Tekken 6 deserves so much more. I really don't get it.

It had little hype when it launched.

Yeah I remember that, though I was hoping that word of mouth would help its sales. I play a lot of fighting games and so far nothing comes close to the awesomeness of Tekken.

I haven't played it, but even a great game with little hype stands little chance to sell big in the now cutthroat game business.

In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

Tekken 6 sold THAT much while being so (IMO) off the Tekken formula and soul?
It deserves half of that, at best.

MK did nicely though. I prefer SFIV to it (and pretty much any other fighter these days), but well done.

MK's success is great for all fighters; new interest, new competition, new potential.

Ive have played all tekken games a lot and I cant seem to see a loss in tekkens quality at all. What do you mean off the formula?

A shitty beat-em-up for a story mode.

Way too much characters (and not enough balance).

Boring stages.

Meek graphics.

Online lags frequently, I find it hard to find games, too.

The perfect Tekken, IMO, is 4. I know I'm in the minority for this, but is.

(also, none of the above aside from 2 is true for SFIV)

That's true. Nowadays it's all about hype. Anyway, it's dirty cheap right now (especially used, since it's £10 new in the UK), so give it a try at some point.
