Fat dude punches kangaroo in the face: New Tekken 6 screens photo

Namco Bandai sent some new screens for the upcoming console versions of Tekken 6, and as promised, that includes images of a fat dude punching a kangaroo in the face.

This confirms a few things, most of which we already knew. One, Bob -- the "fat dude" -- will be in the game. The kangaroo, Roger Jr., is also making appearance. They'll be joining Miguel, Zafina, Armor King, and Raven, also pictured in these new images. The Iron Fist Tournament is going to be crowded when the game ships this fall for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 -- Namco Bandai says it has the "largest line-up the series has ever seen."

There's always a few of you who say that Tekken is the true king of fighting games. Then there's the crew who calls it out for being total s**t. You're all invited to argue in the comments.

I really hope Bob turns out better than Rufus. I can't stand Rufus in almost every way.

I F&#ing hate Tekken, & all fighting games for that matter. My mate Jonno would always use Angle & laser eye me horizontally & vertically across the stage so I could never touch him, I think it was Tekken 2 or 3 on the Play Station. It's statistically proven that Fighting games are the most people angry games. I am so part of that statistic.

OMG Jim is in Tekken 6! Oh. No, nevermind. It's somebody else.

And that wasn't a fat joke, they do kind of look similar.

Also, is Tekken 6 coming out for the PS2 now? Because it sure looks like it from the screens. Hopefully it'll look a lot better when it launches.

Tekken is garbage. I mean it doesn't even have Roseball!

Tekken is fucking silly. When was the last time you saw a panda or kangaroo in SF?

Oh but it's totally OK for SF to have Yoda, Darth Vader, Link, and Spawn.

I like tekken but I hate the over-the-top characters. Makes the animation look stupid and whatnot, and the headline says it all.

I can't wait for this game, but pretty sure I won't be playing as Bob. Not a fan of the bigger characters, but we'll see. Maybe he'll be the first big character that isn't focused on slow power hits and holds/throws.

I know it does but at least it doesn't rely on cheap tactics like SF4 where you have to lose 10 matches to a certain character before you figure out what moves of yours counter theirs. At least with VF and Tekken it's pretty evident how to counter or block something.

Cheap? Tekken is this:

Move opponent close to wall
Juggle opponent off ground
Juggle opponent off wall
Win.

Interesting; aside from the absolutely bizarre "independent fat movement mechanic" I actually think he's okay...

Well yeah I guess. Learning sucks. Trial and error sucks. Everyone should be able to be pro and juggle people on walls for 50% health as soon as they pick up a fighting game, simply by button mashing.
Because that makes a good video game.
Fuck having to figure out what moves counter what moves. Thats for nerds.

So Roger is female?

I played quite a bit of Tekken 3 back it the day but I couldn't go back to it after playing Soul Blade. The pace is just too slow in comparison.

Also, those crappy "special FX" that appear when someone makes a hit look tacky and out of place.
