GENERAL/STORY:
Combot is a general-purpose
humanoid robot that Lee Chaolan entered in The King of Iron Fist Tournament
4 as a part of his scheme to win. Combot is unlike any other humanoid robots
developed to date. Besides its default set of motor functions, a powerful
learning AI function enables it to mimic perfectly any human motion captured
on its mocap sensor arrays. With this ability, Combot is suitable for a
wide spectrum of applications from childcare, housekeeping, service industries,
and even military duty. However, this Combot is a unique version customized
for hand-to-hand combat. In fact, its development was rushed so that it
could be finished in time for the Tournament.
Lee
Chaolan’s plan was to have Combat memorize a variety of fighting styles
as it progressed through the Tournament. His ultimate goal was to create
the most powerful hand-to-hand combat weapon in the world and win the Mishima
Zaibatsu at the same time. Unfortunately, the development team did not
have sufficient time to debug Combot. As a result, a few bugs remained
in its memory subsystems when the Tournament started. These bugs prevent
Combot from mimicking more than one person’s moves each time it is powered
up.

REVIEW:
Combot
did a fair job at taking the place
of Mokujin in Tekken 4, even though
some of us Tekken players found ourselves missing Mokujin... That lovable hunk
of wood is just so lovable, which is likely why Mokujin came back in Tekken 5,
and Combot went back to the factory. Combot is still a good design in his own
right, and makes a bit more sense than Mokujin. I
personally would like to see them both in one game!
