- Honestly, we kinda expected Tekken 6 to look better. The stages are well designed and the character models chunky, but the game just lacks a level of fidelity that would bring it into the next-generation, rather than looking like a beefy Playstation 2-era game. Even after a hefty install, Tekken 6 takes a fairly long time to load. If you don't install, you may aswell not even bother. That's how long it takes.
Sammy Barker · Nov 05, 2009 Reviewed on PS3Read full review - Tekken 6 is the most complete Tekken experience so far. It features a large roster, strong customization options, and tight mechanics, and it's sure to be a time sink as you enjoy battle after battle and strive to perfect your skills. If you're a newcomer, the game is as welcoming as ever, and there's plenty here to keep you occupied until you're ready to start busting out your own combos. If you're a fighting fan or are just curious to dip a tentative fist into the genre, then Tekken 6 is the game for you.
Randolph Ramsay · Oct 28, 2009 Reviewed on PS3, X360Read full review - As a fighting game, Tekken 6 proves why it’s been a consistent success for over a decade. Controls and combos are incredibly tight, and the entire package is dripping with polish. Despite the lackluster Scenario Campaign, it’s still a solid purchase for fighting fans.
Dan Ryckert · Oct 27, 2009 Reviewed on PS3, X360 - Newcomers will still find the game accessible (more so than almost every other fighting game on the market, including SF4), and might even enjoy spectacular success, especially with characters with special moves receptive to button bashing. And veterans will still find the nuanced fighting system rewarding to master and, essentially, pixel perfect. But in a year destined to be remembered as the one that saw the resurgence of the fighting game, Tekken 6's star is too dull to shine brightest.
Wesley Yin-Poole · Oct 27, 2009 Reviewed on PS3, X360Read full review - Tekken 6 has plenty of merits to go on without riding its predecessors' coattails. With a solid battle system that incorporates plenty of defensive techniques and emphasizes combo mastery, this fighter will keep you engaged for quite some time. Add a brawl-style story mode and plenty of online possibilities, and you've got yourself a fighter that deserves to be played.
Amanda L. Kondolojy · Oct 27, 2009 Reviewed on X360Read full review - Although beginners can get by in Tekken 6 by mashing buttons, the real fun comes from learning the game's intricate sub-systems and developing a sense of the mind games that play out about between two skilled opponents. Tekken 6 has a lot to offer, including a massive roster, refined gameplay, plenty of modes, online multiplayer and an absurd amount of character customization options.
Ryan Clements · Oct 23, 2009 Reviewed on X360Read full review - Tekken 6 is far from perfect but it's still a solid fighter and superior to the likes of KOFXII for head-to-head couch play. The new modes and features do little to change the classic formula, but the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament is nonetheless deep, balanced and rewarding to those who invest the time. It's also very accessible to those who just want to dabble with an intuitive fighter and not spend hours in the practice mode.
Matt Edwards · Nov 02, 2009 Reviewed on PS3, X360Read full review - Tekken 6 is a worthy successor to Dark Resurrection and ultimately one of the best entries in this venerable franchise to date. Still, the online experience could have been better, the Scenario Campaign feels decidedly lacking and the load times leave a lot to be desired. When all’s said and done, though, so long as you aren’t expecting any radical changes, this bout of Tekken is just as brutally compelling as it's always been.
Michael Harradence · Nov 03, 2009 Reviewed on PS3Read full review - Tekken 6 debería haber estado muy por encima de lo visto técnicamente, teniendo en cuenta sobre todo que vamos por el cuarto año de la nueva generación y que está al nivel de juegos aparecidos hace una buena temporada. Parece una revisión poco atrevida de un esquema de juego muy manido, que creemos que puede y debe llevarse algunos pasos hacia adelante sin que ello tenga por qué afectar a la esencia de una de las mejores sagas de lucha de todos los tiempos.
José María Arias-Camisón · Oct 29, 2009 Reviewed on X360Read full review - El género de la lucha ya tiene un nuevo rey en la nueva generación de consolas, y su nombre es Tekken 6. Sus 40 personajes, interesantes modos de juego, capacidades online y elementos de personalización lo convierten en un título largo, rejugable y repleto de diversión. Tanto si eres un seguidor de la franquicia como un nuevo jugador con espíritu combativo, este videojuego debe formar parte de tu colección.
