I need that randomized Snoop Dogg video filter.

And anyone who doesn't pick the Ultra Deluxe Gold-Plated Snoop "D"-"O"-Double "G" Dog Pound Arena every single time doesn't deserve to be happy.

Oh Well.

Well from what I understand, it's just going to be an early access thing like with Kunimitsu, Michelle, Angel and Ogre.

Still, playable Snoop Dogg would have been dope.

If Snoop Dogg was a playable character this would be the penultimate fighting game.

He's come a long way from his appearance in the first True Crime game. This is maybe the weirdest crossover.

I kinda wish that we didn't ironically support celebrities for shit like this.

Can we all just be honest about this? That was dumb and it looks dumb and it'll probably just be dumb. F'real home-mii.

But is it dumb or is it duuuuuumb?

I ...I was seriously bummed when I heard that Snoop wasn't a playable character. Tekken thrives on crazy crap, so including a lanky pot-smoking rapper would be right up their alley.

Sorry Marino but Kunimitsu is not as important as Snoop specially in the Tekken fiction.

The only way I'd buy this is if Snoop was a playable character.

Sadly, this does not appear to be the case.

Having Snoop Dogg in Tekken is like putting coca cola on your salad. It just don't work.

Tekken is a semi realistic world so why wouldn't snoop dogg work?

It's an unnecessary celebrity tie in linked to preorder DLC. When someone says Tekken you don't think of snoop dogg.

when I think tekken I think silly so it's a perfect fit really

DAMMIT HOW DARE YOU!

WHEN I PLAY A FIGHTING GAME THAT HAS A WOODEN MAN AND A BEAR I DEMAND A REALISTIC EXPERIENCE DAMMIT!

He needs a playable skin. He will transform into a dog that drinks gin and juice while blowing smoke rings that make the opponent dizzy. Do it.
