First things first, yes its 4.5 cus I'm upset that negan isn't in this game and I'm doubly upset that the closest replacement is an annoying character who's personality is drinking caffeine, a substance i unironically believe should be criminalized. But other than that this game is everything I could want from a Tekken 8. It's quick and easy to play with friends and there's less downtime between matches, thank god. Tekken 7 was my most played fighting game ever and im here for this games launch i cant wait to see how good i get at this game. Im gonna get so good and beat all of you, just watch.

Was having an amazing time with this review and then you ended with a threat. Now I have to endure a whole training arc to make sure you don't win.

Dammit elkmane.

Chapter 1: A Negan in Negan Clothing

If you by now don't know about Elkmane's iconic Negan and his insanely powerful "Negan Negage Blast", than I don't know what to say honestly. You've been living under a rock. The devs at bandai namco were also living under a rock before they invented 1+2 throws and rage arts, but that's besides the point. Elkmane is more than just a Negan player. He is Negan (this would be italicizsed if I could do that on this website [Editorial Note: Hello, it's me! Johnny Back Loggd! We'll get right on that Bagel God] Thanks Johnny!) Now that you clearly understand the basis/thesis of this essaytorium I can finally begin.

Chapter 2: 🎶Down Back Two! Not For You!🎶

Now that Tekken has removed it's staple character (Negan not Heihachi), we have to look at what moves Negan players have lost. "Oh my Goodness!" this is gonna take a bit.

1 - This is negan's iconic jab... I'm sad it's gone.

1, 2, 2 - This iconic string which ends with a gracious mid worthy of the gods. I'm so sorry you lost this Elkmane...

3+4 (Intimidation) - I can play the game without shitting my pants now. The problem is I kinda wanted to do that Bandai.

... | 85 moves later|

Woof, that took a while [Editorial Note: It's Johnny here! We'll be increasing the character limit soon so you can all see the rest of it. Give me time!]. Now to the next chapter.

Chapter 3 - No Next Chapter

My tekken life is over. There is no "next chapter" if you will. All of this is nothing. Nothing is nothing.


Chapter 4: The Funeral

When I lost him, it felt like a spear pierced my heart. I missed Negan's constant insults. The car lights shining on my face... I just want him back.

Chapter 5 Months Later

We have hope, like superman. We can survive!

Chapter 6: A New Challenger

Before ending the essaytorium off, I'd like to give my concluding thought.





ADD SUPERMAN TO TEKKEN 8 GRAHHHHHHHHHHH

- Bagel God (2024)
