Ranked as one of the Best Video Game of the 90s, Tekken's second sequel matched all the beats its predecessors were aiming for - and then outdid them in every respect. Combat was faster, tighter and more fleshed out, and the roster was also expanded to include everything from series' stalwarts Heihachi and Law to newcomers Jin, Hwoarang, a tiny dinosaur and a farting old man. Because, Japan. To this day T3 is one of the most feature complete of the entire franchise, mixing the immortal one-on-one fighting gameplay with the Streets of Rage-style Tekken Force, and even a beach volleyball mode, Tekken Ball. Namco really did throw the kitchen sink at this release, and irrespective of if you play it now or did at the time, will leave a mark on you as an exemplary release.
