Does look cool, but man ive played Tekken3 and TekkanTag to death that I got bored with Tekken4 in 5minutes.
Its one of my Franchise games I just cannot play lol (w Tony Hawk)
Final Fantasy is one of the only I can still play because I think its overhaulled better in each version compared to Tekken or Tony Hawk.
But with the addition of multiplayer and co-op maybe it might add a little appeal back in there for me...

Having been playing this in arcades for two years, I'm sort of sick of it. I might not even buy it. And I'm sort of surprised that they're making a big deal about it going gold when the main part of the game has been complete for at least a year in the form of Tekken 6 Bloodline Rebellion in arcades.

Nah Dark Resurrection was online too. Not sure about the previous games.

I'm looking forward to this. It's the 2nd of the last 2 games I'm supposed to buy this year, but I always end up buying heaps more anyway.

Pity about the online in DR sucking, they've probably got it right this time though. Dr's online play was just tacked on later.

Played tekken 5 to death, havent played it much in the arcades.

Lets just hope the 360's Dpad doesnt screw this game up for me.

Would love it if NZG had a tekken 6 tourney.
