So your saying the 360 cant handle tekken 6? The PS3 version is the cleaner looking version of the two anyways....the only thing gimped about it is probably the horrendous loading times- no thanks to the slow BDROM, easily correctible by an install(as is with most ps360 games) so I dont see your point. the reason companies "gimp" games is in order to get sales. (Bayonetta is a good example of this in NA), if both 360 and ps3 versions were the same the ps3 would prolly see better sales- right? most ppl dont wanna play the game coz the 360 is the superior version..even though its a fantastic game.

Sure logic dictates if you can get a better game on the PS3 or 360 devs should push that.. but since we currently live in a very expensive HD gen- devs need sales to survive.

I don't think he was one about how it handled or played but the release dates.

Arcade version of Tekken 6 came out in in arcades in Japan in 2007, based on PS3 arcade system. The game was released on PS3 and 360 2 entire years later. What took so long? The only thing that changed between the release dates is that 360 was added as a platform and they wanted simaltaneous release. So basically, PS3 owners had to wait an entire year for it.

No. The arcade version of Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion was released in Japan on December 18th 2008. What got released in November 2009 is the port of Bloodline Rebellion, not the original Tekken 6. You can't expect Namco to be able to port the game to even a single console in time for Christmas when they had 7 days to do so.

Considering this gave them time to make a near simultaneous PSP release also, shouldn't that also get partial blame in your scenario?

I never saw a point in removing "Bloodline Rebellion" from the title.  It's like they wanted to cause confusion.  The PSP version should have simply been "Tekken: Bloodline Rebellion".  Some people even mistaked the console version as the original "Tekken 6" and there was "another" Tekken 6 coming out sometime this year for consoles called "Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion".. Which, in turn, could have made namco loose a few sales.

I thought it was already said that the arcade version looks superior to the console versions anyway?  With PS3 looking the worst (lol)..  I want to see a game that pushes each system to their respective limits... probably wont happen with a fighter, but, it would be nice to see.  They could even use that goal as an advertising theme to boost sales... And lots of people would even have an excuse to buy 2+ versions of the same game.
