How far off is online play from being 'legit' in the FGC's eyes? PlayStation 5 may have input delay issues, and new Tekken 7 netcode gets huge praise

Plus, Tekken players really love their franchise, PlayStation 5 might have some input lag woes, and there's a surprising amount of things to say about chip damage.
