TTT 2

itchin' (for tekken). that's what i felt after i saw the trailer for tekken tag tournament 2. so the dust flew off my neglected ps2 (my psp has been indisposed for quite sometime now) and controller for some much needed tekken rounds.



the trailer was a christmas gift from tekken's creator harada. but... TTT 2 won't come til mid 2011. can't wait!

and oh, guess who this guy is. >:) he'll be coming back to TTT 2 with all of the rest of the T6:BR characters along with new (jaycee) and not so new (jinpachi) characters.

p.s. bonus!

tekken kaching

aside from having jaw-dropping graphics and a robust selection of characters paired with a solid fighting system, tekken 6: bloodline rebellion's appeal for me also lies in customizing the characters. you can turn your stock miguel into a rambo look alike or make kuma/panda a tutu-wearing-monster-ballerina or lili into a succulent succubus reminiscent of morrigan from darkstalkers. the possibilities are only limited by your imagination, the available costumes and money. that's right, money. tekken money that is. hehe.

tekken money is earned in various ways but ultimately you just have to win matches to gain some dough. it's a pain since you only gain as much as 30000++ per fight win and you actually need tons and tons of cash to purchase a costume! but there's a much easier way to become a tekken millionaire. and that is through exploiting the new and improved tekken roulette system. (i really don't get it why namco decided to call it roulette when it is more of a slot machine. ehe.)

here's how,

1. first go to options and turn off auto save.
2. go to ghost battle and pick your a character.
3. play. play. play. but be sure to be on the look out for the sign* that you have a tekken roulette.
4. once you see the sign, pause the game, exit to the main menu and save your data.
5. now that we have a single roulette we want that lone roulette to grow in number. and that is through accessing super roulette**. super roulettes are gained by getting a lucky slot on the third wheel of the roulette. there's no skill involved here only luck. if you don't get lucky just load your data until you do.
6. once you get lucky, exit to the main menu and again save your data.
7. wash lather rinse repeat.

*the sign: it appears at the upper left of the screen. it kinda looks like a red police siren is highlighting the battle count and the running time you've been playing. also the sign appears on the tenth battle if you picked a new character.

**super roulette: this is an additional roulette wherin you net additional roulettes when three rush slots are alligned either horizontaly or diagonally. rage effects are also attained here.

i'm playing t6:br on my psp and i'd bet that the above method will work on the ps3 and xbox. now go out and pimp your tekken 6 character.

  • thanks to all the sponsors especially to timezone!

celebrity players

i caught this chika minute feature on ely a while ago when i was watching the news. he was spotted on cinemanila's opening along with marcus and i think jerome velasco, also a previous bandmate from the mongols. nothing news worthy about the bit. same old thing. he's fine now and will be giging with pupil by next week. and yes, still nothing on another eraserheads reunion concert.

after the screening ely and jerome played tekken 6 at timezone. yeboi! he was using law. masher. hehe. although it was cool to see him play.

~~~

i should be a carrier of the-i-don't-care-what-happens-to-angel-locsin's-career-virus after that very short stint working for gma but alas after reading this article on maxim's may 2008 issue, and i quote,

"MAXIM: since you're a homebody, do you play a lot of videogames?
ANGEL: i used to play a lot before. usually i just play TEKKEN a lot. I was so addicted to it."

i think that i love her even more. hehe.

back in college when we were still addicted to TTT there was this rumor circulating that tom taus (oo, si cedie, ang munting prinsipe) was the champion of a tournament that was held in greenhills. if my memory serves me right his character was yoshi and bruce. (yeah celsus mode.) (tama ba ang pagkaalala ko niks?)

safina: can you say "yoga fire!" reminds me of voldo from the soul caliber series. she's creepy.

projectile attacks: hadouken! hadouken! bruce will then probably say... tiger! hehe. :P i hope projectile attacks in tekken 6 won't imbalance the game.
