I NEED IT NOOOOOOOW

Is there any point in getting this if I'm just going to play online?

What are some new modes for this?

I havent played Tekken since 4.

Anyone who's been exposed to more technical, more dynamic fighting games will quickly pass on tekken. Other top fighters, namely Street Fighter, KoF and MK have advanced impressively in their latest installments; but the relic that is tekken just can't seem to evolve, furthermore many combos can be done simply by hitting 1-button, and the nearly "instant-kill" rage art moves are just laughably broken. Instead of a supplying a proper fighting engine, matches in T7 seem to rely heavily on "who can get their rage move off first". So many elements of the gameplay don't even require any sort of skill. In my book, slow motion over and over again also gets old very quickly. And in the end, it's more of a novelty or gimmick rather than an actual, thought-out fighting game mechanic. But hey, the casual crowd will be pleased!

If you want something a little more "button-masher-friendly," tekken might be your cup of tea.... Key word, might.

What? Isn't multiplayer like 99% of the reason to get a fighting game?

I don't know about KoF (it has always been impressive), but

My experience with tekken is 40 minutes with tekken 5 emulated, I can't wait to get my ass beat in this game

Playing multiplayer locally is the reason to get a fighting game you casual fuck. You're literally retarded if you practice to play in a laggy environment.

How many sleepies until Julia?

I mean, I've been to dozens of offline events, from EVO to NEC. So, I guess?

I didn't say "online multiplayer" is 99% of the reason to play. It's the easiest way to get any practice in, though. And don't act like it doesn't help. Especially in Tekken, where you can learn strings and punishes and shit. Plus, it actually can make your throw breaks and whiff punishes stronger. If you can do it online you CAN do it offline.

Regardless, the online in Tekken is pretty good. You know, for online.

Ironically, couch multiplayer is the most casual game "mode"

This. I've played it a few times. It's pretty top notch. Unless they do something really fucking stupid or don't fix the framerate jank it'll be 10/10.

I want to practice for this game but the mechanics in t7 are different to ttt2. What's the best way to practice learning a character and combos on ttt2 to get ready for t7

There is a PSP T6 mod that implements the screw attack system and some new animatios. It's janky but it works.

Pretty new to Tekken in general but I'm gonna pick this up. I'm decent at most fighting games but not really great. Is this pretty easy to get into without completely devoting yourself to it? Is a fight stick necessary or would a pad be okay?
