The Tekken 6 Thread - December 08 for PS3 JPN port, no info on US/World

[Jion_Wansu]

sounds like they are turning Tekken 6 into Mortal Kombat 7 (Armageddon) Baji-Quan? A gun like Jax/Stryker, etc.

EDIT: I just read the T6 storyline and yeah it does sound like Mortal Kombat Armageddon...Kazuya VS Jin = Taven VS Daegon, etc... Wonder when Mortal Kombat VS Tekken comes out :rofl:

Seems like No fighting franchise can come up with their own original shit anymore. I mean you got King (I mean Leo) in T6 as well

[Kix]

I think I am going to use the Miguel, especially if he is an evasive character and like Raphael only in a good game.

[iori666]

Miguel looks really cool~

Still Namco is releasing T6 way too soon. T5: DR is owning Virtua Fighter 5 in Japanese arcade and DR is still ranked in the top of the arcade chart since 2005 release with huge income in Japan and Korea

There are no new 3-D fighters coming except Namco Soul Calibur 4.:razz:

[sonicspear64]

Miguel is cool and all but the info on him sounds reminiscent of Vega (Namco... I thought you only copied off of Sega.....:confused:)

[Helter Skelter]

He bares hardly any similarities to any other character. Besides being a bullfighter, most of you are just generalizing.

[Jion_Wansu]

Too bad the arcades folded in the US, otherwise Midway may have made a better Mortal Kombat 7 (Armageddon) game for the arcades

[Ki Shima]

new tekken character? miguel?... thats fucking lee for fucks sake


joking i dont know but it sounds like him, maybe one of his kids or something


ninja edit: tavern and daegon are brothers. this actually could turn out to be a good ending, nothing has been said about the rest of the characters




actually i read up about miguel, he sounds nothing like lee, and he sounds like he loves his sister a bit TOO much.... :confused:

[Gimpy]

From his look, Miguel reminds me of Luis Sera from Resident Evil 4.

[Jida]

Item moves? Evil Jin trying to take over the world...?


Fuck this game.

:rofl::rofl:

[n8archer_XI]

Until Tekken goes online, I refuse to take the series seriously...

[Old_V3]

man this is crazy, Jin is becoming too evil, but this might mean he'll go back to the Mishima-style, which will make alot of people happy, including myself. Miguel seems like an ok character for now. I'll be interested to see how he fights. Zafina seems like just a female Voldo and Leo is gonna be great. About time Tekken has a Hakkyoku-Ken fighter. VF has Akira, DOA has Kokoro and now Tekken has Leo.

[BlodiaVulcan5]

Seems fighting games have been catering to their feminine side as of late. Manliness isn't "in" anymore. At least not in Japan it seems.

you have that wrong, feminine male characters in asia are even manlier than hairy chested brute men according to thier society, there. pay attention.

Screw that. Karate Jin is a hell of alot better than Mishima-style Jin. :lol::cool:

[Ryo Yamazaki]

Bajiquan is way too good of a martial arts style to give to a crappily designed little girl. I wonder if Leo will have some items that make her look more jailbait.

As for Jin, I actually like the fact that he's a warlord now. Imagine if Bush and Kim Jong Il had a EWGF. That would be Jin right now.

The T6 story is reflecting current affairs of the world today. I'm loving it.

As for Miguel.....

Nice to have a new character that doesn't look like complete shit. I look forward to seeing his development in the months to come

The arcadia screens of T6 do look pretty decent, but it's still looking a little too much like DR for my liking. Needs more refinment.

[Dhak]

From his look, Miguel reminds me of Luis Sera from Resident Evil 4.

Sorta.


FYI, he's not a bullfighter, just someone out for revenge, due to the death of his Sister being bombed in a church. I think it has also been stated he has no real fighting experience, as to the arts?

That sounds more like Kazuya. I think Jin's on the Aussie Karate thing, still.

[1/2Man1/2God]

DAMN i wish I had a ps3.I can't wait to play this shit though.The new characters don't look as cool as what there doing with the ones they already have though.Leo looks alot like Rock Howard\Yuki (NGBC).

People still think T6 is gonna be PS3 only?

[Ryo Yamazaki]

Leo's 2nd player outfit look like Lee's Tux when you colour it all white. Not really feeling i, but hey there's customisations...

Zafina 2nd costume is quite sexy but she's still a dry character. Hmmm, can she out slut Anna/Christie? We shall see!

Jin 2nd player outfit is the trench/trousers combo he wears in his T5 ending. Nice.

Miguel's 2p is kinda simplistic, but it works and I like it

Well i know T6 will come out on PS3 first like VF5.I don't know what Namco will T6 but I hope it does come to 360 so I won't have to get a ps3.I use someone elses to play VF5 and I hate doing that.

I feel the same way. Tekken is my favorite fighter but I don't think I'll be buying a PS3 just for it.

[n8archer_XI]

Join the club, it's over there. :confused:It's not that Tekken isn't worthy (I love Tekken DR on PSP), but games like DOA will continue to have an edge with their amazing online play...

[1/2Man1/2God]

It's not that Tekken isn't worthy (I love Tekken DR on PSP), but games like DOA will continue to have an edge with their amazing online play...

Tekken is way better than DOA as a series.The online play is cool but if Tekken doesn't have it, it will still be a better game.Tekken has one of the best fighting game rosters ever and just continues to get better.Tekken may not have online play but you can expect a quality fighting game.

[n8archer_XI]

go tell that to the DOA4 thread...

[Helter Skelter]

I highly doubt we will see Tekken 6 on XBOX 360. Bandai Namco partnered with SONY to design a PS3 based arcade board.

SONY will probably use this to secure their exclusivity.

[Rhio2k]

People still think T6 is gonna be PS3 only?

Yeah! They're fools!! Look at all the OTHER times a canon Tekken game was ported to a non-Sony system, despite the entire series being tailored to playstation hardware architecture! ...oh, wait...

[SFFanatic]

Yeah! They're fools!! Look at all the OTHER times a canon Devil May Cry game was ported to a non-Sony system, despite the entire series being tailored to playstation hardware architecture! ...oh, wait...

Hope you know that VF5 has no online play, and yet, SOMEHOW, manages to give DOA the stairs, every single installment.

[bobino]

if doa online is so amazing why are their tiers for online and offline play? well it doesnt matter because doa is trash

[1/2Man1/2God]

if doa online is so amazing why are their tiers for online and offline play? well it doesnt matter because doa is trash

DOA isn't bad..it's actually a really fun game.It's not better than Tekken though.

[Ki Shima]

tekken has more depth and juggling in tekken is more fun

but yeah dead or alive imo is winning in sales because of the online play (i have no statistics though), its so simplistic and fun that playing online and experiencing slow down isnt so bad

basically tekken is serious enough to frustrate you if you experienced lag during a juggle

[Rioting Soul]

Yeah! They're fools!! Look at all the OTHER times a canon Tekken game was ported to a non-Sony system, despite the entire series being tailored to playstation hardware architecture! ...oh, wait...

I'll be the fool for now. But just you wait.

I'll be the fool for now. But just you wait.

Yeah...I'll just put this down on my "Things to come" list. Right above "Y2k" and "Sex with Reba McEntire".

[Fir]

Pretty much, not that DOA is bad or anything - but the online play clearly helps its sales.

[SFFanatic]

[RyuHikaru]

Sure made me buy it.

[Rioting Soul]

Yeah...I'll just put this down on my "Things to come" list. Right above "Y2k" and "Sex with Reba McEntire".

I'm sensing alittle malice. Everything alright? I do something to irk you?

Just because the arcade hardware is PS3 based and Tekken's history is almost entirely Sony exclusive, does not mean that Tekken is forever Sony exclusive. Things can change. I'll man up if I'm wrong. But the "I told you so" I'm preparing will be most grand.

[SFFanatic]

You guys act like a former PS-only series hasn't jumped boat before.

[Fir]

Marketing almost always determines when a series jumps ship. Mostly when a series has reached its peak and can no longer sale units individually to one system. But, Tekken is still rather strong...

However, we know people go crazy when a new Tekken is developed, and can't wait to buy it. The developers take account to that, and it influences the decision of ending its exclusive ideals.

[Wellman]

Just because Tekken has been PS exclusive so far, doesn't mean it will stay that way. I don't remember a Ace Combat being any other system but the Playstation brand, but Bandai Namco is putting out Ace Combat 6 for the 360.

Bandai Namco is a business, if the PS3 was doing better, then it probably would be exclusive, but since it isn't and the strongest system in Japan is the DS, they will probably release it on the 360 as well. But I am going under the assumution that the PS3 doesn't improve dramatically by at least around fall.

[Zulu]

ANYWAY...Miguel looks...lol...dope.

[MarkMan]

New pics... www.sdtekken.com ...

[Son Them All]

Graphics have gotten ALOT better from when I first saw it. Leo is trying to be King, Miguel is ALL roided up so all you people who complain about metro sexual characters can just shut the fuck up and always pick Miguel.

[n8archer_XI]

And you do realize those mean absolutely nothing right?on that note, you have no argument...

[Rioting Soul]

ah, but they do well to express the "quality" factor of them...

No, they just express(and control) how the mainstream sees the game. The majority of them go to fighting game forums and just copy and paste the dominant opinion of the game. Every fucking time I read a Virtua Fighter review they are quick to say it's the deepest 3D fighter. And even though I tend to agree, you KNOW that they'd start umming and ahhing if you asked them what's so deep about VF.

[Humbag]

If you want roid power, paul is in with that as well as craig.

Miguel looks fuckin cool now. Cant wait to see his style.

Even more truth. I think it's deep, but I don't think it's the "deepest". Only real fact you can come up with about VF is that it was the first 3d fighting series.

I think Fighting games as a whole are as "deep" as they are "Perfect", and if you take that too seriously, you've already missed the point.

[RaishinX]

Uhhh no. There are factual things like how there's a counter to a counter and the game doesn't degenerate into turtling and escaping throws on reaction. Things like how the game (at high levels) is more than who can bait the best. If you really think the game is called deeper because of popular opinion you got a lot to learn about it.

[Shadowcuz]

Boy did I call it on that one. I know about VF's nuances. The point is, one game is deep for its own reasons, and another one is deep for its own reasons. VF and Tekken (FOR EXAMPLE) do not play the same, therefore, "Depth" is in the eye of the beholder on that one. Therefore, its stupid to just come out and say that VF is the deepest fighter out there, because not everyone is going to see it that way. That was the point I was making...geez.

[KrsJin]

I think Fighting games as a whole are as "deep" as they are "Perfect", and if you take that too seriously, you've already missed the point.

Yeah this is true. I'm so sick of people even using the term deep, or depth. It's like some just toss it out there mindlessly without puting thought into it. I also hate the idea that depth = a good fighter. I favor games that are commonly accepted as being "deep" (such as VF), and I still hate this term. I use to be guilty of using it too, I suppose I saw the light a bit back when arguing against it lol.

It's seriously goten to the point where if someone begins an argument as to why a game is good, with using depth as their argument, I just stop listening all together. I don't even plan to argue with them or convince them otherwise, I just consider them a lost cause lol.

That all said though :) It would however, be fair to say, that VF is the most 'complex' 3D fighter out there currently. I don't see how you could argue against that.

Alot of the cast has returned. Christie is back, :)

[BBCampbell]

So, I haven't been keeping tabs on this game for a while (mostly because it's going to be on a system I have no intention of getting. Fuck Kaz Hirai and his $599 US dollars, I can get both a Wii and an X360 for a combined total of $610 before tax.) Though I am fan of Tekken...

Anyway:

- Leo's a girl? For the longest time, I thought that she was Namco's Rock Howard clone. And she uses Hakkyoku Ken? Does that mean that she'll have the Stun Palm of Doom? (Akira from VF uses that style)

- So, Jin's ending is canon... Interesting... Who'd've thought that Nature Boy would have brought on WW3? Also, it turns out that Heihachi's appearance in T5 was completely non-canon as he MISSED THE WHOLE TOURNAMENT. ....and I though Paul had it rough in T2...

- Speaking of which: Bandai/Namco needs to make a spinoff entitled: Tekken: BRING IT ON, YA ALIENS! which consists of Paul flying around the universe, deathfisting anything in his path.

[sonicspear64]

^It's probably gonna be like a rich man's Death by Degrees or Devil Within because nothing is poorer than those games...:rofl:

[RaishinX]

Did Kazuya fall through a glass floor or something? WTF is all that shit at the bottom left hand corner? :confused:

I believe she uses Baji Quan although Hakkyoku Ken is based off of that style so i guess there would be similiarities.

There's quite a few X_X !

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

Collapsing stages and this "Rage" system don't sound like good ideas to me, but we'll see.

[sonicspear64]

Namco's pretty much trying to make Tekken 6 the defining 3D fighter (hand to hand combat of course) of the generation. They've been borrowing elements from the other popular 3D fighters (DOA and VF).

[Shadowcuz]

"Rage" system..? 0_o

[axeman61]

Collapsing stages? Okay.
Rage system? NOT okay. Unless you had to power up. Taking more damage the more you get beat down is a bad idea unless the damage increase is nothing they should be bragging about.

[Xero Kaiser]

Sounds cool to me. I doubt they're going to go overboard with the damage increase.

[Rhio2k]

"Bruce breeds chickens" as his item attack? :confused:...is this gonna be like that one South Park ep with the bookmobile?

did they ever explain the shotgun thing with bryan from the trailer? i havent kept up with the t6 news.

[Son Them All]

The rage system sounds like a glorified rubber band system. Strategically take some damage and all of a sudden your regular 7 hit juggle, is a monster and the turning point of the match. Hopefully this doesn't turn into another Tekken4 and is just unplayable to me. As long as the stages stay flat, I don't give a shit what else they do.

They're trying out something new so it might be broken. Hope its isnt but I have a feeling it will be.

[Stanman]

It sounds stupid, but then again I guess Samurai Showdown has a system like this. How did it work out for those games?

Beastly cabinet, I doubt I'll ever see one ever though. Man, and 4 more characters? The roster is getting pretty damn big. I noticed Ganryu isn't a confirmed return on there though, are there any other names not on there? I feel they could do without Armor King...

Raven, Marduk, and Lee doesnt seem to be on that list.

[Stanman]

Raven, Marduk, and Lee doesnt seem to be on that list.

Hmm... I would much rather them ditch all of the DR character than take them out. Armor King, Dragunov, and Lili aren't particularly interesting.

[AlphaDragoon]

More and more this game sounds like garbage. Hopefully they didn't have this same stroke of "inspiration" with Soul Calibur 4. Although, destructable environments = about fucking time.

[Weecho]

Although, destructable environments = about fucking time.

I dont know. Just seems that they're trying to appeal to the DOA crowd with that.

[Overworld]

Well the changes sound interesting, I'm always in favor of any company trying to change it up. More of the same is always safe, but new stuff piques my interest more.

Though they need to tone down the damage a bit for the rage system.

[Shadowcuz]

Hmm... I would much rather them ditch all of the DR character than take them out. Armor King, Dragunov, and Lili aren't particularly interesting.

I would prefer them to keep the DR characters and improve them.

[Weecho]

I would prefer them to keep the DR characters and improve them.
Yeah. Fix Lili's fuckin hitboxes.

[Superking]

They already said in previous press releases and interviews that the entire cast of DR will return in addition to the new characters.

[Son Them All]

Hmm... I would much rather them ditch all of the DR character than take them out. Armor King, Dragunov, and Lili aren't particularly interesting.

You sir, are fuckin nuts. Brand new characters introduced to Tekken games easily have the most innovative styles in the series. So the MOST RECENT new characters are easily some of the most compelling. And plus, Armor is and always will be that dude, I won't tolerate such blasphemy...fucking Christ on a bagel.

[Shadowcuz]

Nice, i cant wait to play the new and improved(i hope) Raven and Dragunov:cool:

[Ryo Yamazaki]

The deluxe cab is 36 THOUSAND dollars!? It's almost like the deal is, 'buy 5 HD monitors, get T6 free' :lol:

Rage just sounds like netsu power-up and it is a shit idea in a one on one format. Wasn't that great in TTT either imo.

Item enhancements would only be a good idea for a one player game but NOT for vs mode. Character advantage is enough, so whats the point of having item advantage?

Items providing new movements? What, like a full screen crouch dash? Mid-air Hayashida step? :lame: I think these proposed new movements should be as part of a specific character or characters.

I just find the idea of unlocking a moveset quite ludicrous

Everything else I like the sound of tho (would love to play on that deluxe cab). I especially like the idea of old moves redone because some characters (LAW) badly need it.

[Ryo Yamazaki]

It looks like they're going for polygon models on the select screen instead of cg art ala DOA which is something I like very much

[sonicspear64]

^Same thing with VF iirc..

[Jr7891]

There are 40 slots on the Character select screen. Tekken 5 DR had 37 characters. If Jinpachi is gone and Mokujin isn't on the screen, that makes 35 from DR and the 3 new characters. So, 39 characters can be considered confirmed. How many characters is supposed to be in the game?

[Shifty Nevers]

i'm feel'in the hype

[Darkshine]

They need to cut one of the Kings and either Eddy or Christie, methinks.

[Xiii]

Eddy and Christie are almost like perfect palette swaps. Aside from hearing that Eddy just has longer limbs, it would be nice if they were a bit more different like King and AKing.

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

http://ruliweb2.empas.com/ruliboard/read.htm?num=27700&table=game_ps04&main=ps

Lets try that agian... :)

Wow, didn't expect that much new shit from all at once, definitely liking what I'm seeing so far. Graphics look very nice in my opinion, since now they no longer look like a small upgrade from Tekken 5DR.

[Switch Blade]

36.000 $ for the deluxe arcade cabinet. Holy crap, this is crazy O_O Anyway, Tekken 6 looks dope, man I hope this game is gonna kick ass.

[Stanman]

Eddy and Christie are almost like perfect palette swaps. Aside from hearing that Eddy just has longer limbs, it would be nice if they were a bit more different like King and AKing.

They each have their own throws too. I'm pretty sure people play eddy still because of the longer limbs.

It would seem Armor king in his DR form is just a shittier King in most aspects.

[Ryo Yamazaki]

[EDIT] My opinion of the graphics has changed since seeing the Kaz v Devil Jin pics. It does look really good. The lighting in particular is superb.

That Juila pic looks like she's doing corkscrew blow :lol:.
Anna looks kinds ugly in that nurses uniform.
The hit effects look like rpg magic graphics (which I like)
:lol: at that the Kaz customisation. Blinged-Out-Yakuza-Thug-Ninja FTW! I want to play Kaz now just to rock that suit

[Kix]

Wow, didn't expect that much new shit from all at once, definitely liking what I'm seeing so far. Graphics look very nice in my opinion, since now they no longer look like a small upgrade from Tekken 5DR.

Yeah, I agree. I actually was enjoying looking at the pictures and there were a lot of them. Sweet.

[m121akuma]

When does location testing for this game start and where?

[FullMetalRoss]

It looks like the "item specific" moves are just joke moves, like taunts, sorta like christie's 1,3,4 (?cmd?) the hand wave.

Edit: Just read the tekken blog again, and from the people who played at the show, the item moves are all just joke or taunt moves at least so far.

Was that Marduk hitting someone with a blunt object like a home-run hit? I'm a little skeptical with the usage of items but that was tight as hell.

[JAMMAR]

I thought Rage will be more like Netsu in TTT... but if it's going to be a low lifebar deal like it's being described as... on paper it spells bad design IMO.

[Rojo]

Cave Man club.

Anna threw a shoe at Nina's face, nice.

Rage is so K-Groove. Too much damage as well.

[Shadowcuz]

"After hellsweep hits up close ONLY, 1+4 can connect, but it won’t if you do dash 1+4. "

ouch

[Deezo]

I have mixed feelings on this. It'll be nasty if you're winning, and get random low crushed by a raged hop kick into death and then it's a wrap. It's a wrap for that ass. That'd be really nasty actually.

[m121akuma]

"Rage" mode does make me a little nervous, but it's not too bad. It's not like it hasn't been done in a fighting game before, and done successfully. As long as it's well balanced, I'll be fine. The item attacks also sound a bit sketchy, but if they are mainly just joke stuff, again, it's all good. I'm more excited than nervous about this game. DR has become one of my favorite 3D fighters out there, and if Namco keeps going in that direction, I'm all for it.

[Reno]

If they make rage mode so that there's actual consequences to using it (assuming that you have to activate it when your life is low) then it'd be good. I'm hoping for something like taking block damage or not being able to block at all or something along those lines. There's gotta be a downside to the damage bonus

Thanks to mukumuku, zechs and geesendou for the latest update!

TEKKEN 6 GENERAL INFO

* Live Monitor panel now has touch screen functionality. You can view either the live match or view other matches recorded throughout Japan.
* In T5DR, to be broadcasted on TEKKEN-NET live monitors you had to be Fujin ranked or above. For Tekken 6 it allows lower ranked matches to be broadcasted on the live network.
* Ranking starts at Beginner.
* Rankings will now be international.
* Tekken Teams/Clans can use an original common item.
* Teams/Clans will now be assigned a rank/level.
* You can achieve medals by completing certain tasks. Much like Virtua Fighter 5. For example, get a 15 win streak, receive a 15 win streak medal/reward.
* There are 12 total stages. Some stages are connected to each other. Not all stages will have a linked stage.
* There will still be infinite stages.
* For breakable stages, there are unique combos/juggles you can perform on those stages only.
* Namco does not intend to do minor patches/tweaks to the game(like VF5 does), instead they plan on launching the game and having it as balanced as possible in November.
* The new Tekken 6 arcade board has faster read/load times than Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection.

CHARACTER SPECIFIC INFORMATION

ZAFINA

* d/f+2 is a high crush.

HEIHACHI MISHIMA

* d/f+1,2 (twin pistons) has been removed. Instead the new move is d/f+1 into a new second hit. It no longer launches, it’s more like a hammer fist move that causes knockdown.
* New move similar to Kazuya’s d/f+3, causes unbreakable stun on CH.
* Heihachi has a new low move.
* EWGF, f,f+2, d+1 and hellsweep seem to be the same.

KAZUYA MISHIMA

* Kazuya seems to be the strongest of the Mishimas now.
* Kazuya has a new string, 1,2,4,3. The last kick is mid.
* New move, d/f+3,1
* New move, b+1+2 which is similar to Heihachi’s b+2. Does not stun on CH.
* New mid, mid string. b+1,2.

JIN KAZAMA

* From the limited play time with Jin, there doesn’t seem to be any noticeable changes with his game play.

More updates soon!

[Shadowcuz]

Im interested to see what makes Kaz so strong this time around

[Saotome Kaneda]

Im interested to see what makes Kaz so strong this time around
He doesn't seem to have lost anything, unlike Hei's 10f or whatever Twin Pistons(which he had the last standing ones, everyone else is WS now), and DJin losing everything that he didn't need in the first place.

Kaz was always solid in 5/DR, but now that DJ and Hei no longer outshine him in most categories, he moves up. Just like the nerfs changing the tiers in 5.1->DR.

[Gimpy]

Damn did they have a Washington, D.C. stage?

[Old_V3]

what the hell was that thing traped in the crystal?

I was just gonna ask that too, maybe the new boss of the game

[ShinkuuR]

If they make rage mode so that there's actual consequences to using it (assuming that you have to activate it when your life is low) then it'd be good. I'm hoping for something like taking block damage or not being able to block at all or something along those lines. There's gotta be a downside to the damage bonus

I like this post.

I'm still skeptical about the Rage system, but it would be nice if players can select the health needed for it to activate(like MOTW's TOP system). Having it balanced is the main key though.

I'm REALLY glad DJ got toned down. All that extra stuff he got in DR that he didn't need was stupid.

[celcius]

I wonder how "linked stages" will affect the game...

[Rojo]

I was just gonna ask that too, maybe the new boss of the game

Looks like that one esper from Final fantasy 12, with the sand storm and lightning attacks. Arab/egyptian like .


MarkMan: are there no match videos yet? you would think there would have been something out there by now.
How long will this testing go on?

[dbostick]

The graphics look exceptional, perhaps better than VF5. I have faith that the gameplay will not suffer from T4 syndrome and they're really hinting at possible online play for PS3 with talks of clans and such.

[Son Them All]

The clan thing sounds like a really good idea, cuz alot of my boys play Tekken as well, and really teaming up with them against competition is quite the enticing proposition.

[Kix]

I hope we get something new for Jin.

[Rioting Soul]

* Namco does not intend to do minor patches/tweaks to the game(like VF5 does), instead they plan on launching the game and having it as balanced as possible in November.

That's gonna come back to bite us in the ass.

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

That's gonna come back to bite us in the ass.

The truth.

[ZEBES]

seriously, is Leo man or woman?

[Shifty Nevers]

seriously, is Leo man or woman?

woman

[Son Them All]

That's gonna come back to bite us in the ass.

Worrrd. Miguel+2 unspotted infinites >>> rest of cast

[Ryujin]

lol at previous statement. Isnt miguel a matador? Summons bulls?

So the arcade cabinet looks really really nice but how many arcades in America will have that later on?

I dont even see alot of virtua fighter 5 cabs around me in Florida.

[Superking]

I dont even see alot of virtua fighter 5 cabs around me in Florida.

You don't see VF5 cabs period outside of Japan since Sega only has VF5 for LEASE within Japan only.

did law always have that dragon graphix thing when he attack?

Wow, that's actually pretty neat looking. Never noticed it before.

[Ouroborus]

kazuya finally looks like he aged.

[AlphaDragoon]

The graphics look oversaturated to high hell thanks to "zomg its teh next gen bloom lights hay guys lets overdo it".

Fixed. Character and environment models are good, but that lighting looks like ass. They need to tone that shit down, for real.

[Ki Shima]

kazuya finally looks like he aged.

imaginary rep for the psylocke av :party:

[marshun]

Wow, that's actually pretty neat looking. Never noticed it before.

if you look at his face you will notice they finally shaved that dead
rat off his face:china:

[Marty]

Haha, next gen = shinier.

[Ki Shima]

if you look at his face you will notice they finally shaved that dead

i kinda wanna see law with long shaggy hair and a beard, i think that look would suit him and make forrest law fit in perfectly

unless forrest will look completely diffrent now, which would be even better

[ReXXXSoprano]

Oh yeah the wait is a killer. The character select looks real slick. I like that.
But this http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/docs/20070619/tk655.htm
I don't know what to say about this. 1970's Japaneese Pimp, A Fashionista Ninja, I don't know. You be the judge.

[ruthless_nash]

heihachi = patrick stewart

[yungb254]

Stages remind me of Tekken 4. Really hope the rage system doesn't break the game.

[Pablo_the_Mex]

These games need to stop being so damn shiny. It looks stupid.

[PsychoSquall]

I don't know the source, I just found it in an imageboard

[Gimpy]

I don't know the source, I just found it in an imageboard

I still prefer white flame Jin.

[Snowman]

It looks alot like T3 Jin with some mixes. Like the glove design has gone back to ball studs, like Kazuya used and Jin in T3.. And the pants have gone flame glow like his in T3.

Is it because he's in control of the Zaibatsu? I think thats the storyline they're using. Maybe popular demand brought it back.

[Old_V3]

yo more character changes added to sdtekken.com

says that Law's animations/movement is similar to Maxi's from Soul Calibur. Hmm, last time I checked, Law and Maxi's stances were pretty similar already, unless they're talkin about how Maxi's 8-Way runs and all, then that'll be cool.

[ShinkuuR]

Big thanks to MarkMan for this info. Posted from TZ.


Special thanks to mukumuku, TEKKENBBS, and 2CH game fight posters for the following information!

TEKKEN 6 CHARACTER SPECIFIC INFO

ASUKA KAZAMA

* Asuka’s old f,f+2 from T5DR is now done by inputting SS+2.
* Her new f,f+2 is the 2nd hit from d/f+1,2 string in DR. On counter hit it shifts into the auto throw.
* New string, 2,1,1+2. The last hit throws the opponent down and can be cancelled.
* Asuka can now do the last kick of b+2,1+2,4 as a normal move.
* Most of her animation is the same as T5DR.

MARSHALL LAW

* Law has a new low, high string. His right foot kicks the opponent on their shin, the left leg then throws out a high kick. This move is from the final fight in Bruce Lee’s “Way of the Dragon” (Also called “Return of the Dragon”.
* Law had a new costume that was similar to the one where Bruce Lee fought Sammo Hung in “Game of Death.”
* His item move is done with the nunchaku. The animation is similar to Maxi’s movement in Soul Calibur.
* You can use Law’s item move infinitely. When you do the move Law takes out the nunchuaku to do the hit attack then hides it afterwards.
* Law’s movement/animation has changed and is more like Maxi’s movement from Soul Calibur.
* DSS/DFS seems to be the same as T5DR.
* The animation for b+1,2,1 is different.
* Many of the other moves have different animations as well.

RAVEN

* New move. FC 1+2, Raven vanishes for a short period of time. During the move you can input 4 and his d/f+3+4 from T5DR comes out. Inputting 2 during the move will give you his old d/f+1+2 from T5DR.
* The command of d/f+1+2 and d/f+3+4 are no longer there.




Special thanks to mukumuku, TEKKENBBS, and 2CH game fight posters for the following information!

TEKKEN 6 CHARACTER SPECIFIC INFO

STEVE FOX

* Steve has a new stance. It’s the “peek a boo” stance done by inputting f+3+4 or 3+4, f+3+4. The motion is similar to the main character’s fighting style in Hajime No Ippo.
* From the “peek a boo” stance, you can use a 1 or 2 punch. His 1+3 throw from the stance is 6-8 punches. If the throw whiffs, you recover back in “peek a boo” stance.
* According to Namco staff, you are stationary during the stance and can’t do any movement.
* d/f+2 launches on counter hit only.
* b+1 range is longer. It is now easier to connect combos on counter hit.
* f,b+1,1,2,1 is either removed from the game or has a completely new notation.
* Animation on the third hit of 1,1,2 has been altered.
* f,f,N+2 in T5DR has changed it’s input back to f,f+2(like in Tekken 4). The T5DR f,f+2 was either removed or has a new notation.
* d/f+1+2 sonic fang pushes back less on guard, compared to T5DR.

BAEK DOO SAN

* New move. SS+3+4 which launches on hit.
* Animation on WS+4 strings were changed slightly.
* According to Namco staff, Baek has fewer animation changes than most characters because his animations were already redone in T5DR.

HWOARANG

* New move. f,N,d,d/f+3. Mid kick, with long range.
* LFS 3,3, strings/cancels were removed.
* New moves in LFS. One long rage move and another move that tracks to the left side.
* f,N,d/f+4 Talon Sky Rocket(Just Frame Sky Rocket) is now more difficult to do than T5DR.
* WS+4,4 range has been increased.

More updates as it comes!

[Son Them All]

The Law info has me curious. When I think about it, Maxi isn't really any close to Bruce Lee than old Law was so I don't see where animating more like him is consistent with saying he'll play more like Lee this time. And nunchucks indefinitely? What is this, Soul Calibur? Get that item bullshit OUT OF HERE.

[AlphaDragoon]

Jin's new gloves look cool...but I still don't like the fact that he's EEEVVVVVIIIILLLL in this game. Well, that and those ball studs like Kaz = fail compared to that badass design on his T4/T5 gloves.

EDIT: Yep, old Jin's outfit looked better. And where the fuck's his hoodie (note: kickass T4 one, not fugly purple T5 one)? At least that new 2P outfit's cool.

[Riot.EXE]

And nunchucks indefinitely? What is this, Soul Calibur? Get that item bullshit OUT OF HERE.

Me too...but oddly enough, Law is my main character in the Tekkens, and Maxi is my main character in the Soul Caliburs...Namco never fucked up either of them from game to game...so as far as I'm concerned, I'm fine right now...as for everyone else...hopefully your game doesn't get royally fucked by the changes in T6...but we fighters always figure SOMETHING out in the end, right?

[Daddyneptune]

Man I'm waiting on those Feng and Dragonov changes.

[Mr. Sinister]

Steve fox has the "peek a boo" stance. Sweet.

Now all they have to do is give him the customizations to make him look like Ippo.

[Daddyneptune]

^^^ Yeah you already know. Or they can have him look like Mashiba.

[Tigerboi]

Jin's new gloves look cool...but I still don't like the fact that he's EEEVVVVVIIIILLLL in this game. Well, that and those ball studs like Kaz = fail compared to that badass design on his T4/T5 gloves.


Seeing as Jin's Mission was to erase the EEEVVVVVVIIIILLLLL in T5, I doubt that's the case. I think the devil gene may have majority control now. It's the only way it will make since.

But it would be tight IMO if Jin was like "fuck it, the zaibatsu is mine, and I'ma blow shit up cuz ya'll suck."

[bbq sauce]

New dude looks gay.

And if Bryan doesn't have MAD recovery on that gun, then he's gonna be straight up broke.

[4r5]

In the first trailer, it looked like you could hit Bryan with a wakeup attack before he could put away his gun.

[Jida]

Oh yeah the wait is a killer. The character select looks real slick. I like that.
But this http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/docs/20070619/tk655.htm
I don't know what to say about this. 1970's Japaneese Pimp, A Fashionista Ninja, I don't know. You be the judge.

Aside from the hideous colors he was all good 'til I saw his lower half. I kinda get the feeling that Kaz would make a shit-tastic ninja. I'm interested in:

A- His "very short" hair from DR
B- Shoulder plates " "
C-That shirt he had in the video.

Oh yeah; stupid bling/shades is a must.

EDIT: Goddammit I want Kunimitsu!

[WasFemto]

You don't see VF5 cabs period outside of Japan since Sega only has VF5 for LEASE within Japan only.

Apparently there is one in Chicago and Tempe(Sabre, confirmation?) and we *might* get one here in Seattle.


Am I the only one who thinks this game looks like something last-gen? It's not the bloom effect either(didn't even know that was being used).

[Jida]

It does look a tad rusty but I'm confident it'll look great when it's finally released.

[WasFemto]

Yeah I'm thinking these are just shitty teaser shots and when it's finally release it'll be like BAM!, here's the real screen shots.

[Rhio2k]

I don't know the source, I just found it in an imageboard

Well, at least Namco's cgi group is getting better at doing realistic biceps and triceps...the arm muscles in the previous games were like "wtf? it's like everybody had their shit torn/blown and healed wrong".

[MagnetiX]

Ok, i'm by no means a Tekken player...I only used to play it at the arcade when I got bored and picked Law and I would just press the kick buttons and spam his flip kicks...rofl.

But anyways...I watched the preview video and it doesn't look like much of an upgrade. I think it's nice, but I was expecting something more spectacular, especially since it's on the PS3. And also, I don't know if this has been mentioned (I'm sure it has - sorry, I didn't read the thread) but damn, why are they highlighting everything? They overuse the saturation and lighting effects on this one - trying to make it brighter and shinier. Hurts a little on the eyes, imo.

[Jida]

^ Tekken's like that: Inch by inch.
At this point I'm kinda thinkin' that Tekken doesn't have a lot of room for growth/change (Tekken 4). People love the product and are hella attached, but at the same time, get tired of the same ol' same ol'.

The shiny shit is just some Next-Gen trend. Hopefully it'll go away eventually but I guess Namco (and everyone else) is trying to showcase their creations to the best of their ability. You'd be surprised how well a shiny object can catch someone's attention (or maybe you wouldn't). If it just looks normal/gritty people might pass on a game genre they probably weren't that interested in to begin with.

[De4dEyE]

Weird. According to the changes, Steve has a peek a boo stance with 3+4. What the hell is alb gonna be now? :confused:

[Shadowcuz]

Weird. According to the changes, Steve has a peek a boo stance with 3+4. What the hell is alb gonna be now? :confused:

Albatross is BROKEN!1

[Riot.EXE]

Apparently there is one in Chicago and Tempe(Sabre, confirmation?) and we *might* get one here in Seattle.


Am I the only one who thinks this game looks like something last-gen? It's not the bloom effect either(didn't even know that was being used).

if by Chicago, you mean The Sega Gameworks in Schaumburg (Streets of Woodfield)...that info was true at one point, as I played it there myself...but that Gameworks is merely a Test Location...VF5 hasn't been there for quite some time...and I have no idea where they sent it off to.

[AlphaDragoon]

Seeing as Jin's Mission was to erase the EEEVVVVVVIIIILLLLL in T5, I doubt that's the case. I think the devil gene may have majority control now. It's the only way it will make since.

This is also what I think happened...but dammit Namco, now I have to wait for a possible T7 to get non-Devil controlled awesome Jin back.

[Saotome Kaneda]

Weird. According to the changes, Steve has a peek a boo stance with 3+4. What the hell is alb gonna be now? :confused:
f+3+4?

[SaiST]

Maybe I'm not reading it correctly, but I think the 3+4 for his Albatross is still there. f+3+4 after the Albatross puts you into peek-a-boo.

[Rojo]

http://tekkenbbs.org/


^ can anyone translate some of that stuff.

Character specifics.

[De4dEyE]

f+3+4?

I don't think so, the f+3+4 command was listed as being also the peek a boo trigger. In fact, it's listed twice, which leads me to believe that the 2nd f+3+4 was meant to be b+3+4 and that's why I'm wondering about it. o.o

[SaiST]

The first f+3+4 is from a standing position, second is from the Albatross.

Albatross is still 3+4.

[AlphaDragoon]

Maybe I'm not reading it correctly, but I think the 3+4 for his Albatross is still there. f+3+4 after the Albatross puts you into peek-a-boo.

Y'know Sai, I think this is like the first time I've ever seen you post in FGD. :rofl:

[Saotome Kaneda]

I don't think so, the f+3+4 command was listed as being also the peek a boo trigger. In fact, it's listed twice, which leads me to believe that the 2nd f+3+4 was meant to be b+3+4 and that's why I'm wondering about it. o.o
In that case Peekaboo is f+3+4(or alb f+3+4) and alb is still gay.

[Rhio2k]

That's...a lot of squares.

[kev_the_bev]

if you look at his face you will notice they finally shaved that dead
rat off his face:china:

maybe that's forest? i doubt it though.

[marshun]

maybe that's forest? i doubt it though.

I'll be willing to consider that possabililty too.

* Yoshimitsu has a new stance/transition.

[AlphaDragoon]

LOL, apparently Project Soul put too much influence into Tekken, now Law's ripping off Maxi. :rofl:

[Edi. E]

Man Miguel looks nice. A traditional Mexican look combined with a good amount of facial hair and an excellent outfit. I bet you can eat breakfast of that tight latino ass. You know, I really like the designs of the new characters, and I do see why Leo looks girly. Zafina or whatever is nice looking. She copies Anna though as she can fight in a long skirt.

I wish I had a PS3 though. I want this game so much. Four more characters are yet to be revealed? Will they be new or redesigns of old characters?

[Rioting Soul]

Good shit Bruce.

Namco please don't forget about tracking for all chracters.

That's like saying most of the other characters are copying each other because they fight in pants.

[Saotome Kaneda]

REMOVED RANT ON ERRONEOUS LEE SHIAT

Bruce's f+3 though, that's BS, give that CH stun back. It's hard enough baiting for CH with that.


Bryan 1+3+4 taunt should be juggle filler like back in the early T3/TTT days, fuck this free launcher/jabs/wall BS

[RockCho]

Just wanted to be the 39080968th person to say,

"BRIAN WITH A GUN???? OMG WTF LOL CRAZY!!!!!!!!"
New character designs are eh compared to Steve & Marduk in 4 and Asuka & Feng in 5.

[ShinkuuR]

Big thanks to mukumuku from TZ for supplying the new info!

Special thanks to mukumuku, TEKKENBBS, and 2CH game fight posters for the following information!

TEKKEN 6 CHARACTER SPECIFIC INFO

ANNA WILLIAMS

* WS+2 is now punishbale.
* The hit box for her u/b+3 kick is now smaller.
* The mixup between her FC d/f+2 and WS+2 is now much weaker against sidestep.

NINA WILLIAMS

* New multi throw starter and branches.
* New move, low swipe with her arm. On CH it shifts into another move.
* WS+1,2 has been removed.
* New Move, WS+1,1+2. When WS+1 hits, the followup is guaranteed.

More updates soon!

Nina and Anna are two of my mains, so I'm very happy about these changes(especially Nina's low swipe, hopefully it adds more variety to her playstyle). As long as Anna's WS+2 isn't launch punishable then it's all good, cause u/f+3 needed to be nerfed.

[Darkside3024]

It's nice that Nina got some new moves but I hope she still doesn't get nerfed like she did in T5DR.

[mikee_scrubiz]

I can't wait for this, I pretty much ignored 5 but this has got me well interested in Tekken again.

[ShinkuuR]

A little bit more info from mukumuku...

EDIT: Instead of the taunt decreasing in advantage, it was Bryan's WS+3. Thanks to MarkMan at sdtekken.com for the correction.

I wish someone will show the article of Arcadia August issue later. Namco developer says in the interview that they removed 8frame jab to make unpunishable -8 and -9 situation. Players will be able to extend strategy for it.

:wow: > :wtf:

Expect alot of debate about this. I'll try to keep you guys updated.

Tekken Official site updated with some minor stuff

[Saotome Kaneda]

So everyone has a 10 frame "punisher" now? And I put that in quotes because what the fuck are you gonna do with 1,2 punches like 90% of the cast has(which means that Mishimas still get bias w/112) What does that mean for Wang/Chang/Bear (f)1,1,1? Especially for Bear, who in most cases can't punish shit the same as anyone and is a huge fucking target?

I wish they'd make certain complex motion throws(CIRCUS ROLL) have better range/faster startup(JACK DRIVERS). GS and Mad Axes don't deserve to be the only ones. The Kings aren't the only ones who need specialized throw anis, they're not the only "grappler" types in the game.

I saw this over at youtube and all I have to say is that I can't wait to play it. I know I'll be hitting King, Jin, and Kazuya up first.

[AlphaDragoon]

Fuck you for making Jin evil Namco, he looks awesome on the official Tekken site. :sad:

Game has some pretty good animations from what I could see.

he'll probably have a new staple in T6

Two more vids, not the best quality but you can make out the characters:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-Rn4gF64yeI
-Eddy vs. Kaz; Lee vs. Kaz; Lee vs. Devil Jin; briefly Julia vs. Devil Jin
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=6qBt2VNgsi4
-Nina vs. Lei; Xiaoyu vs. Lei

[Rojo]

youtube pretty much has all the new vids up, just look up Tekken 6, then date added

[Ryo Yamazaki]

The animation on this game is incredible. All Namco need to do now is give everyone different blocking/walking animations (ala vf5)

Jack's reanimated u/f+1+2 = WIN. That had to get rewound like, 5 or 6 times.

[Rioting Soul]

THREE NEW TEKKEN 6 VIDS!

@ http://www.sdtekken.com !

The game looks amazing!

In the third vid. The guys go crazy at about 1:37. I can only imagine it's because the King player missed the CH juggle. Was King an 8F/9Fer in 5.0-DR? The jab in the juggle whiffed and then the player sounded pissed.

Now that he's evil, I wonder if his moves are gonna change again.

[Saotome Kaneda]

According to the above posts they're still mostly the same.

[Ryo Yamazaki]

Armor King was an 8-framer.

In regards to the king vid, it looked to me like f+3 has slightly more recovery time on hit.

[Tension]

IIRC both Kings are 9Fers.

Only normal king is a 9 framer. Armor king is 8 framer.

[dbostick]

So, I wonder when they'll unveil the four new additional characters?

Umm, wow, I'm liking pretty much every single change made so far, except for the gimped Paul part, since I'm a Paul player.

*EDIT* Just got done reading the whole thing, some thoughts:

-Faster movement/side-steps sound very good.
-Same for strict juggle timing and lower combo damage in general.
-Less jab, jab, jab combos are a welcome addition in my opinion, even though it might gimp a few of my characters, that just means I'll have to switch up.
-From all the impressions, the game seems like it looks a lot better then people give it credit for, or screen shots are being able to let out.
-I don't care what people say, I think universal 10 frame jabs seem like it's going to be a welcome addition to the game indeed.
-So the two "?"s in the corners ARE randoms, which means we need to two more characters. One will probably a new mimic character(or maybe Mokujin again?), and someone brand new.

Over-all, I'm very impressed and so, so, soooo hyped for this.

[Rioting Soul]

"Finally most of those ancient legacy motions are gone"
"self-shadowing IS in the game"

Can someone elaborate on these?

Also, how was the SS system changed?

[Son Them All]

Yo after seeing Law in action, I'm a muh fuggin believer in what they were saying about him. New Law looks BEAST. I love the MUCH MORE Bruce like movements. I've got a new staple character it seems.

And once again it seems like Jack has been toned up and he'll be alot like where he was in DR. Kudos for making Jack playable over time Namco.

[Atb_555]

Just reading through all the stuff I missed. All I got to say is "wow" this game is sounding decent. Some of Bryans new moves look buff. Can't wait!!!

[Rioting Soul]

I pray that Namco does away with the mimic character.

Man, T6 is going to own if there isn't a rigid top tier(fingers crossed). Law looks TITE. Namco needs to stop, I can't play with so many characters seriously.

Bruce, Steve, Dragunov, Lili, and now fucking MIGUEL?! Sheesh.

EDIT: Hey Koreans... record a Dragunov match.

doesn't look like much has changed w/ nina. but DC looks hella fast now.

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

Ugh, I just really wish they'd remove the flaming hands and just let the health bars blink to let you know that Rage is on, looks silly to me. After watching a few more vids I can safely say that I might pick up Law when this comes out, he looks sick.

Came here to say that.

[dbostick]

Judging by the match vids I've seen so far, the new Rage system doesn't look like it will break the game. More or less, it looks like an automatic Netsu for someone getting their ass beat.

From what I've seen, it hasn't given anyone a clear cut advantage and I can tell it's somewhat of a comfort zone for the losing person and it's usage seems reliant on skill and smart tactics to make a comeback than something that can be abused.

As for the game playing like a hybrid of DR and TAG, my nut has busted at the thought of it. Nerfing all juggles and pretty much all combos in particular will make for a more balanced game (DR's air juggles needed some serious toning down).

[shadowcharlie]

i just hope the damage reductions are not quite as stupid as t4 was..

[Tension]

i just hope the damage reductions are not quite as stupid as t4 was..

From the vids, it seems similar to T3,T4, and TTT but that's not taking rage system into account. Low damage will certainly please the hardcore TTT players. I myself kind of like of the high damage in the T5 series. It doesn't seem too broken since you get 3/5 rounds.

[shadowcharlie]

ttt and t3 have imo much less damage reductions then 4 had

[Son Them All]

What it seems like it's boiling down to is the juggle system will make you have to be more creative. Jab jab jab jab is technically doable but now it's not nearly as practical anymore and in some cases no longer possible. Takes alot of the "cheese" out of juggles. I still saw Jack and Law doing some nasty shit although it just doesn't extend to retarded and unconsequential extra hits.

Just time to step ya'llz game up. Basically.

[Stanman]

The universal 10 frame jab might be better for balance but it just seems kind of stupid that a bear should be able to jab just as fast as a boxer.

The flaming hands does look kind of stupid, they should just make it like each character's supercharge or something at most.

Law's new animations are pretty sweet, but he is still orthodox which is bullshit. But I guess it would be weird playing a southpaw character.

The new changes make me scared, but I will welcome them. I just hope they won't do too much because a lot of DR actually works out.

[Saotome Kaneda]

The universal 10 frame jab might be better for balance but it just seems kind of stupid that a bear should be able to jab just as fast as a boxer.

I love logic. How would this same boxer be able to lift that bear off the ground with a simple uppercut? How would you be able to interrupt one of its swipes by punching faster?

What's funny is, that bear has been able to jab as fast as the boxer since T4.
