God damn will you release some info about the game!

Acj23235710d ago

Yeah, they do that don't they. well we will have to wait and see how this game turns out to be, it will be a hit pretty much anyway.

MK_Red5710d ago (Edited 5710d ago )

You're not much into fighting, are you? Tekken the best fighting game ever!?
Even excluding the best fighters of all time (Arcade gods known as Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat 2), the Tekken isn't the best among 3D fighters. Original Soul Calibur is still the best of the modern / 3D fighters and then, there is the upcoming Street Fighter 4.

theKiller5710d ago

but if tekken 6 doesnt bring some sort of new features and innovation the game will FLOP!! at best will be average fighting game, i mean come on use that power of PS3!!! last time i checked the videos of this it sucked in graphics and gameplay was the same!!

i am a ps3, but i want ps3 exclusives from 3rd party to be aas good as first party!!

TheTwelve5710d ago

Excuse you MK? It's all a matter of opinion but I too believe that Tekken is the best fighting series ever. And I'm of the old school and am a big fighting game fan.

MK_Red5710d ago

TheTwelve, true on the opinions. For me, Tekken is one of the worst fighting series. Among the 3D / modern ones, only Soul Calibur and Virtua Fighter are good ones to me as well as MK since I'm a fanboy :D

Muff1nB4k3r5710d ago

I won't get into an argument on what games are the best fighting series, as I'd say I'm relatively new to the scene of gaming, but of the fighting games I've played, I've found Tekken to be pretty easy to get into. (Probably because of my countless hours playing Tekken: Dark Resurrection on my psp.)

@ thekiller

the only problem I find with your argument on the 'new' gameplay, is that a fighting game, or any game in a particular genre, has to keep some of the core mechanics in the game, otherwise it sort of messes up the way older fans of the series experience the game, even if it is for the better, but I've found the controls in Tekken to be a fine piece of work. But perhaps I misinterpreted what you posted?

dro5710d ago (Edited 5710d ago )

street fighter is the best fighting game ever made (-_-)

ReBurn5710d ago

Tekken was the best 3-D fighting series. But it never got better after Tekken 3, in my opinion. I think that Soul Calibur, Namco's other baby, is a better fighter. I hope that Tekken 6 comes back and kicks the series up a notch.

ShinMaster5710d ago

Actually:

Street Fighter = Best 2D fighter.

Tekken = Best 3D fighter.

@ ReBurn:

Soul Calibur is too button-smashy and somewhat cheap.
In Tekken, it's nearly impossible to pull of combos without knowing what the right button combinations are.
And the story in Tekken, if followed, is more interesting as well.

theKiller5710d ago

wat i meant is tekken 6 should bring something new, look at how soul caliber 4 did, it brought the customizing characters making the player make his own characters, so i want for tekken 6 to have something new from tekken 5! besides the graphics were really bad for ps3 exclusive game!! i want them to improve in graphics and feature but not fighting mechanism!! the fighting mechanism in tekken games r the best but look how SC4 improved from SC3!! i want improvement like SC4 did!!

tekken and mortal combat r my favourite fighting series!

SolidSnake935710d ago

It's kind of strange as Namco has the 2 best fighting series Tekken + Soul Calibur. But, Tekken is the favored child.

TradingWarStories5710d ago

Tekken 3 was the best! i loved that little dinosaur that farted! lol, and the beach volleyball game thingy, after tekken 3 things just kinda went kinda crap i spent endless hours on tekken 4 with my brother though, i only ever got one combo right the Jin one which i messed up a few times.

Looks like we have to wait a little longer....

dro5710d ago

true say but il rather have street fighter.

Mr_Kuwabara5710d ago

Yeah, supposedly, thanks to this expansion, we won't get to see this game for an even longer time on consoles.

ReBurn5710d ago

I have to wonder if Namco's going to keep this one exclusive. Since it runs on the PS3 hardware in arcades chances are that it will, but stranger things have happened.

Injustice is better than Tekken.

OhMyGandhi2513d ago (Edited 2513d ago )

Soul Calibur is better than both.
By the way, where the hell is Tekken Tag on this list?

generic-user-name2513d ago

@ohmygandhi

It says in the title 'main lineup'.

XanderZane2513d ago

Virtua Fighters is actually better then Tekken. Still, out of all the Tekken games Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 are probably the best in the series. Soul Calibur is still one of my favorite franchises.

Lynx02072513d ago

Depends if you want an animation movie with ok battles or great fighting game with some animations.

Venoxn4g2513d ago

Tekken tag tournament 2 is probably my favourite (still didn't play 7 unfortunately)

Others would be: 5, 3, tag1, 2

generic-user-name2513d ago

Tekken 4 gets a lot of hate, but it has the best story, atmosphere and soundtrack in the series IMO. Sure the gameplay was very unbalanced thanks to the new stuff they tried out but I'd pick it over Tekken 1 any day of the week.

I'd probably agree with the rest of the list, more or less.

derkasan2513d ago

Hear hear. I had a lot of fun with 4. The tiered levels were kind of odd, but it's got a chill style.

Tekken Tag 2 is still my favorite though.

Swiftfox2513d ago

I'm a bit lost on the hate as well.

I mean the engine was different but they had to update the game to a new generation. The tier list gets criticism but Tekken 5 also had huge issues with this and doesn't get half the bad mouthing. The aesthetics of the game were wonderful, the sound design amazing, the music very memorable, and I loved their attempt to reduce the cast and keep the roster diverse while pushing the most down to earth narrative Tekken has seen or will ever see.

I think the fact Tekken 4 was so different from the other Tekken's is why I like it the most.

generic-user-name2513d ago

Good points. And at least they tried something new with the stage design affecting gameplay, sure it didn't work out well that time, but I wish they kept at that, I think they were on to something there.

Hylian102513d ago

Tekken 5 is the best IMO, and my favorite fighting game of all time.

Kakashi Hatake2513d ago

Preach, and the opening of T5 was amazing! Still the best opening in the series. Sucks that it seems they haven't tried to top it.

gangsta_red2513d ago

Was never a huge fan of the Tekken series but I always loved their presentation, characters and cinematics.

The latest one is just all out epic, especially the last battle between Kazuya and Heihachi.
