Although the event on October 24th started out a little late, our live streaming coverage of the Tekken 6 Launch Party in Southern California was a success with over 2200 views on the channel.

We started our night with a pre-show announcement made by MarkMan from SDTekken and MadCatz that stated if the live stream reached over 500 viewers, a free copy of the game would be given out. Once the show started, we had the opportunity to sit down and talk with the brand manager of Tekken 6 for Bandai Namco. Within forty minutes of the stream going live, it had reached the goal of 500 viewers. The viewers were then told to send an email to UFragTV and a random winner would be chosen. After over 235 emails were received, Cameron White was chosen as the lucky winner of a copy of Tekken 6 for the PS3.

During the event we also ran a trivia question contest to win an official 'Round Two' Street Fighter IV TE Fight Stick! We asked the viewers who the lead producer of Tekken 6 is. With over 250 email responses, Ari "fLoE" Weintraub was the winner with the correct answer of Katsuhiro Harada, so he won the TE Fight Stick for the Xbox 360.

Let's not forget the great tournament action we covered as well. In the grand finals we saw "The Iron Chef" battling "Aris". "Aris" played as "Drangunov" and "The Iron Chef" played as "Feng Wei". During the first match, "The Iron Chef" would win a round and "Aris" would just come back with a win of his own, keeping it tied up the whole match. After tying up four rounds, "Aris" took the 5th round, winning him the first match.

The second match just happened to play out the same way as the first, with "Aris" keeping it tied up and taking the match in the final round. Aris' defeat over The Iron Chef won him an awesome Tekken 6 Bundle from Bandai Namco.
