PS3 still the best console for the Tekken 6

PS3 Blog writes: "Tekken has been with PlayStation since the beginning. I even played Tekken 1 at the arcades. So I'm a die hard Tekken fan. I was a little saddened to see Tekken 6 being released on the 360. But I'm happy to see that the PlayStation 3 is still the lead platform.

There are also rumors of Sony trying to snag exclusive DLC for Tekken 6. I hope that's true. Tekken owes it's success to the PlayStation brand. No word on what the DLC might be."

[PirateThom]

The PS3 has to be the lead platform... the arcade units were built with PS3 hardware.

[Lifendz]

Devil May Cry 4 and GTA 4 took that away from me. FFXIII was the straw that broke that back. I really don't care anymore about this stuff. So long as both versions are good, and the PS3 version isn't subpar, let the 360 guys enjoy the game as well.

It's not like we don't have a plethora of exclusives coming this year.

[solidsnakus]

who cares about tekken, i have a 360 and if i were to buy a fighter it be a good game like sc4 or doa4

[Gun_Senshi]

lol! DoA is not even a fighting game hahahahaha

[Neoraf]

For me it's a buy on my Xbox 360.

Tekken + Xbox Live = Best match.
Tekken + Achievments = Addiction.

Tekken + Tekken FightPad = Only way a true Tekken fan (like me) will play it. (console controller isn't allowed for purist.)

[ape007]

that other devs take note and build their games on ps3 architecture,cell spu's and the blu-ray huge capacity

bioshock 2,dev stated that blu-ray is better

gta 5,sam and dan houser claimed that gta 5 maybe too big for 360,gta is also a big game with so much going on,they will need the cell

rage,you all know this

cod:mw 2,I really wish IW take advantage of ps3's specs,a cod game need it

come on devs go on the seas are open :)

[kevoncox]

This article is written by a fanboy..
" i was sadden to hear that it's going to the 360"

WTF, why should that sadden you? Does that cause your Ps3 to stop working? Are your fingers unable to work because of this news? This is why I hate fanboys, they feel the ened to justify their choice of gaming hardware. Do I explain to my neighboor why I bought a Sony DVD player

[ape007]

tekken=ps3

tekken+trophies=more addiction than achievement(platinum trophy)

tekken+psn,same

tekken+ds3=best controlles ever

tekken+ps3=developed specially for it as said in the articale "it’s going to be a big challenge to bring the game to the Xbox 360"

and there are rumors that ps3 version has exclusive dlc

[OmarJA]

Actually all fighting games are better on the PS3...

[Stryfeno2]

And all Shooters are better on the 360.

[blackbeld]

Everybody knows Tekken on PS3 is better, plays better, graphics better, online better....

@patch seems like you never played Tekken before so... please stop trolling.

[Obama]

Well killzone 2 is not on the 360 so you are partially wrong.

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

...EVERYTHING on the PS3 is Better;)

[Darrius Cole]

All fighters are better on PS3 because.....for the ONE MILLIONTH TIME the PS3 D-Pad is much better.

[TheMART]

@ obama

Well KZ2 is @ 9.2 on Metacritic

Gears 1 is on 9.4
Gears 2 is on 9.3
Halo 3 is on 9.4

So sorry dude. The better shooters are on the 360. But hey, KZ2 has nice death animations. That's worth something!

[Cajun Chicken]

Personally can't wait for Tekken 6 on the PS3. Love Tekken, besides Tekken 5 and Tekken:DR got it so right after Tekken going a little off for a while, Tekken Tag, Tekken 4, didn't like them.

[jams_shop]

PS + Tekken = me buys. Tekken + other system = no sell(for me)

[CaptainHowdy]

I think i've said enough....

[jetlian]

sf4 pads are great. its better than the 360 and ps3 controllers!!!

i know it sounds crazy but its really good

[dkgshiz]

The D-pad owns.

[Raoh]

and tekken is one of the most complicated games when it comes to executing moves. it would suck to try a long hit combo only to have the d pad not respond properly mid way through the combo...

Tekken is no Half Circle fireball and jump fighter.

[Sprudling]

Can you remind me what moves are hard in Tekken? I played Tekken for years, but I can't recall anything much harder than the f,qcf-type of moves, except of course with a few exceptions, but all games have those.

I actually think Soul Calibur has slightly harder moves overall with its many double-diagonal moves (the quick way to execute dialogal 8-way-run moves).

Btw, the hardest single move I know of is Ivy's just frame Calamity Symphony. I've never seen it used outside practice mode and I probably never will :)

[LONEWOLF231]

Its funny how fighting games are indeed better on the PS3 WHILE FPS are better suited on the 360 controller.

[sak500]

@4

Yeah and all fps are better on 360.

The 360 controller rocks

[Raoh]

You dont just do a 4 or 5 button combo in tekken you do a 4 or 5 button combo followed by a 4 or 5 button combo followed by ............. etc

Impossible Tekken Moves
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

and its not a cheesing moves over and over its different moves followed by different moves followed by different moves

tekken separates the amateurs from the pros

[fafoon]

For any Game

[eagle21]

unless we're still in early 2007, I could have sworn I had some birthdays since then..lol

[killzone2flop]

But like every multi game it will look better on xbox360.

[topgeareasy]

PS3 > broken box 3fixme

[talltony]

If a multiplatform game is made on ps3's architecture first and then ported to 360, the ps3 version will look better and will be better cause of the dpad!

[Rhezin]

PS3=LEAD PLATFORM, F!CKHEAD. What a f@ggot.

[Pennywise]

He cant read.

[deividpaulo]

PS3 is the best console for EVERYTHING!!! FACT

[NMC2007]

I heard PS3 consoles give surprise blowjobs in the middle of the night, best at EVERYTHING indeed. -_-

[LONEWOLF231]

lol, what a foolish comment, the PS3 better suited for everything.........dream on kid. Yes granted the PS3 is an awesome machine, ive bought 4 myself BUT to say that its the best suited console for all types of games is stretching the truth a bit, last time i checked the PS pad is a pain in the @$$ for FPS.....yes and that includes KZ2.......NOT unless they tweaked the controls...in which case i take my comment back.

[sarshelyam]

You can customize your controls in Killzone 2 to your liking...if that doesn't work for you then YOU are broken, not the controller.

[Gun_Senshi]

hmm i was a hardcore tekken fan. i bought street fighter iv and i'm loving it :x

but in SFIV i still cannot get a fighter to suit me. on Tekken it was Hoawrang..

[Fontaine]

fafoon is just a proof of why Sony fanboys are considered to be so sad.

[Anon1974]

Shame on him for having a console preference.

[XxZxX]

you should know better, all you have to do is reflect.

[Freakwave003]

Downloadable Jun Kazama. She really needs to come back.

[TIKUP]

cant wait to own my mates with lilly again
yes she is a noob charachter but who cares when you beat your mates everytime

[mastiffchild]

While I love my PS3 I think you guys are being a touch naughy there! I agree that the 360's D-pad is it's worst enemy in fighting games though and not the console at all. Funnily enough Tekken:DR on PSP is still one of my favourite fighting games of recent times because it worked with the D-pad on that.

I dread, however, the feeble comparison shots we'll get when this comes out though I do expect this , like SF4, to sell better on PS3 because of the D-pad and it's PS heavy heritage in the same way NGS sold better on 360.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Well I bought the fighter pad for Street Fighter IV and it kicks the living crap out of the 360 dpad and the PS3 dpad. So I am set to play any fighter on the 360 just fine. Will probably pick this up on the PS3 anyway but the dpad argument is a lame one now considering a third party has come thru with a pad that out plays both systems.

[tordavis]

"I was a little saddened to see Tekken 6 being released on the 360."

I stopped reading there.

[dustgavin]

Why would you even bother reading the article in the first place?

[tordavis]

It might have been interesting.

[Graphics Whore]

I bought SF3 on PS3 and I'll do the same with this, there's probably not going to be any differences in graphics just the damn horrible D-PAD is terrible for fighting games.

[kewlkat007]

All that is left with fighters, is what controller best suits you and the edge always goes to PS3, no matter what.

Unless you get a fighter stick, then it doesn't matter as much but other things come into play.

This was the most talked about fighter before it went multiplatform...

Oh I do not forget..It was this against Dead or Alive, well that became pretty moot and now everyone is jumping on SF4. Sony no longer has an exclusive fighter...

[Cajun Chicken]

Yeah. I actually agree with your last part of the comment there. Strongly agree as a PS3 owner that the PS3 not having an exclusive fighter isn't that good.
No idea who could step in to the ring though. I personally want a new rival in the fighting genre of Namco, Capcom and Tecmo (Team Ninja).

Maybe some first party could make one later.

[kewlkat007]

fighting games don't that much.....

They are not pushing cutting edge visuals.hence pushing the hardware..

Sequels don't require much development time..

The profit margin is way too small to be Exclusive..

[NMC2007]

the toilet is still the best place for poop, basically the same thing.
-_-

[Bot Repellent]

Same for Street Fighter 4 and every other fighter,same for most racing games and sports games as well,it's only shooters where both consoles are equal.

Can't wait to play Jin Kazama in stunning true HD only on Ps3.

[Bot Repellent]

Cajun Chicken I agree I didnt like Tekken 4 so much which is why I skipped Tekken 5,hopefully Tekken 6 can innovate and impress as much as Tekken 3 did

[Cajun Chicken]

Try Tekken 5 on PS2. Its actually really good, inspired by some of the game mechanics of DoA.
Tekken Tag, Tekken 4...Nah, terrible, same as Wipeout Fusion was completely f**ked up from any other Wipeout.
Tekken 5 is when Tekken grabbed me again, and before I knew it, I had Dark Reserrection for PSP and the PSN online version.

I'd actually rate Tekken 5 for PS2 close to Tekken 3. If Tekken 6 adds more goods from the prev 3 games (in the same number) Tekken 6 could be a great fighter.

[PimpHandHappy]

Street Figher

[Sonyfanclubpresident]

Hahaha Sony fools.

[lokiroo420]

What games have you bought since gears, oh forgot, all that love=jack sh!t.

[Fontaine]

True HD on PS3? You mean sub-HD like Street Fighter 4, right?

Anyway, I'll buy the 360 version because it will have achievements, the better online community and probably even superior visuals, like happens most of the time.

[Neoraf]

Same thing here.
I'll buy Tekken 6 for my 360.

*Goes back playing Flower on my PS3 (Amazing visual experience!)

[Pennywise]

I think you meant sub-HD like StarOcean4.

[Mindboggle]

You mean like the PS3 will have trophies and you mean the better online community that is a screaming bunch of immature racist 13 year olds ???

You buy it on the 360...Expect no support from namco or any give on that d-pad.

[billez]

are there any tekken tournament (arcade vers.) in the US and Europe???

[TheMART]

Fun thing is:

360 to PS3 ports look like shiat

PS3 to 360 ports look equal

[Sonyfanclubpresident]

The PS3 was supposed to be sooooo superior,
what happened LOL?

Sony crap repeats itself another gen.
Emotion engine anyone?

Sony is getting just what they deserve this gen,
arrogant last place jokers.

[lokiroo420]

PS3 to 360 ports look equal

Doesnt that imply that the ps3 handles the game better? Code for the ps3 and both are better off. Code for the 360 and the game suffers.

[TheMART]

No it means the 360 hardware is powerfull enough to handle ports and the PS3 hardware is good for videostreaming purposes but it lacks the thing it needs to be a great gaming device.

[lokiroo420]

Yeah mart, your ignorant enough to not only believe that but ignorant enough to actually think anyone wants a response back from you.

[thehitman]

Better Controller could never think about trying to do everyone's moves on a 360 controller. I still enjoy playing tekkan5 DR on ps3 they did amazing job btw w/ it and the online isnt bad. If they had better matchmaking it be really nice and channels for chatting.

[Foxgod]

2 words, streetfighter fightpad.
Madcatz produces them, get one, and youl have no dpad worries ever again.

[BIGBOSS08]

its time for these exclusives to start going. tekken, gta, devil may cry, final fantasy etc.. sony used them to build the playstation and now they are building new games to get even stronger! you gotta concentrate on your 1t party now. no 3rd party developers would want to eve put thier games on just a single platform anymore because theres nothing in it for them. unless theres a pay cheque of course.

[KarIostomy]

just like SFIV?

[GiantEnemyCrab]

The trends sure seem to support it. Even when the PS3 is lead platform they still end up playing better on the 360 in some cases. haha what a fanboy article written by a fanboy who was "disappointed to see it go to the 360". If that doesn't expose this sham then I don't know what does. I'm sure both versions will be good however.

This is just more of the cry baby antics of "no no no I'm the bestest!".

More nuttiness from the nutters. =)

[I_Luv_2_Game]

Teken is a playstation game even if it is on the xbox.. Thats like if epic decides to put gears onto the playstation just to make some extra money off the install base of the xbox.. The game should sell better on the xbox and play better.. So i don't think anybody should be surprise if the game is better on the playstation..
