisher. As always, there are pneumatic women with an exhibitionist streak though, in fairness, the men’s bodies are just as fetishised.Rip has been playing in the Tekken tournament scene since 2004 and has competed around the world, representing the United States in Korea's Tekken Crash and Japan's SBO. There are numerous recognisable martial arts and disciplines karate, capoeira, boxing, kickboxing, sumo and wrestling. Yes, there are fire- breathing monsters and pugilistic pandas, but Tekken games are actually more grounded than many of their competitors. It also encourages more varied gameplay, as you choose partners to complement one another (a strong brute and a nimble martial artist, for example). Naturally, it makes the bouts faster and more intense. The moment one combatant is knocked out, the round is lost, but team-mates regain energy when they’re waiting beside the ring, so don’t forget to tag!įighters can also kick and punch in tandem. Like other beat-’em-up sequels, it layers on the new fighters with the old, so now there are more than 50 characters to choose from.Īlthough it’s an old-fashioned genre, these games are tactically different when you introduce a tag- team element. Old favourites remain, such as customising your controller and team battles (up to eight versus eight in a turn-based, last-one-standing match). Instead, it gives it a satisfying overhaul – clearer, glossier graphics and richer combat.
The eighth (eighth!) instalment in the series, TTT2 doesn’t reinvent, or even greatly alter, the formula. It’s been more than a decade since the last TTT, but it feels much more recent, probably, because it was one of the most played games on my PS2. Like its predecessors, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is a traditional beat-’em-up that’s clear and playable, but thankfully not too bothered with moderation or subtlety.
