jp Tekken Tag Tournament Turbo

Tekken Tag Tournament TurboTekken Tag Tournament Turbo is a special version of Tekken Tag Tournament made in 1999. Some players had the chance to play this game during the few times it was seen in operation. TTT Turbo is twice as fast as the original game and the gravity is altered to allow characters to do superhuman jumps and float during projections easing longer combos. All characters have different animations and some are even invisible. Why talk about it again ten years later? Because Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada said today that Tekken Tag Tournament Turbo was indeed a limited official edition (made for a special event) and not another pirate version à la Street Fighter II Rainbow Edition. He also published three videos of the game on TwitVid: video 1, video 2, video 3.

eu Super Bikes 2 hits Europe

Super Bikes 2 hits EuropeSuper Bikes 2, the new crazy mororcycle game from Raw Thrills, hits Europe today! What's new compared to the first installment released in 2006? The machine has been completely redesigned: the screen is bigger (42" instead of 27), cabinet colour changed from red to yellow and there are many more LEDs to attract the public. Game content is not left on the roadside with 11 new courses (20 in total), 12 new bikes (in addition to 9 rides from the previous version), new stunt moves and new shortcuts to discover. Up to 8 machines can be connected for heated races with friends. It is worth noting that unlike Nirin or Manx TT, Super Bikes 2 offers off-road racing where the player's performance allow him to upgrade his bike, he can then save his progress using a PIN code and pick up his tuned bike back later. Like other Raw Thrills titles, the game does not take itself seriously, it's fun that matters, and we can be confident on that point! The races take place in locations like Chicago, Las Vegas, Paris, Detroit, Dubai, Monaco and Shanghai, but also in the Himalayas and even in space! But while courses are fanciful, the vehicles are existing models: Kawasaki 450F, Ninja ZX-14, Vulcan 2000 Classic, Yamaha Warrior, R1, VMax, Ducati 1198s, Monster, Streetfighter, ... Super Bikes 2 is available at all Bandai Namco Games European distributors.
