But the first thing I thought was, BT3 is not even the best in the series. That title belongs to BT2. |
What?! No, in what way Tenkaichi 2 is better than 3? I cannot enjoy Tenkaichi 2 the same after playing 3.

Not in my opinion. BT3 took out pointer functionality. That was the biggest progression I had ever seen in fighting video games. Without them, the Wii remote controls are a clusterfuck of disorganization and scatter. I am a little bit disappointed to see people adore the regression the follow up provided.
BT3 was a simpler version of BT2 which just fails off the top in this case. Not that you guys probably know what I am saying anyway, you all probably use Classic or Gamecube pads. I simply cannot enjoy this game at all.
Still, Bleach Dark Souls pwns this game. I did not see anybody argue that one...

I have both of them, and Tenkaichi 3 is a lot better in my opinion, and yes, I only play them with the Wiimote-Nunchuck. The problem with the pointer is that ALL the time you must be pointing at the Tv, and that kinda sucks. Maybe the Supers were easier to execute, but I like more the way they are implemented in Tenkaichi 3. Also, did you defend pointing up? I used the down button only.
What I do like more in Tenkaichi 2 is the step in, shaking the nunchuck is easier and faster than pressing two times up in the stick. Other than that, Tenkaichi 3 is faster, more fluid, I like better to fly and go down just pressing buttons instead of moving the nunchuck up and down, and to move fast just with the stick instead of shaking the nunchuck. The supers are more diverse and more spectacular (too bad that the Destroy Planet animation is very hard to execute), and it just have a lot of new moves that make it more balanced defensively, like the Z counter animation (when the character dodges quickly and counters) or to use Ki to keep distance with your opponent.
Don't get me wrong, I liked Tenkaichi 2, but after playing 3 and getting USED to the controls, I cannot enjoy 2 in the same way.

1) The pointer being pointed at the screen all the time was not a problem for me.
2) Supers, blocking, countering, and throws were all made easier thanks to pointer. Now, I also dislike other choices in the controls for BT3 but I will keep this solely based on how I think the pointer controls really did benefit the fighting engine.
3) I did defend pointing up. Using the down direction meant I could not reach thee up direction as fast as I wanted to. Plus it was a mind game to block pointing up off screen.
4) Supers, in my opinion were horribly implemented in BT3. It was one of my bigger disappointments. It created some of the cluster that I was so against.... I am trying not to trail off so bare with me. Thee idea that you can use the pointer for quick supers and gestures for bigger supers was a nice addition to BT2. It made me believe the developers were actually trying to make the fighting genre worthwhile with Wii remote and nunchuk. BT3 seems to take so much away and dumb down even simple movements that I could not help my disappointment. I trailed off...
5) Being so close to the screen was thee only serious problem I had with the game. But as we can all tell, that was a design choice and not a limitation of the controller. It could have been improved upon in BT3. What would have made me happy was an option to play BT3 using a lot of the basic controls of BT2 or to play the way they offer. That would ahve been a cool design choice. Give me thee option to play using the pointer. What would it have hurt?
6) I got used to BT3. I really enjoy the game. I know I kind of harp on it, but I am not trying to say the game is poor by any means. I am just saying that I believe BT2 is a superior product. I bought BT3 hoping to play online with a lot of you guys because locally, I was the best BT2 player (not that it means a lot but I won countless tournaments...) and I was looking for greater challenges, but even that is horribly underwhelming (to be nice about it).
7) It is my opinion, but I am glad I put down BT3 and went back to the far, far more innovative BT2. In my opinion, it is just a better game. A little primitive in comparison, but still a better game for my taste.
