E3 2004: Tekken 5 Checks In

Namco's fight sequel starts a massive ruck at E3. First screens!

Tekken 4 may have lost the battle of popular opinion with arch-rival Virtua Fighter 4, but Namco is stealing the lead with the fifth in the series - first shots have been shown at this week's E3 in Los Angeles.
Joining the cast this time around are serious looking martial artist Feng Wei, presumably-some-relative-of-Jin Asuka Kazama and Wesley-Snipes-in-Demolition-Man-style Raven. If you check out the screens you'll see old favourites like Paul Phoenix and Jin Kazama are still alive and kicking - apparently Heihachi Mishima is dead, but we suspect the old coot will be lurking somewhere in the shadows.
Tekken 5 is set to hit arcades this year, with console versions following in 2005. No details on what formats yet though - cross your fingers for a Soul Calibur 2-style, all-platforms release.

Screen Shots Enjoy!

It doesn't matter, you can compare Starcraft with any game and it'd still win. (H)

And I've love to see a Zealot in Tekken/MK/KOF/Soul Calibur/whatever, I mean, come on, PSI BLADES! :rockman:
