Mere moments after Jin's departure from Hon-Maru, helicopters start to approach the Dojo. The noise wakes Heihachi and Kazuya up, and moments later, a squadron of Jack-4's burst through the walls. The Jack-4's target Heihachi and Kazuya, and Kazuya immediately deduces that they have been sent by G Corporation, who no longer need Kazuya and now want him dead.
Heihachi and Kazuya team up to fight the Jack-4s, and bring down scores of the androids together. But Heihachi starts to lose his strength. Kazuya takes advantage of this, and throws his father into the Jack-4's, who pile up on him while Kazuya morphs into his Devil form and escapes in triumph. Seconds later, Hon-Maru blows up. The only witness to the blast is a mysterious agent clad in black, known as Raven, who declares Heihachi dead into his communicator. Raven is attacked by a Jack-4, which he swiftly slices in half.
The next day, Heihachi's death is declared all over the world (unknown to everyone, Heihachi is still alive), and everyone foresees the end of the Mishima Zaibatsu. However, someone else has already taken over the company and business continues as usual. Two months later, the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5 is announced.
Meanwhile, Jin Kazama's Devil Gene is going berserk, and he decides to search for the one responsible for the change by entering the tournament. Kazuya also enters to find out exactly who in G Corporation sent the Jack-4's to kill him, and take his revenge.
As Jin and Kazuya progress through the tournament, the secret sponsor is finally revealed: Jinpachi Mishima, the father of Heihachi and who has been missing for the past Thirty years. As it turns out, Jinpachi is the founder of the Mishima Zaibatsu and was a respected martial arts master until his greedy son, Heihachi, stole the company from him and had him imprisoned underneath Hon-Maru after Jinpachi attempted a Coup d'état (Heihachi was steering the company into the military industry, something Jinpachi believed was not right). Jinpachi died soon afterwards of starvation, until the Devil took over his mind and granted him immortality (as well as a Devil Gene), and Jinpachi was finally freed from his prison when the Jack-4's destroyed Hon-Maru. As of now, the Devil Gene is slowly consuming Jinpachi's mind, and Jinpachi has announced the tournament in hopes that someone will kill him and put an end to his reign of terror before it even starts.
In the end, Jin makes it to the final, and faces his Devil-powered great-grandfather in combat. Ultimately, Jin manages to defeat Jinpachi, who dissolves into dust and disappears, his wish fulfilled. Jin is now the new owner of the Mishima Zaibatsu.

It has been revealed that EA Sports have been developing a new cricket game to be released during 2009. The head of EA Sports Peter Moore has been quoted in the past saying that the company was going to increase attention to more "Niche" titles. Turns out another iteration of a cricket game was a result. The game was initially leaked by the Australian Classification Board like so many games have in the past. Cricket '09 will be developed by EA Sports Canada which is the same team that has created previous EA Cricket titles in the past.
The best news is that Cricket '09 has been listed as a multi-platform title. It hasn't been specified exactly what consoles this game will hit but a Wii edition seems highly likely. This is great news for any cricket fan out there. A true next generation EA Cricket game was long overdue and with India' economy booming there is no reason this title can not be a success for EA and for the consumer. Hopefully we can all be swinging our virtual cricket bats later on in the year.

To celebrate the release of Grand Theft Auto IV, we here at IGN DVD have decided to present a special, three-part edition of The Ultimate X Collection devoted entirely to the criminal spirit and urban geography of the GTA franchise. Through the eyes of gangsters, gangstas and Eastern European mafia, the series has chronicled the crime-ridden underbelly of American cities such as Miami, Los Angles and New York in the guise of three sprawling, fictional landscapes. Yesterday, we honored Miami, the 1980's pastel city of vice so cleverly parodied in the first GTA III spin-off. Today, we salute San Andreas, or perhaps more appropriately "Los Angeles circa 1990." Seen from the point of view of C.J., a mid-twenties African-American pulled tragically back into the gang-land thug-life, San Andreas took a gritty snapshot of a Los Angeles nearly two decades old and added just a splash of timeless, old-school Las Vegas. Inspired by early-90's gangsta films like "Menace II Society," GTA: San Andreas perfected the recipe of urban gang violence, metropolitan madness and GTA's patented social satire. With that in mind, we've gone past the obvious inclusions like Menace or Friday and put together the three Los Angeles films that best represent each of the game's core ingredients.
