Hmmm, Animal Crossing got 9.0 9.0 9.5? How did EGM give high scores like that to a kiddy looking game?

What?? Look at the score of Tekken 4: Tekken 4: 7.0 6.5 7.0
!! What happened there? The almighty tekken scores averages??

But those are some sweet scores for the GCN. Too bad that 3 out of 4 games are considered kiddy.

T4 is a bad (maybe inevitable) move.

The music is awful. The graphics are quite good (without comparing to DOA3). But graphics aren't really the issue.

The game revolves a lot more on poking rather than juggles now, but there are juggles!

It's good, but i'd probably give it an 8.5, being the hardcore fighting game fanatic i am. I still like it.

Animal Crossing and SMS will be mine!
