It was clear that this CG render would be impossible to realize in realtime, unless the PS3 had an NV50 / G80 (GeForce 8800) in it, as its GPU, which PS3 sure as hell does NOT have (PS3's RSX is a customized and -downgraded- NV47 / G70 / G71) then in 2006, Namco goes in the opposite direction, shows us a realtime video of Tekken 6 for PS3 with graphics barely any better than what we've seen from the turbo-charged PS2-based arcade System 256 used for Tekken 5 and Tekken 5: DR (recently released in 1080p for PS3 as a download) Now from the AOU show comes the real arcade Tekken 6. Nobody seems to know the name of the arcade system that Tekken 6 is using, yet, but it almost has to be PS3-based, as all arcade Tekken games are based on PS1/PS2 arcade boards (System 11, System 246 respectively) or enhanced PS1/PS2 boards (System 12, System 256 respectively) without further delay......

I'm betting Tekken 6 stays PS3-exclusive, does not go multi-platform like VF5 is, but one never knows in this climate of PS3 not doing too well and fierce competition this generation.
