Very good score. It looked really fun on the GB quick look. Animations are excellent.

They could give it a 1.5 and I'd still buy it.

It's my most anticipated game right now, and has been all year. October 30th can't come soon enough!

Screw them, I think the game's prettier than that! Unless it's about that HD upscaling issue.....but I play my games on SDTV. BECOZ ITS RETROSCHOOL, YOU CHUMPS!

Yeah, don't care if they get 5's or 4's, Tekken 6 could be my GOTY.

8.8 is actually considered a great score, it says it right at the bottom of the review.

Fighting games always get underated. I figure if it is a 7 or above, it's going to be good.

Fix'd. And that was only the case last gen. IGN's also given Blazblue a 9.4 and SF4 a 9.3 so far this gen.

They were lazy. I thought it would be a lot better considering all other previous Tekkens were some of the best looking fighting games on the consoles (PS1 and PS2).

I must say from the scores of each category, I was surprised it got an 8.8. I would've expected a 7.8-8.3. Great score, though lil disappointed at the graphics (they spent ages on the game)

Meh.....I'm not really a Tekken fan (never really have been).....the fighting engine needs some major tweaks imo. It needs to play more like Virtua Fighter and Dead or Alive.

I'm picking this up midnight Monday. I've been waiting a long time for a new Tekken. To top if off, my local Gamestop is having a tournament on Halloween. I'm definatly going to be there.

nVidiaGaMer

Overall has better technical department than VF5, DOA 4, Street Fighter IV and Soul Calibur IV.

Has evolved and scaled the fighting games in the visuals in the same proportion as shooters or car games from the last gen? Nope, but Tekken 6 is still one of the finest games of the gen: 60 fps, auto self shadowing, global lightning, use of the Octave Engine in water and snow physics, motion blur, mortion capture, motion blending...

It doesn't come out to be 8.8 because that is the overal score not the average score for each area. The review even mentions that it is not a average score right next to the game rating, which in this case is next to the 8.8 score. BTW great score for Tekken 6 looking forward to it, was hoping they work on the looks for this game more but it's not really a mjor issue for me.

I hate to bag a game that has scored 8.8, but this is still a little disappointing to hear, basically it getting an 8.8 means its bascially Tekken 5 HD with better online and that's all. Which while still good, ain't exactly going to mean its not just more of the same with no real evolution.

That review mentioned NOTHING about the low parry move. This wasn't reviewed by an expert tekken player.
