Maybe it's time for me to get back into Tekken.
Allls I can say is, "What, no Soul Calibur 3?"

While the Tekken series is my favorite fighting franchise, I hope Namco does better on Tekken 5 than they did on Tekken 4. It would be great if they could bring back some of the features from Tekken Tag Tournament that 4 lost, such as character variations (i.e. Nina/Anna, Gun Jack/Kuma, the original Jin/Kazuya, etc.). I liked having slight variations in the move sets, as well as just having a larger character roster. And BRING BACK TAG MODE (and even Tekken Ball)!!!
In addition, I'd hope they make the walls more interactive (i.e. being able to do special moves/throws off the walls, a la the DOA series). I have to say, however, that Tekken Force mode in Tekken 4 was excellent. I hope they expand on that as well, and maybe even make a simultaneous 2-player mode with Tekken Tag-Style team attacks. How sweet would that be? :D

That Asuka character looks kickass. She has that one same move Jin used in Tekken 3. Cant quite put my finger on the name tho.

The trailer looks great. I like the new character Feng Wei. So there are only 13 playable characters total? No Heihachi Mishima?

Heihachi has had back problems since like tekken 2. I love tekken though so this is music to my ears. Tekken 4 was good... I don't know what all the fuss was about.
I liked TAG and 3. 1 was okay but I hated 2.

Yes! hopefully the low parry is still universal, I hope they bring more just frame moves in. :wink:

It had better not be console exclusive. If it is, it seems like another game that should have been an arcade release will be going to just to consoles. I can't stand how the arcade industry is in so much trouble :(
