I love Tekken!! Tekken 2 was my favourite until no. 5 came along. Easily the best 3d fighting game (street fighter owns all in the fighting genre IMO). The soundtracks have always ben sick too.

Not a huuge fan of the Tekken series, but Tekken 5 is a good game

Nothing can top SFII, I'd rather play that.........as for MK....I can't find my Trilogy disc :(

^^MK1 and 2 were good (I rinsed the shit out of MK2 on the MegaDrive) but the series lost its way after that.

Guess you haven't played the last 3, which have all been great.

I thought MK Trilogy was OK, but then I discovered the Capcom VS. games and Street Fighter 3 and haven't looked back since.

MK4 was bad IMO, Deadly Alliance recaptured some of the magic (ahhh...the Krypt brought back memories) but the two new ones haven't caught my eye. Saying that, my friend keeps telling me that Shaolin Monks is worth playing so I might check that out.

I like Tekken but all of those games seem way too easy compared to other fighting games just like Soul Calibur. Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks is awesome. Best Mortal Kombat game since MK3. My favorite fighting game of all time is DOA3 hands down.

Shaolin Monks isn't a fighting game, its a beat em up adventure game, like Ninja Gaiden. Cool thing is you can unlock an arcade perfect version of MK2 once you've completed the necessary tasks in the game.

As far as the new MKs go, Deception has been my favorite so far.

yup the tekken series used to be easy until tekken 5 which requires more technique, still it's less sophisticated than SC or Virtua Fighter, one of my favourites 3d fighting game.

On my route I've got a bunch of Tekken's.  Tekken 3 earns the most money, believe it or not.  You can take a spot with a Tekken 4 in it, and take it out, put a Tekken 3 in it, and it'll earn more.  Craziest shit ever.

I've got a spot with a Tekken 5 in it that we just set, but they keep turning the machine off.  This week it had 2 dollars in it, lol. 

Tekken 4's were really bad about burning up.  They had a dvd based setup in them, I even had one catch on fire.  They were really touchy with their power levels too, really strange game, it would freeze a lot, etc.  I probably had 5 of them and they all broke.

I own a Tekken 2 in my home, I never play it though.

There's a huge Street Fighter 3 arcade scene in Japan, and to a much lesser extent in USA and Europe.

SF2 was played out 10 years ago; I remember when arcade owners used to mod the machines so you could pull off some crazy moves...ahhh the good ol' days

Tekken is one of the best series in gaming ever (MK & Killer Instinct are very close, I still play those 2 on emulators).Tekken Tag Tournament has gotta be my favorite part, hope Namco will come with a sequel to that.
