#341 Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection PS3 \\ Marduk beats Arcade Battle; Law & Hwoarang in Ghost Battle!
1Finally playing through Arcade Battle mode in Tekken 5: Dark -Resurrection on PS3 with Craig Marduk, then trying out Marshall Law and Hwoarang in Ghost Battle mode!
0:00 - start
1:10 - Arcade Battle play-through w/ Marduk
46:20 - Vs Battle (accidental, aborted 'p')
50:20 - Ghost Battle - Law
1:14:50 - Ghost Battle - Hwoarang
1:45:06 - wrap-up & what's next!
Was surprised there's no dialogue with other characters, and no ending whatsoever, in Arcade Battle--but checking afterwards, I find that that stuff was indeed left behind in Tekken 5 on PS2 (and maybe Tekken Dark Resurrection on PSP?). That darn lava boss was a real pain until I learned to a) dodge and b) just do juggles from down-left-punch. :p Also I had bear problems. : o
In the pause menu of at least Arcade Battle and Ghost Battle modes you can change the difficulty on the fly--changing it to Easy in Ghost Battle before you select a new character will tend to make it so that new character's first fight is against a low ranked opponent, rather than a medium-ranked one. Phew. I'd somehow managed to overlook the pause menu difficulty setting all this time, argh! ; )
Unlike Tekken 6 though, here when I cranked the difficulty up to Ultra, it wasn't offering me super high-rank opponents. Hm. My test character in 6 was somewhat higher rank to start with though, so maybe that had something to do with it? (Huh no I checked this later and I was getting "Sage" and other very high ranks challenging me in DR, after selecting a character when the difficulty had already been set to Ultra.)
And I finally realized--after doing it in T6--that I could raise the rounds-to-win in Ghost Battle from just 2 to the beefier 3, which is what you get in for instance Virtua Fighter "Quest" modes, so I did that. : )
Apparently in the PSP version of the game, you can download additional "ghost" characters to fight against as customized AIs. In the PS3 version--even if you've purchased the "Online Expansion" DLC--more on that in the next video!--there's no downloading ghosts. (In 6 on PS3 you *can* download "ghosts" featuring the rank and customized appearances of anybody who goes into the Online Mode menu of that game--even your own!)
Notice that the very last match that comes up, @ 1'42"30, is in one of the "old" stages, whereas all the other stages seen in this session were DR "new" stages (I scrolled through thumbs of the "old" and "new" stages when I accidentally started a 2P Vs Battle @ 46'20)--more on *that* in the next video as well! I was gonna move on to VF4 but I stumbled across more stuff to dig up in DR! Or actually, *not* in DR. Kind of. It's confusing, and I'll try to de-confuse it--but probably just make it all worse--next!
And speaking of the end of this video, check the "what's next" section for me spilling the beans on yet ANOTHER PS3 Tekken game I've purchased--since T6, I mean :p--and should have in my hot little hands (hm I actually do have small hands but in these aged days they seem to be prone to getting cold easily, rather than sweaty like they used to get ;) early next week!
