3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, but not the hot mess the QQ'ers make it out to be November 1, 2009

By Andrew Kenyon

Platform for Display:PLAYSTATION 3| Edition:Standard|Amazon Verified Purchase

Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   

The Good:

LOTS of characters to play, with plenty of depth and technical mastery required to truly master the game. If memorizing complex juggles, 5-10 hit combos, safe/unsafe moves, and the frame data for your moves and the moves of your opponents sounds like 'good times' for you then this game has got you covered.

The Bad:

Everything else. The graphics look waxy and dated compared to other recent releases (SC4 which was released by the same company...), the scenario campaign is a tedious grind--hint: choose Devil Jin as your free unlockable and thank me later--although it's not the torture others make it out to be, and most are reporting the online play is laggy (although I didn't notice it the few times I went online to remind myself that I am a horrible Kazuya player).

Final verdict:

The hardcore purists will enjoy the game for it's depth and steep skill requirement--and be frustrated with the online play, but those of you just looking for a pretty game to sit on the couch and button-mash with your girlfriend, you might want to skip this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Extra Star From A Long Time Fan October 27, 2009

By Noel Rojas

Platform for Display:PLAYSTATION 3|Edition:Standard

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

Tekken 2 was the First game I ever owned and I liked the character stories and I've been waiting for this game for the longest time now, and I was expecting a lot, I just wanted the story's but they don't really focus on the story's the fights for the story's are short in # but the graphics are Great.

you Have to play campaign mode to unlock characters if you want to see their story

Cons:

Load time (yes this bothers me, because its long enough that there is an awkward silence if other ppl are around watching)

The subtitles are crazy small and hard to read, what are the Tekken ppl thinking? after playing 6 other Tekken games my eyes aren't what they used to be.

Pros:

looks good

story mode battles are quick

this game will keep you entertained for hours

they do a quick recap of the story starting from Tekken (but the subtitles are small and hard to read)

4.0 out of 5 stars Got have your tekken December 4, 2009

By M. Herzog VINE™ VOICE

Tekken has always been a great franchise, with its own fighting system that can't be topped. The presentation is slick, the characters are unique, both in personality as well as fighting, and the gameplay never gets old. While tekken doesn't have the same depth as virtua fighter, its more fun, and more accessible. The controls work just right so if you're a novice you may have some fun, but if you put your time in, you're very rewarded. The only complaint I have it that there are few minor glitches, including a glitchy online system. Though this should be corrected through updates, and there's nothing amazingly innovative that makes the franchise feel fresh. But these things don't hugley detract.

Overally, Tekken 6 is an excellent fight game, with a ton of replayability. Recomended!
