General:
The Jack robot series was partly created by Dr. B. The original Jack is from Tekken 1, Jack-2 is from Tekken 2, Jack-3 is actually Gun Jack, Jack 4 was never playable in a game but can be seen in the Tekken 5 intro, Jack 5 is the playable version of Jack in Tekken 5, and Jack-6 of course is in Tekken 6.

Jane created Jack-5 him as an upgrade of Jack-4 and used the fifth tournament as a means of testing Jack-5. Returning to have his emotion program installed, Jane downloads Gun Jack's memories into him, but the results cause him to go berserk, ripping free and trashing the lab. As he brings down his arms in a crushing blow on Jane, the memories re-assert themselves and Jack stops, looking over his body in confusion. Jane goes to him and he picks her up in his arms gently, his original personality fully restored.

After Jack-5 had returned from collecting combat data at the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5, it returned to G Corporation’s laboratory where Jane proceeded to run advanced combat algorithms based on its research. Soon afterwards, war between the Mishima Financial Group and G Corporation broke out. And just as large numbers of production model Jacks were being dispatched to all parts of the world, unconfirmed reports stated that the Mishima Financial Group had drawn up plans of their own to imitate the killer robots. The audacity of someone coping her Jack angered Jane greatly; thus, she sent Jack-6, the newest Jack, to investigate the incoming reports.

Comment:
In the original Tekken, you couldn't really tell if he was supposed to be a "real" guy, or if he was actually a robot (due to the lack of polygonal power back in the day)... Heh heh. Jack was always an "awkward" design for obvious reasons. However, his latest re-incarnation is a bit more developed, a bit more robotic (that's good), and his moves are quite fearsome. It's good to see him back.
