Well, finished my exam yesterday. I think I did ok. I pray I did ok.. I went into the exam all hyped up with Mother (the energy drink) with a runny nose and a chesty cough. The room was pretty small, but filled to the brim with people doing defers and supps. Haha, I was probably most annoying person in the room, having a coughing fit almost every 10 minutes. Oh well, I hope I didn't foil anyone's chances at passing.

 

Anyway, I've been looking forward to it since it was announced. Last night, I downloaded the online upgrade for Tekken. Simply put, the game sucks ass. I had a few games with Erks (Sydney), and it lagged like a bitch. The connection would fluctuate. Sometimes it was near perfect, others, there was 1-2 seconds lag. Played a few games against Quinton (Brisbane) and it was a little better, but still pretty shit.

 

This morning, I played against some Japanese folk. The lag was horrible, but I was still able to take a few wins by doing some pre-emptive Jack 5 cheap shit.

 

Tom's Rating for Tekken 5 DR: Online

4/10

Pros

You can finally play online with your friends

Practise mode

New music

Big hype

Cons

Lags like a bitch

You get cut from losing to scrubs by lag

Playing against locals still sucks

 

I think I will wait for the US or EU version.
