http://www.playsyde.com/leech_3560_1_en.html DL the trailer!

I love AOU:lovin:

[D'Nyc3]

Thx man!

Edit - Bryan uses a gun!!!? WTF!

Now we have a cable!

[Shankar]

cool

[Gaijinblaze]

A Middle-Eastern character? Looks a lot like my sister. :confused:

This whole time I thought T6 wasn't going to be in arcades. I'm glad they changed it even though it won't make much of a difference to most people here.

[Toshin]

I can't believe Byran and the frigging Gun at the end! LOL

[Stanman]

Bleh, not liking the two new characters that much. I guess that also debunks any rumors about tekken 6 really being TTT 2, but that might have been known earlier. Other than that it looks like they are going to rework the wall system again because those backgrounds definitely look like they can't be used like that. Unless of course those just happen to be the stages that don't use the walls..

I guess it otherwise looks good. Nothing really that different either.

[Soul-G]

rock howard in tekken? :looney:

[ckrazy]

i think the gun party is like after you win and maybe he throw the character up and in the air then blow them away with the shottie like how in t5 he just did a rushdown and beasted them.

[sliceypete]

shit look off the chain(you can still say that right?:confused: ) cant wait for it to come out

[Toshin]

Least the trailer shows we still got custom items this time around...Halo Jack-6 in the house? is that Mech Jack-6?:confused:

[4Play]

Nice find. Looks pretty good. At first I thought there were two new female characters but one turned out to be some Rock Howard look a like.

[Kang Do]

i think the gun party is like after you win and maybe he throw the character up and in the air then blow them away with the shottie like how in t5 he just did a rushdown and beasted them.

I doubt it. I don't believe they'd go through all the effort of texturing a gun onto his back if it was going to just be used for a winpose.

[jin11]

I puked looking at Leo, what a ***... 100% female in my eyes.

[Humbag]

not a huge fan of the new chars, as long as Paul has some wicked new moves.

[TGS]

Jack 6? Or P-Jack 2? 0_o

[Alucard20]

Nice find indeed! Now I just want to know will namco give us online play and tag team mode!

[1]

I uploaded it to youtube as well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlFZ_c5VhgI

[Cryptlord]

Leo is pretty cool in his background pose. I just HATE his girly ass voice.

Online mode!

[Gasp]

jack looks like a transformer wtf at that dyke cowboy bitch and the new gypsy voldo wanna be

[Alucard20]

Leo is pretty cool in his background pose. I just HATE his girly ass voice.

Online mode!

He looks too Girly tho.Looks like a very flat chested woman!:wasted:

[MarkMan]

www.sdtekken.com :)

[Saotome Kaneda]

I don't give a fuck about anyone else, Jack-6 looks absolutely beastly in heavy armor mode. :tup:

[Kix]

Looks like they could have tried a bit harder on Leo. His shoes, especially in game make him look pretty stupid. The girl looks boring beyond comprehension but obviously her style is what will make her, that is unique and cool. The stages at the moment don't really look cool.

[Ki Shima]

FAKE!


joking, but im not liking the new character amount, hope this comes out on 360 eventually, not really bothered to buy a ps3 yet

bryan with a gun? i think its just a winpose, which would be there only grip on next gen, having costume based winposes, but i hope stages have a much more noticable diffrence in fights.


who thinks leo is lee's son? lee is old now, with women living all around him, he's tekkens hugh hefner, he must have kids out the ear hole lol

[Terry_nb]

rock howard in tekken? :looney:

I thought the same as I saw that first screenshot. o_O

However, good to see the game get some nice Street Stages (I like them a hundred times more then Dojos or open fields etc.) and a new female is never wrong ...

I hope they keep improving Kazuya like from T4 to T5 and make Jin a Badguy like the whole bloodline.

It could also help to give Jin some Frameadvantage back on his 2,1, get back his 2,4, d+4 garanted and some other minor changes for him like a better push on a blocked ws+2 or a harder ewhf input (come on since TTT it got easier and easier to do ewgf type of Moves). Ah there is so much more I would like to have, but in the end we have to wait anyway. So I stop talking for now ...

[Mogri]

A Middle-Eastern character? Looks a lot like my sister. :confused:


Your sister you say? I'd hit it :D

[Hwoarvang]

I haven't bothered with Tekken for a long time after T5. T6 looks good as long as old casts with new uber moves are added.

hope this comes out on 360 eventually




Ha! That's what your mother said! To me my xmen, we shall bring the noise!

TEKKEN 6

THAT is what you wanted to say :lovin:

[_MJ_#R]

no tekken tag 2 then :/

[Hwoarvang]

THAT is what you wanted to say :lovin:

OMFG! You stalker!:rofl:

TEKKEN 6!!!!!!

[PsychoSquall]

That new guy might as well be called Rock Howard, jesus...

But anyways, I'm hyped.

[KING]

Nice find. Looks pretty good. At first I thought there were two new female characters but one turned out to be some Rock Howard look a like.

LEO seems to have a female voice, or a really effiminate one at that...

Looks like a chick with a short haircut...:confused:

*EDIT*

After looking at the trailer again, and seeing Leo do the "ST Cammy Winpose", I'm 85% sure Leo's a girl.

[Desk]

does no one else think this looks exactly like ninja gaiden? It just looks like they've stuck tekken characters into the xbox version of ninja gaiden.... I mean literally every stage is the same as a stage in ninja gaiden... even jack looks like one of the bad guys.

it's a little bit like ninja gaiden.

[elvis_a_presley]

joking, but im not liking the new character amount, hope this comes out on 360 eventually
Not going to happen. The entire Tekken franchise has been developed on all-Sony hardware, and ported to all-Sony home consoles. Namco and Sony are in bed together on this project, and Sony would rather go broke than see Microsoft get a sniff of it.

[Obliterate]

I like the Tekken series, I still haven't had a chance to play Tekken 5 yet at all, and it looks like I won't ever, but no big deal, I haven't played 80% of the SNK games and I still love SNK games (the ones I have).

That Leo guy (if it is a guy) is uh an interesting design I guess...he makes the cast from the Queer Eye look like the Brawny Man.

[Aion]

I puked looking at Leo, what a ***... 100% female in my eyes.
Co-signed :rofl:

[HeartNana]

Glad to see Asuka is still in it. Means it might actually be worth playing for me. :D

[Switch Blade]

Fuck yeah, finally Tekken in nex-gen graphics. Can't wait for it!

[<---SiNN--->]

the arcade going to be 2 crowded

[maxx]

ok ok sony we get it...enough is enough

WE FUCKIN KNOW SPIDER-MAN 3 IS COMING OUT THIS SUMMER....

jesus...i swear if i see one more game with the spider-man 3 font..imma go to japan and shoot someone.

lol tekken is going bishonen...

lol@bryan with a damn shotgun. lol so are we finally allowed to use weapons n shit from accessories.

[Master Chibi]

Bryan with a shotgun owns so damn hard :rofl:.

Also someone get the song they had playing!

[DevilJin 01]

LOL. I like how everyone's going WTF over Leo. It was only a matter of time before Tekken picked up a Leonardo Dicaprio type character. DOA has Elliott and VF has Lion so it was just time for them to catch on. You guys should just be going "yup...it was gonna happen". Any other reaction is useless. 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.

[KnuckIfYouBuckley]

I hope Feng comes back. Seeing as how I played him the most in Tekken 5.

Also, Bryan w/ shotgun juggles could be top-tier. Reminds me of Cervantes in Soul Calibur III...:rofl:

[DS]

Give me Bruce and Law or give me DEATH!!!!! BTW, the T5DR logo STILL looks better than T6.

I'll even bet $20 that there will be a T6.1 by Spring after it's initial release.

[maxx]

lol i thought it was lion..everyone went towards rock i was like lion? doesnt lion even have a similar outfit to that as well?

[DevilJin 01]

lol i thought it was lion..everyone went towards rock i was like lion? doesnt lion even have a similar outfit to that as well?

Yeah...the race jacket with the long boots. Yeah...that was his VF4 outfit in a nutshell. I also find it funny how their names are all similar. Elliot, Lion, Leo (all fancy Euro names with L's in them)...well I guess calling him Vern or Hugh wouldn't fit too well. Looks like from the screen shots that his style is probably also going to be some type of Kung Fu. Which just relates them even more so. Would be nice if it was something other than another Kung Fu style but I doubt it.

[Arsenal]

Based off the awkward camera angle, and the sheer absurdity of having a true pojectile attack (with a shotgun, no less), I highly doubt that Bryan actually will have a shotgun-blast move when Tekken 6 is released. Gaming companies are known for putting goodies into their trailers (Konami is notorious with this).

I might be wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised if that shotgun move doesn't appear in the ACTUAL game.

[plasmakill]

Will Namco ever stop biting peoples shit?

[DevilJin 01]

Will Namco ever stop biting peoples shit?

I say it's huge conspiracy between all 3 companies (Tecmo/Sega/Namco).

[Dark Geese]

I actually aint too hyped up for it after that trailer to be honest. I can actually wait now that I have my hands on T5DR, I just hope they sort out the storyline and please please kill the Devil Saga in some way or form. We truly need a fresh start non-Devil related in Tekken, the Devil Saga has been going on for sometime.

I can wait on this, nothing really stood out to me about t6..

[Spooty Whiteboy]

It looks to me that the shotgun is one of those items you can buy to put on your character. Since I don't believe Bryan has it earlier in the trailer. Maybe Jack can use those fuckin' missiles! That would be broken...

[Josh-TheFunkDOC]

Leo: "Macaulay Culkin IS Rock Howard!"

Yeah I ain't digging this too much. I'd bet the shotgun thing is just a new win pose.

[KnuckIfYouBuckley]

Give me Bruce and Law or give me DEATH!!!!! BTW, the T5DR logo STILL looks better than T6.

I'll even bet $20 that there will be a T6.1 by Spring after it's initial release.

More Like Super Tekken 6 Turbo Hyper Dark Ressurected Fighting....version B. :rofl:

[The Invincible Swordsman]

There MUST be more characters though. Tekken usually puts at least 4 characters in when they jump another number. It alluded to that in that SDTekken link. Looking forward to it.


This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

To me it looked like Bryan's shotgun move was like his WS+2,F/B+2 except with his left and (of course) with a shotgun. I don't know why something like that couldn't be in the game instead of just being able to shoot buckshots whenever you felt with a command.

[m121akuma]

Leo looks IDENTICAL to Yuki from NGBC, lol.

Bryan with a MUTHAFUCKIN SHOTTIE!

Looks hot, but then again, it is Tekken, I expect no less.

[DevilJin 01]

More Like Super Tekken 6 Turbo Hyper Dark Ressurected Fighting....version B. :rofl:

It works in Japan any ways.

[The Invincible Swordsman]

Now that I think about it, why couldn't Leo be a girl in a boy's disguise? That'd be something.


This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

There's gotta be a more manly character ready to be released tha we don't know about.

[Jida]

+1 for girly men. We should bump him down to dyke status. I did not see Kazuya. Why? I hope the story doesn't suck. I hope they come with more/better new characters. I hope nothing's too broken. I hope EWGF doesn't get fucked with. Meh, I'll play it anyway.

[Toshin]

I'm thinking Leo is a kazama relative from looking at it again...any takers on that or what style Zafina is using besides something really closed to something voldoish?:rolleyes:

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

*sigh* Man, all I got from that trailer was disapointment. Both new characters shown so far are boring, nothing like when I first saw Raven/Asuka/Feng, those characters actually impressed me. Also, the visuals didn't really look all that great, to be honest. Sure, it's a low quality video, but still. Of course, gameplay will be what makes this or breaks this, but why in the hell does Tekken just feel generic now? Here's hoping the next time they show it, that it's in better shape in every single regard. AND GIVE ME PAUL. Where was Jin/Kazuya?

[Snowman]

There MUST be more characters though. Tekken usually puts at least 4 characters in when they jump another number. It alluded to that in that SDTekken link. Looking forward to it.
There'll probably be some bullshit and Namco will say that Dragunov & Lili are the other 2 new characters (2 from DR, 2 for 6). Of course I'd hope for alot more new characters but as long as they don't all follow the Tidus syndrome.

Feng Wei was BEEFY as a new male character.

[Anemis]

I don't know where they could have gone after Dark Resurrection, I think this answers it. Better graphics, more refined, more customisations, more characters. Looking forward to playing this, but I'm not deadly excited or anything.

Reminds me of Ridge Racer 6 -> 7. Just incremental step ups because they don't know how else to improve it. Granted it looks like a pretty early build, so maybe they're holding something big out on us, though I doubt it.

Yeah, once a series (any genre) gets up to that many sequels/revisions, the improvement are usually standard and not surprising.

[TrueSephiroth]

Hey, if they fix up Tekken6's game engine so it takes more effort to pickup and learn then T5's and if they remove of fix the crush system, then I will become one happy camper for Tekken6.

It does just looks like an upgraded version of Tekken5:DR though, hahahaha...Zefina is a Sexxi Looking Voldo fraud, and Leo is Rock Howard towards the ghey side.

[Shinto]

Wesly Snipes aka Raven looks like he got the boot.

Tea Kan 666666

[Jida]

Feng Wei was BEEFY as a new male character.

Truth. I want my males characters to LOOK like they have a dick. Yes homo.

[Cryptlord]

True that. Looks the most like yuki followed by lion then rock.

Here's hoping the next time they show it, that it's in better shape in every single regard. AND GIVE ME PAUL. Where was Jin/Kazuya?

I think it comes down to the fact that they've just found a gameplay system that works and hardcore fans aren't really ready for a ton of change. They tried doing the uneven surfaces in T4 and look what that got us...a sequel that plays more like a revamped Tekken Tag without the tagging. To me the 2 new characters look interesting but yeah...not quite the wow factor that T5 had with the first new 3. Bringing an Aikido Jujutsu character back was hella cool for me cuz I loved Jun.

[Rioting Soul]

The Jack-5 armor seems to be meant to display the depth of the customization system in T6.

[maxx]

I'm thinking Leo is a kazama relative from looking at it again...any takers on that or what style Zafina is using besides something really closed to something voldoish?:rolleyes:

wtf when did kazama's come in blond? they always came across as the asian purebloods..like they would kill off anyone who wasnt having sex with an asian.

[kev_the_bev]

I'm not really impressed. They need to jump a few years in the future, like they did with Tekken 3 and Tekken 4.

[dbostick]

Awesome, this definitely looks way better than the trailer we saw at last year's E3. I sure hope they mean a 2007 release date for the PS3 and not only the arcade. My money is on a February 2008 release date for the PS3 version.

[DevilJin 01]

There'll probably be some bullshit and Namco will say that Dragunov & Lili are the other 2 new characters (2 from DR, 2 for 6). Of course I'd hope for alot more new characters but as long as they don't all follow the Tidus syndrome.

Feng Wei was BEEFY as a new male character.

Yeah...Feng Wei is unusually ripped for a Kung Fu character. His design was unique.

[KnuckIfYouBuckley]

Where was Jin/Kazuya?

There was a CG of Jin at the beginning of the video...

[CarpeNoctumXIII]

There was a CG of Jin at the beginning of the video...

I really meant on the gameplay/in-game side of things, I'd just expect them to show something new for Jin since he's the poster boy and all, not just some old CG we've seen already.

[DropKick Murphy]

leo looks like he plays like Julie(I think that was her name)

[Kayin]

Tekken needed a prettyboy, manliness gets boring.

[Obliterate]

They better bring Kaz back as he is the main badasses of all badasses. Gets thrown off a cliff, comes back for revenge against his own family, bangs Jun, has a bastard son, has come back from the dead like 5 times, and he's like 80 years old by now. I always thought Tekkens story/endings/characters were great up until T3, then things started getting a bit to flakey.

[DRE]

That new dude/girl reminds me of this:
http://studentweb.uwstout.edu/kapszukiewiczs/files/enchantgay.gif

[ToyRobotTerror]

Zafina looks like an interesting mix of eileen and voldo.

[DevilJin 01]

I always thought Tekkens story/endings/characters were great up until T3, then things started getting a bit to flakey.

I think part of the reason the series started get flaky is because Kaz is still there. Kazuya AFAIK came back because of fans (ala Ryu and Ken in SF3). They had to figure a way to bring him back in the story even though a volcano should have melted him into nothingness. Of course they revolved it around the Devil Gene so it seems somewhat legit. Then all of a sudden by Tekken 5 they decided just to bring everyone back even though Ogre had supposedly taken their souls or whatever. Only person who hasn't actually come back is Jun so according to the story I guess now she's the only one that's truly dead (as far as non boss characters go).

[Marty]

Wow, Namco have managed to produce the two most generic looking characters in the history of the world.

[Ouroborus]

i hope they bring feng and nina back.

and bryan with a shotgun is the coolest shit ever.

[Alucard20]

Tekken needed a prettyboy, manliness gets boring.

That's not a "pretty boy," that's a woman with no tits.:rofl:

[Shinto]

Wow, Namco have managed to produce the two most generic looking characters in the history of the world.

I guess there leaving the customization to the players.....but I think I see a generic Indian headress for Zafina.

[Kayin]

That's not a "pretty boy," that's a woman with no tits.:rofl:

Can't complain. :rofl:

[Gojira]

It's Tekken 5 with T4-size backgrounds. Maybe it'll work this time?

What can I say about Leo that hasn't been said already. If that's not some girl pretending to be a guy, he's got a long road to acceptance. LOL @ the Cammy lookit-my-butt pose

[Son Them All]

I love how cats are nitpicking about Leo, even though the cast of VF is all kinds of homosexual. Personally he reminds me of a design that would be the main character for a Suikoden game. Chick actually looks really interesting though...I got some bitches to learn I haven't even touched Lilli yet.

Suikoden V?

[Son Them All]

Suikoden V?

Well I was speaking in a more general sense (II and IV's main characters are also Leo esque) but now that you mention it, the Prince from V actually seem to fit the closest. And they're both equally androginous.

[Rik]

ummm..can someone please explain to me why the visuals look like shit. I mean Tekken has always been fun regardless but this isnt exactly a next-gen leap for the franchise as far as the graphics are concerned. DOAU for the original Xbox actually seems more impressive in that respect...and the rock howard rip doesnt really seem to fit in well with the roster of characters. I hope they release this on the ps2 and ps3 though since from the looks of things i doubt there will be much of a graphical difference anyways heh.

[Zigmover21]

ummm..can someone please explain to me why the visuals look like shit.

I think that's because keeping the basic format (1 on 1, simple stages) doesn't allow for any obvious improvements, especially since they abandoned the more complex 3d element from Tekken 4. If you look closely, you'll notice the character models look great, but nothing really jumps out and says "oh snap!" because the fundamentals look more or less the same (plus T5 looked pretty good to begin with). It's more like "oh, it's DR with better textures and character models".

[Mixup]

I agree, that particular video looks really shitty in comparison to the original trailer. I'll still play the game and i'm sure it will improve a bit, but for now it looks like dr on a stronger system.

[Rhio2k]

Leo's a chick...probably has a dead brother who got the invite, and assumed his place.

[Return of Shiki]

You people still expect ORIGINAL designs from Namco? Especially for TEKKEN?

[12:51]

Zalfina looks like she's going to be a really interesting character. Kinda like a hybrid of Ling and Lei. In the Directors vid, a couple of Zalfina's stances were shown, looks very Lei Fei like out of VF. I think she's got the potential to be very complex, so don't count her out just yet.

Leo's just gay.

JK..well...sorta. Seems like he plays like Lion in VF, if so, i'll probably be picking him up.

For those of you that don't know, the end of the trailer supposedly says there are MORE new characters to come.

The stages look very unique, a mix bag of DOA and TTT, maybe even some T4.

I think it's important to realize that this wasn't gameplay vid exactly, this could have just been replay shots, so the camera angles are gonna be weird. The final gameplay should still be a lot like Tekken 5 DR.

*shrugs* on Bryan's shotgun.

Graphics wise, it looks pretty solid i think, it's still really early too. Things change fast, so i wouldn't be worried about it. Expect Namco to have a very clean next gen game by the end of 07.

So far, i think the following characters have been seen (from all T6 trailers): Leo..na, Zalfina, Bryan, Armor King, Jack, Asuka, Dragonov, Jin, Devil Jin, Hwo, Lili, and maybe's on Lei, King, Law, and Christie. Expect pretty much everyone to be back imo though, since the director said this will be the largest cast yet.

[KneelB4Me]

Is there no high-def version of this vid?

[Rik]

Well its not that the visuals r horrible its just feels very"current gen" you know...expeically considering the cost of the ps3 and the game itself. I think it looks slightly better then VF4:Final Tuned to be honest and although its not horrible to look at the game itself could easily run on the ps2. I just think namco mind as well release it on the ps2 like how GOW2 is.

[Dark Geese]

Dammit if they dont kill the Devil story on this game then they need to finish it off by having all the Mishimas going Devil...and bring back Ogre and just have some Tekken Devil Finale with Ogre etc.

Devil Kazuya vs. Devil Jin and make Heihachi get the Devil gene so he can try to take over The Zaibatsu again or some shit.

Let's finish this Devil storyline off please!! It was great and shit like 5 years ago..:confused: It's played out now.

[Obliterate]

Who cares about graphics, gameplay, design, etc. I just want to know if I can give Kaz a jerry curl, and a diamond studded cane to complete the pimp suit. I sincerely hope these shotgun blasts and missles and whatnot are win poses or just for the intro.

[KORYNTHYAN]

I think maybe Bryan was the only smart fighter that got sick n' tired of Yoshimitsu having
a sword and said: "Fuck it. SHotty it is..." LoL And for those of you who think in that trailer
that it 'looks' like a win-pose...I'd like to know how. He was right in the middle of a combo.

It's not hard to imagine NAMCO giving certain characters weapon attacks. I mean sheesh,
Since Tekken ONE Yoshi has been sportin' that sword...and it's been unblockable the whole
time, what would be so bad about giving a different characters some abilities similar?

Also, about Jack. I frikkin LOVE his new look, and previously I was hearing that T6 was
supposedly going to have a darker/grittier look---I just hope it doesn't stop there with
just Jack. Bring it NAMCO!

~K.

Could be a canned followup, like a hit throw (i.e. Yoshi's CH ff+2 or Lee's b+3,3:4), or it might be an actual projectile. Wouldn't surprise me if they experimented with ranged attacks in T6, just to spice things up a little.

[maxx]

The Devil Saga will never die. Ever. It's that strong a plot device!:wasted:





that plot device hit its peak in part 5....it needs to end soon or have somekind of fucking amazing plot twist....like kazuya has another son floating around with the devil gene and can actually control it...brother vs brother type shit....they've been dragging this out for decades....literally..fuck that shit.

[AKUMA2000]

Wonder if Tekken 6 will be online playable...............

[Son Them All]

Ken Mishima dammit. He's part of the family, so he's like 1/8 Devil or some shit. Godhand vs. Jin FTW

I just think namco mind as well release it on the ps2 like how GOW2 is.

You're comparing an incomplete game with a complete game...

Wonder if Tekken 6 will be online playable...............

Hahaha.

[maxx]

Ken Mishima dammit. He's part of the family, so he's like 1/8 Devil or some shit. Godhand vs. Jin FTW

oh lord...and we've come full circle.

[Hwoarvang]

I like the trailer music. :)

[Rik]

Well the game looks more then 5o% complete to me and i doubt very seriously the final product will look any different aside from tweaks here and there. Regardless of how the gameplay might turn now, the game will be a major let down if the visuals do indeed turn out to look like this. This game has nothing on VF5 thats for sure.

[gridman]

Zafina = Female Dragunov

First thought that came to mind

That Jack looks amazing

[KrsJin]

The stages look very unique, a mix bag of DOA and TTT, maybe even some T4.


I agree. They arn't all glim and glam in this early stage trailer but I love em already.

I seriously need an explination on wtf is going on with Bryan's Shotgun... lol.

[Return of Shiki]

Zafina = Female Dragunov


How do you figure?

Dragunov is Marilyn-Manson Russian zombie who fights using Sambo.
Zafinai is a gypsy, probably based on some model or celebrity I don't recognize, who looks to use Snake-style Kung-fu.

[Son Them All]

I agree. They arn't all glim and glam in this early stage trailer but I love em already.

I seriously need an explination on wtf is going on with Bryan's Shotgun... lol.

Well shit, HAVING the shotgun is cool I guess, but the problem is, like it was with most items in 5, is that it sits precariously....as if suspended in midair. I know it's a fiction setting anyway, but that shit's just silly. How's a shotgun just going to sit on someone's back until called for? I mean, if it's gonna be there give him a holster or somethin so it makes sense.

[Momo254]

the new trailer will say " Kazuya Mishima... is dead "

XD!!

[aa_overmind]

I can't wait!!

But I think the game's graphics look like shit!!!

I guess VF wins in graphics again!

That's definitely an issue, but I'm more concerned about him comboing with it in the end lol.

[aa_overmind]

Zafina reminds me of that girl from Martial Masters!!

[Saotome Kaneda]

Some of you probably haven't played PS3 T5DR in HD, looks WAY better than 5 did in Progressive Scan, and definitely better than the standard on arcade monitor. There's still room for improvement, and remember, it's only fucking Feburary, they have all year to make the game shiny and pretty. So shut your mouths. For an incomplete project it looks great.

[margalis]

Anyone notice in a couple of places the weird circular distortion effect? Is this something that was in DR or is it new? (Last Tekken I played was plain old 5) Looks like a sort of shockwave spreading out in the air, no color only bending.

[Mixup]

it's a completely new effect.

[Shadowcuz]

They need to fix up Leo's face in-game, looks nothing like the artwork:rofl:

[maxx]

the new trailer will say " Kazuya Mishima... is dead...again..and so is heihachi..no really..we're serious this time "

XD!!

correction

[Jida]

leo looks like he plays like Julie(I think that was her name)

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Tekken needed a prettyboy, manliness gets boring.

I'll be goddamned if Lee Chaolan didn't already handle that.

Wow, Namco have managed to produce the two most generic looking characters in the history of the world.

:rofl: :rofl: Aw man if I hadn't just gotten this sig I'd change it to what you just said.

I love how cats are nitpicking about Leo, even though the cast of VF is all kinds of homosexual.

The whole cast? How?

Leo's a chick...probably has a dead brother who got the invite, and assumed his place.

Clever. Hadn't thought of it that way.

what would be so bad about giving a different characters some abilities similar?

Nothing. If you like brokenness.

New hit spark/swing animation effect?

Gotta be.

[ShinAkumax]

Shit better be balanced. Tekken 1 was primordial, Tekken 2 was bunk. Tekken 3 was amazing, Tekken Tag was better. Tekken 4 was played by no one. Tekken 5 was terrible, just terrible. Not a great track record for the series so I'm not expecting much.

[ShinAkumax]

I believe it to be terrible at an upper middle class stage of the game. Nothing is as infuriating as taking down an opponent carefully then they get blam 100% combo. That's happened to me! It's happened to everyone! I don't understand why Namco decide to make everyone a juggle character. I absolutly despise that game.

I like juggle games but they need to be a little toned down. Maybe only 1/3 life instead of 50-70% for most. I hate XI's short jump spamming a lot more.

[Jida]

And who the fuck is that from like 2:05-2:06? New character, or is that just a customization that I can't recognize?

[ShinAkumax]

It's a fun game but it's too infuriating. I rather play Tekken Tag.

[KrsJin]

Kinda looks like Law to me.

[Son Them All]

The more I think about it the more I'm convinced Leo's a Chaolan. You already KNOW Lee been fuckin everything that moves for the past 20 years ANYWAY. Hmm Lee+Anna=this lovely bumble of metro-ism? Maybe.

[Jion_Wansu]

So what's up with White Jax? I mean Bryan Fury :smile:

I bet you Tekken 6 is going to copy Mortal Kombat Armageddon somewhat by getting knocked through different stages, etc.

Watch out for air combat and parry

So why can't we have Mortal Kombat Armageddon at EVO2K7?

Theres a 100% combo in T5?

[1/2Man1/2God]

yea so T6 should be hot shit.I can't wait for it to come out.I've been a fa of Tekken since the first.Even if this one sucks which im hoping and guessing in wont.I'm still getting it lol.

T3 and Tag had terrible balance in the long run.

Theres a 100% combo in T5?

d+1+2, 2, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, wall hit, ground throw, SSR, df+3,1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, wall hit, ground throw, df+3,1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, ff+1+2

[Veib]

Steve has an infinite.

[Zigmover21]

Steve has an infinite.

Actually, quite a few characters have infinites, but only Steve and Raven's are anywhere near practical. Unfortunately, Steve doesn't actually need the infinite to kill you off of [3],1,1.

[Azagtoth]

Wouldn't a dragon punch stop that shit? That' why I like KoF98 the most. Ryo has a REALLY good dragon punch to deal with all that shit. 95Ryo is the TRUTH in that game.

Ryo's DP is still good (really good), but good hyperhop attacks (IE Gato) are too fucking fast to DP on reaction if you're at a disadvantage. XI is much faster than 98. Regardless, hyperhopping is not invincible anyway; it just happens to be nasty in mixups because good hyperhops are basically instant overheads.

Anyway, as for Leo, it's not like Rock was the first ever dude with blonde emo hair, but that outfit really is straight up Yuki. :looney:

I sense trouble for this game if there are uneven stages.

[TGS]

Shit better be balanced. Tekken 1 was primordial, Tekken 2 was bunk. Tekken 3 was amazing, Tekken Tag was better. Tekken 4 was played by no one. Tekken 5 was terrible, just terrible. Not a great track record for the series so I'm not expecting much.

You forgot T5:DR, which is waaaaaaaaaay better than that rushjob known as Tekken 5.0.

I believe it to be terrible at an upper middle class stage of the game. Nothing is as infuriating as taking down an opponent carefully then they get blam 100% combo. That's happened to me! It's happened to everyone! I don't understand why Namco decide to make everyone a juggle character. I absolutly despise that game.

If everyone didn't have juggles, we'd be playing Fight Night right now. Besides, it's your fault you got launched into a 100% combo because you were either predictable or took some unnecessary risks and got kicked in the face for it... And 5.0 is a broken piece of shit anyway; play DR.


d+1+2, 2, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, wall hit, ground throw, SSR, df+3,1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, 1,2, wall hit, ground throw, df+3,1,2, VTSc, 1,2, VTSc, ff+1+2

Well the same can be said for Raven being Namco's answer to Darrius.

I always saw more a Ryu Hayabusa connection. I mean it's like they bought their gear from the same guy.

Hmm I suppose. That's an odd decision to make tho. The primary reason for female character design (especially according to Itagaki) is to introduce fantasy archtypes that can be feverishly fapped to when not actually playing the game....or during. Whatever the case Leo most definitely defeats that purpose.

The only way I could get a hard-on with Leo is if she forced herself on Anna Craig style.

Aw man, taking this debate across this threads now? Dudley is definitely black.

[Obliterate]

I wonder if item customization affects gameplay? Like if Jack is all decked out his strength gets a dramatic increase but his speed takes a hamper, and if certain items allow for new moves and combos... Might get a bit confusing that way though cause I'm sure some items and customizations would lead to all hell sorts of brokeness.

[Ki Shima]

dragunov is michael jackson from another dimension, after winning the election for presidency in the year 2020, i thought EVERYBODY knew that :confused:

[Gojira]

I think the Bryan shotgun thing is his normal appearance. He has the shotgun in pretty much every part he shows up in. I think it's probably just a quick juggle shot like Devil Jin's u+1+2.

My theory on the graphics is that they just didn't want to waste time redesigning every single character. At 1:56 it says it will have the greatest number of characters in series history. I don't think they could do that if they tried to redraw 34+ characters AND add customizations. Technically they'd qualify that statement if they just kept everyone from DR and added Leo and Zafina, but nonetheless I think there will be more new characters. Maybe even possibly some of the ones that people have been asking for.

[ShinAkumax]

Aw man, taking this debate across this threads now? Dudley is definitely black.

Anyways, to not thread jack.... Leo's a chick now?! I also don't think they'll get rid of any characters since most of the time they just bring them back. They should know by now we don't care about the story. Hell, they should bring the ogres back.

[Gojira]

Not much. I'm not fluent, all the background noise makes it hard to hear and the low quality on the video makes it hard to read. From what I can make out:

-Tekken's been around for about 10 years. (I guess this means T6 is a sort of anniversiary thing?)
-Stages are bigger to make better use of 16:9 widescreen.
-The character roster will be the largest in the series history. There will be more new than just the 2 new characters shown.
-Customizations are more detailed, with some interesting tricks. (pictured: Bryan's shotgun move)
-Zafina is a mysterious character with odd movements that uses scorpion style.
-Leo's German, uses baji-quan, and is easy to learn.

That's the gist of it. And I didn't hear a single word referring to females during Leo's part.

I believe Virtua Fighter 4 came before Tekken 4.
On top of that Vanessa didn't get VT until Evo, by then T4 was already out. She had Kickboxing before that.

[Rioting Soul]

Tekken vs VF? Is anybody else hearing about this? Goh in a Tekken-style? I need some tissue.

And I'm not talking about V.R. Fighter vs Taken...

[maxx]

Not much. I'm not fluent, all the background noise makes it hard to hear and the low quality on the video makes it hard to read. From what I can make out:

-Tekken's been around for about 10 years. (I guess this means T6 is a sort of anniversiary thing?)
-Stages are bigger to make better use of 16:9 widescreen.
-The character roster will be the largest in the series history. There will be more new than just the 2 new characters shown.
-Customizations are more detailed, with some interesting tricks. (pictured: Bryan's shotgun move)
-Zafina is a mysterious character with odd movements that uses scorpion style.
-Leo's German, uses baji-quan, and is easy to learn.

That's the gist of it. And I didn't hear a single word referring to females during Leo's part.
googled baji-quan cuz i thought it might be like ba qua....

Popular culture

Image:Kokoroheadshot.jpg Bajiquan was in some ways made famous by the Sega video game Virtua Fighter, as the style that the main character Akira Yuki practices, though none of the many representations of Bajiquan in popular media has ever been very accurate. Other video game characters that use this style are Kokoro from the Dead or Alive series and Xiuying Hong from the Shenmue video game series. Despite poular belief, Ling Xiaoyu does not practice Bajiquan, rather she practices Piguaquan (Hikaken in Japanese) and Baguazhang (Hakkesho in Japanese), similar to Wang Jinrei. Julia Chang, however, uses Bajiquan techniques as part of her style. Also, Ba Ji Quan is one of the five fighting styles a player may choose in the online fighting game Kwonho.

Yeah I mentioned it in another thread (http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?p=3672722#post3672722) Hmm, I would hope a brand new series tho, rather than a Vs. type thing. Those two teams sitting down and coming up with new fighting game ideas makes my pants just a little bit tighter.

[Superking]

This resemblance is brain dead obvious although this resemblance isn't from Tekken, don't forget Akira. Hi Ryu! :rolleyes:

Haha true, but you can say that Ryu is a ripoff of 1P in Karate Champ. :looney:

Anyway just their appearance is similar, since Akira does Kung Fu and Ryu does a made up form of Karate which gets mistranslated as a real form of Karate in Shotokan. lol

[Jeneric]

On top of that Vanessa didn't get VT until Evo, by then T4 was already out. She had Kickboxing before that.She's been Vale Tudo all along since she first entered the series. In VF4 her Offensive Stance was a "Muay Thai" stance, that's probably where you are confused.

akira is a ripp off of fighting street ryu, look at his kung fu slippers in that game

i believe ryu is a merge of choi baedal and bruce lee, Ryu being more like choi and ken being more like bruce, explaining why ken has more stylish tae kwan do moves, and ryu being more traditional karateka, plus ken is quater cast like bruce lee

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul7Z9u5zgeI

ryu was always such a solid and traditional character why would his new move be this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYxhSiC2LV0

Remove/Fix Crush System for Tekken6 ='s Me Happy :lovin:

Would've been pretty cool if they would've added a create a character, since I like Tekken's character styles for a custom character then what SC3 has.

[Gimpy]

Kaz and Jin better be extra tight in this game. And if this is the "last" Tekken game they need to do something spectacular with the storyline between them and it would be cool if the final boss was a mixture of Kazuya, Jin, and Hipachi's devils.:looney:

nah they need to finish it off with like the resurrection of jins mom or jin just becoming full out evil. fuck pussy footing around. time to make him so fucked up jin and heihachi have to do a team-up and own him.

[Wellman]

If this is the 'last' storyline game, they just need to kill Heihachi and Kazuya for good, have Jin fuck some bitch (hopefully not his cousin) and fly off into the son set.

That or Eddy G come back, kick everyone's ass and call the entire tournament done.

But as long as Tekken makes money, there will be more Tekken games.

[Edi. E]

Leo looks like an Asian version of Ellen DeGeneres

[Akhira]

the hell, is jack a transformer now?

[Wellman]

Leo obviously is a commentary on how much of a bitch Lion from VF is and will probably always be. With some King from AOF homage thrown in there as well.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3158222

I think that was pretty obvious with the promo video having PS3s rigged up as well as them using Sixaxises and modded PS2 sticks.

Also Namco's history of using Playstation-based hardware in their System ____ line of arcade boards (11, 12, 246, 258, Super 258, etc.).

[4neqs]

Apologies if it's been posted, but the Search function was acting funny. Some new info from this week:

http://sdtekken.com/tekken-6/

[Jida]

All characters have an “item move”, like the Bryan shotgun we saw at the AOU trailer. Although not all of them will have the same effectiveness.
An example of an “item move” will be Anna throwing her high heels at her opponents.

Ahahahahaha. Broken shit to come.

So far Yoshimitsu has gone under the most drastic change. Harada notes that it will be much more difficult to use Yoshimitsu this time around and they consider him an “Expert” character. Part of his story includes the fact that his sword is now losing power and he must take a new fighting style, Kenjutsu from the Manji clan, this includes both dual sword fighting and pure fist fighting!

Apparently using him before wasn't hard enough.

[Ki Shima]

"many drastic changes were made to Marshall Law, fans of Bruce Lee and those that know of Jeet Kune Do will be very pleased."

:confused:

ok Law is beyond broken now, quick troll then close thread.


its gonna happen eventually :rofl:

New Tekken 6 News Update!

New update on game storyline and character profiles!

Check it out now!

[Marty]

So all of a sudden Jin goes from "I hate the Mishima Zaibatsu, they're evil" to "Now that I'm the Mishima Zaibatsu, it's time to CONQUER THE WORLD"?

Sounds slightly like bullshit.

[axeman61]

If the "changes" we heard about the last article are true, I wouldn't doubt this so easily.
Power corrupts, I guess. Maybe the Devil Gene got him or something.

[Ephidel]

If anything, that's what I'd figure it to be...

[Son Them All]

Item moves = lame stupid shit. I hope there's a way to turn that shit off.

Everybody getting new animations = that niceness

Law FINALLY being built to more accurately represent Bruce Lee = God Tier

[kev_the_bev]

with all these changes to Marshall.....maybe Forest can come back with an even further differentiated move set?

[jae hoon]

T6 sounds pretty lame so far, might turn out to be good though.

[axeman61]

Yeah. I really hope they change their minds about these "super items" though. Their docket is full enough with all these new animations, even if the same fighting styles will apply to the same people. If the damage these items will take varies like I'm hearing, that's a whole new basket of issues.

Hmm Jin is suffiently muscular again (no homo). In Tekken5 is looked like he he had lost like 20lbs. The graphics are turning out better than what they originally showed which didn't seem to be "next gen" enough compared to what VF5 did. As long as you don't HAVE to have retarded ass item moves, Tekken 6 will be my new baby.

[Rodimus]

bout time, I still think they robbed us on tekken dr not being on ps2.

Oh well i can't wait because i havent played a fighting game in a minute. Only so much tekken 5 i can play now.

[Ki Shima]

so since kazuya, jin and jinpachi rely on devil gene i guess that means lee and heihachi are stronger.

i like kazuya but since tekken tag he's been devil kazuya to me, i like to think kazuya in tekken 2 was just before he got totally taken over wen he got ressurected, he fights more like devil now.

he's still good but shit man he seems stiffer.

i hope lee is still in this.

[Superking]

i hope lee is still in this.

The entire cast of DR will be returning for Tekken 6.

[KnightWarrior]

Why doesn't this go Multi-Platform..Bring this to the 360....

From SDTEKKEN.COM

Leaked images from the July issue of Arcadia Magazine have surfaced… and the character that was widely referred to as “Manly Man” is now officially known as “Miguel” ! Miguel is a bullfighter who has a unique style of fighting. It is noted that he hasn’t studied any martial arts. More news as it comes in, stay tuned!

[Rioting Soul]

I don't think they rely on it like that I think because of the hate0 they have for Heihachi the devil gene is always going to be strong in them. They must learn to let the hate go. :rofl: I, myself, don't like the fact that it seems JIn is now "mini heihachi/kazuya". :bluu:

[Helter Skelter]

I'm sure all the Dark Resurrection characters are going to be in it.

I'm probably gonna use Zafina as my main, if she plays like I think she will.

[Ansatsuken-TKD]

So all of a sudden Jin goes from "I hate the Mishima Zaibatsu, they're evil" to "Now that I'm the Mishima Zaibatsu, it's time to CONQUER THE WORLD"?

Sounds slightly like bullshit.

Yeah, you've got a point there. I honestly don't think Jin would just have that quick of a change of heart... I mean for crying out loud his very name means virtue! I think he's just out to get rid of daddy Kaz and old man diapers.

[Helter Skelter]

Miguel looks OK-ish.
They need to make another trailer.

[Toshin]

I'm calling “Miguel” = Raph from SC for tekken 6 :sweat:
Hella Counterattack/Dodge Style

[Squarex]

wtf is miguel? hah

[4Play]

So so far there's 3 new characters Miguel, Leo(female from what I understood) and Zafina. Sounds good now if they brought back Forest with different moveset it would be set. Maybe even Kunimitsu.

[Rioting Soul]

Well, thanks to Miguel, there's now a new character interesting enough for me to have as a main character.

Hella Counterattack/Dodge Style
That does make sense. And that's even better for me since Raph is my SC character(if I'm actually playing the game).

[XTG]

im curious about the nationality...im figuring him to be Español...

[AlphaDragoon02]

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


Fuck this game.
