Tekken 5 Ultimate Collection Review

How right you were I just wish I read that before I went and reserved it. $25 and nothing till monday man I’m pissed!

actually i ordered from gamestop and i’ve had mine since wednesday.

just because you recieved a call saying itll be here doesnt mean it will. the computer calls when the item is being shipped to the store. and gamestop isnt overnighting the bundle.

It could be that the dude checked to make sure but ah well whatever.

Anyways yeah I was one of the people that was screwed over by the delay shipments. I have a question though, is it possible that I could use my reservation towards any store that would have the collection available? I called a couple of stores in my area and there are actually a few that already got their’s. Would it be a good idea to take off my reservation from the store I originally reserved at and use it towards another gamestop?

Playing this right now with the stick it comes with…so far :tup:

I never thought I would be impressed with Tekken.

EDIT: Button mashing gets you somewhere in this game. Just busted a 8-10 hit combo on the Marduke(?) I believe it is. Just like I use to say back in the VF vs Tekken arguements.

No, I called them. They said it was in.

Alright, I just got it. So far, the stick seems alright. I’ll test it on converters later. As for the arcade ports of Tekken 1, 2, and 3, Namco did a better job porting this than what Midway did when they ported the MK games to the PS2.

-Emulation is arcade perfect. And you could set options by holding select.
-All time released characters on Tekken 2 and 3 are already unlocked.
-Not a biggie, but I like it, Pac-Man fruit as win counts are set to default on Tekken 1 and 2.

I guess you can call this Namco Museum: Tekken.

Ok so I called every GameStop in Colorado and no of them have it SCREWED!! Makes me mad I could used that $25 at EB and got it today.

Fucking Bullshit!

This is complete bullshit! I pre-ordered mine and put $25 down on wensday, they tell me I will recieve everything, the bundle and the art book. Gamestop tells me that the bundle will be in thursday, thursday comes, they tell me friday, I just called them. The dumbasses at gamestop tell me that they are recieving the later shipment and will get theirs on monday. But guess what? I dont get the art book! I asked why, the retard tells me that they stopped taking pre-orders with the art book three weeks ago. So i am not getting the art book that everybody else is and I have to wait till momday. I think they are keeping my art book for themselves. I bet i wount even get my bundle on monday. What should i do, I really eant that joystick, I feel that they are going to fuck me over. Please help out a fellow fighter lover.

Man, I just called EB Games. They said it’s there. I need to get out of work. Man, I’d hate to get court martialed, but I’m so excited about this game…

Ha nevermind what I said earlier. I called back my store to ask them a question regarding it and they said that it turned out that they had it in the back the whole time and the dude I spoke to didn’t even know it.:lol:

Just got back from purchasing it, so with that gentlemen I bid you all au revoire…gonna be spending time with it for the rest of the day…and weekend.:grin:

yeah, i copped it today as well. got the artbook also. the artbook is garbage IMHO. i see why it was a bonus and not for sale. its not that serious, for an art book. i dunno, i was expecting a ton of sketches, etc. not a bunch of cg images. its whatever though, i got the game so i’m good.

i haven’t gotten the chance to play it yet because i’m still in school, but i’ll be home by 5 something. unfortunately after that i still have to go on a date tonight at 6(i know, wtf). but after that i’m playing ALL NIGHT until i unlock everything.

MI Read this:

Women should be first on your list of priorities, unless of course you date ugly girls.

I am in the same boat but I get an artbook cause I was flipping mad on the phone. As far as I know there isnt anything we can do. But my plan is this Gamestop gives cash back on unopened items right? So I am going to buy the regular game tonight. Then on Monday when I get my bundle I am going to take the unopend game out and use my reciept from today to get my $50 back. From all the pics I have seen the game inside the bundle looks the same as the one they sell on the shelf. So I should be able to pull it off and get what I was supposed to get in the first place!!

yeah, true story. i’d be complaining if i didn’t have one, haha.
but man, this is TEKKEN 5. :sad: i wanna do something more than look at the box and think about the features of the game.

instead i’ma be sitting in olive garden, eating some linguine or whatever, talking about the same stuff i always talk about with her, lol.

j/k j/k(i hope she doesn’t read this…)

i love you baby. :blush:

I forgot to ask for the artbook. No biggie tho’. BTW this stick is fucking sweet. Everything just does what it is supposed to. Like fucking butter. smoooooooooth. Played Tekken 5 with it :tup: Played VF4: EVO :tup: :tup: :tup: Played KOF 2002 :tup: Played 3rd strike with it :tup:

The stick itself is pretty light. The buttons feel cheap BUT are waaaaaaaayyy responsive. I mean everything from canceling attacks in VF to doing HCwhatever in SF and KOF is very smooth. So glad I got this stick :encore: :tup:

not sure if this is known or not, but during story mode the voice over actor is the same as american alucard in sotn.

Omni is like a koreanesque white guru of love. sexual white chocolate right there.

So I just got my Bundle today. And I have to save I have much respect for Game Crazy now. Not only did I get the Tekken 5 Bundle but they also had the Art book for me and a T-Shirt as well. Its was just awesome. I really cant wait to spend some time with this tonight.

Pre-Ordered the Bundle from gamestop online weeks ago. Went to my Order status page and it Says ‘Back Ordered’. Anyone else have their Gamestop order on backorder? Hope im in that 20,000 Que.
