I remember when I went to my friend's house at that time and he just got the Playstation, I only had the Super Nintendo. He turned on Tekken 2 and I can still remember now how I was shocked and blown away by everything from this music to the graphics of the intro video. It was insane. Thats the kind of feeling I can never have again in my life.
Yea i was there during that time too i know exactly what you mean. The leap to finally get a 3D disc based console to your home from the 16 bit generation was MASSIVE. A really special time all around for sure
That's how I felt going from 2D platformers and shoot-em-ups to playing PSX Doom with its CD quality music and staggeringly realistic (for the time) world that we actually seemed to be living in.
@@aegisreflector1239 Damn I'm jealous ngl, I was born in 99 so I grew up with the N64, I also grew up with the GBA so I did play 2D games, it's just I never exprienced that jump between 2D and 3D, must've been something.
Tekken 2 is my second game after Soul Edge. I bought these two discs before I bought the console ;) This melody is a masterpiece, like the music from the Yoshimitsu stage.
@@italianstallion7007 80s was better. This feels like early 90s though which was an extension of the 80s. Tekken didn't really start to feel like the edgy 90s until Tekken 3.

@@domikarus5237 He was drunk because he failed to win the prize money to help the orphanage he was fighting for in the first tournament and he was disappointed in himself for it, it was only because of Armor King stepping in that he was helped into a fit state for the second tournament.
I think in the early tekken days the struggle between devil/angel and the dynamic of this evil devil gene was interesting but totally over the top. It created alot of imagination when I was little and seeing the angel character late in the game after unlocking all of these other characters gave me an untold struggle within kazuya as a character. This was when there was almost no story with the cast beyond kazuya throwing his dad off a cliff and likewise. It created this mystery around alot of them and that was so intreaging and still is. Now tekken went way off the rails, still good, but just the first 3 for me and the original ttt games and characters just had this untold awesome about people and the cast. It was beautiful.
I got this and a PlayStation for Christmas not knowing or caring what I received then I get hit with this intro. That was almost as magical as the 1st time I played Mario 64.
Same. Christmas 2000. I get a PS1 and this game, as well as 1 or 2 others I forgot the names of. Anyway, i boot this up for the first time, and my 12-year old mind, and that of my little brothers, is blown away by the FMV intro. However, you have to realize I had an N64 before this, and FMV of any kind on the 64 was a fever dream for someone who owned that system.
I love that they put so much effort into just the score of a fighting game. It made it so much more than a "game", really immersed me into the world/story. Will always be one of the greatest and one of my top favorites (despite the recent ones)
This track is so epic that ANY and everytime I put the T2 disk in my PS2, I would ALWAYS let the intro play out just to hear it. I would get chills when Marshall Law slowly rises up in his dojo scene...and the 🎸 riff is too bad-ass. Probably THE greatest fighting game character's montage intro of all time. Epic!!!
Tekken 2 was 🔥 Tekken 1 felt like it was just a prototype, like they didn't care to put much effort into Tekken 1 just to f*ck around and test and see how people would react to a game they were just f*ckin around when they made, and once people reacted positively to it, the developers were like "Oh yall actually liked that?! Ok now let's REALLY get serious" And dropped this heat In my opinion this is the most iconic intro theme in all 7 games
@@apiocosmico833 Thankyou my dude... There's ALWAYS people like him that literally just look for any reason to argue... Even if you say something positive, they wanna argue... That's why I wasn't even gonna acknowledge him lol
Sounds weird but i listen to this track constantly while playing Yakuza 0. Its dope and got all the vibes you need, not to mention nostalgia. Yeah, I play video games to older game tracks, lol. But this one definitely fits
Honestly, this track does fit the Yakuza 0 setting. Even though this came out in the 90's, Yakuza 0 is set in the 80's; this track and Yakuza 0 are both dramatic and dynamic, they're slick and smooth, they're intense, dark and epic...

@@marcusharrison2569 yeah man this is probably my favorite Tekken song of all time! I had to grab that mod when I saw it. Hopefully they'll add it for everyone soon.
I was born in Reading, England, 1991. And when I got this game and saw the intro for the first time, I thought the city that Jun walks through was Reading. 😂
It doesn't seem to be, with the diagonal crosswalks and signage on buildings. However, it's not that far-fetched. Her stage in Tekken 2, Morning Fields, shows Stonehenge in the background. Stonehenge lies in the county of Wilthshire, which is one county away from Reading.
Before the blogs, before easily accessible internet, as a kid, when I didn’t have the money to purchase video game guide booklets & such, I was the Tekken storyline MASTER & it was only through playing & beating every story mode with every character & watching every ending & piecing things together with friends. Occasionally we’d find a website to read the official details of the story but back then half the fun was discovering new characters, stories, modes, etc. without spoilers for the first time, personally. I really loved Tekken, man.
I was there when this was coming out. It was a very special time and place for videogames. It was revolutionary to finally have a 3D disc based console for the mass market in your house coming from the 16 bit genereation was a MASSIVE leap. Been playing games since late 80s till today, and still Tekken 2 soundtrack is one of the most underrated and greatest of all time
Definitely is. And was. I was there. Tekken, Tekken 2, and Tekken 3. In my mid forties now in 2022. Still have my PS since '96 working with import mod chip and all my games. ✨
I remember this when I used to go to the arcade and I used to play takken 2 and I never used to skip this I always used to see the intro and love the music❤💯🔥
This is literally the only Song missing from the official tekken soundtrack albums on Apple Music . They literally have every single tekken game ever made on there Including dark resurrection and bloodline rebellion separate soundtracks from 5 and 6 . But yeah this song is missing from the soundtrack of 2
Anybody know any other songs like this? Or atleast the genre?? Ever since i booted Tekken 2 for the first time and heard this ive wanted to hear more like it
