Tekken: Dark Resurrection

"Since the launch of the Playstation Portable, Namco has pretty much established themselves as the technical kings of the platform. From Ridge Racers to Katamari Damacy, they've shown that they could not only create outstanding graphics and sound on the system but even allow players to record their saves without dealing with the generic PSP OS save screen. The Tekken franchise is also long known for being a graphical showcase series on Sony systems, so when Tekken Dark Resurrection was announced for the PSP, many wondered if they could really pull it off. After all Tekken 5 is one of the more impressive looking fighters for the PS2 console, can the PSP really handle a port of the enhanced arcade upgrade to Tekken 5? "

"Tekken: Dark Resurrection for the PSP is an impressive graphical feat that also delivers everything that makes the Tekken series so great."

"The good news is that the gameplay itself is still pure Tekken. Nicely balanced and overflowing with different characters, it's as fun now as it was the day it hit arcades. And while the geometry and special effects don't look as good as those of Virtua Fighter 5 (it was built on last-gen architecture), it's still extremely pretty -- especially in the highest resolution possible."

"Tekken: Dark Resurrection is serious business. It does absolutely everything well and offers a number of options we wish were in last year's PlayStation 2 version of Tekken 5. New modes, new characters (the slow-but-powerful Dragunov and the speedier mash-friendly Lili), incredible graphics, and plenty of other add-ons not only make Tekken a fantastic fighting experience, but one hell of a great PSP game as well."
