Yah this was the tekken tag for the ps2 it was released years after t3. The arcade version of tag was only a slight imrovement since it still used T3s engine 😁. Im stil more used to the arcade version though.
Tbh the character models look better than T4 even. It's pretty crazy how good tag looked when it came out. I had seen it in magazines and was blown away, but when I saw it in motion at launch, I knew I had to get a PS2 asap
He didn't, they just didn't have time to properly model each character with distinguishable proportions and gave him a standard body (with little to no tweaking) like all other male characters.
Yea him and alot of others i didnt really like it bc the idea of taekwondo is ur supposed to be quick and agile and its hard to believe a guy built like a bodybuilder could do that well. More muscle mass works on guys like marduk, king, or even jin but not so much on the quicker fighters like hwoarang or law
@@Nas97. Exactly, a lot of martial arts training doesn't focus on building muscle mass. Idk I think they had a grasp of that aspect in tekken 3/tag1 up to tekken 6 then they went for stylized anime art direction
@@Nas97.not hard to believe when you have guys like Michael Jai White, Scott Atkins, Samo Hung etc and myself out here that are agile with a bigger frame. Hence Bob. It's just rare to see. However you're right that it doesn't fit Hwoarang specifically because it's not the narrative they were going for with him like they were with a character like Bob. I think it was more of a flaw/lazy part of the male character models overall than Hwoarang himself. Even Law, Feng etc got jacked af in certain Tekkens and the same happened even to a character like Dhalsim in SF where he got big af for no reason 😅 trippin
I really REALLY hated all the designs of Tekken 4. That is probably why it sold the least amount of copies in the entire franchise (not including the first one.)
Tekken 4 had my favorite designs. Tekken has the Dragonball Super/GT conflict. Some of us like major progressive changes in design other like minor conservative tweaks.
So at 19, he was a 4th Dan. In T8, at 22, he’s a 8th Dan. Considering the universe he’s from, he had to have been training hard almost every other day since he was at least 5 or 6yrs old. Even then, that’s insane.
One of my first personal video game crushes, Mmm those Tekken 3 days haha. He really translated quite nicely over the series though his Tekken 4 look with the longer hair is still one of my most favorites. Army alternate looked cool as well. And of course, such a fun character to play.
@@monotypical_ I think facially Hwoarang looked great in Tekken 5 but I hated his outfit and I much preferred the "biker cowboy" look he got in Tekken 6 lol In Tekken 8 he looks very different, I'm not sure how I feel about his look because I'm so used to his wild spiky hair he had for so long lol.
Hwoarang 🇰🇷is my prince 💗💗💗💗 I love him because, he is the most handsome and brave. He looks at me and it's true.😊 Hwoarang💗💗💗💗 He is so cute and hot.💗
My favorite Tekken character of all time. So many memories with Hwoarang. I used to give the best Tekken players a run for their money back in the Arcade days.

Animator for Hworang's fighting pose: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
XD
Tekken didn’t invent tae kwon do
@@sonlaxxthere are different poses for tae kwon do sand bag
@@sonlaxx please show me any martial artists that hold their arms that stiffly in that position while bouncing im begging you
Lol true
The jump from 3 to tag1 was huuuge 😮
I remember Tag1 graphics actually blowing my mind
Blew my mind as a kid. He was always my go to and I remember screaming about how good Tag 1 looked compared to 3.

Pretty much a PS1 to PS2 graphical leap, since TTT was a launch title.

His Tekken 4 outfit was clean. I like his army one too

@@CJTranceAddictionI think T4 had my favorites. Jin & Yoshimitsu’s designs alone had me sold.
@@CJTranceAddiction So they sold less cause you didn't like the costumes 🤔. You are very impactful person in this industry my friend
I’d love if they could bring back his official military outfit
4th Dan in Tae Kwon Do in T3. T8, He's wearing the stripes for an 8th Dan. That's a believable progression for 27 years of training time.
In tekken universe its like 3 years

@@AceKite00considering he's a prodigy and one of the most powerful martial artists on earth, it actually makes sense
I mean every game from 5 to 7 take place in one year if that makes it better
Favorite Tekken Character
Mine too
Tekken 4 costumes will always hit different, i wish they continued the trend.
They tecnically still did, hwarang in tekken 8 is a good example.
tekken 8 trend is to over design the character to oblivion@@davidgutierrez3856
Bring back
the army one especially
Tekken 5 biker fit > tekken 6 biker fit kinda mid though tbh
Hwoarang is so underrated to me in tekken
If I were Hwoarang, I would get my right knee a check up.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA
......interesting.
Idk why I never saw that lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😅😅
Wow looks like major inflammatory! 😮

My main man Hwoarang!😊
Tekken 3 has it's separate fan base 🎉
What that supposed to mean 😂
@@ap3shotin Pakistan they started playing with Tekken 3 instead of other games. We used to play Tekken 3 for very very long time until 7
@@ap3shot i have only played tekken 3
They should bring back that little dinosaur Gon
@@chachmcgrach2053 He's gone but not forgotten
Jin and Hwoarang were the hottest and most handsome guys for me in the tekken series. Hahah.
Crazy that Tekken 5 came out in 2005, I was still a kid by that time first time playing tekken 3
Thank god they calmed down the supersonic belt swinging from T7. A friend of mine always complained about that whenever he played him 🤣
I mean that's how a belt realistically swings around when in a fighting stance like Hwoarang's, but yeah it's way too much for a game lol
Tekken tag 1 had some of the best graphics on PS2 just look at that shi
A was a launch title for the PS2, so it definitely had to deliver. 😊
@@JumugiDesunra IT HAS NO BUSINESS TO LOOK THAT GOOD FOR A LAUNCH TITLE
Man i am old i was a kid when tekken 3 came out
Now you are a father of 3😭
he is my first husbando when i was a kid. this song taking me back when i was soo obsessed with him i made a whole comic about him lmao
My Ultimate Tekken main. I remember practicing his 10 hit combo in the lab during TTT & TTT2.
That tekken 3 music hits hard. Nostalgia!
One of the ultimate “leg men” in tekken! 🔥
Hwoarang = Korea
Jin = Japan
Xiaoyu = China
Eddy = Brazil

They keep coming back to his iconic white Taekwondo outfit. And I'm glad they do. That's the best one.
Iconic BGM.
His tekken 4 outfits are always my fav, ive mained him since 4 to
THE GOAT! THE GOATTTTTTT!
I like his new uniform. Seoul's tradition that the top but Seoul's badass at the bottom.
Yo it's Boy on Bike

sexy Hwoarang!!!!
He just gets wider and wider lol
I like that you used his Teklen 3 theme song in this video.
It's very iconic 👏😌
No need to change perfection
Tekken 3 Hwoarang 🐐
I don't remember Tekken 6 looking that good tbh

Paling suka hwoarang di tekken 3. Proposional bentuk badan nya pas
Tekken 3 hwaorang in the classic white gi got me into the character, his wild kicks kept me around
My 2nd favorite character in Tekken respectively alongside his rival and my absolute main, Jin.
I hope I'm not the only one who liked the Hwoarang skins from Tekken 4 and 8
I miss his Tekken 4 outfit 😢
J'adore celui de tag 2 et de Tekken 8. C'est mon main depuis Tekken 3. Je l'aime.❤
bro is now eren jaeger
My favorite Tekken character of all time. So many memories with Hwoarang. I used to give the best Tekken players a run for their money back in the Arcade days.
Ttag 1 alternative skin ❤🎉
The white outfit in the beginning sends me straight to 2002
Harada if you’re reading this, I NEED THAT TEKKEN 4 DRIP IN TEKKEN 8!!!! C’mon man, at this point you’re just trolling us.
Nerd fact - they skipped TTT arcade and went straight to the PS2 version
The arcade version looked closer to Tekken 3!
Hwoarang is my favourite ❤⭐️❤️
This man and Kim Kaphwan from Fatal Fury/KOF were the reasons I practiced Taekwondo...at least for my last semester at high school
We know you like our game so here it is again!
His T4 suits were actually 🔥
It's funny how I haven't played that many Tekken games, but I recognize which games are from Ps2 because of the graphics, such nostalgia 😂
After tekken 5 i stop playing because they changed his moveset still my favorite character
Tag 1 still holds up so well my goodness
Tekken 3>>>>>>>>>
He's made consistent gains over the years. Give it 10 more years and he'll fit right in to a streetfighter game with the likes of Ken and Ryu.
Tekken 4 outfit is the best
Tekken 8 is a whole new person lol
he's always been a cool cat
Best of the Best Kicker in Tekken!
Legend!
He was at his best in tekken 4
The graphics shift from T3 on ps1 to T Tag on ps2 was remarkable
Always been my fave character
Love tekken tag above anyone else
He suddenly got racebent into a caucasian in tekken 8 😂
Omg I keep saying it, it's not Hwoarang anymore it's just Warren.
Tekken 5 🔥🔥🔥
Hopefully they’ll give us one of his classic fits as dlc we need that
Haowrang was awesome in tekken 4
That Tekken 3 music was so good so funky and his is the funkiest
Ok, how come does his hair animation are more fluid in TTT than in upcoming series?
Jin and Hwоarang are the best Tekken fighters
Tekken 3 Hwoarang was official🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅
How was taken 6 graphics better than 7s?
I just love that each narrator from each Tekken game says his name in a different way lmao
🎉 HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Tekken 3 was definitely his best days
Other game developers: its all about the male gaze
Harada: hold my beer
My guy!!
I remembered calling him Sonic in Tekken 6 because of his haircute😂
Tekken 4 was the best version
Tekken 4 is the best version!
I just feel like tekken 8 isn’t even hworang anymore.
he's a 8th dan black belt he surpassed his master (6th Dan)
@@samuelsun3560really? i didn’t know that
@@bavvaroisjoestarthat how taek won do rank work.
I feel like he just needs a head accessory lol, I'm not used to seeing him without one. Headband, goggles, eyepatch
@@haruhihirano2633the bun kind of counts I guess
His tekken tag 2 outfit is so clean, love ittt
my fav hworang is the kimono with the hair band
crazy how much things changed as soon as the 2000s hit
They really put bro w/ a Chrome hearts belt and shoes in Tag 2! 😭 Bro be having the best fits next to King
Meu favorito do Tekken ❤
It's my favorite bouncer. Hwoarang.
Hwoarang mi amor!!!!!
Hwoarang from 7 to 8 built different
T3 had the best ost imo, Character themes defined their personalities really well.
Oh no, they gave him a man bun.
T3 is my most favorite look of him hands down
Tekken Tag 2 💥
My Tekken king 👑
T8 had the best costume update in a while.
the tech animation demo that plays for tekken 3 is so dope. i can't help but stop what I'm doing to watch it
Missing SFxT (since I see that game included in your comparisons for characters like Kuma and Christie).
somehow, i love tekken 3 soundtrack the most!
❤❤yes!
his tag 2 costume goes insane
It's his Tekken 5 and 6 costume
