When i first got this game i was like wow, but then at the end i found myself throwing the controller on the ground. The story starts with heihachi and Kazuya fighting together, Kazuya escapes and A Jack robot Self-destructs and blows Heihachi to a grave, then Jinpachi (Heihachi's father) rises from underneath the Honmaru. Every mishima is immortal and it terribly strong. Anyway, the characters are great, each of them has a story of why they are entering the tornament. Then i pick Law, beat all of the characters and i get to the boss then he beats me 2 times with this dumb fireball. I managed to dodge one but then he shoots a second one and bang, i'm dead. This has got to be the cheapest boss. First he stuns you with a lightning attack then he hits you with strong attacks. Then when he's done, he stuns me again and i can't attack back. Plus the stage is very annoying, when he knocks you down the rubble flies up and i can't see if i'm up or not. Also the boss is very large and with that aura i can't see myself either. So Tekken guys if your making a tekken 6, DON'T MAKE A BOSS LIKE THAT AGAIN. Also the teen rating is very seriouse because they say (...), ass (can i say ass in a review) and there is this one dude on and underground club stage chanting a cussword. There is also the use of drugs and alcohol. there are sexual themes with the girls wearing skimpy outfits looking like they are going on a date. It also has new cg scenes, the sexual ones are the ones with asuka and anna. Asuka is trying to wake Jin (her dad or brother) after his devil gene is gone, then Jin wakes up, is startled by the place and bang, he slips and ends up having his face in Asuka's (...), he gets up, she gets up and punches him so hard he slides back into a boulder. Then with anna's they are in a gladiator movie and they slash eachother at the same time and it goes on he freeze frame and then anna falls. then when they are talking to Nina her gladiator suit starts to fall apart and she ends up with nothing on and blah blah blah, who cares right. But thats all i have to say about this game, the boss. but the game is very fun and i rate it a 4.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First off let me say I've never enjoyed any anime. Anime was always excrutiatingly boring and without any potential. But despite my anime discrimiation, this game is AWESOME. The fighting styles are real and perfectly in line with the actual martial arts. Plus you have a few added bonuses. Devil Within, a minigame where you play as Jin Kazama trying to make his way through a G Corperation facility and even get a chance to unleash the demon himself! And my favorite feature, you are included the first 3 Tekken games and Starblade, and to make matters better, they're the original arcade versions! This game is almost perfect. But there is a very SERIOUS WARNING about story mode, which you need to complete several times to unlock characters. The end fight is extremely hard. See, the last level has quite a few glitches. I don't mean the "go through walls" glitches. I mean like sometimes when you attack Jinpachi (the bad guy) he's got like a weird shield every once and a while. And his special attack where he spits fire out of his stomach mouth has a nasty habit of automatically killing you on full health. And worst of all he has a sickeningly unfair advantage where he paralyzes you and if he manages to do that, you most likely are going to lose the fight. And he does that a lot, so you lose a lot. One of my friends lost so many times to him and got so mad that he broke his controller. Anyway, if you can't take the frustration of losing to a cheating jerk a lot, then I'm telling you now, just use a gameshark to get all the characters and forget about it. All in all, ignoring Jinpachi Mashima, the game is one of the best in the world. Get it! (and a gameshark to get the characters.)
hmmmmmmmmm its ok

i like tekkan but it is just that some of the levels are impossible.The graphics are ok but you will get bored of it quite quick annd it wasted 40 pounds of my pocket money.
only get it if your really really desperate and your a expert and you played all the other games.
Not the Greatest Fighting Game, but it's okay

finally bought this game and didn't put it down till i had completed the story mode with my fav char Brian. Tekken is definitely much easier to pick up and mash buttons than virtua fighter, but more fun because of that as well.
i didn't like the fact that they've changed the way characters move in and out of the screen.... in T4 simply using the up or down arrow would cause the chars to move in and out of the screen... in t5, you have to do a double tap and that confused me a little in the beginning as my finger memory took time to adjust... but most of the moves are essentially the same though there are some minor advancements.
the devil jin and the teleporting destruction farting boss at the end are the most difficult to get to get through (imho), but i was happy once i managed to defeat them ;)
Good as a 3D fighter.

I think this game is good as a 3D fighter, but I also think it's a little overrated. 3D fighters tend to get higher ratings than it's 2D counterparts in gaming magazines because they score higher on the graphics review just because it's 3D.
Compare Tekken 5's gameplay to Marvel vs capcom 2, Guilty Gear X2, and Capcom vs SNK 2 and it doesn't even match up to the likes of those time-less ps2 classics which are also all 2D fighters. trust me, you will get so much more replay value from those other fighters.
If you like 3D fighters pick this one up. I didn't enjoy the game much and have had it for a year and never felt inclined to return back to it again. I haev also played other 3D fighters with high ratings such as virtua fighter, dead or alive, or soul calibur and not a single one fo them brings up the fighter-spirit i get from GGX2, MVC2, or CVS2.
The best Tekken game for all time period.

Clearly, this Tekken 5 is the best fighting game and it is the best Tekken series for all time period based on these points:
1. Graphics are tremendous.
2. Characters are fantastic including some new characters like Raven, Asuka and Feng. Also, there are some returning characters since Tekken 2 or 3 (excluding Tekken Tag Tournament) like Bruce, Baek, Mokujin and Anna. All new and old characters are perfect.
3. Game play is good, not a very tough one.
4. The Tekken: Devil within mini game is a tough game but the graphics are much better than the Tekken force in Tekken 4. Well, it is hard to beat this game but try it.
So, based on these three I mention above. I say it is fantastic. Recommended.
Tekken 5

Tekken 5 is alot better than Tekken 4, but the boss of Tekken 5 takes a lot of practice. I beat him by grappling him the whole time.
