TTT Vs DOA2
Posted by @ 3:19 PM, EDT
IGN posted a huge comparison between the two fighting games.
Here’s a bit of the article:

While DOA2 is quicker in the tag department, Tekken is by no means slow. It's possibly a millisecond slower than the arcade game by the same name, which means it is a pretty damn good conversion. Strangely enough, while TTT is slightly slower with tags, Namco's game is actually superior in the juggling department, setting up a weird quandary. The fighting system is set up to greater juggle possibilities. And you can still get great juggles out of TTT's tag feature, but they could be better.

PS2 is going to kick DC's ass anyway, no matter what no matter what anyone thinks.

I think this whole concern about no anti liasing is a non issue. What is importent is the games themselves, not the jagged edges people seem to moan about. Developers are already making games that you have to really strain your eyes to see any faults in the graphics. It's not worth worrying about.

Everyone who doesn't like PSX2 tells me:
'It had a bad showing o TGS.'
I'll tell you this: It isn't all about TGS.
It's about the games that will come, not the games that are showen on a stupid show.

Phillip, I'm not too sure about that now as much as I was back when. When the PS2 first was announced, I was hyped as everyone else. But Sony has failed to impress me even in the slightest so far with their "wonder machine". Lackluster games, poor showing at the TGS, developers are saying it's extremely difficult to program for(the same with the Saturn), bugs galore. However the bugs I can forgive since it's a launch, hopefully they will be cleared up for the U.S. And also worth noting: No anti-aliasing?? Is this not built into the hardware, if it's not how the HELL was it overlooked? All I've heard is that so far it has to be programmed into the software. Hell, 2nd generation games on DC look far better than 1st gen on PS2, which shouldn't be considering the PS2's power. There's not really a "must-have" title for me except for the next MGS, and that's YEAR(s) away. I hope that when Sony raises the curtain at E3(if they do) there will be some serious *PUNCH*. If there's only TTT, RRV, Kessen, many dance games, DOA2, etc. they will be in trouble. Do I think that this is going to happen? No. However with what they've shown so far, I'm a bit worried. They are going to have to really push. Another thing I'm worried about are old rehashes of older games. I don't want Crash 6, Tekken 9, GT5, Rally cross 4, etc. We need innovation! But the one thing that Sony does have is developer support. Innovation will come with developer support. What else is needed? Thanks for letting me rant....and I don't hate the PS2.....I'm still the first one in line(if only for the DVD part), but I just find Sony's U.S. actions questionable up to this point.

The PS1 will never be forgoten for starting what we have now. It's hard to believe how underestimated PS1 was when it was first released. Now look where it is. Sony went out with force and created a monster of a product, to this day, is still a force to be reconed with.
Now we have PS2 getting ready for world domination! As far as I can tell, Sony's future is blindingly bright.

Yeah Phillip's right.Colin Mcraee 2.0 is a good example were everyone thought that GT2 pushed the PS1 limits.

Just hang in there, because the absolute best of PS2 probably won't be seen for another 4 or 5 years. Heck! developers are still pushing limitations on PS1 for heavens sake!

Perfectly put man. Specs really are irrelevant, it is the skill of the programmers that matters. Like a gas pedal in a car: useless by itself, but useful with a foot on it.

Ps2 HAS "limitless" graphics.And those games you mentioned ARE mind blowing.There are always some exceptions though.
Even if you have the most powerful console in the world with the ability of 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 polygons not just 75000000 you have to know how to use it first and take advandage of the real capabilities of the hardware.
Evergrace does not use the real power of the console.That doesnt mean that PS2 doesnt have the strongest hardware that kicks the DC specs's ass.

i did pause a game sometimes in the past too for that reason but never judged a game for not having sexy angles and shows.Or say its better than another because it has sexy girls in bikinis,minis, and shorts

The simple truth is is that sex sells. All part of marketing, pathetic as it may be. I do agree with cubby. There actually ARE people out there who pause the game just to see panty/cleavage shots. I know, because I was one of them. C'mon, you can admit it, no shame! Polyginal panties woo-hoo! However that was when I was a major geek that had not had a women yet. Uh oh, getting too personal here. Ahem.....anyways, SEX SELLS!

well, you�re sure right, but think of one thing... isn�t it nice that nina in TTT doesn�t look like a fat couch potatoe?! i think taki looked nice in SoulBlade. but as i said... you�re right when you say, it should not be that these girls are more important than gameplay!

Is this a fighting game or a fucking game you tell me. Im tired of hearing about theses women's breast and asses. Porn is not the place for fighting games. They make games for perverts in different category. I wish they would stop comparing this game to other games that can get better popularity without using sluts.

I agree with you, Cubby. They seem to be more interested in the attractive cyber fighters in DOA2 than the game itself.

Geez, do all the gaming news editors always do their thinking with their dicks? It's so damn lame. I've already seen 2 of these comparisons between Tekken Tag and DOA2 and in both of them, there's always a stupid ass category like the "Hot Chicks" category. And guess which game always wins that one? It's like since they can't find anything else that DOA2 does better than Tekken Tag, they GOTTA use that crap. Freakin get a girlfriend or something, sheesh.

When are they gonna get it into their thick ass skulls that if gamers were interested in hot chicks, they'd watch a porno or call their girlfriends over or something, not play a freakin fighting game. Let's face it, unless you have serious issues, you mainly play a fighting game to KICK ASS and talk smack to your friends when you beat 'em senseless, not watch scantily clad sluts dance around giving off panty shots left and right. These gaming news sites are really starting to lose credibility with me, not to mention respect.

They can't all be the same as the next one. Every game has it's own style of play. TTT has it's own style, as does DOA2. DOA2 will be on PS2 as well, so they bothe win.
