I know, I'm just gettin' antsy.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. Honestly, I haven't paid attention to any of the openings since like 5, and it doesn't look as though I've missed anything too good.
Bloodline Rebellion was amazing:

I'm not feeling it. The Tekken 5 console opening is still my GOAT Tekken opening.

The music in the trailer isn't dubstep, but it has been kinda of a thing nowadays, huh?

I fell like I've seen this before. . . oh wait same old shit. Hopefully the game itself is good though.

Play Tekken 5. He survived an explosion of a building that sent him flying miles away and landed face first in the ground.
I would be using lasers to kill this "old man" too.

not exactly dubstep but you can tell that's been harada's taste for a while.
by the way, I don't think those parts of the music background fit well with the intro.

This brings me back to Tekken 2. Kazuya and Heihachi still duking it out. I'm waiting for Heihachi to die from old age or something.
Those two have a long hate hate relationship that began from the start.
YOU DUN FUCKED UP NAO!

Boom Boom hit you with the 2-3!
HA!!!! I was just about the edit my previous post to add BR as an exception to the 6 failure and you already correct me. Thanks!
It was the first fighting game announced to be using the Unreal Engine 4 i believe, maybe after a couple of other fighters are released. There is already footage out for it and it does not look that good.

Makes me want a new Virtua Fighter
Well, Devil Jin is my favorite-est character ever, and there's at least some Devil in here...but otherwise, I'm kinda meh on it.
The T6BR arcade opening, I agree with earlier stated, was AMAZING. I have re-watched it so many times the past few weeks. The T5 console opening is my favorite of the console versions. I can't pick between the two right now. Anyway, if they're going to make something as awesome as the T6BR one at a later time, I'll be happy and not mind waiting. And if they don't, well...I've learned not to set my expectations too high with Namco.

Yes, considering they dont have the budget to make the game look like that, to pour into the visuals considering they had to license a middleware engine to even get it looking like it does now.
To get the game's graphics looking significantly better or close to CG ala order 1886 via brand new shaders and significantly higher poly models(in the 100,000 count) would probably mean to create a brand new graphics pipeline dedicated only to certain high end machines via their own self created engine dedicated to their game. And a pretty big investment in R&D which Namco Bandai probably wasn't willing to spend on a diminishing genre that sold 1/6th the previous game, same with Capcom, which is why they are using UE4.
Red = Sad
Bold = Good
There are plenty of Joke endings for that:

As a non-fan, that's a pretty terrible intro. They do want to get people interested, right? I mean, they only really show two characters, who both look similar, fighting in just one cliched environment, nothing particularly special happens, we see a random girl talking, and then shit gets freaky at the end. What's that all about? How's that supposed to make me interested in putting a quarter in?
Yeah, basically.

With that I am going to bed. That ending smile from Kazuya is never not funny.
I really liked Tekken 4 OP

Too bad I didn't like the game itself.

But this intro is for the arcade and not directed at you. The console intro will be different.
Tekken 5 intro did a better job showing the characters.

did the arcade version show the character's endings? i was always under the impression that only the console versions did
Only the console versions of Tekken games get real endings (along with another opening that's not in the Arcade versions).
I still think Tekken 3 was by far the most hype intro:

The time jump, evolution of characters, increased CGI budget, and impeccable music just made if for me. I can just go on youtube and watch this intro and it'll instantly make me smile.
EDIT: But it should be mentioned how underwhelming the Tekken 3 Arcade Intro was:

I remember when Jin was the lead. And now he's back to being a side character so dad and grandpa can fight.
This is almost as bad as Gohan in Dragon Ball.

Yes but I want it canon. I wanna see the mishima clan fight along side each other against something else.
I'd be upset if they didn't just turn Jin into mini Kazuya. Might as well roll with Kazuya if that's the case.
there were no arcade endings
Yeah, Saint spoke to one of the producers on the team that confirmed it. I'll take it with a grain of salt for now as they may be time released at some point in the future. I'll be incredibly sad if the Bears are axed.

great fight scene but quite lazy to just reuse the Evo trailer footage :/ was hoping to see several characters get represented like in the TAG intros
I'm not sure about canon, but I believe Kazuya started the throwing in his Tekken 1 ending (although from a cliff). In Tekken 2 opening you see Heihachi climbing a mountain.
TEKKEN! TEKKEN! ROCK THE TEKKEN!
The music didn't really sound like the full shitstep that's pervasive nowadays.
I love how the opening cinematic uses a ton of strings. Those clashing CD+1's and that slow motion Kaz CD+3.
Someone said that Kazumi and her red eyes kind of look like Eliza from Revolution? I hope she's playable and not a Kazama clone, just a better female Mishima than Angel.
Maybe Lucky Chloe will show up in the console version. And obviously, there's never enough Lars and Lili.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I've heavily analyzed every (home release) Tekken intro and come to this list:
1: Tekken 4 (game sucks, but holy shit did this intro take 'seriousness' to an epic level
2: Tekken Tag (best music, best direction)
3: Tekken 3 (purely bad ass)
4: Tekken 5 (good pop and perfectly timed visual interacting with the music)
5: Tekken 2 (relaxing but thrilling)
6: Tekken 1 (trash)
7: Tekken 6 (game is the king of all fighting games, but the intro was gutter trash)

Still nothing that tops Tekken 5. The CG hasn't made big improvements since then either, seeing as they even used a bit of it during this intro.

and it should, it's done by the same production director
Heihachi. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.
