I think that a good game has to include a deep story line, intensive game play that requires the greater part of the gamers attention, Fast loading times so the player does not get bored waiting to play, moderate graphics so the depth of the game can be taken in, unfinished sections of the game where parts can be added on, online capabilities and a general 3d environment.

Description: A 3d fighting game, viewed by a shot on the side so the players can see every action they make. Genre: Fighting Audience: 10+ Key Points: Includes a varying degree of difficulty with many characters and special moves. Good points: Is popular, simulates many martial arts moves, good 2 player mode. Bad points: Its not necessarily bad, but in my opinion, I do not like it because of the complexity needed to memorise and execute the moves, and all once learned can leave a distaste from the other player just mashing buttons. Basically it requires little skill to operate. content/uploads/tekken_3_screenshot.jpg
