Tekken 3 Playstation

What is Tekken 3 Playstation?

Tekken 3 Playstation is a fighting game developed and published by Namco. It is the third game in the Tekken series and is widely regarded as one of the greatest video games of all time. The game features a rich narrative centered around a powerful ancient spirit known as Ogre, who poses a dire threat to humanity. Players engage in intense one-on-one battles, each character fighting for their own reasons, be it vengeance, honor, or survival.

Rules of the Game

In Tekken 3 Playstation, players select from a roster of fighters, each with their unique moves and fighting styles. The objective is to deplete the opponent's health bar using a combination of punches, kicks, and special moves. Here are the basic rules:

1. Rounds and Matches: Each match consists of multiple rounds. The player who wins the majority of rounds wins the match.

2. Health Bar: Both fighters have a health bar that decreases when they take damage. A round is won by reducing the opponent's health bar to zero.

3. Time Limit: Each round has a time limit. If neither player's health bar reaches zero within the time limit, the player with the most health remaining wins the round.

4. Special Moves and Combos: Each character has a set of special moves and combos that can deal significant damage. Mastery of these moves is key to defeating tougher opponents.

5. Blocking and Dodging: Players can block attacks to reduce damage or dodge to avoid attacks altogether. Effective use of defense is crucial for survival.
