Virtua Fighter was the granddaddy of the 3D fighter but it was Tekken and its vastly superior sequel that brought polygonal fisticuffs to the masses. Featuring an array of colourful characters from around the world (including a lizard, a bear and a kangaroo called Roger) Tekken 2 boasted an incredible cross-section of styles and fighting techniques from Jack 2's mechanical brawling to Bruce's fluid Muay Thai. One of the most celebrated fighting landmarks, Tekken 2 even warranted a namecheck in Shaun of the Dead.

Bastards.
