Tekken 7

This game really makes you feel like you're playing Tekken.

Tekken/10

It lacks game modes such as team battle, tekken force etc. It loses the couch co op aspect completely. The story mode is like a depressed person talking about his life and it gets boring and irrelevant. I think that they invested so much to the online and micro transaction part that there is no fun. Really missed the character unlocks, bonus scenes from arcade new character only via tekken force completion and also picking a team of 5,6 characters and fighting against my friends jn the living room like it was in tekken 6. And i never had an online session without lag and minites of waiting

Heihachi has always been one of my favourite characters but even after playing previous titles I didn't actually know that much about him. All of my lore knowledge was from playing the games alone.

I have to say, what a great job they did with the story mode of this game. The cut-scenes and fights merge seamlessly and you really feel a part of the story. Finally understanding Heihachi's motivations was heartbreaking and the final battle with Kazuya was one of the most epic I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing.

I also loved Akuma's cameo in the story. To be honest it worked so well I hope his presence becomes canon in the Tekken universe.

The original roster had a nice selection and was fairly large. However the DLC releases did not feel in keeping with the other Tekken characters. They were either from a different IP or just a very generic character.

The gameplay mechanics were a nice evolution on previous games.

It's definitely a move away in style from previous Tekken games but I loved it. The online experience and DLC characters are not for me though.

I love tekken I've known it for a long time and all but tekken 7 no way the graphics stink and need to be fixed I don't even like the characters new outfits only the stages and noctis from Ffxv and negan from the walking dead being guest stars in tekken 7 but everything else I don't like.

The gameplay is fun and it has improved over the years and the graphics are fine (the hair looks very dated) but boy oh boy this game is underwhelming.

the story if you can call it that is very generic and if you cut the last fight between kazuya and heihachi (which was the only cool part) the story has nothing to offer compare to the previous tekken games.

remember when you played the arcade mode for example in Tekken 5 every character had one or two rivalry in the middle and by the end you would get a (mostly fun) cutscene... well forget about it here you get 5 random fights and by the end you get nothing after beating kazumi (she's also a disappointing last boss) now for the cutscenes you only need to win 1 battle with another random character and the cutscenes are very uninteresting, they're all unfunny, it's mostly someone running away from something.

as for the characters themselves why the hell lei or anna are not in the main roster? that's such a cheap move so now you have to pay for them too.

the game overall is very lackluster in its modes, customizations and story, online is fun but as for the single player the game feels really empty, no survival or team battle, after a few weeks you'll be absolutely done with this game unless you have a friend to play with.

5.5/10 easily one of the worst in the series and sadly we won't get tag tournament 3 for this generation either.
