Tekken 6 Limited Edition Wireless Fight Stick Bundle
A very good product. Sufficient palm space, sturdy hit buttons, fast wireless response and a very great game! Highly recommended!


Tekken Refined
First off; if you like fighting games, you need one (or two) of these wireless arcade sticks. There is no noticeable lag whatsoever, and the units are large enough for any size hands. Now, on to the game: Tekken 6 has refined its' mechanics to a very high degree. The game is a blast. As I write this, my friends and I have played over 70 straight rounds in a round-robin tourney. Even my friend's wife has played and enjoyed herself. I will break my review down as follows:

Graphics: 4/5. The game looks great. It isn't the best in the graphics category, but the characters and stages are filled with detail and dynamic interaction. Some stages are even multi-tiered, similar to the DOA series.

Sound: 5/5. A good job was done with the music, and the surround effects. For a fighter, the sound is excellent, and even the voice acting is good.

Gameplay: 5/5. I was never a huge Tekken fan, because the controls felt sloppy compared to other fighters. Not so with Tekken 6. Combos can be hard to learn at first, because it plays differently than other fighters, but the controls are responsive, and make sense.

Fun: 5/5. Like I said, the game is a blast. Nearly every character in the game is opened from the get-go, meaning you don't have to grind through arcade or story to have a large roster.

If you're a fighter fan, get this set. The only complaint have is that you have to buy two copies of the game to get two sticks.


Great Game, Horrible Stick
Well, to start off with, Tekken 6 is a great game. Tekken has always been one of my favorite fighting game series since Tekken 2 (except for Tekken 4) and this game does not fail to deliver. They have kept the gameplay essentially the same as Tekken 5, while adding a ton of interesting new characters, new moves and the Bound system, which allows you to extend your juggles beyond what you normally would have been able to in previous Tekken games. While I am no master at Tekken, I do enjoy playing and play quite often both online and offline. Unfortunately, online is one of the weaknesses of the game, which has been a weakness of Namco for some time now. If you play the game regularly offline, you will definitely notice some input lag online even on the 4 and 5 bar connections (which are the highest connections). Personally I only play 4 and 5 bar connections in ranked matches and I sometimes play 3 bar connections in non-ranked matches; but I never play 1 or 2 bar connections.

So since I love the game so much, you may be wondering why I gave this particular copy a 3 out of 5 stars...well, that's because of the fighting stick that comes with it. Quite frankly, that stick is a piece of crap. I bought this bundle when it was on Amazon and thought I was getting an amazing deal, a wireless stick with the game for only so essentially only for the stick assuming the game was at the time. Unfortunately, as I stated, the stick is a piece of crap. First off it's wireless, which is not ideal for online play where you already have input lag because there's obviously going to be some additional input lag from a wireless controller/stick. Secondly, the stick itself is very weak - I never liked the buttons very much, they felt sticky from the very beginning and then eventually one of the buttons broke on me after only having had the stick for a month or so. So all in all, the stick is definitely not worth it. I ended up buying a SFIV Tournament Edition stick off Amazon back when it was 0 and I love it, it is great.

Now I will say that the art book that comes with the bundle is quite nice if you're a big Tekken fan like me; but I'd probably still say that the bundle is not worth it. Just get the game by itself and buy a good stick, like the SFIV TE stick, if you really want to play with a stick.

Well, that's my advice - hope it helps.


Tekken 6 Limited Edition (joystick review)
I am an avid Tekken player. I've been a fan of the series since Tekken 2. The game is great. This review is for the joystick included in the LE. I've used other joysticks in the past. I actually have the Hori Soul Calibur 4 stick. The tekken stick feels a bit lower in quality than the Soul Calibur stick I have been playing with. There isn't much weight to the stick, but I suppose different strokes for different folks, eh? The main problem I have with the stick is that it just doesn't meet my standards. There is an incredible amount of free play in the joystick. I've measured and its about 1/4 of an inch of free play moving the stick in any direction. (meaning that before you can move the stick to the left, right, up, down, etc. you must first overcome the 1/4 inch free play before it recognizes input). The buttons feel very spongy and have a bit of resistance to them. I'm used to playing with arcade sticks so it will take a bit of time to get used to this one. I bought this as a secondary stick and because I couldn't pass up buying the bundle for . It will work fine as a secondary stick. I would make the following analogy concerning this arcade stick. If you ever have been to a friends house and he has but two controllers... 1) standard dual shock and 2) a third party dual shock (pelican). Which would you prefer? Playing with this stick is a bit like that. There are better ones out there but it will get the job done. I will be investing in the Street Fighter Tournament stick made by mad catz though. As for input lag.... I did notice slight lag playing SF remix (downloadable on PS store). However, I did not notice any while playing Tekken 6.

For someone on the fence about buying this:
If you are looking for a wireless stick...go for it.
If you want a quality arcade stick, look elsewhere.
If this is your first arcade stick... go elsewhere.
If you have a quality stick and just want another so that your friends don't complain about you being the only one with an arcade stick...Go for it. Just make sure that you are not the one using the Tekken stick :)

For the money paid it is ok.

Final Review:
Tekken 6 - 8.5/10
Tekken 6 Wireless arcade stick 6/10
Paying for both 9/10


Good price for a decent game & joystick...
The game looks nice but not feeling the mechanics. The wireless fight stick will be fine for the average consumer since it works as advertised. However, if you're a hardcore gamer then this will be horrible due to big dead-zone on lever & small area to lay your palms.
