Takken 5 Playstation Game Review

The game follows exactly the same storyline as Tekken 5, only with the additions of Emily Rocheport, who seeks to destroy the Mishima Zaibatsu and end her father's financial problems, Sergei, a member of Spetsnaz who has been sent to capture Jin Kazama, and Armor King, who was thought to have been killed before the events of Tekken 4 and whose identity and goals remain a mystery to the player.

Game play

Along with the many additions to the PlayStation 2 port, the Arcade Battle has been upgraded by adding twelve more ranking titles and removing one: Conqueror. Tekken Lord is no longer the highest ranking like it was in Tekken 5. Dark Lord is one ranking above Tekken Lord and the highest ranking is Divine Fist.

Divine Fist is only achieved by successfully completing all of the league matches, survival tournaments and ranking tournaments in Tekken Dojo mode. The opportunity is offered once a promotion chance is offered sometime in the Heaven Dojo, the sixth stage in

Tekken Dojo mode. Obviously it is only offered when the player is ranked as a Dark Lord.

Another addition to Arcade Battle is that it now keeps track of the player's statistics. Each character has a clean slate once they begin playing Arcade Battle. During selecting a character, loading a match and battling an opponent, the player can see their alias, ranking, what region they hail from, their wins, losses and percentage.

PSP version

The PSP version runs at full 60FPS during matches (although it reverts to around 30 fps for the pre-fight and post-fight cinematic). The game features game sharing, which means that only one copy of the game is needed to play over ad-hoc? The game runs on version 2.6 firmware for the North American version, and the European version requires version 2.71.

Other modes include Tekken Dojo, where the player fight ghosts of other players that can be uploaded and downloaded online. They can also download official ghost packs from arcades all over the world. In Gold Rush mode, the player fights for in-game cash. New versions of Tekken Bowl and Command Attack; bonus games from Tekken Tag Tournament and Tekken 4, are also included.

Due to the PSP d-pad's lack of protrusion, Namco produced a special d-pad attachment that sits on top of the PSP's d-pad that came with early releases of the Japanese and Asian versions of the game, as well as pre-ordered copies of the US version. The European version did not include this accessory.
