Judging from the gameplay at the recent Devastation tournament, this is actually looking like a pretty decent game to pick up!
Apparently this one is due in 'fall' (so our spring), so we will have quite a wait! Hopefully we see some decent netcode in these versions! After living in remote/no arcacde type regions for so long it will be nice to be able to play against some 'human' opponents - although the screaming american teenagers on XBL could be a turn off...
Ah yeah, I saw on mightyape this morning (while preordering my SFIV CE) that the tentative release date is 25th Sep... which, as you say, is bloody ages away.
And it still won't be bloodline rebellion...
(and it's still Tekken :P)
the preview videos up on XBL show that it is, in fact Bloodline Rebellion, unless they've screwed up somewhere... but hey, BR looks mean
Indeed, it apparently is BR.
Gino is the only person I know who would really play this, and even he isn't interested... so there's not really much point in me caring either...
Has BR's international arcade release gone through yet? I'm pretty sure Yifan's only has regular T6, dunno how the rest of NZ is faring but I'd assume it's the same.
I was thinking of picking up Hwoarang or DJ (even though DJ has apparently been 'toned down').

say what,that tekken 4 was the shit,it was man. tekken tag was all right till tekken 4 came out then it had to ''move bitch get out the way,get out the way bitch, get out the way'' everyone i knew loved it jin had way better style than shitty tranvestite jun/kaz in tekken tag/Teken3
I ejoyed Tekken 4 fo a while. but i think the tiers in it were too large. And it was a bit too jabby.
I think Namco had the right idea. They were trying o move it away from the backdash forever bullshit, but something didnt click.

true i never even read the tiers back then you made me wana go look them up. yeah a bit too jabby till you get the first hit in then it was a bit too juggled like a whore. maybe because you guys were too good at it that you's didnt like it,oh well everyones got different taste. definately getting tekken 6 when it comes out, havent missed any of them and i aint gonna start now.
I've never played Tekken 4 in my life, I just hear every single other Tekken player hating on it utterly.
Also all the tournament results are like
Jin
Jin
Jin
Jin
Jin
Its definitly Bloodline Rebellion, or else there wouldnt be the new characters Alisa or Lars, its just renamed Tekken 6 over all with all the new features so they dont have to make another sub tittled game.
Release date is a global release according to sony reps so going by all american sites listed on the reserves at tekken.com website, its all pointing to October 27th
Bestbuy = 29th - October
Eb Games = 27th - October
Amazon - 27th - October
Gamestop - 27th October
on the other hand i could be wrong and NZ and the oceania pacific may recive a early release in september fingers crossed it is! ;D

Right you were!
A little birdie informed me of the proposed bundles for NZ... check first post for details :)
mighty ape has the collectors editions available for preorder now...
a wireless arcade control? Will that actually be any good?
It would be fine.
However, many tournaments ban wireless controllers because they are a complete pain in the ass. At the moment my tournaments are banning them also...
We are having a pre-show of Tekken 6 BR at our SF4 tournament this coming August 15th.

This NZ delay is hardout bullshiz, oh well im getting it actualy release even if i have ti import it! >:(
goddamn the release of this game is taking so long that ive lost interest in the game i prolly wont even buy the damn thing lol. The hype of sum games these days are far too early. I mean they've released footage of ff14 already and ff13 is no where near its release >:(

oh tru damn man square enix must be massive if its developing a bunch of games at once lol. As for wow and warcraft 4 all i kno is that they're games lol.
Yeah tekken delay is pretty balls, just for armageddon WTF. They are in effect stifling the competitive community and also pissing the rest of the people off (and making people skip over it completely!) by delaying.
I have a preorder up for it, but almost tempted to cancel now... Shame too, because it's probably going to be a pretty entertaining game.
I remember the old Armageddon where the only merch they really had was all the collectors shit and import toys that were pretty hard to get, after that it was all about the previews of games and the shit where developers actually took an interest in us. These days it's like HAY WE HAVE A SALE JK WE PUT A PRICE HIGHER THAN RETAIL AND DISCOUNTED IT LOL

I've reconsidered. Fuck this game, I'm cancelling my preorder.

yea da art book n other shit would be pretty sweet to have but with mvc2 out now i dont kno if ill get t6br
That's the spirit :)
Don't be hatin :(
Is there anybody on here that actually plays regularly at Yifans or Timezone or wherever it's played these days at arcades?
I believe there's another site which caters to and only to tekken. I guess you'll have to ask there, since none of them want to know about other fighting games enough to post here.

:'( wat bout me *sniff sniff*
But seriously i cbf playing in arcades if its $2 a game id prolly spend 100+ jus learning da damn game fuk dat. il jus wait for console release.
yea im a cheapskate lol
thats common sense, not being a cheapskate.
im basically the opposite of you.
The university I'm at (International Pacific College) is mostly international students, 65% Japanese. And pretty much all of them play Tekken, so I'm leveling up my Tekken skills like mad here.
Still miss BlazBlue though. :<
Tekken 6 is coming out for PS3/XBox 360 next week and seriously its about f*ckn time. The sad thing is(well not really) COD:Modern Warfare 2 and Gran Turismo 5 will be out soon as well and my copy of T6 will be tossed a side.
edit: ah f*k i've jus read dat GT5 will be released nxt year damn
Does LiveWire get ahold of tekken 6 before every other store in nz?
LiveWire release date is 28th October.
Mightyape and EB games release date is 5th November.

btw the NZ release is delayed due to Armageddon (for some reason), so we get it after everyone else. The places selling it earlier are importing it.

It's cause Timezone had Armageddon host their Asia/Pacific International Tournament.
I'm assuming they don't want a console release prior to the main event.
Fuck yeah i HAVE to get MW2, i took a blood oath.
Man i cant wait to see that tourny, be cool if someone from NZ won , preferably the Auckland dude.
Fuck i cant get krunk at armaggedon, stuck with my 12 yr old cousins ( And they'll probably scab off me ).
MW2 will be shit unless you like playing SP over and over

Eh bro ? why's that man, it sounds bad . I got faith in Infinity ward. How could they fuck it up, all they need to do is change maps, guns etc, and act on feedback from the ''fans'', which their already doing.
Ohh nah yeah your talking about the pc ver aye lol.

Hmmm... BG is representing auckland. I hope Jerry does better to be honest. Yes, I'm being bias.
In fact, if I go on that logic, I'd prefer if a filipino won. They are mad tekken players. There's heaps of them, and they're all varied in terms of character mains.

I hope a drunken stoner wins , they are the best Tekken players and mains the random box.

Sweet. Going to order from firstgames as they are going to release it next week!
I was just thinking... anyone want to write a little review of this for NZism? I would, but I don't feel I have the knowledge of the recent Tekkens sufficient to compare against this new one. Oh yeah, also I don't have the game.
they're fobbing off the artwork books that come bundled with the collectors edition of this game over at livewire separately, at $35 each.
i snagged one, cause im into that kinda shit. basically just renders of each character and then some concept artwork at the back. some good ideas that werent used :S ill probably get this game eventually, but by the time i do collectors edition be long gone.

Damn $35 son!!!
You gotta photo copy it for me bro.
hah, you could probably find a pdf scan of the book online if you looked hard enough. the renders are pretty cool, julia being my favourite. got some meat on those thighs :D
oh yeah, livewire is selling the other parts of the collectors edition separarely as well. the hoody theyre selling for about $40, cant remember the pricing on the stick though.
I particularly liked the back of the art book saying "Not for sale"

Bro i wish i knew how to blackmail them with that information aye. They make like 100% profit off that shit. No one gets rich in my hood but ME!!!.
Target was asked about the coke can thing a while back, they basically said "yeah it's perfectly legal to sell them despite saying 'not for individual sale'... it's just a scare tactic"
heads up, mighty ape is selling t6 for 360 for $50 atm http://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/Xbox-360/Tekken-6/2733732/
Fuck. Lets hope they do the same for PS3... I've been meaning to buy it, but I can't justify $100+ on... Tekken :/
That almost convinces me to buy it.
I picked Tekken up the day it came out in Palmerston North. Got myself two controllers, HDMI cable, PS3 Slim / Tekken 6 bundle for $600.
