Tekken 6 now Tekken 360

[Kermi]

Good news, now the game can be enjoyed by more people.
But it is indeed bound to piss PS3 fanboys off, like the FFXIII announcement.

FFXIII is coming to 360 too?

Money talks, national pride walks indeed.

FFXIII is coming to 360, apparently FF VERSUS XIII isn't, though I don't know exactly why. Or even what we'd be missing out on if we got one and not the other.

I have both a 360 and PS3 and probably won't buy either: my interest in FF kind of died off after X.


As for Tekken, I've never really liked that series. It's cool that 360 owners can play it now, but eh, it wasn't going to bother me that it was originally a PS3 only title.

I do think its a slightly dumb idea, as the 360 is essentially shit for Fighting games (among others genres).

What other genres?

Indigo> Tekken, high-precision ? I'm laughing so hard right now...

Well, to be fair, Tekken is known for two things:
1) retarded just frames
2) retardedly long comboes

Tekken 6 especially has these obscenely long comboes called "death comboes" that basically let you lift the opponent into the air and juggle them to death. The opponent is unable to do anything during those. I'm not sure what they've done to BR since I haven't kept tabs on the Tekken community, but I'm pretty sure they haven't changed the game much. Tekken is basically long juggles.

I should know about those impossible combos, I've been playing Tekken 1-Tag and 5 and DR...
King is a neat character but his grapple chains are impossible to learn and input, and Bruce has followup attacks that have impossible timings as well...
The 10-hit combos were already almost impossible to use...

I don't hate that game, but it's between lame button mashing (wiht shitty frames canceling a jumping kick with a weak poke on the big toe and putting you back on the ground like it's a Mortal Kombat teleport move) and work (just like perfectly mastering Virtua Fighter 5 -I like the game, but half of the moves are sadly almost useless)...

Oh the guy is missing out on a shitload of exclusives. Internutt just listed the ones he cared about. Like how my only interest in a 360 is for Fable 2.

And how my only intrest in a PS3 is...um....

Does it really matter, both consoles have the game - has anyone seen that idiot who demanded people boycot Square after the FF13 announcment?

^ PS3 fanboy going mad at Square after FF13 goes to 360.

I do think its a slightly dumb idea, as the 360 is essentially shit for Fighting games (among others genres). And Tekken is one of the most high-precision fighters to do well in, it would seem that the whole thing is setting up for a vastly inferior port, triply so when you realise the game was designed on the Ps3 for the arcade version.

Well, I use the analog stick for fighting anyway, not the D-Pad. And the PS3's D-Pad vs Xbox360's, what I have to say about the 360's analog stick is, not bad.
