Okay, it's been over two years since some one talked about
Tekken on
VTM so I'm taking it upon myself to try and revive this topic. Why, you ask? There are two reasons: 1) Because it is my firm belief that
Tekken is the greatest fighting game series ever created. 2) Because I have lately found myself running out of
Harry Potter stuff to talk about. I truly believe that this topic could really take off due to all the recent news about
Tekken.
For all you die-hard
Tekken fans out there, there is a great
Tekken fansite out there. If you're interested, feel free to send me an owl and I'll give you the link. I don't want to be guilty of SPAMing so I'm not going to post it here.
Without further ado, I'll get this thing going by giving my relevent info:
Name:
Zophael (
VTM),
Ploo-Ard (
Tekken)
Favorite Characters:
King,
Armor King,
Yoshimitsu,
Kazuya,
HeihachiPlaying
Tekken Since:
Tekken 2, 1995-96
I have a PS2 and two copies of
Tekken 5 
(you know, just in case). I have played
Tekken: DR on the PSP but after I beat the game with everyone, experimented with the new characters
Lili,
Dragunov and
Armor King, and tried out
King's new moves, I stopped playing it and gave it back to the friend who let me borrow it. I gotta tell ya, that PSP is a real pain in the neck (literally). Plus, the D-Pad stinks on that thing. I can't pull off half of my moves with it! But anyways, I really love the game and have been playing it since high school (yes, I'm 28). I used to be a huge WWF fan (WWE now, I guess) and that's why I liked
King. But when I first started playing he was really hard to use so I used
Armor King and
Yoshimitsu instead. Right around
Tekken Tag is when I finally got ahold of
King's moves--- namely, his throws. Now, nothing pleases me more than watching
King roll his opponent around on the ground for 100 points of damage or so

.
So, does anybody have any
Tekken news? The latest I've heard is that
Namco Bandai has decided to release
Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection on PS3 as kind of a buffer to keep us satisfied until the release of
Tekken 6. There has been no release date for it yet (to my knowledge at least) but I do know that it will be a downloadable game that can be purchased only from the
Sony Store online.
I hope there are more
HP/Tekken fans out there that wanna take a break from HP and chat about
Tekken strategies and characters and whatnot. That's all I have for now.
Laters,

P.S. If you aren't too busy, you can check out the video I made of some of my favorite
King combos. It's called
King's 24. Enjoy.
