Get yerself some TEKKEN action from the PlayStation Store
Right then, before we go any further, let’s just bring you all up to speed: TEKKEN 5: Dark Resurrection was released earlier this year for download on the PlayStation Network for the PS3. Lucky PS3 owners now had cracking 1080p graphics and classic TEKKEN gameplay all in one package... but no online play. But here’s the good news, the online update, TEKKEN 5: Dark Resurrection Online, is on the way for $9.99... and it brings with it a full online side to TEKKEN.(Oh, and those of you who didn’t get TEKKEN can still download the original game from the PLAYSTATION Store for $19.99.)

The new online feature will include ranked matches, custom battles, and online tournaments where TEKKEN fans will finally be able to show off their fighting skills to have it out with other fans, outside of their own living rooms.
