Look, I get why people love Tekken 3. It is more refined and you have additions like Brian and Hourang but man, Tekken 2 is such a great foundation of a cool, almost realistic, 3D fighting game, with some fantastical elements. I love the dramatic camera angles involed with the grapples. The characters are very versatile and great move sets. Plus the roster is much larger and overall great. Plus, Ogre is a lame boss character compared to Devil/Angel. This game did so many things right, it's still fun as hell to play. Smooth animation and frame rate.
@@ibblue0710 damn wonder who that could be??? 🤔🤔🤔 lmao Honestly 3 always left a sour taste in my mouth cause they took out my girl Jun. I played Tag 1 much more than 3 as a result.
@@lindblumpickles3407 Agreed. Jun was always one of my mains in Tekken 2 and Tekken Tag. Like, it could have been cool to see her as the new boss character in 3. Like the new "Angel", since Jin took some of the Devil from Kazuya.

TEKKEN and Marshall Law's Run Up & Drop move; the reason I wanted a PlayStation. I would have asked for any system back in the day, just to play TEKKEN and do that move over and over again.
Wouldn't it be awesome for Bandai Namco to make a Tekken collection with: ▶Tekken ▶Tekken 2 Ver. β ▶Tekken 3 ▶Tekken 4 ▶Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection ▶Tekken 6 BTW, the "B" is β as in _beta_ .
I still feel that T2 has a lot of charm. T1 is marred down by its speed, lack of responsiveness and badly aged visuals. While T2 isn't much of a looker either, it has enough improvements to manage to cross the line between painfully antiquated and charmingly antiquated.
Honestly I prefer 2 over 3. 3 ticked me off with it replacing some of my favorite characters. And if I'm going to play 3, I'd rather play Tag since it has the stuff from 3 plus the original characters. I wish Jaycee would have stuck to 7 because screw Julia for replacing Michelle.
I loved this game when it came out. Tekken 1 was my first Playstation 1 game and Tekken 2 was a game that I´ve got on my birthday. I have so many cool memories of those games and to hear that people trash it like that...... it just hurts. Sorry. You can´t expect that a 3D Fighting game from the 90s plays like Tekken 7.
Unfortunately Virtua Fighter 2 was out and played much better than the first two Tekken games. Tekken 3 decided to actually take advantage of the 3D plane and managed to have it's own identity compared to it's predecessors.
Heihachi was playable in Tekken 1 (PS1 version at least) I remember being 12 years old (back in 98) and it took me forever to unlock him because what you have to do is have 20 seconds on the clock and put the fight count to 1 and be arcade mode without using a continue. The first game in my opinion isn’t great and it ultimately only has a roster of 17 characters of those 17 characters only the starting eight have endings. Tekken 2 on the other hand every character had an ending to this day I still think has the best roster of any Tekken game (main series) The music was better than both the first and third, again in my opinion. The only thing that was better in three was the gameplay even though I will say graphically when compared to VF2 Tekken 2 doesn’t really hold up all that well. Just my take and opinion is all.
Yes. You were able to unlock everyone in this game...... even tho Armor King played like King with Kazuya mixed into him...... and Kunimitsu was pretty much Yoshimitsu with an different skin.
Wow! These classic old Tekken games, kinda play similar to the Tekken 7 game. The combat might still be very basic and stiff, but at least the old games, had a charm to them. Tekken 2 is a bit better than Tekken 1 in some ways. But I can't fully agree, that Tekken 3 is better than Tekken 2. But yeah, VF1 back then, always had more style, more depth and was always, alot more fun to play. Tekken 1, 2, 3 etc and even Tekken 7, despite having basic, barebones combat, are kinda okay though. But I will admit, the older Tekken games, like Tekken 1, Tekken 2 and Tekken 3 are fun games, and had a cool charm to them.
I like how you can see the improvements between each game

Tekken was ass before Tekken 3 came out.
@@SilkyLew obviously, it was good to some degree or they wouldn't have made a third one.
I appreciate your opinion, but I just like Tekken 3 more just because it was the introduction to one of my favorite characters in the series.

They got the years all wrong XD
Tekken 1 - 1994 (Arcade) 1995 (PSone)
Tekken 2 - 1995 (Arcade) 1996 (PSone)
Tekken 3 - 1997 (Arcade) 1998 (PSone)
watching this has really made me miss the old sound effects of tekken
Whoa. Since 1997 when I played Tekken 1 and I didn't know that the sun in Monument Valley did actually move 4:24
Caporai lol that’s cause we didn’t have anything that could make the games look cleaner so the backgrounds look like shite

Tekken 2, so many good memories.
Jack-2, Heihachi, Anna (my waifu in the Tekken series), Roger was so funny XD
Awesome showcase of the tekken and tekken 2 tekken 3 is a lot of fun
Remember how tekken was going to be called rave war
TEKKEN and Marshall Law's Run Up & Drop move; the reason I wanted a PlayStation. I would have asked for any system back in the day, just to play TEKKEN and do that move over and over again.
Kazuya's ending smile makes me laugh
Looks weird af :p
For tekken one and two you have to hit the D pad/Arcade stick Three times
The first game I remember playing was Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! before the SNES came out.
Wouldn't it be awesome for Bandai Namco to make a Tekken collection with:
▶Tekken
▶Tekken 2 Ver. β
▶Tekken 3
▶Tekken 4
▶Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection
▶Tekken 6
BTW, the "B" is β as in _beta_ .
Tekken 2 is great and I will hear nothing different.
Better soundtrack than 3 also ;) imo of course.
Facts. Way better ost
I see ur a man of culture as well
I agree.
I prefer the Arcade soundtrack of T2
The music that plays in the rival battle (battle before Kazuya) was epic.
I still feel that T2 has a lot of charm. T1 is marred down by its speed, lack of responsiveness and badly aged visuals. While T2 isn't much of a looker either, it has enough improvements to manage to cross the line between painfully antiquated and charmingly antiquated.
King df1 on block is terrifying, you rather get hit by it instead of blocking it which is +93
First baby! Yeah! Years of trying to be the first has paid off.... now i don't know what to do with this success.
You did it!! :D
Congrats!👏👏👏👏
Now cure cancer
Tekken 2 is my favorite play shit out of thisn

Tekken 1 & 2 aren’t bad games, but I’ve always preferred Tekken 3 for obvious reasons.
Tekken 2 has a better soundtrack than Tekken 3
I like the Arcade OST
Tekken 2 >>> Tekken 3
I feel the same way.
Tekken 2 is just watered down Virtua fighter while Tekken 3 managed to stand on it's own XD
I like the atmosphere in Tekken 2 and some of the music too but I do think Tekken 3 plays better
@@kevinnightmareszzz6140 That's the main reason I prefer 2. The atmosphere is incredible.
Plus, Ogre was kind of lame compared to Devil/Angel
Virtua Fighter and Tekken Get More Fun in their 3rd installment
Tekken 3 and Virtua Fighter 3TB
VF 1 is kinda boring
VF 2 is meh
