Tekken Tag Tournament 2 review: Bear punching at its very finest

You guys remember in Adventure Time, when Jake the Dog takes all the good food in the world, wraps it up in a giant tortilla and makes the Everything Burrito? That’s what Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is like, and it’s delicious. Everything that’s ever been good about Tekken is in here, from its surprisingly deep, accessible gameplay mechanics to its bombastic and hilarious attitude – all presented in a package more polished and refined than ever before.

By sticking with the same ideas that have driven this series for the last 18 years, rather than attempting to reinvent the series or fighting games as a genre, Namco Bandai has produced the best, most complete Tekken there’s ever been. It has also, perhaps inadvertently, published a dissertation on how to design an incredibly solid, full-featured fighting game.Gallery: Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (E3 2012)Continue reading Tekken Tag Tournament 2 review: Bear punching at its very finestTekken Tag Tournament 2 review: Bear punching at its very finest originally appeared on Joystiq on Tue, 11 Sep 2012 12:00:00 EST.
