With that in mind, I will try to expand on things a bit more, but be forewarned - you just really have to see and play this game to understand why it is so good. Let's start with the different game modes. Namco has done a great job in developing new game modes to keep the fighting genre fresh and this game is no exception. All of the standard modes you would expect are here with a couple of new additions. These new additions are what I will talk about because your old favorites are as flawless as ever. The first is called the Tekken Force mode. This is a side-scrolling beat-em-up ala Fighting Force. You can select your favorite character and see if you can bash your way through four different sections. This was a great idea that just did not quite click (one of the few complaints about the game). It was really cool playing outside of the traditional fighting arena but the problem was that the maneuvering of your character was difficult to say the least. They tried to make it 3D so you were supposed to be able to go in and out of the screen. Unfortunately, this was easier said than done. The second new mode is called the Tekken Ball mode. The idea of this game is similar to volleyball. You will play against another character and the object is to keep a ball from landing on your side of the court. If the ball lands on your side, your life will go down as if being hit. Also, you can super charge the ball so if your opponent touches it, they will lose some life. This was a pretty cool addition to the game but remember, it is only accessible after you finish the game with all of the characters. Speaking of the characters, this game has plenty. One thing that has always been cool about this series is that the characters all have their own unique style, look and personalities. As a secondary Xiaoyu, Miharu doesn’t add much.Let's just say that this is truer than ever. Okay, there is that one move where she does a selfie with her opponent right before they collapse to the ground. Just goes to show that nobody in Tekkenis 100% crap. Jack is great because he’s the Judgment Day T-800 mixed with the Iron Giant. He’s a drone that broke away from what he was created to be. So when you look at Prototype Jack, you’re left with Jack without any of the substance. His defining characteristic is that he’s shoddy and falls apart. That said, his metallic Clark Still appearance is totally sweet. ANGEL First appearance: Tekken 2Īngel is one of those characters whose origins and identity are supposed to be all mysterious, but she doesn’t do enough to make that mystery worth caring about. She starts off in Tekken 2 as Devil’s alternate outfit, which fittingly makes her the final boss if you play as Devil. She exists for the sake of attempting to draw out the goodness in Kazuya, but isn’t actually part of him (unlike Devil). Maybe she helped him chill out enough during that tournament to romance Jun Kazama and create Jin as some kind of prophecized “chosen one” thing? Who knows? After the game, she falls into obscurity and only shows up in the non-canon Taggames. Her Tekken Tag Tournament 2 update did at least add a little personality, and that’s a plus. Namely that Angel has a sinister and violent streak barely buried under her righteous demeanor. That face she makes at Ogre during the Tag 2 intro sure is something. Listen, the most entertaining thing Michelle Chang’s ever done is throw a tomahawk at Heihachi in the Tekkenanime, and it was only entertaining because Heihachi caught and shattered it with his teeth. When it comes to the original core cast, Michelle’s just so forgettable. She has so little personality that her endings are a cure for insomnia. The first Tekken Tag Tournament is a cavalcade of lame, 20-second endings and Michelle’s was probably the absolute worst, showing nothing more than she and Julia sitting down on a grassy hill and having a conversation that we can’t hear a word of because the only audio is from the stock ending music. Her saving grace is her Tekken Tag Tournament 2 ending. Michelle and Julia become a mother/daughter luchadora tag team. It goes with her use of the Perfect Plex, I guess. When Namco introduced Siegfried into Soul Edge, they gave a white bread warrior a backstory about accidentally murdering his father in battle and turned it into one of the series’ best character arcs. They even got an iconic villain design out of it. That makes it all the more depressing that Baek, vanilla Tae Kwon Do practitioner, has the same starting point and simply exists. Other than pissing off Marshall Law and having that swept under the rug by later games, Baek does little more than occasionally feel bad.
