Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loving it!
I used to have Tekken 5 on my PS2, but decided to sell it. I got my money all back from the purchase price, but my bro got me a PSP. Once I got this, it was just like playing it on the PS2....only better. It's portable and I can get some action on lunch break in that action. A good 20 minutes gameplay then a walk outside. It fits perfectly in my day.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Tekken 5+
This is a near exact port of Tekken 5 for the PS2. It's fun, it's entertaining, and it's easy to pick up anywhere. There are a few draw-backs, though.

The story-mode is the exact same thing as Tekken 5, with the addition of the new characters. If you've completed the story for a character on 5 for the PS2, you'll have to re-hear the whole thing. Which just isn't that much fun.

They also dumbed-down the final boss. In 5, it took me about ten minutes to get the hang of how to kill him, an in the mean-time, I had lost twice. In this game, if you lose to Jinpatchi, I don't know what to say to you. He's horribly under-powered, and hardly worth everything you've gone through to get to him.

The "Ad-Hoc" mode is fun. But the wait times are NOT. My brother owns a PSP as well, and he does not have this game. We decided to test how well we could play against each other, so I "sent" the game to him via "Ad-Hoc" and waited. And waited. And waited. We were sitting less than two feet away from each other, and it took five minutes to get one match going. After I'd beaten him he wanted another match, and so we had to wait another five minutes for it to transfer.

The customization in Dark Resurrection is fun. Every character has new hats/accessories/auras and colors that they can use. There are also multiple costumes for each character, though I haven't unlocked them yet. The arcade mode is a little repetitive, though fun if you're just looking to button-mash for no reason.

Easy to beat, but well worth the money, Dark Resurrection is for any Tekken fan.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great, but...
Yes, this is a good game for the PSP and I will not repeat all the good things that have been described in the previous reviews. However, this is not a perfect game and some issues remain:
The first one is inherent to the PSP joystick, it is very difficult on a PSP to do a diagonal. And Diagonals are very important in Tekken: you have moves that include diagonals and often you cannot do them; the timing to press 2 buttons at the same time is very, very difficult to get and it seems more often than not that it is just luck.
The second issue is related to on-line tournaments: you can register for a tournament only if you were able to perform 10 move combinations, and guess what? These combinations include diagonales... So far I was not able to compete against others and this is saaaad...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best PSP Title
I think this game is the best psp game made. the graghics the the psp pushes in ths game is incredible. control is perfect.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the best Psp titles
Excellent game. This has to be one of the best Psp titles out there. The graphics are great and there are plenty of options and side games to keep fighting game fans occupied for years. The game features a well rounded character roster along with ALL of the character's moves. I'm impressed they were actually able to fit so much into this game. The only negative I have with this game is not just for this game but for the whole tekken series; Unlike a street fighter type of game, in order to master a characters moves, you have to dedicate yourself to memorizing 100's of combinations and techniques. Sometimes you just want to pick up a game and mindlessly play. But if you enjoy the challenge and art of playing fighting games, this is a great game. It will challenge you for years.
