Great game but could have had more going for it

Tekken 6 is finally out on the PSP! Yes, it's been 3 years since Dark Resurrection came out on the PSP, so how does this compare to the 2006 game?
Well, lets just say the gameplay is perfectly in tact but most of the modes that were present in DR are no longer here. I won't go into the gameplay changes since 6 is pretty much a big leap from 5 so instead, I'll just pinpoint the changes made from DR and the console versions of Tekken 6.
First off, here are my complaints on Tekken 6 for the PSP.
There's no more quick battle mode, they removed Tekken Dojo, no more online connectivity to the network, no gameshare option, only 4 stages in Ad-Hoc (Multiplayer), No music theater, No more instant replays in between matches, no team battle, no command attack mode, no more record move option in Practice, you still can't select a stage in practice, you can't choose left or right starting positions, sound quality isn't on par with DR, there's no longer any bonus games like Tekken Bowling and no ranking list for Suvival Mode or Time Attack or character usage percentage!
Yeah, that's a ton of stuff taken out. I really wonder why the creators did that? By means of features, this game pales in comparison to DR.
It's as if they didn't invest that much effort into making a complete handheld port. Instead they pulled off exactly what they did with Soul Calibur Broken Destiny.
Aside from all that, the game is great. Gameplay is console/arcade perfect so there's no complaints there. The graphics look great and music is also good.
The game is great but it could have been way better if they invested more time into the features.
