Hilarious PR Images for Tekken Tag Tournament with Real Wrestlers

Posted by
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is coming on Friday. It's fun. We've been playing it. We'll tell you about it later. For now, let's look at what Namco Bandai's PR company has sent us.

We've got fun pix that relate real boxers, sadly they are not dressed up as Tekken fighters such as Kuma ("the comedy bear" as she is nicknamed in the SPOnG office) or Jun Kazama.

We've even been sent the caption that we can use: "Caption: Boxers battle it out at Rooney’s Gym on a Tekken Tag Tournament 2 arcade machine which has been installed to help improve fighters’ reflexes. The game will be released on Sept 14th for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3"

Helpful.

There is also background text: "World renowned boxing manager and coach John Rooney Jnr has installed a Tekken Tag Tournament 2 arcade machine at his London gym to help his fighters improve reflexes and hand-eye coordination."

There's even a quote from the world-renowned boxing manager and coach and gym owner of.... Rooney’s Gym, "I know a number of boxers who play fighting games like Tekken and I was surprised to see a noticeable improvement in their reflexes and hand-eye coordination.

"We’ve installed the arcade machine in Rooney’s gym as I am a firm believer in video games and the benefits they have for fighters’ reflexes and reaction times. These games are a great addition to a fighter’s arsenal of training tools.”

There you go, World renowned boxing manager and coach John Rooney Jnr has seen "noticeable improvement in their reflexes and hand-eye coordination" because of playing video games.
