New Tekken 6 PSP Footage
Just found this cool vid from Youtube showing off a minute of Tekken 6 gameplay on the PSP. Just a minute, but quite a few things- Character Customization Interface, a DR-like Practice Mode (read: Better than the console games?) and a look at the new PSP-exclusive Gold Rush mode, which lets...

New Tekken 6 PSP Screens
Famitsu of Japan just posted a batch of Tekken 6 screens from the upcoming PSP version. Yeah, the portable Iron Fist Tournament 6 is still on the way, and I have to say, it looks pretty good. Apparently the basic game will be pretty intact even from the arcade and console versions, including th...
Opinion: Fighting Game Film Retrospective
With MK, SF and DOA having their movie adaptations, it’s about time that Tekken got a film to complete the fighting game film set (I don’t think Virtua Fighter will ever get a movie). Apparently the T-movie is vaguely set for sometime in 2010, so we may have a bit of a wait till we see Nina and Ann...

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
I’m not a big fan of shooters, but Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 looks just too epic and awesome to pass up. The gameplay doesn’t see too restrictive and I’m a sucker for big military slugfests, politically-charged conspiracies and lots of firepower. The clincher that got me really intrigu...

Tekken 6 Console Item Moves Video
These moves can change the course of the game… not. Youtube user Byakokoko just posted this cool video showing off most of the Item Moves in Tekken 6 (give or take one or two). In case you didn’t know, Item Moves are ‘unlocked’ by equipping certain items on a character. Some of them are pretty coo...

IGN posts Tekken Movie Trailer Review
No, it’s not a review of the actual movie- just the trailer. Still, it beats no review of anything at all, plus the word seems pretty positive. I still can’t get over the apparent fact that a Tekken movie EXISTS yet is as yet still not generally out. It seems so low profile, like it’s an afterthoug...

Tekken Movie: Poster and Premiere
Here’s a look at the poster for the live-action Tekken movie. Coming up on the tail end of the Tekken 6 marketing efforts, the film premieres today, Nov. 5, in Sta. Monica, CA. Luke Goss (Hellboy 2, Blade 2), who plays Steve Fox, will be present at this red carpet event along with some of [...]
Penny Arcade’s Tekken 6 Comic Finished
Get into the mind of the world’s deadliest marsupials. While we were all waiting for the release of Tekken 6, one of the more unusual bits of marketing for the game was the Roger-centric online comic from the makers of Penny Arcade. The art style was far more cartoony than you’d usually expect...

Tekken 6 PSP Features, Release Date?
For one, there is mention of an original PSP mode, “Gold Rush” (which was also in Tekken DR). This may replace the console versions’ Scenario Campaign mode, which we already know from past articles will not be making it into the PSP game. Perhaps this means earning fight money for all those cu...

Just Desserts: The Lone Gamer's Top 10 Best Tekken Endings
As important as cinematic intros are as a tradition in the Tekken series, even more vital to the enjoyment of fans are the CG Character Endings. Tekken may not have started the trend of giving players a visual resolution as a reward for their struggles, but it has since become synonymous wit...

The Fighter’s Generation Tekken 6 Review
The most dedicated fighting game site I know, The Fighter’s Generation, finally posts their Tekken 6 review. Judging the game from an earnest perspective of a player who knows what he’s talking about and with little of the jaded nonsense of so many mainstream game reviewers, this should b...

Lili says, “Boo!” Happy Halloween from The Lone Gamer and, of course, the lovely Lili Rochefort from Tekken 6, who looks all dressed up for Halloween. It’s her Goth Makeup customization, something I posted about months and months ago, and recently I was able to buy it for the Monaco-based b...

Tekken 6: ‘Behind the Game’ Featurette
Tekken 6 is out. There are many who love the game to pieces (like me) while some hate it for hating’s sake, many wish it could be better. In the wake of this momentous release, Namco-Bandai’s Katsuhiro Harada, who’s been working on the Tekken franchise for the past 15 years, speaks up on the his...

Gametrailers’ Tekken 6 Review
Namco-Bandai’s latest and greatest gets the video review treatment over at Gametrailers. The mostly-positive review cites the game as a ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ kind of thing. Good points include the accessible yet deep gameplay and variety of modes. Once again, Scenario Campaig...

It looked like a cool time, with MarkMan of SD-Tekken and In Joon Hwang, NB’s marketing manager for the game, present. Anyway, it’s a nice thing to watch and kill time with as we count down the hours, with tons of info, fighting game talk and gossip. Check it out!

Two years of waiting…has ENDED! EGADS! Yes, Tekken 6 is in the HOUSE! I’ve been waiting for this game ever since I fell in love with it waaay back in late 2007, so forgive my absolute gushing. I actually had to work a bit to be able to get my game already- some slight begging and [...]

Beware of Spoilers!
The result? Youtube right now is proliferating with Tekken 6 console videos. Gameplay is fine, or even the Intros. There’s one guy posting TONS of footage of the Scenario Campaign, while another is actually posting the Character Prologues and Endings now.

Opinion: Tekken 6 Scenario Campaign Mode: First Impressions
Even though you can switch to other characters and have some lines of dialogue unique to them as you encounter bosses, for the most part Lars’ and Alisa’s story continues regardless, with them continually being the main players in the cinematics.
Opinion: OH MY FREAKIN’ GOSH! PREPARING ORDER!!!
I just checked my order for Tekken 6(PS3, US Version) at Play-Asia, and the status is currently ‘Preparing Order’. What does that mean? They’ve got the game in stock, and are probably wrapping it up to send it out to the courier right NOW. RIGHT FREAKIN’ NOW. If all goes well, it should be out [...]
Official Xbox Magazine UK Reviews Tekken 6
As a result, it’s what they call The Most Complete Fighting Game Available, even up-ending other genre entries like Virtua Fighter 5 (too complex and demanding), Soulcalibur IV (few online options) and MK vs DC Universe (clunky). Check out the full review (and the rest of the latest OXM E-...

Namco Video Podcast shows off Tekken 6 Customization
Here’s the latest episode of Namco’s Video Podcasting Magazine, and they show off some footage of the Character Customization feature in the console version of Tekken 6. Not a lot of stuff, and they show the squealy hosts more than they do the game, but what the heck… it’s something to watch....

Tekken 6 Console: Xbox360 Match Vids

Looking Back: Tekken 6.0 AKA ‘Vanilla’
Taking a trip back to early 2008… With the release of Tekken 6’s console version imminent, I find myself thinking back to the game that started it off… Tekken 6. Well, to be more exact, Tekken 6.0, or ‘Tekken 6 Vanilla’, as it has come to be known among fans. Relatively unknown to the rest of [...]
Opinion: Tekken 6 Character Countdown Part 44 EXTRA: Azazel
Character Analysis: Ah, the Big Bad. In this case, he’s literally BIG. The most massive character ever (although Nancy may give him a run for his money) to appear yet in a Tekken game, Azazel is surely an intimidating sight the first time you see him looming over your fighter, raining down bru...

Giant Bomb previews Tekken 6
Gaming site Giant Bomb takes a ‘quick look’ at the upcoming Ultimate Fighter, Tekken 6 (PS3 version)… as in, about a half-hour’s worth of gameplay and funny banter. The whole time is spent playing VS Battle once more, although we do get a nice look at Ling Xiaoyu’s TapouT shirt customizatio...

The Bobcast features Tekken 6
Youtube channel PlayworksMag just posted a hefty video preview of the console version of Tekken 6, with the correspondents visitng Namco-Bandai’s offices and taking a look at the review build. The preview spans almost 7 minutes and runs through a lot of stuff- they play with a bunch of the...
Opinion: Tekken 6 Console Screencaps!
SD-Tekken has just posted two batches of too-cool screencaps from the console versions of Tekken 6. Taken right from their review copies of the game, the screens show samples of menu screens, snippets of the intro, various modes, story mode prologue art and even a few bits of ending cinema...
Tekken 6 Viral Video: Babes!
Beauty unleashed. In case that previous video preview of Tekken 6 I posted about had too much manliness for you, here’s something for a change. This viral video for the game (part 2, I gather) focuses on the fury of the fairer sex. What does this vid have to do with our much-awaited fighting game...

One year ago…
…today, the official Tekken 6 site was launched. It was a slick-looking site, with slightly-animated figures of Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima glaring at each other, their clothing fluttering in some heavy breeze. The weird creaking noise and sound effects made the whole thing feel more l...

Tekken 6 Console: Getting into Gallery Mode
Movie Theater will give you access to the Opening Intro (which every Tekken fan has probably watched to death by now). Here’s also where you get to watch the 40+ CG Endings for the fighters. Yes, the standard CG character epilogues are back, and from the few glimpses of a few screencaps online...

Fan-made Tekken Movie Trailer!
The Mishima Soap Opera on the Little Big Screen. No, don’t laugh… this amateur short film project made by Youtube and Tekken Zaibatsu member Quantum Optic is actually worth seeing for anyone who loves the Tekken franchise. Originally made for the G4TV Fantastic Fest competition (but it di...

Playing Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny…
And DAMN, do a lot of these A.I. bastards kick my ass! I have to confess though- Soulcalibur really isn’t my main game. I love it, love the graphics, storyline and character, and I always play it, but I never really got into SC’s game system, or combos. I just dabble, knowing how to Guard Impact and...

First Tekken 6 Review in PLAY Magazine (Updated)
From Play Magazine: “There are flaws that hurt the experience, but nothing, nothing, stops Tekken 6 from being an intense, tactical and utterly brilliant fighting game, perfect for anyone with even a fleeting interest in the genre.”
Friday, Oct 2
Opinion: Final Word on Tekken 6’s Story Mode
According to Markman of SD-Tekken and Tekken Zaibatsu (who has a review copy of the game), to find the CG endings, you have to play through Scenario Campaign. Initially only Lars and Alisa will be selectable, but as you encounter characters and beat stages you’ll unlock them for play. Once a...

Tekken 6 Scenario Campaign Gameplay

Wanna see the Tekken 6 Console Intro?
As I expected, the Opening CG intro to Tekken 6 has preceded the actual release of the game. IGN has just posted the console versions’ Opening Cinematic for all to see. Running at almost 3 minutes, the intro surely keeps up the series’ tradition of awesome, cutting-edge pre-rendered cinema...

Super Streetfighter IV Confirmed, New Fighter Debuts
Okay, speculation and hearsay have finally given way to confirmed fact- a new version of Streetfighter IV is on the way. Dubbed nicely Super Streetfighter IV, this stand-alone kinda-sequel will be released as a separate game from SFIV instead of DLC, and will have tons of new stuff includ...
Tekken 6 Character Countdown Part 41: Jack-6
In Tekken 4, a Jack robot was not among the playable roster, although in the events prior to Tekken 5, a squadron of Jack robots, called Jack-4’s, would attack Heihachi and Kazuya Mishima in the Honmaru Shrine. These Jacks appear to be less durable than the previous Jack models, and include...

Tons o’ Tekken 6 Screenshots: Customizations and Cutscenes
Ever the bad-ass, Kazuya can afford to change hairstyles in the middle of a battlefield. PS3 IGN has just posted a gazillion (well, it feels like that) Tekken 6 screenshots. These are a real treat since most of them show off the game’s various customization items (as well as the new interface...
Final Tekken 6 Extra Outfit Revealed…
MarkMan of SD-Tekken finally gave out this cool scan of the last console exclusive outfit in Tekken 6. The only problem is… I don’t know who the heck it’s for! Can anyone tell? Anyway, the artwork/design of this awesome-looking mech suit was done by manga-ka Takayuki Yamaguchi, who create...

Good news for those waiting for news about the handheld version of Tekken 6. 1Up and IGN have just posted Hands-on Impressions of the PSP Tekken 6, and it sounds pretty good. Not just positive, but good. All the fighters are available, and apparently the character models were created from scr...
Fashion Fight! Tekken 6 Console Costume Combat!
Lili and Roger duke it out in their console-exclusive outfits. The first day of TGS seemed to be a pretty slow day for Tekken 6- the TGS2009 trailer posted on the Japanese PSN was just a subtitle-less Gamescom video. Fortunately, the day wasn’t a total loss. The official Japanese Tekken 6 site...

Tekken 6 Blog: Limited Edition Info!
Still, I’m wary of getting the bundle simply because I have a perfectly-fine arcade stick (Hori Real Arcade Pro 3) at home already. The art book looks nice, but really- at 95 pages, this probably just gives perhaps 2 pages or less per character, so it’s not like it’s gonna be like the awesome U...

Opinion: 10 Reasons Why Tekken 6 Is Gonna Kick Butt
The Hottest Babes. Yeah, yeah… every good fighting game has hotties. But Tekken 6 has more of them (count ‘em… nine!) and the best-looking thanks to the game’s gloriously-detailed HD graphics. Uber-beauties like Nina Williams, Lili Rochefort and Asuka Kazama have truly never looked as go...

Musing about Tekken 6 PSP
Some screens of the PSP version of Tekken 6 came out recently, and they look… well… they don’t look as good as the PS3 and Xbox360 screens. But of course, that’s a given. The screens so far seem to at least adequately approximate the look of T6, but of course the character models have more jagged...

Musing about Tekken 6 Console: Rivalries and Settling Scores
Hwoarang VS Devil Jin. This is a bit of a two-in-one. Hwoarang and Jin once shared a friendly rivalry, but that seems to have totally changed after Tekken 5. Good-natured sparring has degenerated into malicious hate and jealousy after Hwoarang was ambushed by Devil Jin. After hard training,...

Opinion: Musing about Tekken 6 Console: 10 Odds and Ends
I really want a Battle Theater or mode where you can pit two characters (customized as you want) in a CPU vs CPU battle. Or maybe even a battle with two Ghost A.I. characters. Tekken 6 is a gorgeous game, and a way to appreciate the graphics in a relaxed way would be nice.

Tekken 6 Character Countdown Part 20: Leo
All that is certain is that we will all be fighting hard to unlock the truth (and we’re not talking about whether or not Kazuya killed Leo’s mom) in the console versions’ Story Mode. Tekken 6 is set for release on the PS3, Xbox360 and PSP this Fall 2009.

Minigames. Over and aside from the ‘major new console mode’ we’ve already talked about, how about some little diversions for some laughs? We’ve already seen Tekken Ball and Tekken Bowl… how about Tekken Tennis? You can already dress up Lili like Jennifer Capriati anyway. Or the secretly-...

It’s still about a week and a half before BR is slated to arrive here in Metro Manila, but thankfully a more-or-less steady stream of videos is making the wait a wee bit easier. The customizations are so far cool for the most part, though I found some characters once again getting the short end...

WOW! A new Tekken 6 trailer for the home console versions has been posted over at Eurogamer TV. It’s got a lot more of the traditional pre-rendered CG cinematics mixed in with in-game action. It also confirms pretty much that the home games will have the BR content and more as Alisa Boskonovit...

Opinion: Musing about Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion
There's really no shortage of speculation in the coming upgrade, given how gamers have been waiting almost a year, impatiently, for Tekken 6 PS3. I'm hoping against hope that Namco does indeed finally announce something about the console port along with BR. I've been waiting so long, Namc...
