Aside from that, the type of game he or she wants will also depend on what your child typically likes. For example, an outgoing child that likes outdoor activities will most likely have fun with sports related games while a kid that loves mysteries may enjoy role playing games that have a lot of twists and turns. The gender of your kid will also be a factor. A little boy will be more excited with hack and slash adventure games and a little girl will most likely enjoy dress up personality games.



One type of game that seems to suit girls and boys alike are fighting games (much to the dismay of some parents). And of all the fighting games that every kid wants to have, the upcoming Tekken 6 may just be the one video game that every kid is wishing to get this Christmas. This game is said to be released this coming September 2008 (from the initial release date of December 2007).

But what sets Tekken 6 above all the other fighting games like Marvel Ultimate Alliance or DOA? Since Tekken 3 onwards, this installment's graphics and fluidity of movement tops all other fighting games. And now that this new version promises other features while retaining the user friendliness of the previous installments, kids and even adults alike are now raring to have the home version of this game.

Some of the new features of the game are as follows:

Rage System

This makes the game a whole lot exciting once your character's life hits the red color. Your hits packs a lot more damage with this system. This is an automatic feature that you know will be working once you seem to have a red aura surrounding yiiur player.

Customization

Just like in Tekken 5, you can customize your player like change its clothes or even choose to have it play virtually wearing his or her birth day suit. A nice feature that the guys in Namco Bandai concocted and placed in the game.

Item Moves

These moves basically do not have a huge hit point loss if used but they are very quirky if used. Some of the item moves in this game are Anna's shoe, Asuka's fan and the funniest of them all are Bruce Irvin's chicks.

Longer health

Some hardcore fans of the Tekken series are saying that the item moves and the rage system are very noob (new players) friendly but actually, Tekken 6 has a longer vitality meter so these features are compensated.

Tekken actually has features that cater to boys and girls. The fighting part is a feature delighting both boys and girls and the customization most likely a feature to be enjoyed by girls. This is the reason why this is definitely the game every kid wants for Christmas.
