No I need the 44p for 1p 2p sweets.

Ah man. Why you go remind me of those. Used to love them as a kid. Penny sweets must have stopped being a thing 20+ years ago.
Closest thing I have had is those pick and mix cups from tesco a few years ago. Probably works out 5-10p per sweet though.

And Karate Belts, remember those?!
Yep. Don't recall them being called that though.
I used to love the friend eggs, coke bottles, flying sources and the red strips. Forgot the name of those but whenever I try to buy them they always have a different taste.
I fancy going to Tesco now. Can at least find wine gums there

The red strips were karate belts, you could peel the trands apart one by one that made up each belt for the lols and slurp them up like spaghetti

I meant to say red licorice sweets. Definitely not the karate belts. Though had them also.
Red Vines I think they are called.

Today is such a reminiscence day, first it's Half Life, now Tekken, I remember Tekken 3 on the PS1, I came back from Bewerley park, and Tekken 3 was my birthday present, the fun I had, why does this fun never happen anyore!
Yeah, different kind of fun when as a kid I suppose. I had Tekken 2 and Tekken 3 on the PS1. The original I am not sure if I had but I do remember playing on a arcade.
What I loved was being able to unlock characters by completing arcade mode. That's what made it a lot of fun at the start for me. Now they are all behind dlc pay walls

It's such a shame that arcades aren't really a thing anymore in the UK. Anybody who used to be in Central London back in the Tekken tag days and even Tekken 3, should remember the amazing arcade FGC. So much good trash talking but taking a graphically looks incredible.

, if I remember rightly they used to have this in the Trocadero Arcade in Piccadilly but it closed back in 2011.yeah there were some good tekken hotspots back in the day, Casino Arcade in Goodge street had the fiercest competition if I remember right.
I play on arcade stick so that at least makes it closer to the good ol' days
Have quite a few observations regarding the game but I'll leave them for after the CNT ends, have had two chances to play, as PS5 had an exclusive CNT last week, and got a few chars to the highest available rank.
The graphics look really impressive, I get why people were saying the trailers didn't do it justice.
Character models are fantastic overall and the char-specific interactions are a great touch.
Here's a compilation with better quality than the trailers, you can even see battle damage on chars but it still looks better in-game:

Raven and an original T8 character Azucena trailers dropped during EVO. Not a Raven fan and he's way too MK now and Azucena obviously had to have a dumb personality mixed with lots of annoying stance evasion but I dig the stages, way more fun and creative than 7. Since the entire (probably) base roster got leaked, Azucena seems like a Josie and LC rolled into one as they're not coming back. Thank good the two remaining newcomers seem to be a bit more grounded

I remember back in the day being blown away by the graphics of Tekken tag tournament on PS2.
However I am very underwhelmed by the graphics and character models of Tekken 7 & 8 compared to the Mortal Kombat series especially when they only have to render 2 main characters on screen.

So there you have it: 32 char base roster, some story footage and chibi avatar nonsense mode
Both the roster leak and the release date leak turned out to be true, I think people might be disappointed with the base roster and there are 4 DLC chars planned already.
