    is there going to be any video reporting, at least photo-shots or anything for people who live outside USA to look at.. ???

    • MarkMan says:

      We’re planning a stream!

      • thelonegamer says:

        A stream would be awesome. Or at least shoot vids of the highlights (and footage of the retail copy gameplay…). ^_^ Man, that’s going to be some awesome party. All us Tekken fans outside the US (heck, outside of SoCal even) will be toasting the game with you guys, surely.

        DAMN! It’s out in less than 6 days!!! Just freakin’ 6 days!!!

      • DJ Chacranajxy says:

        A stream would be legit. I’d go to your little launch party, but…

        maaaan, fuck IL and the Tekken launch parties we don’t get.

  2. x-raze says:

    IT’S TEK-KEEEEN. PARTY TYYYYME. EX-CELL-EEEEENT. WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO~

  3. zekeloveslili says:

    Is this going to be an all-ages event? I’m only sixteen but I’ve been playing Tekken since I was a kid. My dad was a big fan and it wore off on me.

  4. CHALLENGER 1980 says:

    Is there any chance you could re-locate this party to Japan? lol

  5. CHALLENGER 1980 says:

    *feels like a little kid looking out the window, watching his friends play in the back yard.*

  6. PhantomJ says:

    Sounds fun.

  7. AWESOME!! another thing on the other side of the US that i CANT go to! i love Tekken and the fact that i can NEVER go to anything big like and theres no kinda Tekken ANYTHING where i live. To tell the truth this sucks. I wish i lived in Socal. :( RI blows

  8. tekkenlover says:

    okay one question i remember about two months a ago or so the tekken director said that leo’s gender hasnt been decided yet!!!, so now anyone knows if leo is a boy or girl???

    • shortboy says:

      If we said that Leo was transgender, would that make you happy? The best of both worlds.

      Naw, I’m kidding haah.

    • VenoM362 says:

      VenoM362 is pretty sure Leo is a young lady. I mean she has female customs. Leo is just a tomboy, hell maybe she likes to eat muffins. Lol!!! I don’t know, all I know is that I will be sick with HER.

      I’m just saying…

    • crazy skip says:

      i stuck with ‘leo’s a girl’

      but people keep telling me guy… sounds like a guy… more like tomboy to me like what venom said

    • DrBhup666 says:

      Leo is a girl, but posing as a boy to enter the tournament or fool somebody. It’s a disguise or something…
      Badly done by her, because you can se her tits through the jacket and all…

  9. tekkenlover says:

    ok venoM362…but why u refer yourself as a third person, when u say that it reminds me of bob dole

  10. StarSlay3r says:

    Ahhhhhhhhh how did I not see this til now?!?!?! I’m SO going to have to stay in SD for the weekend to attend this. I’ll be there Friday for a SF4 tourney anyways so this is pretty cool! I’m excited! It’ll be cool to watch some top tekken 6 players kickin some ass down there too.

    MarkMan… Question! If I want to get 2 VIP passes (myself and Mike Ross) do I need to do it ahead of time or can I get them at the event?

  11. DeluksZ says:

    That sound fun… we definitely want some pictures or anything from the party. Hungary is a bit far to attend:)

  12. Rip says:

    I’ll be there! This is gonna be siiiick

  13. I420t says:

    Wish I could be there..

  14. Suiken!! says:

    I’ll make sure not to bet on Rip lol…

  15. Lenoh says:

    Take the Swaggin’ Wagon to NorCal already

    Modesto needs love too

  16. blackwolf1006 says:

  27. Chewbacca says:

    I was fucking high school when T6 was announced. Unbelievable to think it’s just a few days away.

    • SuperNova says:

      LoL, Same here man. I am damn near ready to graduate (2yr college lol). Its funny that I keep getting impatient because of the now 6day wait for tekken, when we “all” have been waiting for about 3-4yrs!!!! But I ain’t trippin’. Namco always delivers.

  28. gmbluedestiny says:

  34. Battling_boy says:

    There’s a slip cover for the case. Looks like they did not revise the cover with the new ps3 logo/layout.

    • concretebody says:
