Software mode to play opening video that appears after loading the game's iso or black screen in hardware mode, afterwards play in hardware mode more clear than software mode for this game. Anyways you can press Circle button to bypass the opening video.
Set Interlacing to Blend bff (slight blur, 1/2 fps) to suppress the vibration of game screen.
FPS: Varies, big scenes like the mission intros tend to slow down badly, but the actual gameplay runs with playable fps most of the time, some parts like the dreadzone arena challenges even at full speed. Average fps something along the lines of 40-50, but again, varies per level.
Other notes: FPS drops don't affect sound so much in this game (yay!), but there are noticeable texture glitches on distant objects. Whether or not they're too distracting is up to you...I've gotten used to them, and some levels have fully normally rendering parts as well.

Hello guys. Just completed my new PC, so I thought I will post some screenshots.
System:
Old PC : C2D E8400@3600MHz, 2x2Gb DDR2 RAM, GTX470@Stock
New PC setting 1: i5 2500K@3600 2x2Gb DDR3 RAM, GTX470@Stock
New PC setting 2: i5 2500K@4400 the rest is same
PCSx2 version and settings: revision 4315, DirectX11 Hardware, 3x scalling, texture filtering.
Speedhacks: recommended (Enable INTC Spin Detection, Enable Wait Loop Detection, mVU Flag Hack)
First picture is always C2D, second picture is i5 at same clockspeed as C2D, third picture is more OCed i5.
Hi people ! With a lot of configuration and research, I finally find out the best Tekken Tag Tournamnet configuration & that's with the old PCSX2 0.9.6 r1888 with 11th of March plugins.
To EASILY find the emulator & the plugins please refer to pcsx2fan thread (the cpu benchmark one) and you will find there the emulator & the 11th of March plugins, they are by far the best to play Tekken Tag..
The bugs will only show up in some movie scenes, but no matter as long as you enjoy the gameplay right?
(EE Misc Hacks)
Tick all of them: INTC Sync Hack, Enable IOP x2 Cycle Rate, Idle Loop Fast-Forward..
and DON'T tick the microVU speedhacks they will decrease the performance, neither activate them in cpu settings.. Tekkens love the SuperVU recompilers more.
Advanced Options :
( EE Recs Options )
Round mode : nearest
Clamp Mode : None
(VU Recs Options )
Round Mode : nearest
Clamp Mode : None
and tick all Flush to Zero & Denormals are Zero settings.
Ingame - Completely playable except for some severe graphical bugs in some parts of the game on hardware mode (and other bugs everywhere else), but nothing that breaks the actual game. Also, extreme slowdown. I would imagine this works on all builds as Raw Danger (NTSC-U) works on, since it seems like there are no different bugs. On software mode in GSDX, the graphics are rendered 99.95% perfectly, but it still seems slow. Might just be because my CPU sucks. On hardware mode, the GFX is definitely the bottlecap. It doesn't seem like the game is that CPU-heavy, and I think I could run it at full speed on hardware mode if it ran properly.
CPU Model: Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor Q8200
