Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection (for Sony Playstation Portable) is credited for taking the series back to its roots. It incorporates a faster, more fluid fighting system, improved graphics, returning characters, and some of the Tekken series’ trademark infinite stages. New to Tekken 5 is the crush system which affects the vulnerability of a character while they attack. For example, a move with jumping properties, such as a hopkick, will be completely invulnerable during most of its animation time to all of an opponent’s low attacks.
The PSP version runs at full 60FPS during matches (although it reverts to around 30 fps for the pre-fight and post-fight cinematics). The game features game sharing, which means that only one copy of the game is needed to play over ad-hoc. The game runs on version 2.6 firmware for the North American version, and the European version requires version 2.71.
Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection also brings you to another mode that includes Tekken Dojo, where players fights with a ghost of other players that can be uploaded and downloaded online. Tekken Bowl and Gold Rush is also available whereas the player fights for in-game cash. Customization of characters also include in this game, you can add and change color of you characters profile.
