PS360PCROCKS6196d ago

this game sucks I PLAYED IT today on my ps3 and I HATED it I dont like the controls at all

CrazzyMan6195d ago

you will get a redisigned ps3 controller with rumble in some november. ;)

artman6195d ago

VF is designed to use joystick... not gamepad... this game is for hardcore fighting game, if you can't play it... play dead or alive.
tekken will be great, but I still prefer street fighter III

snoop_dizzle6195d ago

i never got into the fighting games aside from smash brothers.

Is tekken or vf a better series?

The game looks good on the PS3 but shame it has no online and it was also confirmed the 360 version would not either...Now obviously there shouldnt be a problem porting the game over so am assuming the game has a timed exclusiveness meaning that it the 6month time frame for exclusives would be about right if it comes out in Autumn.

Which could mean it might as well be VF6 with online then?

N4GayFanturds6195d ago

How many 360 games are out that don't support XBL??? NONE (to my knowledge), especially 'versus' style games!

This is being reworked to add online play - I have no doubts!

THE TERMINATOR6195d ago

I doubt it will have online play, sega said themselves that the game needs perfect timing and Online play will ruin the experience. I think sega are having problems with the port because graphically at the moment the game is really inferior compared to the PS3 version but what do you expect its a 360 at the end of the day.

Bloodmask6195d ago

I would like to hope it is bc of the addition of online, but online was shot down as far as I remember. Most likely it is just for time exclusive reasons.

PS360WII6195d ago

Maybe they don't want to put a lot of money into a port so they need to strech the resources. It's fair to say fighting games have lost the appeal to most gamers :( a sad but true thought.

Or yeah maybe they figured out how to put online in the title, but I'm thinking not seeing that it was already confirmed by Sega that it's an offline game.... who knows

What is?

Witcher III, Slay the Spire, Virtua Fighter 5, and Sonic Mania are an excellent lineup of titles to add.

Smok911080d ago (Edited 1080d ago )

Lol thanks for your thoughts. Let’s now collectively disagree.

waderae1080d ago

How can you disagree with virtua fighter 5? You haven't played it. It's not out.

Hawk1986661079d ago

All the disagreeing are fools. You thinking adding a 6yrs old game thats timed, that's on sale nearly all the time for cheap is a great addition as the main game?? 2 of the games are previous PS+ games so a lot will already have them. And Virtua Fighter nearly everyone will already have that through plus! You're all Clueless

SegaSaturn6691080d ago

Those are great titles. Real treat.

Rocosaurus1080d ago

Love witcher 3, but that game is six years old.

Eidolon1080d ago

Great great game. Would need another playthrough (Gwent and horse racing) to get the platinum, plus I never bought/played the expansions.

monkey6021080d ago

Slay the Spire is an incredible game

Highrevz1080d ago

Agreed but I almost slept on it if I’m honest.

It’s like a traditional turn based RPG without the dramatic story. Monster Train is another good game if you need something similar to Slay the Spire.

monkey6021080d ago

I've heard that actually. Not played it yet though. Good shout!

I'd love to see Sega bring back Eternal Champions.

BlackTar1871526d ago

Why is there no Star Gladiator or Battle Arena Toshinden?

Terry_B1526d ago

Because the other 10 mentioned series were better. Star Gladiator 2 was just the first part with more characters, Battle Arena Toshinden went really downhill after the 2nd game.

BlackTar1871526d ago (Edited 1526d ago )

o got it. Cause you said those games aren't as good... Got it.

since Battle 1&2 were pretty damn good and Star Gladiator 1 was very good those sound like perfect games to remake.

Also saying a fighting game is the same as it's predecessor with more characters sums up like 90% of all sequel fighting games.

Also BA3 was not a bad game and wasn't given a bad reception.

Skuletor1526d ago (Edited 1526d ago )

I think licensing is one of the major reasons Fight for NY hasn't been ported, since its original release. Def Jam had a poll on their Twitter a year or two ago asking if people would be interested in a new entry to the series. A surprise next gen release with AKI developing it would be cool

Silly gameAr1526d ago

Definitely yes to Weaponlord, Bloody Roar, Rival Schools, Power Stone, Bushido Blade, Darkstalkers, and the Def Jam games. I was really big into fighting games when I was younger. I would Like Primal Rage, B.A,T., and Eternal Champions to come back as well.

BlackTar1871526d ago

Primal Rage was good. There was also another game that was kinda like Weaponlord that I used to really like but I can't remember the name.

Ready to Rumble was cool back int he day as well

Ninver1526d ago

Rival schools and virtual fighters

Ask Sega. All of Yu's games haven't gotten updates. And they aren't helping to bring Shenmue 3 to console and PC. Spent most of their time on Sonic and Yakuza. Like they forgot the man that got them started. He was the "Miyamoto of Sega." Too many hits under hits belt.

VF is one of the best if not the best, technical fighters around based on real fighting styles. No supers, no finishers,etc. I wish there wasn't any juggling. It was fun as a videogame mechanic but I would like full realism for a fighting game. It's like adding nos to Gran Turismo. Would be fun. Just doesn't fit the realism Kaz wants in his game of winning through skill and perseverance.

I'm hoping for a new Sega surge of games in and out of VR and more respect for Yu and his properties. It's just not the same Sega I grew up with though.

As a side thing, Sega could have even updated Last Bronx to a modern fighter like Namco did with Soul Blade to Soul Calibur.

But they've sat on that too.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1762d ago

I 100% agree with what you said about VF. As someone who use to play VF5 at a high level I want nothing more than VF6 however, I’m scared to see what would happen to VF in this day and age of super meters, rage bars and 100 hit combos.

SierraGuy1762d ago

Exactly...I love Tekken but I love VF a little bit more.

tulholdren1762d ago (Edited 1762d ago )

Loved me some VF wish they would update the game i still remember my first Jeffery power bomb on VF 1.

PhoenixUp1762d ago

What happened to a lot of Sega’s classic franchises?
