Tekken 6's Online Mode Is Going To Get All Patched Up According To Namco

We're reviewing Tekken 6 as we type, and rather enjoying it to be honest

It has its faults, but if you're a Tekken fan, there's no way you're coming away disappointed. Sadly, the game's online is probably the weakest part, with very hit or miss net-code leading to lag. Sometimes it's fine, other times it's less so. It's always playable, just not ideal. Namco realise that and want you to know..

Alas, the franchise is far from over, with ideas already being brainstormed for a theatrical follow-up. We reckon: it'll be a matter of time.

Namco Bandai yanked the project off of Bottlerocket, then they subsequently closed down, and we've not heard much since. If you were anticipating the game early 2010, then, well, perhaps it's time to stop reading — we have bad news. Namco Bandai are saying the game is coming in Q3, 2010.

Batman Arkham Asylum Tops The UK Charts, XBOX 360 SKU Narrowly Beats Out The Playstation 3

Rocksteady's masterpiece Batman Arkham Asylum may go on to be many people's game of the year, but it all counts for nothing if it doesn't sell

Thankfully the title has topped the UK charts, offsetting Nintendo's Wii Sports Resort and resting a comfortable victor. The XBOX 360 version narrowly outsold the PS3 (with a 55% share) — we assume the exclusive Joker content on the PS3 version of the game..
