I wish Jun came back. She was my favorite in T2.

That's not very comforting to people just getting into the series. It's almost off-putting.

Lmao meanwhile in Europe
If they were willing to use the arcade version for EVO, a console version that's been out for a month is nothing really.

People are already good at T7. It's already an uphill battle for anyone.
LOL
How different is Namco gonna make the console version? It's not like everyone's skills from the arcade version are gonna reset once the console version comes out.

It's gotta be like 0.01 percent of US and European players.
She was basically the main heroine of Blood Vengeance? Not sure how that is funny

Heihachi and Kaz got the prime story spotlight in Tekken 4 as well but Jin was still there.
sfxt was canon though, wasn't it? Why else would Akuma be made such a vital part of the story instead of just a guest character in the game?
yeah you laughin now...just wait.

I'm so hungry for a new Tekken. This might be the first Tekken I pay full price for.
There's still DLC characters to come with the Season Pass.

ever since the game was announced for Ps4, it was known that it was going to get exclusive content. PC still gets the best performing version of the game available and xbone gets a free copy of tekken 6

Jukebox is exclusive to PS4? That should not be an exclusive feature. Fuck off.
Probably never. Do not count on those characters with stances. Like Eddy, Christie, Zafina and such. Lei is probably gonna get reworked.
Wrong and wrong.
Once again, despite the name, we are not actually getting Tekken 7. We are getting Tekken 7: Fated Retribution, the expansion of Tekken 7, just like we got T6: Bloodline Rebellion and Tekken Tag 2 Unlimited. (Home versions of the 'vanilla' games have never come out and likely never will.)
T7:FR just came out just this past July. So we are getting it less than a year later. Can people finally stop complaining that we're years behind when we're really not?
I don't think TTT2 sold very well on Wii U, which may be why there's no Switch version (yet). But granted, it suffered the same way other ports on Wii U did. Maybe they offered extra features, but they were released long after the other consoles' versions, so what did people expect...?
As someone who plans to pre-order on XB1, I'm bummed not to get those. I might have bought both the XB1 and PS4 versions if not for the season pass, but since it includes characters, I'll have to buy it. That means I'm looking at ~$180-200 if I want both versions, and I don't think I'm willing to pay that much. Sigh.
Why do you feel this way?
I thought the fact that we've only seen Jun in TTT games (which are non-canon) since T2 meant that she was dead. But you never know...

I think it includes tunes from previous Tekken games, those that were on playstation beforehand
It's because they're unpopular, not because of stances.
Look at this incredibly prominent character in the Dragon Ball story
edit: I'm laughing at the idea of making her important through marriage with the main character. It can go either way.
If I had any say on the story, I would have her becoming the heir of the Mishima Zaibatsu (turning it in an entertainment corporation and clearing its name) while Jin self exiles himself because of war crimes and people targeting his devil gene (ex: Dragunov)
No. It's because they would be hard to translate to Tekken 7. I'm pretty sure we agreed on that in the Tekken community 2 years ago?
Not seeing it anywhere yet. Hopefully if there's no physical Deluxe that the Digital Deluxe is cheaper than the game + the season pass.

I'm glad he's not tbh. Tekken has it's own identity and should be displaying it.
No, it was a stupid theory that somehow caught on and wasn't supported by any evidence or logic. All of those characters are unpopular. That's why they're currently left out. Kuma and Yoshi are also unpopular but are legacy characters who've always been in, coincidentally also with stances. Ling's there too! They'd play fine. I've been playing T7 for a while now, they'd fit without reworking.
Let me also shock you with why Wang and Roger aren't in the game...
Digital Deluxe Edition is up on PSN for $85.

Sure but does not change the fact that T6 and T6BR had noticable enough differences , besides BR being the one released on consoles .
Or that many people would not like the initial arcade version of T7 , if released as it was 2 years ago .
If bothersome , some might wanna think of it as only getting SF4 arcade edition 2013 or Ultra SF4 , without having access to the original SF4 .

Man Injustice 2 and Tekken 7 are going to make it a fighting game summer.

It's nice to finally know the release date for my most hyped game of 2015, 2016, and 2017.

That Yoda cover cracks me up to this day
Yeah, they never confirmed her death.
So? That doesn't mean they have to stay there. The X360 version of TTT2U had all of the same jukebox features and past soundtracks that the PS3 version did.
Live on Steam. $10 cheaper than console, $50/$75.

Finally, over 3 years since the PS4 released and we now finally we get a release date for Tekken 7. I love most fighting games but Tekken is the GOAT, it's the only one I can get casuals to play, even if they don't play games they can still button mash and win, and I don't think there's another mainstream fighting game with so many different characters most with unique fighting styles and movesets. I also can't believe there's no Lei Wulong, how you gonna remove Jackie Chan the greatest action star of all time from the game, and Raven is now a female character? Raven was basically Wesley Snipes as Blade, another character I really liked. Oh well, at least I'll be able to play a fighting game locally again.

If ya want to point at a dbz character made important through being a mum to a main character:
Goku's broken ass mother.

Thanks.
I don't mind getting the final complete version of the game it just sucks that's it been this long since if we use the SF that's years of not doing focus attacks, ultras, the new links, etc. you're still behind even if the latest arcade SF is only a few months ahead of the console release. I think that's what others are upset about mostly. Anyway don't mean to derail thread just happy to have a date now.
