Honestly , Tekken 5 and Tag tournament 2 is the best we have gotten as something close to near perfection when it comes to fighting games but my main problem with tekken 5 in particular is something about blocking.

The blocking in tekken 5 in particular just felt off putting to me it’s not that I’ve had bad pads or anything it’s just I remember and I still do test this that between combos or just layups spamming back to block or even holding it just doesn’t work in well.
I have never had this issue in any tekken game ever, which is why it is a bit concerning. The hit box is just a bit off too but you can still get over that fact by the spectacular spacing this game provides. All in all a great game with just one major gripe which possibly could just be a personal issue but it just leaves a bit of a sore taste in my mouth.
