Gamespot has recently taken the oppurtunity to meet and interview Harada and Murray on the recently announced and released free-to-play Tekken over at E3. In this interview, they discuss several topics such as the decision behind some of the changes in the game, the possibility of adding new content, (including entirely new characters!) the possibility of features in this title to be added to future Tekken games and more. You can watch the interview below.
In November of 2010 I started this web site because the legendary SDTekken.com and IamTekken.com sites were slowing down and I myself wanted to see more Tekken related content out there. Since then I've been involved with countless projects in an attempt to see Tekken thrive. My life, just like anyone else's, has had its ups and downs both in the gaming world and in my personal life and I would be lying if I said I haven't considered dropping it all and "growing up." My main motivation to continue with avoidingthepuddle.com is not only the fans of the site, but Tekken fans in general. Lets face the facts, we play a game that needs it's community to keep it alive. Tekken needs sites like Level Up Your Game, Tekken Zaibatsu, and SDTekken so that fans have a place to go and get their Tekken fix!
After heavily considering the future of this site, I decided to try a new subscriber model in an attempt to raise some money to pay for site expenses as well as streaming and capture equipment. For those of you out there who really enjoy the content that is provided by ATP, you now have the option to subscribe for some added bonuses, which are listed below.

Words can't convey my thanks to all the supporters that have contributed in the past. Fans, friends who have helped run and maintain this site, and even people who hate my guts but love Tekken are the main reason this web site exists. Let's hope that avoidingthepuddle.com will "play on" for years to come.
