Best Martial Arts video game

[NinjaMaster]

Looks like we don't have a separate forum for video games yet, so I'll just post here until our admin creates a new forum just for video games....

Which video games, if you have the time and luxury to play, do you think is the best?

I recently got this gamecube game called UFC Throwdown it was made in 2002 though its fun to play... I think they came out with an XBOX 360 one or they will soon im to poor for that... However out of these choices I like Tekken

[Jet Li Fan]

Definitely Tekken. I've played all of the series, Tekken 1, Tekken 2, Tekken 3, Tekken Tag, Tekken 4.

I heard Tekken 5 is coming out.

OK. I created a new forum just for Martial Arts Games.

My favorite is Soul Caliber for its weapons. Tekken series is a very close second.

[MMA_Fan]

I can't believe you guys still play video games

I don't know other games but I used to be hooked on Street Fighter II.

Tekken 5 has been out for a while. Actually, Tekken 6 is being targetted for release around PS3 roll out.

Thanks for creating a new forum for video games only.

I used to love playing Tekken. I still have PS2 but don't have the time.

I LOVED Tekken. My favorite was the Tae Kwan Do(sp?) specialist. I was the man at that game. I just love street fighter because of its rich history and its feel. It has a comfortable feel to it like a comic book.

I believe the Tae Kwon Do specialist was Baek in Tekken 1 & 2. Then, they brought in his pupil, Hwaorang. Similar moves but Hwaorang had few extra fancy kicks.

I had to go with Tekken. Dead or Alive was second in my choice, but Tekken is my Most favoirte. I've played 1 thru 5, and can't wait till the 6th comes out. My favoirte characters are Martial & Forrest Law. Eddy Gordo, and Christy Montero. I like all the characters though, they are all great, just not all my favorite!

[NinjaMaster]

My favorite Tekken characters were Baek and/or Hwaorang. For the Tekken Tag, I always backed Hwaorang with Eddy Gordo.

[Word2Action]

Hwaorang! Yepp, he was absolutely my man. His arm reach wasn't great at all but his leg combinations were amazing. I remember playing Tekken Tag for the PS2 and fighting on the hardest level. At that level it was really intense like real martial arts intense because you couldn't just block attacks and then attack. You had to dodge them lightning fast as you would in real life. Its probably the most intsense virtual fighting i've ever experienced.

[NinjaMaster]

You gotta love those leg combinations kick of Hwoarang. Definitely my style of fighting.

Not in the same category of tournament fighting as the games listed in the poll, but still a martial art video game. Has anyone here played Rise to Honor...? Jet Li's game. Now that game was pertty baddass. It also has a sequel coming. Apart from the tournament fighting games as listed in the polls. Rise to Honor would have to be among my favorite and in my opinion one of the best martial art games

[Itazuki]

I reckon Mortal Kombat was definatly the best. All though Im more into ninja games such as Tenchu.
