Namco Bandai held a special press conference yesterday (just a few days before the Tokyo Game Show), where they went over new and upcoming titles and other special announcements.
One of the announcements was that Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion will be heading to the PLAYSTATION 3 (no word when) and will have MORE content than the arcade version (big surprise!)
IGN was at the event and mentioned in their latest podcast that the PS3 will NOT be getting the regular version of Tekken 6, which was released late 2007 in arcades. More news as we get it!
Here is the new Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion trailer from the AM Show 2008.
It features new characters Alisa Boskonovitch and Lars Alexanderson.
Video is below, and comes courtesy of yiggs via YouTube.
Enjoy!

The Soul Calibur franchise has made its mark outside of arcades, due in large part to the console-specific cameo characters. It worked with Link and Spawn, and the newest iteration is gathering acclaim for the inclusion of Vader and Yoda.
With the popularity of digital downloads, however, the prospect of adding even more beloved characters is entirely possible. Here's 12 famous gaming, movie, and comic book characters that would fit the fighting franchise perfectly.
12- Marcus Fenix: Why not bring a gun to a sword fight? Our pitch--in the midst of a massive battle against the Locust, Marcus Fenix runs out of bullets and calls for the Hammer of Dawn at the same time as the tremendously incompetent Damon Baird. When the streams cross, it creates a vortex that leads to 16th Century. Without any ammo, Marcus is forced to rev up his Chainsaw Bayonet and slice up his opponents in order to find a weapon that can kill the Queen for good.

The PSP is a great little platform with a good few years left in it still thanks to its versatility says Rebellion CTO Chris Kingsley.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, Kingsley noted that his company has probably done more games on the PSP than most publishers.
"It wasn't a deliberate choice, it just happened. We were very keen on it as a platform and it took off for us," he said.
Kingsley conceded that not as many publishers are supporting the PSP to the extent they once did.
"Well, you know what people are like - they all like to work on the flashy, high-end stuff.
"But there's still very good business to be done on the less glamorous platforms - look at PlayStation 2, it's still selling bucket-loads of consoles and bucket-loads of games, though they've got to be the right games for the right platform."
He noted that the PSP is "kicking the arse of pretty much every other system out there" in Japan bec... More »
