#Tekken 6 game reviews series

For a fighting game, the storyline in the game is one of the most robust and in-depth storylines written, and the various endings you can earn ON TOP of the Scenario Mode storyline are cool and generally give the game a rounded feel, story-wise. On one hand, the storyline in Tekken 6 is incredibly involved and, as youвЂ™ll see during your time in Scenario Mode (where you see all of the storyline elements), it generally fits together well enough. The various other tournament fighters all have their own personal motivations that compel them to take part in the tournament, of course, and each character has their own storyline and ending waiting to be seen and unlocked. Lars ends up developing amnesia during the raid, and he and Alisa decide to travel a bit in hopes of jogging his memory, not realizing that they both will play a rather significant part in the events taking place. On the other side of things, a rebel organization run by a man named Lars Alexandersson finds a robot version of Doctor BosconovitchвЂ™s daughter, Alisa, during a raid of one of his facilities. Kazuya places a bounty on JinвЂ™s head, which in turn inspires Jin to create a new King of Iron Fist tournament, which is exactly what Kazuya was hoping for. This in turn inspires his father, Kazuya Mishima, to rally the G Corporation, who fans of Tekken 4 and Tekken 5 will recall is the company that essentially brought Kazuya back from the dead, against Jin. His first act as the leader of the organization is apparently to declare war on the whole world, for no adequately explained reason (at least not at first).

It appears that Jin Kazama was the ultimate winner of the previous King of Iron Fist tournament, and as such, he becomes the new leader of the Mishima Zaibatsu. The story this time around is a good bit more involved than it was in previous games. This isnвЂ™t to say that Tekken 6 is a bad game, but some of the things done in the game are far better than others, and because of that, the game ends up being less impressive than it first seems to be. That said, there are some interesting changes and additions to the game that really make it worth checking out, even if youвЂ™re starting to tire of the series, so long as you can also handle the missteps the game makes along the way. Why fix what isnвЂ™t broken, right? Well, Tekken 6 adheres to that concept as much as any of the games, as it still plays like youвЂ™d expect, which should allow fans to really jump into it without a problem.

Those who arenвЂ™t fans of the franchise could point out that there hasnвЂ™t been a lot of innovation to the games over the years, but for fans, that isnвЂ™t a major complaint.

Generally speaking, with the possible exception of Tekken 4 and its weird position change mechanics, the various games in the series have often been solid improvements over one another and are usually quite enjoyable, if youвЂ™re a fan of the franchise. Tekken 6 is actually about the eighth version of the Tekken franchise to grace the console market, if one includes Tekken Tag Tournament and Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, but that doesnвЂ™t make it any less welcome.
