The Good-Ass Game That Reclaimed Its Throne: The Story of Tekken
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- For the longest time, Tekken was fighting games’ best kept secret.
For years, it lived in the shadows of more popular fighting games. More known fighting games. More competitive fighting games.
But when the other games fell flat, Tekken finally got its shot. Its chance to prove that none of that was true. That Tekken could be the biggest, best and most exciting fighting game on the planet.
And this is its story.

Excellent video on the history of Tekken and it's impact on the FGC!
Respect Majin. Respect.
The actual King of Iron Fist Tournament
Its the king himself...huge respect man❤
Lil Majin the GOAT fr
Bro big fan you are one of the best king player in the world.
The one thing that always amazes me about Arslan Ash is that he came from this scene no one even thought about existing, destroys everyone in his way and then just casually mentioning that he's not even the best player in his region. How can anyone react to this?
Nobody:
Pakistan: GET READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE.
im from pakistan and even i didnt know we had a scene LUL
Pakistani Anime Arc.
By sending your best over there and humbling all of em. Note Knee. Now they're pool drowners
It’s literally an arc from anime
*I just want to say thank you to theScore esports*
for introducing The Fighting game community to a wider audience
I got more into the FGC because of you guys and Gerald from Core-A Gaming
Might I also recommend Maximilian Doods UA-cam and Twitch channels. His channel is very informative, and he's a pretty down to earth guy.
@@RuffWarl0ck Gerald and Max are huge in finding my lost love for fighting games after ignoring them for more than a decade. After Tekken Tag Tournament i lost the love. These dudes and games like Tekken 7, Guitly Gear and Skullgirls brought it back and me straight into the FGC...
Yeah same here
@@RuffWarl0ck i watch Max vids every day. Guy is awesome!
Totally agreed! Sports documentary style videos for E-Sports is genuinely a fantastic way to make the world pay attention to E-Sports and that it is as exciting as normal sports.
"Knee was known as the King of Tekken"
So in other words, the King of Iron Fist Tournaments
Pretty much....
Not anymore though
Raven McRavington Lol
Raven McRavington so wait. Knee is basically the real life Heihachi
@@TheErenYeagerChannel I think he is the best Tekken player of all time, he won many tournaments to tournaments.
Every time harada says PANDA REALLY my hope for hummanity increases
"rirry??!!"
"Panda??? Riry???"
Shut up! Gettu backu to yoh sheat.
Haha
Why Tekken have a panda?? Question for harada
-really?? Epic...
And even after Arslan's legendary run to win two consecutive EVOs for the first time ever, he wasn't even nominated for the Game Awards. Really sad. He deserves it.
And Jump Force gets nominated over Power Rangers Battle for the Grid. Game Awards is a joke
Fighting games generally still don't get as much recognition as other genres.
Honestly those guys are so tone-deaf to anything that’s not League of Legends or CS:GO or something like that. Something truly historic happened with Arslan and he’s not even a nominee.
snair it's because the fighting games competitive scene unfortunately aren't as popular as League and CSGO, but maybe this could change with the new League fighting game.
@@koalawithchaingun53 They knew that if they nominated him there is no way they won't give him the award
I don’t play this game, but the stories actually bring tears to my eyes
play it you are missing out
Videos games....such a beautiful thing man lol
I feel you but i started playing tekken 4 when i was 9...and tekken always bring me shivers when i watch those stories
Jacob Gushue you’re missing out on a legendary game that’s too bad.
Lmao if you play the game, be prepared for more tears cuz that shit hard boi
The legend once said: "PANDA? REARY ?!"
🤣🤣🤣
*learry
Lmaaooooooo
REARY?
He also said "Shaddap!"
Arslan: *Beats all of the previous world's top and best champions single-handedly and wins EVO*
Also Arslan: "I am not even the best in my region."

How are you enjoying the local tournaments? I picked up the game after eScore made the video about Rangchu but to this day haven’t joined a local scene I’m too nervous haha.
Must be nice to have a tekken scene that's popping over where you are. Its hella dead here.

Crazy how Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat are the games I grew up on, but Tekken was the one that won my heart. Low key wished that Killer Instinct would make a big comeback, but shit happens.

Edit: Am enjoying it greatly thus far
Enjoy it!!
Good luck

I've never really been a fan of fighting games (watching or playing them), but I always love the FGC videos on this channel. Idk what it is.
ITS THE HYPE BRUH! LETS GO!
Same dude, I've never played fighting games and I'm not really interested in them, but damn if I don't enjoy these videos.
The storylines are so different and imho, more compelling than traditional esports
@@dorkasaurus_rex I mean... fighting game is the OG esport tho.
Yea, same. The vids are awesome. Though best Esports story is still OG TI8, the FGC vids are great in their own right!
The fact that most of the hype tournament footage they used here has Aris's commentary makes it more hype

As a life long Tekken fan i'm so glad it's finally got the respect it deserves! Long live the king of iron fist tournament!
And long live the Iron Grandpa
I started to tear up watching this. Every Tekken video this channel makes are always so beautiful. Thank you for these amazing Tekken videos and please, keep up the great work.
Dude i felt the same way. Glad im not alone. Tears rollin
👍
how do you cry from a video game... lock in guys come on
I just love how global fighting games are. It’s just beautiful. The fact that so many flags get shown on screen during massive tournaments is the best.
Y'all gotta cover Eyemusician's insane Yoshimitsu run. Using the most unorthodox character possible to take down God after God.

that would be a great vid, those matches were hype af
@@mohseneman nah they're gods at the game
@@mohseneman metaphors just don't work with you
theres no story though. maybe we need to buff yoshi lol
Tekken is like a part of our lifestyle .
That it is indeed man.
There’s clearly something in my eye, because I thought I shed a couple of REAL tears toward the end of this lol. The emotion watching the Arslan and Qudans storylines was too real.
I love this game!
THE most entertaining and least repetitive fighting game, to watch or play, hands down.

I’ve been playing Tekken since I was a kid, my first being TK3
Same here my first fighting game was tekken 3
Tekken 4 here, honestly made my childhood forever loving tekken
Classic....
Ocean same here Tekken 3
My first game for the PlayStation ever was Tekken 3, So many memories with my childhood friends in the game.
Red Tekken and Crush Racing game these were my favorites
Nostalgic, eh....? 😔
Still getting goosebumps when thinking arslan story. And the time he defeated knee.
After years defending Tekken while others bashed it.. it feels good to know Tekken is back on top! Grats Tekken 7!
People who bash on Tekken are mere fools who cannot begin to comprehend how legendary the franchise happens to be......pure ignorance, I must say.......
Who bashed Tekken though. . .? I just want to have a few words with them. I'll be on my best behavior, although no promises.
@@tmcttf8087 I noticed that the people who lose repeatedly because they suck are the one's who hate on Tekken
@@VillainessAO Definitely, lol.
I know of more people with in home arcades than actual arcades in a 50 mile radius of where I live and I only know 1 lol I wish arcades were still a thing
Ikr. It used to be awesome
That's why I love México, every single Tortilleria (places where they make fresh tortillas to sell) and ice cream stores have some form of arcade machines on them, so you can always play SF, Tekken, MvC or King of Fighters in them, and since most ice cream shops (the most famous across mexico are Michoacana stores) are found across or close to schools, you can imagine how many students duel in them.
Timezons and bibo
Pakistan is full of tekken arcades
I remember there used to be tekken arcade cabinets in the place with all the claws and usual games to play for prizes. My father and I used to put in some coins and start competing with each other. I really missed that.
Man. I'm proud of Tekken. I was born and raised in the Virgin islands. We had one arcade on the island in the 90's we were all competing against each other in street fighter 2, samurai showdown and Tekken. I have always been excited about street fighter but Tekken gave me a different feeling. It's so good to see it mature into the badass fighting game it always was. #tekken4ever
*15 seconds in*
Aris: "HE DID IIIIIT!"
prolly my 2nd aris quote, after JIMMY JAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYñ
I've said it once, I'll say it again, and I'll always say it: Fighting games are the best esports because you can never not get hyped from seeing a sickass combo. It doesn't matter how complicated or execution heavy it is, if it looks sick and that health bar is shrinking with each punch or kick, you get hyped.
And no other fighting game has captured that spirit as well as Tekken has with Tekken 7. FGOTC in my heart
its also the best because its 100% of pure skill, both mental and muscle memory, very like a traditional sports. Alot other esport games have rng/luck factor
gustinex i guess u never heard or played CSGO. I’m a huge tekken fan, but CSGO is literally everything u guys mentioned, but even harder to master on professional level. And besides that, tekken is 1v1, where CSGO is 5v5. Maybe it’s not even correct to compare those games with eachother
@@benjaminbeatz2063 yea it's not. Shooters are second to fighting games in terms of hype, I just feel like theres a lot more you need to know to be properly impressed in shooters.
@@HairCutsEmo Like what? Because seeing pros play cod or rainbow 6 siege is very entertaining and both require skill and hours of practice. In fact, they're more complicated yet easy to understand for a newcomer. Not saying either is better, but that it's foolish to say that shooters can't compete if it were a competition.
@@Lalo3g1 to start of, I'm supreme in CSGO and around 6k hours in the game, and I've competed in locals so those are my credentials in CSGO. And theres so many small details that most casual viewers will not catch. KennyS getting an AWP ace on inferno looks sick as shit to everyone, but noticing how GeT_RiGhT (F) is always being so calm and strategic in his lurking and astralis grenade usage and fnatics pocket strats you see them perform flawlessly every time they play overpass takes so much more knowledge of the game to truly appreciate the high level of play. Fighting games it kinda depends, but it's like most tournaments I watch its slow paced enough for the commentators to explain everything so meticulously and precise so you too as a casual can appreciate how well these guys are playing, but the commentators are sooooo much more emotional and invested in the match than most other esports and they just spew hype over you and you get so hooked. Bottom line: imo shooters have more fine details than fighting games that you need to be experienced to notice and fighting games have S tier casters
You guys are amazing. This video brought me to tears. This was the ode to Tekken that we have all been waiting for and I am so thankful. Thank you TheScore. You're awesome ❤️
The part about the arcades dying out just makes me sad.

@ i don't get it either 😐
Ever since the first time I played Tekken 3 I knew this would be my favorite fighting game series of all time. It’s had highs and lows but the highs were always so unbelievably, ridiculously high the lows were quickly forgotten. Cannot wait for T8
One of the first games i played as a kid was Tekken 4 on my PS2. I still to this day get nostalgia whenever i hear the soundtrack. There was nothing cooler than playing on that lab level with the fog on the floor and hearing Brian laugh while that background music played...
I never played online fighting games, until I started watching this channel. 3 or 4 days into playing Tekken 7, I have played 12 online ranked matches, and have won 8 games so far, currently 6 in a row, and still learning to play.
Adding Slow motion to the game was a stroke of genius in the age of twitch and UA-cam. It leads to some insanely intense moments for both the players and the audience.
my first Tekken game was Tekken 3, and I absolutely loved it.
Watching this gave me actual goosebumps. Being a Tekken player during 6 and Tag 2 I definitely can say Tekken 7 is the renaissance for the franchise. Truly well earned
I also started getting into the Tekken series in Tekken 6 at high level
You can't ignore Tekken, also you can't ignore the amount of effort you guys put on those videos (script, visual design, directions, charisma, passion etc). Big thanks
Tekken to me is actually harder than usual fighting games, making it more competitive plus each character has its own playstyle, timing, and combos. Totally love this game
In the wise words of Steve himself, "If you arent playing Tekken right now, what are you doing?".

We Got Small Shops Having Arcade Machine With Tekken In It Only In Most Areas Of Almost Every City
@lolumad If what he said is true, we might not have to wait long to find out.
@lolumad Our Countries Shares Lots Of Common Things We Are The Same People With Mostly Same Things Just Divided By Borders That Includes Bangladesh Too.
And I Never Said We Have Pro Players I Just Said We Have Grown Up With Tekken And Lots Of People Are Aware It.
Most People Played Tekken For Fun After School Including Me And Arcade Mashine Were Not Mostly Gaming Shops They Was Just Normal Shops With Tekken Arcade Machine Cause Kids Love It.
And The Time I Used To Play It We Dont Even Know About Professional Matches Hell We Dont Even Have Internet As Cheap As Now So Everyone Can Have It. Learning A Move Was Probably How We Play It Cause Shops Wont Let Us See Move Lists And 10 Move Combos Is What We Called Combos.
(Tho There Maybe Pro Too That I Am Not Aware Of Cause We Are After All So Many Have Played It Some Nut Ones Could Have Loved It To Have Gone To The Next Level.)
@@theindianneek7225 India has a lot of people. If Tekken is popular, there's bound to be some people who are good enough to fight the best the world has to offer.
Oh my GOD, I frickin' LOVED Tekken 3. Hundreds of hours playing against my brothers.
Street Fighter 2 was my first gaming obsession. But when I first played Tekken 2 on PSOne, I knew I had a new fighting game series. And so it remains to this day. Well, there was a time when I was absolutely obsessed with Soul Calibur on the Dreamcast, but once I got TTT on PS2 I was back on the Tekken bandwagon.

"Firmly grasp it in your hand."
Only in 2018 and 2019 Tekken has had an incredible rise. These two years almost deserve a "the story of" only for themselves
Only this channel can make content about games that i don't even play anymore that have me tearing up.
Truly beautiful content once again, thanks boys
Ive been playing tekken since the 1st installment. Im so happy to how far has it goes
I love this tekken content, the reason i started playing was from watching jdcr play. On the first year of release he was a god it was amazing , he sweeped as hard as knee and arslan id love to see you guys do a piece on him. love this stuff.
man this game was my childhood. I always go to arcades back when I was younger and funny enough this was the most popular game at the arcade I was goin to
Outstanding mini-documentary, very well done.
On a personal note I've been a fan since Tekken 1 in arcade & PS1 & have played all (casually) iterations with the exception of Tekken Tag 1.
For me it has been & always will be the best fighting game. 😎👍
As someone who got into Virtua Fighter during its peak, I'd be interested to see exactly when (and why) tekken overtook that series. VF is now dead and Tekken is stronger than ever. VF had some very cool mechanics and a lot of depth, but I suspect what it lacked was a sense of flashiness and style. One game featured a generic Chinese guy, and the other had Bruce Lee punching the opponent in the nutsack.
Virtua Fighter is a much more complex game with deeper fighting mechanics, all characters are viable, but Tekken went for the normies and won in that department.
@@franciscor390 "Normies" lol ok
Ps1 install base, different controls
@@minxy6121 He's really not wrong though. Tekken has a lot of depth, but it's also very accessible. You can understand Tekken to a reasonable level and start pulling off combos and utilizing proper movement and spacing to a basic degree within a day or two of playing. Virtua Fighter is absolutely nothing like that at all. The game is like running straight in to a brick wall in comparison when you start.
Virtua Fighter was still more widespread than Tekken in the arcades in the late 90s and early 2000s, but Tekken 3 on PS1 was the king on home consoles and the subsequent games built on that.
Outside of being the most hype FG (IMO), it also helps that their main commentators are also incredibly hype. Aris, Markman, Rip, Steve, Spag, etc. It's just a blast listening to their commentary.
I love you Tekken fam, we gotta stick together until the end ❤️ Tekken forever ❤️
Its fun playing and learning Tekken with others, but when the best of Tekken go toe to toe and you got Tasty Steve commentating, that is where Tekken thrives and makes watching the game hype as hell.
Im in love with tekken now
@Miscellaneous Mind I started Tekken 4, and I started playing again now

This was such a great video. Tekken has so many great stories and moments it's truly amazing. I remember I went to ceo and thought I would do better in sfv rather then tekken and this was my first time competing at the time. And so I played and I ended up rekked in sfv and won a few in my pool for tekken it was amazing so I spent the rest of the days learning and playing tekken hard it was amazing and that live finals was perfect. I still have videos of it all it was amazing :)
Man I remember playing Tekken since I was a child from the arcade machines to Tekken 3's beat em up side game... its heart warming to see it have the recognition it always deserved thanks theScore you guys are great
TBH Tekken has always been a popular game. Its rise in competitive FGC popularity is really complication and a mix of things. I think a lot of the player base wasnt aware of the scene compared to the capcom games or less willing to go out and compete in the game. Tekken 7 is a great game and people enjoy it a enough to go out and compete, Also international travel and world tour has helped it grow as well which was less common back in the early 2000. SFV's rocky launch and the disaster launch of MvCI also likely helped a lot too. Im a SF player who started with Tekken (Tekken 5 and DR being the ones I enjoyed the most) so its cool to see it grow even though I dont play Tekken 7 myself often.
This video makes me cry, i play tekken tournaments around the world from tekken 5 and it's just they said, we were in the corner play our game while the wolrd was looking other fighting game, but we continue to fight for our game because we love it. AND NOW EVERYONE KNOWS IT IS THE BEST, THANKS THESCORE ESPORTS With all of my heart and soul
I literally just watched Lil Majin EVO run, and then this popped up
The first tekken i played was tekken 3 back in 2006 on the ps1 with my older brother and to this day i still enjoy it cant wait for tekken 8

Another great video by the score! Honestly thank you for introducing the fighting game community to me, I'm still a noob at tekken 7 but i damn well enjoy playing the game for hours non stop.
A shame JDCR rarely gets a mention in those videos. I get that he doesn't have a sob story like some others, but he had one of the most dominant lasting strides in Tekken7 and seems to be such a nice and humble guy really loving the game and its whole community.

I grew up playing street fighter 2 turbo for the snes all the way to the alpha and ex series for the ps1. I loved sf. One day my friend invited me over to play this fighting game called tekken 5. He used this ninja called raven to beat me. It was really frustrating bc I didn’t understand how to play the game. He would beat me using two moves, the orbital heel or leg sweep. I was so mad that I secretly vowed to learn the game and dominate him and his brother the next time we fought. I bought the game and picked up two fighters law and Bryan. It took me over 1 year to learn the core gameplay mechanics. The next time we fought I killed the competition. But more importantly I reflected on how amazing this franchise really was. The technicalities, the depth, the characters, the flexibility. I really thank my friend for introducing me to tekken. It was very hard to get other people around my area to play tekken bc there is a huge learning curve but the reward is worth it once everything clicks. But I’m very happy tekken is getting some love now. The best fighting game ever!!
Damned ninjas cutting onions while I was watching Qudan holding the trophy.
Harada revived Tekken with 7. Before the game released he said he realised the key to popularity was to make the next entry in the series fun to watch. He added slowmos and rage drives and it made the game just as beautiful to watch as it was to play
tekken > any other fighting game
Ah yes, Tekken the only game that makes you question your entire existence after fighting an old geezer with a mouth for his stomach...

As someone who started off playing street fighter and many Capcom fighters throughout my life. I have to say, Tekken is shining brighter than anything else right now and I never thought I would be saying this. One of my favorite fighting games had been Capcom vs SNK 2 and I think now it is Tekken 7.
Love the shade being thrown at GranBlue Fantasy. XD
I am sold. For years i was playing only Tekken 6 and TTT2, this sudden emerging hype for Tekken 7 urges me to play the game. What a time to be a fan
Came back to watch this after the TWT finals was over
However, please theScore esports, do a video on Knee
Even if he didn't win the championship, still do a video
Qudans is the GOAT. This dude overcame everything in his way. The only player to do that really.
Meanwhile, Virtua Fighter quietly waits for SEGA to do remember it exists.

And I also gotta say that the community is really strong. There is a deep love for the game and the community. Hope you enjoyed my rant and have fun playing Tekken.
