-This game has solid mechanics, though you may find yourself in more of a paper rock scissor match from time to time. This is mainly for the fact that you will learn when you use a low, mid, or high attack. -The concept is simple, and game is quick to learn, one joystick for controls, and 4 buttons. It will surprise you how complex moves can become with experience from such straight forward controls. -Lots of characters, lots of great characters and models to go with it. Good backgrounds, nice visuals, good animations, except sometimes you may be able to land an upper cut to someone who is on the ground and cause them to do a backflip since you hit them so hard.. other then that solid animations. -High replay value, which is a good thing since arcade mode is short as ever :). -Looking for a game to piss you off? This game can do it when you battle online, this is the downside to online play, as a recreational gamer, you are alone in that attitude. There are very few people who still play this game online, and they are not so nice, and most are pro. So be ready for someone to keep you on the ground, and stomp your skull over and over never letting you get up, and then tell you how bad you suck. If you can handle that, you may enjoy it online.... I just like the local multiplayer.. Ultra Hard CPU players, and local friends is the way to be. Worst community ever... except UFC 2009, and Fight Night Round 3. So I take that back, third worst community ever. Its a great game. For the price it can be had now in 2011, if you haven't tried it, and your a fan of the genre, nothing should hold you back, unless you want a lively online community to play the game in. That is harder to find.

Pros: If you have played a Tekken game in the past, you know what to expect. This is the first installment on the next gen consoles, so expect the obligatory graphics upgrade, new characters and more refined balancing. Cons: The load times. If you got the HD space, I recommend doing a full install. Also, despite being a next gen system, the graphics aren't as big of a jump from Tekken 5 that I would expect. Personally, I wasn't a fan of the campaign mode. Final Thoughts: If you are a fan of the Tekken series, this deserves to be in your collection. New comers will enjoy this game as well. Surprisingly, button mashers can sometimes hold their own against vets. Easy to pick up with a lot of depth underneath.
Tekken 6 is a great virtual fighter, just like its predeccessors, but it doesn't have that same charm to it. The graphics are great and the characters are still fresh and hilarious, but it just doesn't feel quite like a Tekken game. That's mainly because of its lack of constant fun, and the fact that it is disappointing. For instance, the scenario campaign is a fun little diversion, but it has an unpredictable difficulty and just-plain-odd storyline, unlike previous Tekken games. The multiplayer still rocks though, and so does the arcade mode. Online is patchy, but nonetheless fun. Overall, I think Tekken 6 is a very good installment to the series and does good to the genre, but I can't help wishing it didn't change so quickly.
they sent us tekken 5. i'm not complaining because i love both games, but it was the wrong product so i can't give it a 5 star rating. great game and well worth the money even if it was wrong. arrived on time with no damage.

If you are a fan of the Tekken series, you will not be disappointed. This new release feels true to the Tekken line up and has 40 characters to fight with. The options for customization of your characters is a nice addition. There are a lot of options for offline and online game play, and gives this game high re-playability. The only complaint I can give is that the graphics are not up to par with what I expect out of newly released games. I play Tekken on a HD 1080p LCD television, and the graphic quality is not comparable to other games I am playing.
