Akuma kill Heihachi?!

He can damn well try!

Just goes to show how big of a badass Heihachi actually is. Need the power of dark hadou & devil gene to stop him.

But damn, the game looks so good. DAY ONE!

Nah. Akuma won't even really need to try. Don't fool yourself into thinking that bruh. Heihachi IS WASHED UP.
 
I don't think it'll ACTUALLY be canon to the story, like how Hei wasn't actually in the SC timeline, but they just made up a nice excuse to get him there.

Regardless, Akuma looks fucking great, and I hope it's an indication of where TxSF is going.

(It probably is a teaser for that game, if you think about it.)

I was not expecting such a heavy piece of drama with Akuma's introduction. Whao.
Wonder what she did to put Akuma in personal debt?

It's the missing make up and eyes that changed her appearance.


That is vanilla Tekken 7. Her appearance have changed in Fated Retribution.

You're saying she no longer has blue eyes just from screencaps at poor angles to judge?

It looks better now but not that much better, the hair is definitely better.

But then again I've been playing vanilla since March so *shrugs*

I think that's the point? She didn't look good in vanilla Tekken 7. FR is an improvement.

I don't think it's fair to compare CG renders to in-game models..

Don't say that to me. I think she looks better in FR as well, but I do see the difference and it looks better in my opinion.

Yeah I don't know. I noticed the other guys said she had changed, and I guess I saw that too. But I do agree these are poor angles, and she might actually still have blue eyes.

I don't understand where you want to go with this comment though.

Except for Akuma/Gouki what kind of new character additions has this upgrade brought or what will it bring?

It have only brought us Akuma but more characters will be revealed later. Some of the classics are still missing, like Lee, Lei, Kuma and Nina.

This sounds amazing. I'm impressed at how Akuma still manages to retain most of his fighting style with vastly different mechanics, unlike the Tekken characters in SFXT. The graphics do look significantly better too.

The vanilla game looks great in person, I don't understand most of the complaints graphically unless they're related to hair.

FR looks even better now, but it doesn't look that much better like what others are calling it to be. That's all I'm saying.

But I'm judging a streamed trailer and comparing it to what I've already played.

It's me or Lili's face become worse? Ok she looks older but now she looks more generic and a straight good girl, in the past her face was slightly more particular and reflected her personality more imo.
Yeah, Lili's face is looking weird to me too, especially in that GIF. She looks quite different, and dare I say it, almost like a doll. Oh, well, I think her Tekken 6 look is still the best so far (aesthetically).

So bummed out that akuma isn't in SFV, but having him in a new tekken should make up for it, the dude looks awesome. Let's see if I can remember my raging demon!

Cool cool. I also appreciate what you bring to our community thread, so thanks for that as well. :)
 
This i so cool. Can't wait for Tekken x SF

Funny Marvel vs. Capcom basically started with Akuma as a secret character in X-Men Children of the Atom.

Keep telling yourself that~

Heihachi has two things on his side - DETERMINATION & THE POWER OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT.

All of his family possesses the Devil Gene and they can't take him down. He's the peak of what humanity can accomplish with hard work~

At least tekken will have Akuma though....
Can't say the same for street fighter 3 , err 5
Was that supposed to be an insult? And even then, if no Akuma means we can get the likes of Karin, Rainbow Mika, Alex, & Urien back, I'll gladly wait until 2017 for Akuma. Besides, Street Fighter V has enough photos for the first 22 characters. Let Akuma take his talents elsewhere for a bit & usher in Tekken x Street Fighter like he did for Marvel vs. Capcom.
 
lol this feels like when your favourite footballer players transfers to the rival club xD

Akuma i will follow you wherever youre going

Tekken and Street Fighter Must HAVE !

LMAOO! They dont need to take down someone who is irrelevant. He is a HAS BEEN. He hasnt been relevant since TEKKEN 2. FACE IT. HE's WASHED UP.

Jin was about to X him out by tekken 3. HE LET HIM LIVE! Jin's momma had to come back from the grave to save Hei's ass in T4 as well lmao!
