Print out a coupon for 30 dollars off Tekken 6 and if not a Best Buy Reward Zone member, just sign up real quick. Then take coupon to best buy. Game seems to ring up as 29.99 actually and some people actually got copies for free with the coupon. But the manager will probably be called over and override it to 9.99 per the coupon.

I haven't played 6 but Tekken is fun. Fuck the haters. worth 10 bucks for sure IMO.

Target here had it on clearance for $10 as well, YMMV on that though.

PS. I wouldn't buy it anyway

The Tekken Force mode will still piss you off due it's broken mechanics. It amazes me that the same development team made the perfect 3D beat 'em up engine for Urban Reign but fails every single time they try to implement one in Tekken.

You can get this for $7 at TRU, btw.

I really have to play through this shit? It's so awkward. They could've at least tried to make it like Fighting Force or something.

You don't ever have to play it if you don't want to. It's got no connection to the main game, although there are some levels you can grind for fast money/items.

I will this week. The wife and I played last night and did shots every time we lost. She kicked my ass. But it was fun. It's no virtua fighter or even doa but its simple and easy to pick up.

Turns out you can only play 10 levels on co-op... the offline mode is completely different.

Yeah, the online co-op mode was patched in some months after the game's release, and turned out to be pretty short. It can be pretty challenging on hard, however. You really need to have the right items equipped.

demi · « **Reply #20 on:** August 22, 2010, 09:26:08 PM »

It helped out though, I'm using the beefed up items on the regular playthrough. Enemies are dying in 1 hit... and I'm pretty sure it's not on Easy.

bork · « **Reply #21 on:** August 22, 2010, 09:47:18 PM »

Oh, definitely. Should give you a nice boost to plow through that mode. Although it won't really start to be challenging until maybe around the G-Corporation areas. There's a level called "Nightmare Train" that's the hardest, but I think you have to clear the story mode once and play on a harder difficulty to access it.

Never did finish the story mode. Lost interest after I just grinded a bit to get some money and custom parts to use towards character customization for the regular game.

demi · « **Reply #22 on:** August 22, 2010, 10:36:23 PM »

All fighting games need a mode like this. Tekken raises the bar so high it's almost unreachable.

bork · « **Reply #23 on:** August 22, 2010, 10:53:18 PM »

They always put some cool extras in Tekken games, that's for sure.

iconoclast · « **Reply #24 on:** August 22, 2010, 11:10:07 PM »

I kinda liked the Scenario Campaign mode at first. I played through the whole thing, and while I wouldn't call it good by any stretch, it was at least somewhat entertaining. Then I tried to play it again like a week ago and wooooow I hated it. Never touching that again unless I need to grind some gold.

I just need to unlock all of the endings and then I can just stick to multiplayer for good.

I've been playing through the campaign mode a lot today. Easy achievements indeed. It's not as horrible as I originally thought, but I still don't think Tekken's fighting system fits this mode.

demi · « **Reply #29 on:** August 23, 2010, 05:36:44 PM »

Pick someone who is easy to use. I use Hwoarang

Beezy · « **Reply #30 on:** August 23, 2010, 05:47:46 PM »

I'm still using this Lars douchebag. The game got a bit harder once, so I put on new shit for stat boosts and I've been fine ever since. I already beat old man Heihachi.

demi · « **Reply #31 on:** August 23, 2010, 05:48:55 PM »

You do know you arent forced to use Lars since the tutorial? Thats probably why you hate it... Lars is clunky. Use someone fast like Hwoarang or Lee.

You werent kidding lyte. Nightmare Train is

Course it doenst help that I didnt get -one- single health drop for Alisa during my Campaign run... so gay. I am farming on some levels on Hard hoping for some A-S drops. It is the last level I need to finish too. I read that if you sit in a corner and wait until 100 seconds, Jin appears so I could try that approach.

Or I could try playing as Alisa and use her rocket punch.

Beezy · « **Reply #34 on:** August 24, 2010, 12:30:59 PM »

I finished the scenario mode last night. Smh at the story in this game.

I just have to do the hidden stages now. I also almost won a player match online by mashing the kick buttons with Christie, but I somehow choked in the final round.

I still don't understand the weird ass fighting system in this game...

iconoclast · « **Reply #35 on:** August 24, 2010, 12:32:17 PM »

I just knocked all the gargoyles over the railing in order to beat Nightmare Train. I think I did the same to Jin too but I can't remember. It's a hard mission though, no doubt. Mostly because scenario campaign controls like shit but hey.

Beezy · « **Reply #39 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:54:50 PM »

I can't even get up to Devil Jin. Nightmare Train is too hard compared to the rest of the game.

demi · « **Reply #40 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:56:57 PM »

IT IS It's like the difficulty goes up 10 fold. What I do is run towards the gun and stay there. Then I pick off the gargoyles as they come to me.

Here's what I had:

- Ice Attack 16%
- Health Increase 338
- Fire attack 86 (this was S rank)
- Attack+ 78%
- Defense +8

I have these, but the fire item is on the same body part as my health item, so I don't use it. My health item is also only in the 200s. Attack is in the 50s. This stage and Mokujin's stage are the only one's that I have left to beat.

demi · « **Reply #42 on:** August 24, 2010, 07:18:43 PM »

Play Roger or Yoshi's stage on Hard with some item drop gear and you might pick up some good loot.

I got 1000 on this game... I dont think its bad. In fact I wish more fighting games adopted a single player mode. You can still have the hardcore to the bones arcade mode but for people who dont care for online they can enjoy the game while still finding character who they feel most comfortable with, etc. Without having to use silly Practice mode.

Might have to crack open Soul Calibur 4 now that I got the juices flowing.

iconoclast · « **Reply #59 on:** August 29, 2010, 04:39:05 PM »

There are fighting games with good single player modes, but they are very rare. BlazBlue is by far the best, Soulcalibur is good, Virtua Fighter is great but there's no story or anything, you just fight the AI in various arcades... survival mode in Dead or Alive is pretty awesome... that's about it.

I still need to go back and 1000 SC4 as well. Haven't touched it in ages. If you need someone to boost the multi achievements let me know.
