yay i got it. cant wait to fucking play this shit down.
Just got the game an hour ago.
I still can’t believe EB tried to charge me for the art book a couple of days ago.
I had it since wensday morning;(
I got mine today with an artbook… not bad. I’m pretty happy with it. I might mod it later on, after some people do it and tell me how they did it.
god u guys are making me jealous… :sad: didn’t pre order bundle…probably won’t be able to get game for a few more days :sad:
Well, I got my Monday on Thursday, and the joystick does kick ass, but sadly, the artbook won’t be in for me until this Monday, curious, what’s in the artbook, is it all previous Tekken artworks, and Tekken 5 artwork, because some of the artwork in the game of T5 is pretty damn sweet, just curious though;)
Ps: The rocks, but Jin sucks like balls in here…seriously, it’s cool to nerf the fool from T4, but he’s a freakin joke in T5…unless I don’t know how to play him right.
I’m kickin’ ass with Jin. Of course, I’m not playin’ any human opponents, but I don’t think he’s been nerfed too much.
I think some people on TZ were sayin’ he doesn’t have as many high priority pokes. His 2-1 is still strong, but I don’t think it’s quite the same as it was in Tekken 4.
[EDIT] - BTW, Kazuya’s new body blows look brutal.
I can’t wait to play this game. I don’t even have a ps2, but a buddy of mine does, and he pre-ordered the bundle from EB. He’s going to pick it up tomorrow while I’m at work, and then hopefully tomorrow night it’ll be all about the Tekken 5.
I’m curious to both check out the stick and see how Jin plays now. I’ve been curious about the changes Namco did on Jin for awhile now, but I could never find too much info. Hopefully I’ll be able to do a little first hand research tomorrow. :tup:
Seriously, Jin does suck, I mean, he should be toned down, but he’s just a real joke. He no longer has his JFLS, which is what broke him, along with another whole glope of moves, but his new scraper or whatever the hell is called blows, his parry is kinda…useless, I mean, nerf the thing, but damn, I parry everything, and I can barely capitalize on my parries, which is ridiculous, plus his he doesn’t really have any safe launchers, or at least, none that I know of, the only ones that I know are
f, d.f, d, d.f+1
from neutral crouch stance to 2
d+3+4
d+3+4 is pretty good as a launcher, but it’s rather unsafe to use as a launcher all the time, his 1st launcher that I posted is probably his “ideal” launcher, but it’s slow, and people can see it comming, his 2nd launcher, again from what I posted isn’t bad, it comes out quick, however to me, it seem’s rather situational, so you really can’t depend on it. I just wished he would’ve gotten some nicer launchers for him in T5, he got anal raped too well in T5.
I GOT THE BUNDLE PACK!!! IT’S AWESOME, and for those wondering about the stick…IT’S AWESOME, I can do everything I did in the arcade and it feels just as good as my RAP so no worrying bout the stick
Hei’s 2,2~1+2… then f,f+2 or run up and d+4…
That > all
I wouldn’t say it costs $150, it’s $70 and shipping on import sites
i got it today. this game is crack. r the characters unlocked in order? or does it depend on who you beat it with?
for example i beat it with raven and got rogder jr.
yoshimitu and got bruce
feng and got nina
mardok and baek
also how do i change my name? it still says unknown beginner -_-
dude let me tell you jin does not suck. he’s not broken and he doesnt have an 8 frame jab you can just throw out, but he’s far from shit.
cd+4, free d/b+2,2,3. cd+1, b,f+2,1 d/b+2,2,3. get someone to a wall, 1,3,2,1,4. lets not forget 2,4. he’s got the tools he just can’t be played like a douche like tekken 4 jin.
damn this game is fucking awesome. worth the price and a good break from 3s.
Well, the HRAP on lik-sang.com is $79, and shipping is $50, so it’s ~$130 total. Other places have cheaper shipping, but the price of the stick is higher, so give-and-take here.
you are my hero, I knew I had heard that voice from somewhere, but I just could’nt figure it out. For a while, I thought it was the same guy that played raiden from the second mortal kombat movie…heh
anyways, has anyone figured out how to rank up besides playing arcade mode all day??? I played my characters on another friends file, and are characters customizations uploaded just fine, but nither of us could get a random promotion chance. so is it just arcade mode, or what???
and the artbook is just fine, I expected less honestly, but I really like the kunimitsu artwork that’s towards the back of the book
:tup:
Sorry to burst some bubbles,
but if you look in the Hardware Discussion, some, if not a lot, of the joysticks are coming with complete plastic joysticks as opposed to the sanwa-clone sticks.

either you got the tight shit, or the wack shit
Uh, sorry to burst your bubble, but all of the T5 sticks come stock with Hori sticks. The stick featured in the second picture is armad1ll0’s Sanwa swap.
