Well your good example is basically the only example. Also MGS4 is a major release for the PS3. Tekken on the other hand isn't GOTY material.

Those fighting games from 2008 are now old news. They could have stole some of Tekken's thunder if released close together. Obviously Namco didn't want the sales of Tekken 6 and Soul Calibur 4 competing with each other.

Lmao, I know. Anyways:

 

Tekken may not be GOTY material (Tekken 3 is the only one, I think), but it is (or at least, WAS) a strong brand name.

 

I think Tekken 6 would've been fine if released in December, since Soul Caliber released in late July.
