Tekken 6 News and Clarifications

Mishtram | April 13, 2007 | Reviews | Playstation 3 
SDTekken provides us with some information to clarify some of the basic information for the game.
New tidbits from the latest issue of Arcadia Magazine indicate a massive overhaul for many of the older characters in Tekken 6. Among the main highlights of the article were:

* Animations have been changed for every character!
* All characters have an “item move”, like the Bryan shotgun we saw at the AOU trailer. Although not all of them will have the same effectiveness.
* An example of an “item move” will be Anna throwing her high heels at her opponents.
* Harada officially stated that Leo IS a girl.
* So far Yoshimitsu has gone under the most drastic change. Harada notes that it will be much more difficult to use Yoshimitsu this time around and they consider him an “Expert” character. Part of his story includes the fact that his sword is now losing power and he must take a new fighting style, Kenjutsu from the Manji clan, this includes both dual sword fighting and pure fist fighting!
* A lot of Lei Wulong’s laying down stances have been changed. They look more like Lei Fei and Shun Di’s laying down stance from Virtua Fighter 5. They also changed the properties where Lei can be counter-hit and juggled out of his laying down stances.
* Many changes were done to Marshall Law. It is noted that fans of Bruce Lee and those that know of Jeet Kune Do will be very pleased.

    I'm a big fan of the Tekken series and I'm really looking forward to Tekken 6.

    Nice that they're bringing in some changes, I quite like tekken, but it seems to be getting perhaps a bit stale. Plus Virtual fighter 5 is a pretty top notch game.

    Looks / Sounds great, never played T5 unfortunately, but I've played the rest of the series and look forward to T6.

      I totally do that to: buy games and they sit in their plastic wrap for a while before I even think of playing them. XD

      Tekken games look amazing, but I never really tried them out. ^^;
