Namco Working On Tekken 6 Online Patch

Good.

If you read yesterday's Tekken 6 review, where I go on for a bit about how the online part of the game falls somewhere between "unpleasant" and "unplayable," then you might be interested in this update. We received this note from the game's publisher today...

Hello,
 
To improve the online game experience for players of TEKKEN® 6, NAMCO BANDAI Games is developing a downloadable update which will be available as soon as it has passed rigorous testing procedures.
 
More details regarding the content of the update and the timing of its release will be announced shortly.
 
This is separate from the online co-op Scenario Campaign mode update which is scheduled for release this winter.
 
Thanks for playing TEKKEN 6, and keep on fighting.

Color me hopeful for the future. Tekken 6 with more functional online is a much more appealing product than what's currently on shelves. We'll let you know if we hear anything more specific.
