No doubt, the PlayStation version of Tekken 3 is regarded as one of the greatest games of its genre. After THPS2, Tekken 3 is still ranked on number 2 in top 10 PlayStation games of all time.

They said it couldn't be done on a home console system. With a dare like that, Namco had to prove them wrong. Tekken 3 is proof of the Sony PlayStation's power.

Tekken 3 is the latest in a line of wildly-popular 3D fighting games, each of which has been converted from its arcade format to the PlayStation. It does not have super moves or power bars or magical attacks, like many other fighters — only lots of bone-breaking, flesh-tearing, spine-tingling physical onslaughts.

Ten players are available initially, but at least that many are also hidden, released when the players accomplish certain tasks. Robots and Native Americans and giant pandas are included, and some new characters created specially for the home version.

There are only four basic attack functions, one button for each limb. Other buttons can be assigned to sidestep into and out of the 3D ring, or to simulate pushing two attack buttons simultaneously. This is the first PlayStation game compatible with the Dual Shock control pad, which provides force feedback to the players, similar to the Nintendo Rumble Pak.

Tekken 3 is not an easy game to get into. The basic attacks are clumsy and difficult to string together. The special attacks are unique for every character, with little common ground to help associate between moves and characters, making for much memorization. Many moves require an unusual combination of tapping and pushing directionals, followed by several attack buttons; pulling off such moves is no easy task for anyone but veteran Tekken players.

When mashing the buttons and fighting the controller, be sure to notice the gorgeous graphics. Tekken 3 is one of the most visually-impressive video games since Final Fantasy VII, nearly identical with its arcade counterpart. The fighters move with the grace of battle dancers, flawlessly executing a variety of moves. Opening and closing cinema sequences of full-motion video are astounding. Only the background graphics are often unremarkable, but do scroll smoothly.

There are two sets of soundtracks to choose from, arcade (original) and remixed. Both are standard fare for the fighting scene, though a few are inappropriate or weak. The sound effects are great, from groans and snaps to growls and thuds. Attention to detail was paid in their implementation: the sound of punching a robot's jaw is noticeably different from any other face being broken.

Several gameplay modes are available — not as many as in a Street Fighter, but more varied. Arcade and team battle are for the single player, and naturally there is a two-player game. A side-scrolling Double Dragon-type beat-em-up is available, though is unimpressive. There is a hidden mode similar to dodge ball, but it is difficult to unlock.

Between the various modes and the vast number of characters, Tekken 3 carries considerable replay value. There are several paths for finishing the game, and each makes available a new fighter with which to explore. The sheer uniqueness of many of these modes and contestants is often incentive to continue gaming.

Tekken 3 is not an easy game, nor is its battle techniques adaptable to or from many other fighting titles. Novice gamers may be thrown off by its difficulty — it's definitely a game at which you must work to enjoy. Those familiar with the series, on PlayStation or in the arcade, or with the patience to master a worthwhile new title, will find hours of fighting to be found in Tekken.
