i guess they mean to your memory stick...but what about the 20gb ps3's without a card reader?

Funny that Namco will have 3 Fighting Games on PS3 with online, while Sega couldn't even give us one and are sketchy about patching it in.

Ontopic I am looking forward to this title. Can't wait to see what new looks Mitsurugi have, and Seigfried.

they probably shouldn't even bother with motion control. it'll be a gimmicky feature.

the fighting enthusiast would probably start the game off with an arcade stick anyway.

@3 I bet it will support USB drives if it supports memory stick/sd/cf. I don't imagine they're that much different to access and all PS3s have usb ports.

And I like the idea of "if it's actually going to make the game better" motion control. GRAW2 did it right when it used it for diving and the like and made it optional. Maybe they could use it for the parry here (that last second block that deflects the opponents weapon and gives you an opening instead of just blocking).

almost forgot about usb @ 6

Nooo.. motion control ruins everything!

i've thought about it, and using motion controlls in multiplayer tekken would be awesome. not for any of the normal moves, but for block, counter, and (new, just an idea) quick evade moves, it would be a really cool idea. eg. twist the controller to counter... i could see myself getting much better at countering like that.

only fighter i play is tekken tho so this doesnt really matter to me that much

NO MOTION CONTROL, PLEASE!!! THAT IS A TERRIBLE IDEA! I hate how PS3 games alway try to use motion controls, and very rarely do they not suck! Just because you can doesn't mean you should!

Motion controls? WHY would you do such a foolish thing!?

I wouldn't completely bash the motion controls. Just because they ended up sucking in Lair, they work very well IMHO in fl0w and Heavenly Sword (in Heavenly Sword, if you are knocked into the air, if you shake the controller you can recover and attack the enemy).

If done well (and maybe optional), why not? Assuming all motion control sucks is a mistake.

I want Dante as a new character, he was supposed to be in III wasn't he?

Tekken & Soul Calibur = 2 best fighting games... Can't wait.

The best motion control so far has been marble-table games like Super Rub-a-dub and Flow. I see no use for it in Tekken unless you want to shake the controller for extra boob-jiggle. Which might be hot. If you're 12.

That warrants a remake of Marble Madness! I'd pay for that!

But gyro on the SixAxis in fighting games eh? They could use it to implement new type of graple moves and characters jerk to break out of em.

I dunno. I for one don't see it being to successful unless they are part of mini-games.

WHAT ARE YOU ALL TALKING ABOUT?

Motion Controls would definitely work with the parry. As soon as you can parry, you pull up quickly with a similar motion. Much more practical than pressing back + block or forward + block!

This would OF COURSE BE OPTIONAL as it should on all games. Making hard core players choose which they prefer is what console gaming is about. Choice.

@Popfrogs: Boob-jiggle, if done right, could be Ivy's best weapon! Think about 20lbs of flesh whapping against you're face every second, left then right, left then right... You'd be tit-pounded senseless!

@20: Hahaha..the only defense would be the motorboat.
