PSX Longplay [051] Tekken 2

its hard to watch this without tearing up or feeling depressed. i miss the good old psx days.

Ebay, retro game conventions, and Family owned Game stores are your best friends. These games are still out there to relive

[@bowserkiller1997]

look it up not on ps4 lol

[@travro2525]

Soundtrack in this game was so excellent

[@Enlightenment909]

Travro This was a time when they actually gave a damn about the soundtrack

[@Zontar82]

up to tekken 4 ,they still gave a damn.starting from tekken 5,it was all downhill from there

[@BeretBay]

@@Enlightenment909 "Emotionless Passion" Wow, never again will we have a story told with just a title and soundtrack.

[@venom74799]

I think that’s why I never got into the other Tekkens after part 4. The music always pumped me up and made me in tune with the fighting mechanics. Now it’s just a bunch of generic clicks and whistles.

[@TubeOfLaughes]

@@venom74799 Tag Tournament 2 had some pretty awesome music imo.

[@christianvega12341]

20 years later and still one of the best tekken game I have ever play. was my first game on my ps1.

[@gabrieljosezambrano8648]

for me the best is tekken 3 and 5

[@arp_909]

This and Tekken Tag are the best for me

[@88omair]

The music was gorgeous on this one

[@starentertainment-n4l]

it was the heart and soul of the game, while the fighting was the body of it, and cutscenes were the mind.

[@raijinthemaster88]

Tekken 3 had much better music than any of them. Tekken 3 to this very day outshines all Tekken games in terms of music choice, everyone had a catchy stage theme.

[@am_pm.17]

@@raijinthemaster88 Strong disagree. Tekken 3 was overly energetic and lacked the soul that Tekken 2 had.

[@vald3m845]

the Arcade version has some of the most iconic soundtracks of all time!

[@Amdecreations.]

@@raijinthemaster88Tekken 3 had better gameplay mechanics, music was great too, but not on the level of Tekken 2. Tekken 2 in the different stages and location, you could hear the traditional music blended in with the modern music, that was mostly lost in Tekken 3.

[@aimfuldrifter]

The best Tekken in the series, hands down. It had everything at peak level in its time - very good graphics, awesome soundtrack, cool intro, believable stories, amazing animation, great design and addictive gameplay. It's in the top 5 on my list of the best fighting games ever.

[@aimfuldrifter]

And unlike in most fighting games - here you have a great balance within characters. Every character is interesting and you can win with anyone despite the char you have chosen :) That's very rare.

[@pablolamatafeliz6443]

LukeInside in my opinion the best tekken was tekken tag 1 but i really enjoyed 2 aswell,for some reason i find tekken 3 not as good

[@ps-lover8380]

Yeah this and 3 are Awsome

[@Walking-MY-Path]

To me personally Tekken 3 and 5 were the best.

[@JophisJoe]

3 is best for actual gameplay in my opinion, really tight controls. but 2 for pure nostalgia was my first game ever

[@cardigansarecool]

man when you're a kid you don't realize quite how fantastic the music is

[@SHINBAXTER]

I DID. WAS THE ONLY THING I LIKED ABOUT IT LOL =)

[@BiryaniLover365]

That's what I love about being an adult now, as a 90s kid I didn't have the capacity to notice the nuances of the games I played at the time. Now I appreciate everything: the music, the voice actors, the character designs and details and etc. 🧐

[@Wolfdragon92584]

Probably my favorite in the series. Definitely the best music. The bosses and secret characters were also primo.

[@briyva]

Man, I freaking love this game.

[@devilgirl7054]

Ew

[@StavrosSkunk]

The one, the made me fall in love with the Tekken series.

[@SevenFootPelican]

The stages in Tekken 1, Tekken 2, and Tekken 3 were gorgeous. They had so much depth and obscurity to them

[@sumomoogleadventure]

This is my favorite videogame ever! I have played this game countless hours, learning all the combos for each character in practice mode. I played this game so much that when I play it sometimes it glitches out, for some weird reason haha

[@KaizerNYC]

I used to love this game when I was a little kid. I remember being mad hyped when my mom got Tekken 3 for me for Christmas. I think I snuck and found out before Christmas hahaha and tried to act all surprised like I just found out on Christmas. Kazuya was cool as hell, how he could turn into devil Kazuya and everything. I keep forgetting this was what got me into Tekken before Tekken 3... When Paul was still young. Good memories..

[@kookiemonster3126]

I love this game so many memories

[@mopedroller]

The Intro man, best video game intro I've ever seen.

[@snazy7777]

Kazuya was at his finest in this game, The combat sounds and the music brings back so many fond memories. Im sure he was the only player that could side step and counter.

[@morgulstower5839]

Yeah, it was a special move he had called the "Mist Step"

[@georget10i]

The first time I saw a PlayStation, TEKKEN 2 was playing, I was BLOWN AWAY by the graphics. Maybe I just grew up but nowadays no matter how good a game looks, like Crysis, etc... they just don't have that shock and awe effect on me, the leap from 8-bit to 16-bit and then to 32-bit was crazy!

[@paulerlingheuser8453]

Was that at KB toys with the demo of this and crash bandicoot on it. They had that demo CD every where ,why I got ps1

[@losfer2]

Beautiful game! still in this times!

[@TheJds1993]

This was my favorite of them all. The action the music the them it's just amazing. It brings back memories I was a little boy when this came out and I'm 30 now. I was like a toddler when this came out. I didn't start playing games until I was 4

[@layz_her2673]

this brings back so many childhood memories of owning with baek its insane EDIT: the music is soo soo good

[@danielsan2142]

My all-time favorite 3D fighting game with one of the best soundtracks ever. This game is a masterpiece!

[@ryoukanzato]

the character select music is awesome i miss the old tekken days especially tekken 3

[@nicopingui21]

The music themes of this game should be recognized by unesco as a global heritage

[@egonjensen6506]

I will always love Tekken 2 over 3 for a number of reasons: 1) Kazuya, Jun, Devil, Bruce, Michelle, Kinimitsu, Lee, Baek; Wang and P.Jack were interesting characters and were sadly abandoned in tekken 3 2) epic intro with beautiful music. The intro and ''plot'' of Kazuya holding the tournament and having the devil as his alter ego is fascinating. 3) Kazuya and Devil make the best bosses in the Tekken series. 4)The dark stages in which one fights Kazuya and Devil, KAZUYA'S THEME is the best theme in the Tekken series and deserve to be mentioned as a separate asset. 5) Other soundtracks like Paul's, Nina's, Heihachi's, Jun's, King's , Michelle's mark the end of a certain era. They bring the player to the 80s and early 90s. Heihachi's and Kazuya's themes reflect the Japanese Martial arts culture from distant past. By contrast , the sountrack in Tekken 3 is completely modern. 6) Characters like Kunimitsu and Ganruy( kind of Ninja and Sumo respectively) also represent the Japanese past and contribution to martial arts 7) the level of difficulty is just right. It is demanding. By contrast Tekken 3 is too easy. While beating devil was difficult at hard, the Ogre in Tekken 3 is a joke. 8) The game is slightly slower than other installments. Tekken 4 is my second favorite but 5,6 etc are too quick, contain too many juggles, too many flashing lights, explosions when hitting an opponent and leave no time to think about what to do next. You just press whatever. 9)in T2 each character has its subboss and you can't unlock a given charcter with just any fighter. This way one can't unlock all characters with just one fighter like in all other Tekkens. 10)Finally, the pace, soundtracks and overall atmoshpere make it my favorite If they only made the characters stand up 0,5 second quicker, the game would be almost perfect. I regret that the ending animations are silly and dont tell us anything about the characters like they do in Tekken 4 Overall, I regret that they didn't make a remake of this game with solid story mode and separate arcade mode. If they updated the graphics, command lists, mechanics, made it 3D, introduced sidestepping but kept the music and Kazuya's stage- it should make a Hit.

[@nintendodreamer1515]

+Egon Jensen I couldn't agree more. Tekken 2 is best 3D fighter ever.

[@egonjensen6506]

Tobakilacion maybe a little , but no other Tekken could create half as good music and atmospehere (stages, especially Kazuya's and Devil's) It has a sentimental value for me. I played it when I was like 8 or 9. I wish they made a remake of this game with the same soundtrack. PS: In tekken 5 they gave Kazuya his purple tuxedo from T2 but even here they fucked it up giving him gloves, stupid vest and coattails. Tekken 2 was admittedly a bit too slow but from Tekken 6 onwards it's too fast, too chaotic, too many Dragon Ball-like small exlposions, flashes and endless juggling the opponent in the air like a light pillow. In T2,3,4,5 at least you had some time to execute throws. Now it's 5 seconds and the round is over. Not much fun. Tekken 3 that receives so much praize has done shitty job with resigning from the solution from the previous installment: in T2 every character had their exclussive opponent before fighting Kazuya and there was no way one could unlock a given character except with one specific character e.g armor king with king.

[@Zontar82]

this,my friend.all of this

[@Zontar82]

again,this.on and those fucking juggles

[@milton4516]

Tekken 2 is a masterpiece. I agree.

[@MarcelyWelly]

I like the soumdtrack for each character in the stages

[@VoxAcies]

Damn this music brings back memories...

[@Buennyo]

Why is this intro so iconic and a masterpiece? Tekken 2 was the best Tekken!

[@BboyFiZiX]

this intro is one of the finest in recent memory and we all remember that time we stayed up all night drinking apple schnapps and playing tekken 2 ;)

[@Rakiarmas]

Man Tekken 2 was awesome game back then. I remember that me & my sisters, brother & friends played the demo alot when we got it. Now I own full version and I'm so happy to have it. Long live Tekken, King of Iron Fist.

[@houstone832jr]

[@BexChilledOrange]

[@cblittle957]

paul & kazuya's levels always had my favorite music.

[@MrTHEMONEEMAKER]

+cb little Lei and Roger/Alex for me

[@Federalism24]

Aside from the great gameplay, what helped to make Tekken 2 so epic was the soundtrack. The music here is unforgettable. As a game, Tekken 3 gets hyped as the best in the franchise, but to me Tekken 2 is the best game. Classic.

[@HayabusaAlpitan]

I feel the nostalgia back then when I see this gold old days

[@PetterNe]

The atmosphere in this game is just so incredibly fucking good. Surreal.

[@javierharo2648]

Great story, awesome videos, haunting music and fantastic gameplay. A classic.

I use to play the shit out of this game in my primary school years.

[@deontemerritt91]

yobaseen21 yeah during my school years when Tekken 2 came out in 1996 I was elementary when had the demo not the full game of Tekken 2 just a demo for Playstation good old times.

[@jdawg86]

Love that intro

[@deontemerritt91]

My childhood I can't wait to play this on my Android and Laptop computer the good old days and history of video gaming.

[@launch4]

I only ever played it on the Demo 1 disc but the intro for Tekken 2 has got to be the most manly and badass intro to any game ever created. I dare anyone to find a better one.

[@losfer2]

soul blade (calibur) was a awesome intro too, but they are the same company, same designers back in that time, i wonder where are they

[@billybobble9111]

This game is nearly 20 years old my gawd and it still looks amazing, my fav char is Lei, I remember as a kid you could button mash the crap with him and magic would happen. I remember the really hard fight were you would be sweating so much heart racing and you had to grind a win (crouching and single kicks) Also the little hidden things if you won against roger by a tiny amount you could unlock him and couldnt you fight against angel aswell

[@kookiemonster3126]

Ikr lol mine is yoshimitshu and king id always button mash the crap out of the buttons with them it was so fun but then you know i was a kid and thats wat some kids do in fighting games they button mash

[@callumr3554]

Nearly 30 years old now

[@joachimbucherer5030]

Nostalgia invades my body and it feels like yesterday.

[@simasboykgaming]

1st game i've ever played on a psx. mind was blowned all over the place

[@thomasbeall9069]

I loved it in arcade and didn’t know what psx was. Found out it was a console, though I was going to get a N64 knowing I could do tekken at home was a no braIner. When I seen it had fmv opening that the arcade didn’t I lost it. I was so use to console games being lesser than the arcade. I had N64 and psx, soon came FFVII, Resident Evil, Synphony of the Night etc. N64 was great too but I didn’t see PlayStation coming and play those Games to this day. Thank Tekken 2 for this.

[@march2fuzz]

used to play this for HOURS, man these are good memories

[@Dre_aka_sleepysandman]

Man...me and my friends use to play this and VF2 all the time. I forgot how good the themes was back then too. Good days, good days.

[@popcornflakes1788]

Music of this game are so much nostalgic to my ears , probably the best tekken soundtracks of the serie to me.

[@MohammadIrfanAnsari]

Bring those days back!😢😢

[@grits011]

Everytime I go to the beach the Fiji theme plays in my head lol

I always found Yoshimitsu's voice kinda funny in Tekken 2; he's supposed to be this super-old robo-ninja from space or whatever, and yet he sounds like a 17-year-old jock.

This has to be a direct arcade port. I have the arcade version of this and they look, sound and play IDENTICAL to each other; (well maybe the arcade is just a HAIR smoother) which is very impressive for the playstation. Nice upload.

remembering the devil now, thought I didnt play 2, thx

[@Shintigercurl]

THANKS especially for fighting paul. i love his stage theme.

[@KombatGod]

It's funny that a lot of people started playing Tekken with Tekken 3, therefore some of them (likely skipping Tekken Tag) were convinced that Lee and Kazuya were new characters in Tekken 4, Wang, Ganryu and Baek were new characters in Tekken 5 and so on. Seriously, I've seen minds blow from discovering that Lee was in every single Tekken game, beside Tekken 3.

[@thomasbeall9069]

Largely those characters returned because of good response they got in Tag

[@KombatGod]

@@thomasbeall9069 True, especially Lee who if I remember correctly was a semi-clone fighter sampling moves from Kazuya and Law, but got a well defined moveset and personality in Tag.

[@thepulseman7154]

Man it still impresses me to this day how much the PSX could do with it's puny 512 kb of audio-dedicated RAM, the sound quality on those voice clips is actually beyond arcade perfect (especially striking on some specific characters such as Jun, for whatever reason). In fact, though it would pale in comparison to the Saturn especially on 2d games, it would more often than not restitute voices and sfx with higher fidelity to the arcade version, though not quite as well as it does here. Examples include Street fighter Alpha 1, 2 and 2 Gold; KOF 96 and 97, Dompachi, and probably others I forgot. Saturn would win through and throughhowever with a 4 mb ram expansion or a ROM cartridge (not sure how that one makes that much of a diffference), but KOF 95 does sound arcade perfect on the Saturn).

[@IIRockstarrxX]

OH MY NOSTALGIA!

Hi from 2017 Just came here to say that Armour King does a curtsy at 1:24 and that the cutscenes in this game will scar you. Have a good day
