Few games on this Earth have the instant-appeal and nostalgic brain-tingle of Tekken - the series is one of the most successful gaming franchises of all time, and with 41 million copies in the bank it's pretty much the only other franchise alongside Street Fighter that springs to mind when thinking of fighting games (although we've got you covered if you just thought of Mortal Kombat too). With a completely bonkers anime story that's so ludicrous you just have to love it, the past entries have seen everything from demonic great-grandfathers coming back from the grave to tiny orange dinosaurs and even overly-flatulent scientists all taking part in The King Of Iron Fist Tournaments, but even that is not where the appeal lies, although it's certainly a large part of it. No, Tekken would not have maintained it's stature on the top pedestal if not for one of the most accessible-yet-deep gameplay systems in all fighting games, comprised of every major martial art under the sun. It's a system that's become to be known as a game having 'Tekken controls' whereby you have two dedicated punch and kick buttons, along with combinations of them producing throws and other special moves. Many gamers remember their first Tekken experience, as well as discovering one of your friends was one of "those people" who'll button-bashed their way through every fight as Eddie Gordo. Yeah, you know who you are. Over the years the series has never really dipped or had a particularly bad title, and so it's with a huge fan fervour that with Tekken 7 the hype machines are kicking into overdrive. With nothing confirmed and everything up for grabs, what do you want to see in the new game?
