Oh Tekken 6 Coverage... Where Are Tho?
April 6th, 2008 Posted by Castel
Some, if not most of you have probably been wondering when things are going to kick in full gear again around here. Well... the long and short of it is, we simply don't have the tools to do the job this time around!
As most of you already know, Tekken 6 will not be officially released in US arcades. This has a major impact on the game coverage you have come to expect from Tekken Zaibatsu over the years. Since the release of Tekken Tag Tournament we have been fortunate enough to have unlimited private access to the arcade version of the game, which allowed us to prepare in depth move lists, explore customizations and produce direct feed footage without any restrictions.
This will not be the case with Tekken 6 however and regret to inform you we have no choice but to drastically cut down on the amount of coverage for this game.
So what about after the game is released on console you may ask? Creating move lists in such great detail as we have done for past games takes time... lots of time, sometimes up to 4 or 5 hours per character. One might wonder if it is worth to do so when everybody has ready access to in game move lists, practice mode and an unlimited supply of customization credits.
I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there.
