[PS3] Tekken: Dark Resurrection (PS3)

I can't wait for it either. I just got a 720P 30" Widescreen TV today so I'll actually be able to start caring about this HD crap now.

I also have Tekken: DR for the PSP and it's awesome, and I thought I couldn't like Tekken 5 anymore then I already did. I just hope that for the US version of DR for the PS3 that they manage to bring Dojo mode over from the PSP version and maybe the user AI network too. Thoes features were really SWEET!!!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't really have one I don't think man, whenever I play DR on PSP I just get aggrivated with the controls and want to play it on the PS2... so I do. I haven't really done a whole wack on DR to make a compitent ghost version of myself. Perhaps I'll make that a project over the next little while and get back to ya man.

If you have one though feel free to send it to me and I'd be happy to square off against it. ^^

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah I noticed that on the PS2 version on Tekken 5, however there are two factors that creates this. First is that the PS3 controller is a LOT more stiff and needs a LOT of breaking in to get it working right. The second thing I noticed is after extensive play you manage to adjust and the issue goes away.

However if you consider yourself a hardcore arcade fighter, perhaps you should be playing on a Hori to begin with

How ya doing, buddy?

Bah... what better practice is there then getting your butt handed to you by and Extremely Hard Jin or Heihachi? lol

Most amazing jew boots

That's what Namco is hinting to, however no official word has been announced yet. Fingures and toes crossed people.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yeah, the PSP's latency of frame display is bad enough, online lag would just be unplayable.

As for VF being more complex then Tekken that's arguable. There's more types of moves in VF, but there's more striking moves and combos (straight combos, not chained combos) in Tekken. Either way, they're both great games and I don't think that anyone who's in their right mind would argue that,

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I would add SoulCalibur between Tekken and DOA, I know it has weapons, however it is reconized as Evo to be on the same level as the earlier mentioned. Well not DOA, it's a joke in the eyes of Evo, too quirky, the balance is like they're not even trying, and it's just simply no where near the level of Tekken, SC, or VF.

FELIPE NO

The FMVs are in the game, when you beat the Story mode (if it's in it like DR for the PSP) you get to view the videos, however in order to unlock the videos in the Theatre you have to purchase the videos from the store in the game.

-DOUBLE POST-
From what I'm hearing Tekken DR should be up this afternoon. Time to find out how much BS IGN is really made of.

-TRIPPLE POST-
Looks like Tekken DR isn't going to be coming out till Thursday now according to IGN, and has been put to TBD on the official Namco site instead of the "Available Now" status.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It would be nice for some official news. Like release confirmation and perhaps a price.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

For sure, VF5 is pretty bad ass, playing it right now actually (currently fighting Kage), it's reqlly odd that it's even taking this long because in the IGN interview the lead director said that the NA DR is the same as the JP DR, therefore it shouldn't require anything seeing how the JP version works on NA PS3s. Then with the whole added secrecy something's up.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

You have to have a second profile for player 2 on the system if you want their stats and custom characters saved for them. And you can NOT use your 5.0 saves for DR. Different coding entirely.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The air juggle is the same in VF, SCIII and Tekken. The float time may very, but not by all that much. Also Tekken is a combo game, not a chipping game like VF. At the EVO Tournament it's usually only 2 connections each leading into a combo to win a round, Tekken's always been like that and I love it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Hey, I'm sure that a lot of people who were interested in how to get two customization profiles, one for each player on the one PS Account have already figured it out, but because I've already been asked by a couple of people as to how to do this I thought I would post the steps here for all who want to know can see.

1.) Create a SECOND PS Account
2.) Start Tekken: DR, create a profile, and save.
3.) Copy the save file from this Account to your primary PS Account
4.) Delete second PS Account if you wish
5.) Start Tekken: DR and each profile should be set to their respective players

It's weird that the game supports the dual profiles but how you have to have them both saved under one account. Oh well, now everyone knows how to do it. Good luck and post if you have any problems.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Pfft... ALL fighting games over the net are LAGGY. And from what I've heard from some people's experiance Tekken Online has some of the most stable net code to date for a fighting game.

Which is why I never understood this huge outcry for online play in fighting games. Sure it's a good idea. But until we actually get net code that runs at an optimal pace I don't think developers should obey the people on this one.

Also don't forget that online play takes away from the rest of the game's dev time. No wonder all the SC4 news is sounding like crap, because they're creating an online mode. But I'll save the rest of this rant for a more appropriate place. However my point stands that even if Tekken Online is the BEST online fighting game (have yet to play it), it's still going to suck for the officianotos who play the game for real. (Like you and I)

Oh well, I'm still going to get the update for the new modes, and a hopefully tear free 1080 display support. (Maybe the weird flat tone effect will also be removed from the two levels that had the issue, wasn't in the original AC game)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

That's true. But there were also only like 20 of us at the bussiest times playing too, so it's not like the servers were bombarded like Tekken, DOA, VF5 or anything else is/will be.

I can't wait for KoF XI to come out in US this september with at least decent online support. (2D fighters are just starting to get solid net code)

FELIPE NO

To get the japanese version you need a JPN account, which is easy enough for I have one also. However buying things is the real trick. You can still use NA credit cards, but you can't deposit more then $5 USD at one time otherwise the PSN cross checks your card with your account address, and if it doesn't match your account gets flagged. But it can be done.

Other then that though, it doesn't matter if he had a JP PS3 or Tekken Online, anyone can still play anyone due to that Tekken has international servers.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well the JAP and EUR versions do, so I can't forsee why the US version wouldn't too. But no one really know for 100% right now either.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'll be getting on ASAP. Maybe not tonight, but I'll be doing my best for tomorrow. For thoes who are interested in my arsenal.

1. Bryan Fury
2. Steve Fox
3. Baek Doo San
4. Hworang
5. Dragunov

So yeah, hope to fight you guys soon ^^
I'm also looking forward to the pratice mode for Dragunov and Lilly. I've been using the PSP version for them, but it's hard to do some combo stringing with it's D-pad. Survival Mode will be a cool addition too.

P.S.
My PSN ID is the same for all my consoles (and always will be): ChaosLegionaire

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Thanks for the compliments man. I haven't played for a couple weeks so I decided to jump back on. While Bryan is normally my best character I'm afraid that he's beginning to lack in his move variety with me. Also after we were done I went into practice to train with Steve. I'm working on some new stuff for ya ^^

Your Baek kept me on edge trying to block all your varied attacks. And your Lilly was pretty hectic. I don't have any friends who use her so it was a new experiance for me to see so many consecqutive moves coming from her. Very hard to predict.

Good fights though. I'll do my best to get better for next time. Good matches.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you like Tekken then 5: DR is the way to go. The controls are the same as the original PS2 T5. But like any other arcade update of a game. There are tweaks and sometimes added stages and items. (this would be one of thoes updates) Oh, and the game is now in FULL HD.

As for your mentioned characters. Like I said, the core is the same but everything is tweaked for better balance, mostly for the better.

There are a couple added characters. Lilli, Dragunov, Armour King, Eddy (no longer a costume), and PS3 exclusive play of Jimpachi.

Last of the new content is the new Online mode. Which for a fighting game is pretty darn slick, and runs great for the most part.

As to how the purchasing works. As it is right now you can only use a credit card in NA. The game is then downloaded to your HDD. No you don't get a hardcopy of the game, but fortunately the online purchases work more like the 360 and less like the Wii. Meaning that items are sold to your account, which allows you to redownload them at any time as long as you're using that account when you go to do so. I only say this for there are thoes who believe that the recovery does in fact retrieve your save files which in fact is not true.

Accounts can be recovered from the PSN after formats. But that does not recover any information like game saves or prior HDD content. It just gives you access to your PSN account again. Therefore if you're going to format save game saves and/or other content to a USB drive or something first.
