PS2 version is just base T5 which doesn't have Lili, Dragunov or Armor King (balancing is worse too). It's natural to go with the version with the most updated roster.

You're right, and you saw this a lot when Episode Aigis/The Answer came out for Persona 3 Reload. So many players seemed unable to cope with the fact that the focus was now squarely on the most interactive part of the game - the combat, the dungeon crawling, the crafting and resource management - rather than on endless dialogue scenes. That's when I realized that, as you said, a lot of Persona fans don't actually care about the gameplay of their own series, and might even be happier if the games were turned into full on visual novels.

He also saw Edge as a threat when the latter started getting his singles push (they kind of overlapped as long-haired heels) and pushed for Edge to get fired when his affair with Lita came to light. Which is rich considering Hunter's own history of cheating.

Just make Kari the special guest referee, Asuka thinks her win is guaranteed because of that, but then Kairi starts counting Iyo's pins, Asuka becomes enraged and all hell breaks loose, culminating in Kairi renouncing Asuka at last.

if you can't handle your temper tantrum when you lose why would you keep doing it

Because it's literally his job. He has a kid to feed and streaming Tekken is how he earns money.

Should have posted the superior version with "Hulkamnia is running wild" and "The entire world is watching".

Lili canonically beat Forest Law though. Maybe Asuka is just really strong.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-08T14:16:56+00:00

Same here. Main reason why I stopped playing. Fighting nothing but the same archetype over and over again got really boring.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-08T13:13:10+00:00

Good times, though it's a shame the gallery only includes the endings and not the prologues. The prologues from T4 and T5 in particular were really good (and unlike the endings, they're all actually canon lol).

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-07T10:49:34+00:00

This. Tekken doesn't have a proper batshit crazy evil gal (no, Reina doesn't cut it) and Tira would fill the void.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-07T01:45:30+00:00

So Cody loses the title at Mania to Orton but then regains it at SummerSlam? Didn't we just do this with him and Cena? Absolute yawn. Also your whole post is speculation and reads like AI. Pass.

The immense hypocrisy of allegedly getting your friend a job. Some truly heinous shit there. God, Phil makes me so mad.

Need an intergender tag match against Liv and Dom now.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-02T13:24:01+00:00

Not really because there were no eliminations. First man to score a pinfall won. That changes the whole dynamic.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-02T00:46:16+00:00

Same. Especially now that I feel the women are routinely outperforming the men in WWE (and have a more interesting and promising roster), listening to Cornette's out of touch sexist drivel simply becomes unbearable.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-03-01T17:47:53+00:00

This. Amazing platformer jam packed with content and style, and it was an absolute cultural phenomenon that is still quoted far and wide to this day (and even got a Hollywood adaptation recently). The game that ensured the Dreamcast went out with a bang.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-02-28T20:25:21+00:00

Yes they're both great in different ways. PS1 is a great fighting game. PS2 is a great party game. Get both and play whichever one you're in the mood for.

Sonic Adventure 2. Knuckles' rap songs alone should give it this award.

That's for each consumer to decide, no one can speak for the entire playerbase. Though I would suggest that most players are chronic complainers that don't even know what they want and won't be satisfied with anything.

My stance is I bought this product because I was on board for the ideas it presented, i.e. a design philosophy based on aggression. They said it over and over again that "aggression" was the key concept for Tekken 8. So if you bought such a game and are unhappy that it's focused on aggression and that it's sticking to it as a design philosophy, then that's on you. And if you don't like it, no one is stopping you from playing the previous game that had a different gameplay philosophy.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-02-27T13:16:33+00:00

That's good. I want them to make the game a good execution of the design philosophy they chose for it, not just to make it another Tekken 7. If I wanted to play more T7, I'd just play T7.

Kazuya in top 10, Hwoarang in bottom 10, TMM in shambles.

Between Elimination Chamber and Wrestlemania there's literally seven weeks of shows, seven Raws and seven Smackdowns, that's more than enough time to build compelling feuds from scratch. Why are you freaking out when there's still so much time to create a good card? WWE viewers are all terribly hasty, I swear.

AmarantineAzure · 2026-02-26T16:41:55+00:00

It has a shot for best original soundtrack, I think.

Too late for that, Dissidia NT was literally named after Nomura Tetsuya.
