Tekken fronts up on PSP

[wraggster]

Namco has released a new trailer of Tekken: Dark Resurrection, which sees PSP as the latest venue for the Iron Fist tournament.

Out this September, the handheld beat-'em-up will offer the same sophisticated scrapping as the console versions, but for one-on-one action the ad-hoc wireless connectivity will have to be used.

The new trailer features the two new fighters to the series, Lili and Dragunov. Which is all well and good but the huge news is that Armor King is returning. Yes, the mentor of the original King and the character who was killed by vale tudo fighter Craig Marduk is back to wrestle once more. Aces!

Also seen in the trailer is a new game mode called Gold Rush which, in true bullying style, requires you to empty your opponents of money by kicking seven shades out of them. Chaining combos together will result in more coins collected.

There are also some clips of the opening FMV which sees Heihachi tearing himself from the grave. He's not a man who lies down easily.

The trailer is definately worth a watch
This looks like it will be a very cool game

It was on the tekken-offical.jp site months before, but thanks for the update

i agree the whole customize idea is awsome it means you AND your buddy can both be armor king but have a TOTAL different look

i hope this is different from the E3 one

I don't get all the hype about this. Don't get me wrong, I am a sucker for fighting games, it's my second favorite genre, FPS being first...

But Tekken series are like the skating games series. Yea, new features here and there, but when it comes down to basics, it's the same friggin game.

I bet you D, DF, F, PUNCH is going to be a special move of a character. Lol, it always is.

^_^ WITH THE NEW MODCHIP! I'LL BE ABLE TO BUY THIS UMD!

Thats the beauty of it! You know nearly all the moves because you learnt them on Street Fighter 2 in the early 90s This will just be a very pretty version

tekken is not just about pretty graphics and new features but more so about precision timing

Any idea what version firmware this will require?

[aleborri]

Firmware? latest, for sure, so count with 2.7

I wouldn't like that Tekken changed everything for every sequel, if they wanted to do so they would just create a different game altogether, like with any other sequel in every genre. To expect that a sequel of a game is completely different from the previous version is not reasonable.
