The usual from Prima, May 31, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from Los Angeles, California

This man has never read the book. This book has EVERY move availble to the characters. Some characters span several pages more than others (Lei Wulong). It tells strategies on how to beat EVERY other character in the game. This guy must not of bothered to open the book.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - the 3rd Iron Fist Tournament
This game I give a rating out of ten, 20. I've had it since 1999 and its now past half way through 2001. If you like martial art style games like Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, this puts them to shame. The first time I played Tekken, I was hooked, and I had a ps by the time Tekken2 was released, I couldnt help my self, and when Tekken3 came out, I was almost sick of the tekken saga, until I baught it, and trust me, it was well and truly worth the wait. The mixture of global martial art styles was a delight. From Brazilian Capoeira to Japanese Manji and Chinese styles of all kinds. Not only were these styles accurately named and studied, but Namco still added more, thousands, literaly thousands of unmentioned and unlisted moves to give the game far more life. Every character you unlock also unlocks hours more. The modes available make the game interesting, and again, more life is added per mode you unlock. The realistic movement and 3d envirenment lift the game into a higher light, where as in MK4 it is still 3d, but there is no sidesteps, various combos, throws and power moves as opposed to Tekken3. Survival mode means you can never stop improving and the endings are humourus, exiting and thought provoking.

To put it short, Tekken3 is brilliant, the only flaw is that there arent enough stages in Force mode. 200% rating from me


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Tekken 3 : Prima's Official Strategy
The guide for tekken 3 could have been better. They spent lots of time with the photos, but some of the moves were either wrong or incomplete(paul's tackle to choke move). King's links could have been explained better, and there is lack of actual combos for all the characters. I enjoyed brady's guide better.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - The usual from Prima
Boy, was I disappointed. This "strategy guide" had NO strategy. Heck, it didn't even have a good layout for the moves!! I bought this book for the characters exclusive to the PlayStation version, hoping for a COMPLETE moves list for them, but of course, I was wrong. It didn't even have combos, and what they passed off as combos were actually the 10-strings that are already in the game! The strategy disgraces the genius of Tekken! I could probably beat Simon Hill because the Versus Books strategy guide was actually a strategy guide! And that strategy guide was actually made by national Tekken champs!

Don't get this strategy guide. The best parts of the book are ones you can glance through when you're sitting down reading it in the newstand. The artwork (4 measly pieces that you can download) and the history of Namco are the only things going for it.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Versus, BradyGames, & IGN guide are a lot better...
After I read this book, it left a lot to my mind. There was SOME strategy, but not very much per character. Ben Cureton's, Versus Books', and IGN's guide were much better done, and they were all written by Tekken experts (especially Cureton, who is a three-time national Tekken champ). This book could have been written by my ten-year old brother. Avoid this and buy either BradyGame's book or (better yet) Versus Book's.
