Namco revealed some new details involving the Tekken games currently in development at the Tokyo Game Show.
Tekken Hybrid will be a Playstation 3 exclusive and has a release date of Winter 2011. The game was also revealed to be just an HD remake of previous PS2 games in the series while also containing the arcade version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Prologue and the animated film released over the summer.

Tekken Hybrid, which will be exclusively released on the PlayStation 3 this holiday season, will feature a HD re-make of the original Tekken Tag Tournament, Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Prologue, and the CG movie, Tekken: Blood Vengeance. The Prologue portion of the game will be a limited version of the arcade release, which will feature four characters (Alisa, Xiaoyu, Devil Jin, and Devil Kazuya), several levels, a two player versus mode but no single-player ladder mode. All three features that Hybrid has to offer will be 3D compatible, which will work out rather well for Tag Tournament 2’s 3D-model viewer.

Tekken 3D: Prime Edition for the 3DS was revealed to have a February 2012 release date and will use the touch pad in a similar way to the recently released Super Street Fighter IV 3D game but allowing a lot more moves and throws possible.

The game is also said to feature a roster of at least 40 fighters and two-player online play. It is also being said that it will run at 60 frames per-second, even with the 3D cranked all the way up! Oh and like Hybrid, 3D Prime will feature Blood Vengeance in its entirety

Nothing regarding Namco's Tekken vs Street Fighter was mentioned with the company refusing to provide any details until after SFxT is released and the current Tekken games finished.

Quick News Round-Up:
1) Mentioned in the PS Vita thread, the new terms of service for PSN removes the ability for users to sue Sony with class action lawsuits without the permission from Sony to go along with a clause that mentions any trial possible can not involve a jury and must be settled quickly. Sony is even going as far as removing the ability to use PSN should a user disagree with the new changes in the terms.
2) Twisted Pixel announces the DLC pack released for The Gunstringer on Kinect will be free for everyone starting next week after only Gold members appeared to get the DLC for free initially. The confusion occured when people assumed only Gold members would get the DLC for free while everyone else had to pay even though the studio mentioned before the DLC would be free for everyone when released.
3) Based on some details from a recent job posting, Lucas Arts is in the process of creating a new game in the Star Wars franchise involving the X-Wing. According to the posting, the studio is looking for programmers with experience in flight sims and arieal shooters which hints a X-Wing vs Tie Fighters game or a new game in the Battlefront series could be in development.
