translators suck. but i can look past the poor translating and know that i am definitely buying this addon when it becomes available in the NA store.

Snake_Doctor6131d ago

DARN YOU Gaffy For not putting Japan in the title.
DARN YOU TO HECK! lol

IPlayGames6131d ago

create a japan PSN account could i DL this??

Fighting is universal and shouldnt be limited to 1 region (but it does say 4 now).

If i already own Tekken DR do i have to pay for the add-on???

nurayi6131d ago (Edited 6131d ago )

dont think your able to. The JPN store checks the region for credit cards, the HK store doesnt. also you would have to buy the Japanese Tekken:DR version, so the addon would work with it. if your a big enough tekken fan I think the only way you could get it this thurday in the states, is if you found a way to purchase, or have someone else purchase one of those Sony PSN cards (only out in japan, and presumably would only work on the japanese store). otherwise when your billing info doesnt match your psn info for your jpn account, it wont like it.

Edit: hmm according to the comment 4 I guess you can purchase the jpn full pack if you were so inclined. very interesting.

jam96131d ago

It's depend on the credit card as far as I heard.

For example, ppl in Japan having a master card can buy US PSN games. ppl having VISA cannot buy it, though. I'm not sure. Anyway, you can try at least.

However, buying JPN online game means the game will try to make a match through JPN server and to JPN players. You may get huge lag. The game may be not playable. So, buy it if you understand such difficulties and still want to give it a try.

RunamukK6131d ago

So I live in Texas but couldn't wait for the US Tekken to come out so I bought the Jap version...does this mean I can buy online? I gess Im gonna get my @ss handed to me playing online against a bunch of Japanese kids.

HeartlesskizZ6131d ago

Injustice is better than Tekken.

OhMyGandhi2534d ago (Edited 2534d ago )

Soul Calibur is better than both.
By the way, where the hell is Tekken Tag on this list?

generic-user-name2534d ago

@ohmygandhi

It says in the title 'main lineup'.

XanderZane2534d ago

Virtua Fighters is actually better then Tekken. Still, out of all the Tekken games Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 are probably the best in the series. Soul Calibur is still one of my favorite franchises.

Lynx02072533d ago

Depends if you want an animation movie with ok battles or great fighting game with some animations.

Venoxn4g2534d ago

Tekken tag tournament 2 is probably my favourite (still didn't play 7 unfortunately)

Others would be: 5, 3, tag1, 2

generic-user-name2534d ago

Tekken 4 gets a lot of hate, but it has the best story, atmosphere and soundtrack in the series IMO. Sure the gameplay was very unbalanced thanks to the new stuff they tried out but I'd pick it over Tekken 1 any day of the week.

I'd probably agree with the rest of the list, more or less.

derkasan2534d ago

Hear hear. I had a lot of fun with 4. The tiered levels were kind of odd, but it's got a chill style.

Tekken Tag 2 is still my favorite though.

Swiftfox2534d ago

I'm a bit lost on the hate as well.

I mean the engine was different but they had to update the game to a new generation. The tier list gets criticism but Tekken 5 also had huge issues with this and doesn't get half the bad mouthing. The aesthetics of the game were wonderful, the sound design amazing, the music very memorable, and I loved their attempt to reduce the cast and keep the roster diverse while pushing the most down to earth narrative Tekken has seen or will ever see.

I think the fact Tekken 4 was so different from the other Tekken's is why I like it the most.

generic-user-name2534d ago

Good points. And at least they tried something new with the stage design affecting gameplay, sure it didn't work out well that time, but I wish they kept at that, I think they were on to something there.

Hylian102534d ago

Tekken 5 is the best IMO, and my favorite fighting game of all time.

Kakashi Hatake2534d ago

Preach, and the opening of T5 was amazing! Still the best opening in the series. Sucks that it seems they haven't tried to top it.

gangsta_red2534d ago

Was never a huge fan of the Tekken series but I always loved their presentation, characters and cinematics.

The latest one is just all out epic, especially the last battle between Kazuya and Heihachi.
