Still playing catch-up in the review department, we just finished up with Tekken 6 here amidst everything else piling up on the desk but had to put together a verdict for fighting game fans everywhere, especially since the series has now leapt across to the Xbox 360 as well as Sony's PS3 and PSP (and the arcade).
With 40 new characters, solid fighting mechanics, just enough progression to keep it mildly fresh yet familiar along with said leap to newer platforms the Tekken series has leapt from the shadows with its sixth instalment in successful fashion. It may not be as flashy as Street Fighter IV, but among the 3D fighting games, Tekken 6 proves which series is king.

While the character customisation is neat, being forced to play through campaign mode to buy/unlock items can be such a drag. It feels rushed, unfinished and the camera angles are just awful. Otherwise everything else is top notch and with a cast of 40 characters to master it's a tonne of replay value, for me personally anyway.
p.s. If the Tekken shirt falls through i want it :(

I also don't get why they (Capcom/Namco) include the fat characters. It's usually Cool/Slick guys, Warrior looking guys, sexy chicks and goofy guys (ie Dan from Street Fighter). Why does anyone want to play as a fat dude? Might as well put a cripple, wheelchair dude or Siamese twin in there
