This game did get moe dev time....which makes a unfair comparrsion...but peole like to do that..oblivion does look better n the ps3 because of dev time

JUSTaGAME6160d ago

If all the SONY bragging is to be believed regarding the SHEER POWER of the PS3, it wouldn't matter how much time the XBox360 devs had with the console, it shouldn't be able to look nearly as good as the PS3 version.... unless......

THE PS3 ISN'T AS POWERFUL AS SONY SAYS IT IS!

Odion6160d ago

I'll care while I am playing this online!

xbotsRidiots6160d ago

didnt pick this game up for the PS3, TEKKEN 5 going online and TEKKEN 6 on its way no need to bother with this one.

Xeoset6160d ago

All that will do is make Developers see games always do better on the 360. You'll see more PS3 games going to the 360.

Is that what you really want?

romaink6160d ago

just a few months ago, VF5 was the "king of all fighting games" but now that we have this news, it should immediately be ignored and wait for tekken 6?
Wow!

PS360PCROCKS6160d ago

nice nice I didn't like the controls on the ps3 version maybe it will fit better for the 360 pad, atleast for my taste. Tekken is really what I want though.

Excalibur6160d ago (Edited 6160d ago )

Not only did the PS3 lose this as an exclusive, the 360 version is gonna be better.

What is?

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

Smok911086d ago (Edited 1086d ago )

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

waderae1086d ago

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

Hawk1986661085d 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

SegaSaturn6691086d ago

Those are great titles. Real treat.

Rocosaurus1086d ago

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

Eidolon1085d ago

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

monkey6021086d ago

Slay the Spire is an incredible game

Highrevz1086d 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.

monkey6021086d ago

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

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

BlackTar1871532d ago

Why is there no Star Gladiator or Battle Arena Toshinden?

Terry_B1532d 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.

BlackTar1871532d ago (Edited 1532d 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.

Skuletor1532d ago (Edited 1532d 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 gameAr1532d 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.

BlackTar1871532d 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

Ninver1532d 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.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1767d 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.

SierraGuy1767d ago

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

tulholdren1767d ago (Edited 1767d ago )

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

PhoenixUp1767d ago

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