second time limit makes him even harder to beat. Defeat him to

of the screen on the top row of characters in arcade mode.
Fight against Panda as a Boss: Select Tekken Force Mode
and highlight Kuma and press Triangle at the character
selection screen. The Boss of the backstreets will be Panda,
since you are playing as Kuma.
Unlocking Gon and Dr. Boskonovitch easily: Set the game

and on the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh round, allow your
opponent to take all but five percent of your health before
defeating him. If done correctly, the announcer will say
"Great". Gon or Dr. Boskonovitch will be your
opponent in the next round. Defeat them to unlock them as
playable characters.
