Namco recently announced a new clinically obese character for Tekken 6 - Bob. Now we get first screens of the fat guy going nutzoid in a fight.

His inflated physique may actually be a bit misleading because according to his biog he's a martial arts expert who put on the pounds purposely so he'd be able to take on larger enemies. Presumably he was a 7 stone wiener of a man before.

Whatever, his obese nature belies the fact that he's hard and fast - but also likely to suffer from heart attacks, shortness of breath, liver failure and deep vein thrombosis. Fat Bob can also be distracted during fights if his opponent whispers the words 'cakes', 'buns' or 'pork fat' at him.

For more fattist hilarity (it's not his fault - he's got a problem with his glands) check out the screens here.
