Another Tekken game?? Don't worry, there's only one left after this

54. Tekken Tag Tournament (2) (PlayStation 2/3)

I'm lumping together both of them. Tekken Tag Tournaments 1 and 2 are about beating up your opponent in some time paradox where there dead are brought back to life and a 40-50 year old Michelle looks like she's 17. Also, does it bother anyone else that she supposedly adopted Julia but Julia looks JUST LIKE HER?! What are the chances she adopted her clone now really. Anyways I'm getting off topic. Michelle is pretty cool regardless.


In Tekken Tag Tournament you pick two characters and you swap between them while beating up another tag team. Some health will recover on the one not currently fighting depending on the damage bar. It fights like all Tekken games where the buttons correspond to different limbs. It also has large amounts of characters from the entire series, so even if your favourite was killed off, you can use them in the Tag games.


I like both games a lot and my favourite part is having pretty much all of the characters available. There's so many to choose from and you can use two at once, which is fun. Tag 2 is pretty much an improvement on Tag in every way, but I have a few issues with it. I feel like the sexualization is starting to get over the top, and not just for characters like Anna where I expect it, and the customization system is a really big step down from 6, in my opinion, which was disappointing because it was one of the things I was looking forward to most. But aside from that they are both incredibly fun games and I really enjoy them. Especially since the first one had bowling at that was incredibly fun!

Favourite character: Lili sM1UJIs.png
Honourable mentions: Xiaoyu, Anna, Jun ZL49LVy.jpg5K10BYG.jpgGav3Ij2.jpg


Lili has dethroned Xiaoyu has my favourite Tekken character since Tekken 6. I just enjoy using her more. But Xiaoyu is still really up there and I like how quick and agile she is. Anna and Jun return as favourites for the reasons I listed in my Tekken 2 review. I like Jun almost purely out of nostalgia though because I don't click that well with her fighting style.
