• Summary: Spanning over a 14 year legacy, Tekken is among the most popular and well-known gaming brands in the world with the entire franchise selling more than 32 million units to date. Displayed in HD detail, a new era begins in the sixth King of the Iron Fist Tournament complete with intense gameplay modes as well as new features and environments. TEKKEN 6 sees the return of many familiar faces as well as new characters to create the largest line-up the series has ever seen. With a growing roster of fighters, each equipped with their own deadly techniques, moves and attack combinations, TEKKEN 6 will be the best King of Iron Fist Tournament yet. Adding to the already rich gaming experience, a deeper character customization feature will only further enhance the incredible fighting intensity as players go mano-y-mano.

  1. Tekken 6 is probably the best fighting game from this generation.
  2. The game is virtually bursting at the seams with content, and it's got near flawless controls for both newcomers and hardcore fighters alike.
  3. Had Namco spent a bit less time on the forgettable Scenario Campaign and more on sorting out the netcode, however, this could have gone higher. A miracle patch would be very helpful.

  1. i believe tekken is a great game and it will always be better than mortal kombat. this game is very fun and has excellent graphics! it is especially fun if you buy a joystick from gamestop or somewhere? i got mine at xgaming and hooked it up to the arcade machine i got from http://www.recroommasters.com/Default.asp and it works perfectly!

    There's nothing wrong with Tekken 6's gameplay per se. The "bound" system is a fresh addition; the characters shine on 1080P capable XBOX360 and PS3; and it's fun overall, but they botched the console port. Scenario campaign is the worst kind of filler; you can't rank up past 1st dan in Ghost Mode (which is what gave Tekken DR on the PSP most of its replay value); Arcade mode is an afterthought at best; and the ending cinematics are the dullest in the franchise. Rent, don't buy. For a balanced, fun fighting game, wait for Super Street Fighter IV. Expand

  3. I love Tekken. I loved it the moment I played the Tekken 2 demo that came bundled with my Playstation. When I bought Tekken 3 I thought it was the best game ever made. From that moment on, Tekken – to me- was all about “speed”. Within seconds of putting the disc in, you where in the main menu. In half a second you were picking your fighter, then with a mere 3 seconds of loading, the fight was underway! Each battle runs at a lightning fast 60 frames per second. Press Start and Select together and your back at the main menu with no loading screen at all. On top of this fast accessibility, the graphics where amazing. No other games on the Playstation boasted so much detail, at such a fast frame rate. As time went on and the hardware got more advanced Tekken maintained this trend. Tekken Tag Tournament, Tekken 4, Tekken 5 and Tekken Dark Resurrection all had fast loading and envelope pushing visuals. Then came Tekken 6. The first Tekken running on new technology in 8 years. I put in the disc and I’m presented with the one word I thought I’d never see in a Tekken game. ‘LOADING’, oh dear. Not only this, but the dreaded word hangs on the screen for a little too long. It gets worse in the fighter selection menu. As I highlight each fighter, they appear as their in game model like in Tekken Tag. But they take so long to appear, it’s not even worth it. I pick a character and I hear ‘get ready for the next battle!’. Then it sits there for about ten seconds, which in Tekken years is way too long. Then The fight starts and the graphics are pretty crappy. The characters all look like wax work models and native resolution sits the wrong side of 720p, making every thing look jagged and blurry. On top of that, the music is boring and all the arenas bar two of them, are total dump. This isn’t the Tekken I remember. This is a dated, ugly game with unbalanced fighters, a rubbish final boss, poor loading times, bland menus too many characters and a really lazy beat ‘em up style single player campaign. Which despite being a half-baked extra, seems to be the main feature. It sits at the top of the menu and it’s the fastest way to earn the gold you need to access new clothing and attributes for your fighter. Maybe Namco/Bandai put that in there to make the main game look good by comparison. Someone who loves Tekken buying this game, would be like someone who loves their dog buying a DVD in which it gets kicked. Tekken Tag 2 is on it’s way now, and if it doesn’t look better and load a hell of a lot faster, then I’m throwing in my iron studded red gloves for good. Expand
