I'd like to bring one particular point to light here. Hasn't anybody noticed that you're PSYCHOTIC!? :D

Have you actually played Tekken 5? Even from those tiny shots of T6 you can clearly see the additional detail, and the fact that there's self shadowing going on, which anyone can tell you makes a huge difference, already transports it far beyond what was done in T5. The backgrounds are also EASILY much more detailed.

I'm not saying it's particularly "impressive" per se, because it's prolly difficult to make a jump as significant as that of Tekken Tag over Tekken 3 visually, but the difference is super obvious, and it's a clear improvement over Tekken 5 regardless.

It's weird how designs seem to rub off on everyone.

First... well FIRST first had to be the Ryu/Akira thing. I mean..... well yeah. No further explanation needed.

But with my first I wish to point to another first.. the first time in ages VF made attempts to broaden its appeal by adapting Jin and Steve Fox.

Now Jin was a karate guy by the time he got a hoodie and looked all mysterious, but before that he had Jun's judo stuff aswell. Goh Hinogami in VF4: Evo sported a judo style and an eerily similar stance and overall look mixed with a pinch of Kazuya "I'm dead!" hues in face.

Steve Fox bobbed and weaved his way into Tekken 4, and likewise did Brad Burns (Mr Burns? Eeeexcellent..) in VF4: Evo, sporting the exact same hair style and poor choice of clothing.. Despite alledgedly being italian. (!)

Let's see.. I can't guarantee that this doesn't get confusing soon so hold on and keep up.. and also keep in mind that I'm rather pissed to be honest! :D *hic*

SoOoo. Yeah. Then we have Tekken 5 not wanting to miss out on the character theft and grabs an incredibly Aoi looking chick by the tits and drags her into the tournament. Asuka doesn't quite engage in the same activities, but even so.

Aoi! No wait I meant haiya! No, honest!


"What about meee!!?" And Itagaki immediately shows up and puts a sock in it.


Let's stay with DOA4 for a second though and check out Miss Montenegroooonoooowaiiit. It's Le Mariposa! But she's doing essentially the same stuff and wears funky brazilian outfits and is a fucking pain in the butt whenever someone hammers the controls.

DoA also brought in a young looking blonde boy with sort of contemporary clothes and a style that you wouldn't immediatly figure he'd have. Then Leo comes running and looks essentially like Eliot which is where I wanted to arrive with this point.

Also, El Blaze shows up in VF5 looking a bit lost and says "So I'm like.. kicking and doing funky dances too! Love me?" and Sega shows once more that they conmpletely missed the point of long legs, bouncing tits and tropical looking women.

Theeee eeend.

Goodnight my princess of Maine, you kings of.. england I think. Possibly the new one.

Although I'm not going to bed just yet! More beer!
