Xbox 360 Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Reviews

[jstep]

Below you can find the reviews for Tekken Tag Tournament 2. It looks like a good bet, if you're into fighting games. They've introduced a new Fight Lab mode, which is basically an in-depth training mode. The graphics are great and the sound is the same Tekken sound that you've grown to love (or hate). All in all, it looks like a solid addition to an already successful franchise.

With its gigantic roster, in-depth character customization options, and breadth of modes, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is definitely a worthy addition to the franchise. That is, if you make it past some of the more frustrating and impenetrable aspects of the Tekken universe. As a way into the genre, it could certainly do a heck of a lot better. But once you’re in, it’s a perfectly solid experience in which brawling fans will find a lot to love.

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 doesn’t overhaul the franchise’s format, instead opting to retain the series’ already-solid gameplay and avoid extraneous modes that detract from the core fighting focus. Even with a somewhat bare-bones online offering, it’s still one of the most refined fighters on the market.

As a catchall franchise compilation, Tekken Tag 2 works for fans who aren’t seeking anything too radically different, delivering plenty of fighters and solid fun, even if it’s traversing well-worn territory. But when another of this year’s fighting games — Capcom’s Street Fighter X Tekken — puts your combatants to more exciting use, it may be time to consider a bolder approach.

I have waited for so long to play a new Tekken Tag game since 2000. It's been more than a decade since the original Tekken Tag and this second iteration easily blows the first one away. With highly upgraded graphics and new gameplay features, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 now becomes my new favorite game of all time.

I found myself playing on my Xbox 360 until midnight just trying to master the combos of some characters so that I could show my stuff online or at an arcade. It's highly addictive.
