Ya know, I've really liked Tekken for quite some time, played in many of the tournaments held for this game since TekkenTag. However I can honestly say that I am not happy with what Namco is doing for Tekken 6, the game sound to me more like a Newbie Scrub Fest game then an actual in-depth game.
All 8-Framers turned to 10-Framers, LowParry cannot lead to decent punishes anymore, Rage System?!, Bind and Bounce System?! Items being useable?! I don't know anymore, because Namco never even bothered to fix the Crush System, which was a huge problem in Tekken5.
The things they did do well was that in T6, Juggles are harder, and they do less damage, however with Rage System, and items being useable was the most stupid idea...when I saw Anna picking her shoe up and throwing it at Nina, that just look dumb.
I don't know, Tekken 5 was a Scrubby/Newbie Friendly game, and the absolute worse Tekken from a game engine perspective, so my hopes for Tekken 6 aren't all that high.
My only bright side of Tekken 6 is that it seems like Jin got beefed up slightly from his Tekken 5 version, so he won't be as bad of a character anymore, hopefully he'll regain his Top Tier, if not, at least Upper Tier status.
Just incase some of you have never seen it, these are some videos of Top Lvled Players from Tekken
Tekken Tag Tournament with Jang Iksu the Korean Player, and without a doubt, the best Tekken player of all time! So sad he quit after 3 years of playing though...Jang Iksu is the player on the left.
