Have you been hoping, nay, dreaming of snagging one of the Tekken 6 arcade stick bundles but have been hesitant to plunk down the $150 asking price? This post is for you then, as Amazon has positively slashed the price of the bundle on both PS3 and 360 version, knocking them down to a paltry $78. Seventy-eight bones! That’s only $18 bucks more than your average game and it includes the Tekken 6 Hori arcade stick to boot.
If you, or the digital pugilist in your life, haven’t picked this up yet, it probably won’t get much cheaper than this.

Producer Katsuhiro Harada commented to UK.PlayStation.com that more Tekken 6 content is likely to be on the way via DLC, adding to the retailer-exclusive Cardboard Tube Samurai outfit. But we can’t groan about Namco Bandai using DLC for the popular fighter as a cash machine, because the company doesn’t intend to charge for it. Harada said there was a “strong possibility” of additional downloadable content for the game — possibly for the PSP version as well, since he didn’t specify. “However, even if we were to do so, it would be free to the end user.”
Of course, this is the same company that released paid Star Wars DLC for Soul Calibur IV after the director said there wouldn’t be. So don’t go empty out your Tekken 6 DLC fund just yet.

Here it is, folks: your chance to beat up relatives all throughout the holiday season, albeit from the relative safeness of Tekken 6’s confines! For this week’s Swag Saturday, we’re giving out a copy of Tekken 6 for the Xbox 360 to one lucky commenter who tells us which fictitious holiday character (think: Santa, the Easter Bunny) they’d like to beat up the most, and with which Tekken 6 character they’d like to do so with. Fancy a battle of Kuma vs The Tooth Fairy? Perhaps Jack-6 vs George Washington (wait, he was real?!)? We want to hear about it!
- Leave a comment telling us which fictitious holiday character (Santa, the Easter Bunny, etc.) you’d like to beat up most, and with which Tekken 6 character they’d like to do so with.
- You must be 18 years or older and a resident of the US or Canada (excluding Quebec, mostly due to the gravitational quotient of poutine)
- Limit 1 entry per person per day
- This entry period ends at 6:01PM ET on Sunday, November 22
- At that time, we’ll randomly select one winner to receive one copy of Tekken 6 for Xbox 360 ($60 ARV).

Those of you taking your King of the Iron Fist Tournament fighters to the internet have been experiencing some major issues, notably: when trying to compete online in any sort of meaningful way, you’re met with acute, game-ending connectivity issues. Namco recognized that today and issued a response, stating, “To improve the online game experience for players … Namco Bandai games is developing a downloadable update which will be available as soon as it has passed rigorous testing procedures.”
Unfortunately, no date for the patch has been given, though the publisher does add, “This is separate from the online co-op Scenario Campaign mode update.” We’ve pestered Namco for more details on exactly what the patch will aim to fix and when we might hear more about it but, until that time, know this: something is being fixed at some point.
Tekken 6 online patch in the works, says Namco originally appeared on Joystiq on Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:20:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Another football game came out in the UK last week and, once again, it came in first place in the region’s weekly software sales charts. This time around, the game was Football Manager 2010, in which soccer isn’t played, but rather, managed. That’s far too boring a concept to discuss further, so instead, let’s move to the other big debuts: Wii Fit Plus, for instance, came in second place for the week, which is — wait a minute. Doesn’t Wii Fit Plus have a “Soccer Heading” minigame? Oh, Nintendo. You know exactly what you’re doing.
Episodes From Liberty City and Tekken 6 also made a splash during their launch week, garnering sixth and eighth place finishes, respectively. However, DJ Hero seems to be following its expected, slow-starting sales trajectory, debuting at twentieth place in last week’s chart. We’ve got a small suggestion for FreeStyle Games to improve the rhythm title’s performance in the UK: Needs moar Dizzee Rascal.

If you’re a fighting game enthusiast living in Southern California — or a really big fighting game enthusiast living in Northern California — you might want to check out the Tekken 6 launch party that’s being hosted by a number of local fighting game community sites in Hawthorne, CA. Attendees who shell out for the $10 entry fee will have the chance to play the brawler on comically large screens, win some swag (such as the drool-inducing wireless fightstick bundle) and schmooze with some Namco Bandai developers.
You can be sure that we’ll be in attendance — we’re going with the hopes of being able to shake the hand of the person responsible for the panda-booting screenshot above. That thing has brought so much joy into our lives, and we’d like to personally thank its progenitor.

While some of us still think there’s no way that Tekken 6 for the PSP will release alongside its console counterparts, Namco is sticking to its guns on the October 27 release. And so the publisher has unleashed an alarming amount of media for the PSP port, including two new trailers that show off the first in-game footage and a host of new screens. Hit up the gallery below for the screens and head past the break for the second trailer.
Oh, and yes, Alisa totally took off her head and smacked Eddy with it. You didn’t imagine that part.

Listen, we were going to try and come up with a clever headline for this post (”Tekken 6 videos pull no punches!” or “PETA to protest video featuring brutal Jaguar-Man violence” were a few notable options) but we’ve decided to simply call it what it is: A hell of a lot of content from Namco’s upcoming brawler. Like, a whole lot. Like, three brief gameplay videos (two of which are posted after the break) and a gallery of 15 new screenshots.
Now that we think about it, we kinda wish we would have gone with that PETA headline. Oh well! Nothing we can do about it now. This post is already out there, ready for your consumption. We’ll try to remember to use it for our next Tekken 6 media dump.

Tekken 6 continues to expand its repertoire of manga-inspired special costumes. Masashi Kishimoto, creator of Naruto, is collaborating with Namco Bandai by creating an alternate outfit for Lars (seen above). This is the second costume from a famous mangaka for Tekken 6, the first being CLAMP’s design for Jin.
In addition to Kishimoto’s outfit, Tekken 6 will also feature an alternate costume for Zafina designed by Mutsumi Inomata, character designer of Tales of Destiny and Tales of Graces (after the break). While some were afraid these costumes would remain a strictly Japan-only affair, Siliconera reports that all three of the special costumes revealed so far will be available in the US version as well when it launches on October 27th.
