Namco Bandai sent out a press release today boasting that it has shipped over 2.5 million copies of Tekken 6 worldwide. Now, we don’t want to tell Namco how to do its job, but these shipment numbers tend to be more impressive when you give the game a week or so in stores, so we can more readily infer a connection between shipped copies and sold copies.
The portion of those 2.5 million earmarked for Europe, for example, just got there today, and it’s only been in stores for around two days in North America. All we know based on this is that Namco expects to sell a ton of copies, not that it is selling a ton. Although we’re sure it will.
Maybe that’s the idea — to build excitement about Tekken 6 by showing how confident the publisher is. To print up 2.5 million of the things (some of which come in totally huge boxes), Namco must really believe it’s on to something!

Recommendation of the Week:
Monsturd (Netflix Watch Instantly)A lot of you have been asking about the pricing on certain Xbox releases. For instance Red Cliff is 800
($10) to rent in standard definition, as opposed to the normal rental price of 320 ($4) for SD. The reason for this is that it has not yet been released in theaters, and is exclusive to the Xbox 360, Amazon, and certain VOD outlets. The film actually opens on November 18, so the added price is for the benefit of seeing it early.
As usual, we’ll see you at the popcorn sta — well, actually, we won’t see you at all. But you catch our drift. Plus, be sure to tell us what you’ll be watching, or what you’ve seen recently that bowled you over.

G4 has a fresh new video of Mass Effect 2 goodness straight outta the space oven showing our good pal Shephard doing what he does best: shooting everything in sight. Your Shepard may be different, but for the sake of this post, Shepard is a man with a very itchy trigger finger, a lot of Renegade points and … a very dirty space suit. It’s dirty from all of the space blood!
Head past the break to check out the gameplay clip.

LucasArts has released a new trailer for LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues. Fans of Raiders of the Lost Ark — everyone, basically — are in for a treat, as the trailer reenacts the film’s bar fight in Nepal, including some hot Nazi hand-burning action. Of course, as we’ve come to expect from the LEGO series, the action doesn’t unfold quite like it does in the movie, opting instead for charming shtick.
Let’s just hope the game doesn’t nuke the fridge.

The Motorola DROID. It’s so good it needs CAPITAL LETTERS. Our American readers will be able to snap it up on Friday, and rumour has it that doors will open early. While you wait the next few days (and everyone else waits a bit longer), you can soak up the engadget review. The review does point out the slightly iffy camera but, apart from that it sounds pretty excellent.

Sony Ericsson are turning up the head ready for the November 3rd launch of the X3. There’s rumours swirling round the internet that this may be called the X10, or possibly the Rachel. Who knows. Either way, this is Sony Ericsson, Android style. A cheeky “What’s Next” video has popped up on YouTube showing a little more of this curvy new phone.
We get a few glimpses of the handset in a sporty white shade in this video but not a lot more. Gah.. all this waiting for new phones, it’s beginning to make our nerves jangle!
