There were already a few signs hinting that Atari was having some trouble holding on to the Dragon Ball franchise. A couple of years ago, the publisher clashed with FUNimation over the game license. Namco Bandai announced last month that it had secured publishing rights to three new entries in the franchise. Today, Namco Bandai has announced that it's finishing what it started.

Europe will be getting two official limited editions of Namco Bandai's Tekken 6 (PlayStation 3,Xbox 360) thanks to the Japan development team. The said limited editions will be the Arcade Stick Edition and the Collectors Edition; these would be offered on top of the standalone game of Tekken 6 expected to come out to Europe this Autumn of 2009 for both the PS3 and the Xbox 360. More details await after the jump.

"Outdated" would be how the director of the famed classic, Tekken, would describe the feature of unlockable characters in fighting games. Said Katsuhiro Harada, online play makes this "no longer useful."

Namco Bandai has crammed in a lot of extra content for the console versions of Tekken 6, among them some extra costumes. We've already seen Penny Arcade's Cardboard Tube Samurai costume for Yoshimitsu, so now let's take a look at the one that Japanese manga group Clamp designed for Jin. Head on over to the full article for the screenshots including some for the PSP.

Welcome to Tekken day. Yep, it's turned into that. Anyway, Namco Bandai has already outlined the Scenario Campaign mode in Tekken 6, but if you want to have a better idea of how they're turning a fighting game into a co-op beat-'em-up then check out this video. Chain gun-wielding Jin and a giant robot after the jump.

After the earlier helping of Tekken 6 screenshots, here's some more good news from Namco Bandai. They've finally given out official release dates for the game's PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions along with details on some pre-order goodies.

Namco Bandai has released some new Tekken 6 screenshots featuring five of the fighters in the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament: Alisa Bosconovich, Eddy Gordo, Lars Alexandersson, Marshall Law, and my personal favorite, Yoshimitsu. Check 'em out after the jump.

What do you do with the cardboard tubes when all the toilet paper's gone? You put 'em all together and slap Tekken lords with 'em! Rumors sparked earlier when the TekkenBob Twitter page upped a picture of the Penny Arcade fan favorite, Cardboard Tube Samurai, making an appearance in Tekken 6. Now, in yet another Twitter Page, we got confirmation from Penny Arcade artist Mike "Gabe" Krahulik that it's for real. More after the jump.

Development on Namco Bandai's remake of Splatterhouse has been, to put it mildly, a bit bumpy. The original developer was pulled, but then we heard that they had to be asked for help in order to finish the game up. Development is reportedly continuing, but that doesn't mean we'll be seeing the game this year.

A new Scenario Campaign mode is making its way to the  PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Namco Bandai's Tekken 6. This new mode will allow players to take part in single or two-plaer online co-op campaigns, while also experiencing intense battles.
