IGN got a chance to talk to the producer of Virtua Fighter 5.
Find out what they talked about by clicking the link below...
Plus celebrate Sonic’s 30th anniversary with a trio of titles: Sonic Mania, Team Sonic Racing and Sonic Forces.
Although fighting games are entering a new Golden Age, there's a number of franchises that deserve to be brought back.
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
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.
It’s been a while since we got a new Virtua Fighter game. What’s going with the series?
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.
Loved me some VF wish they would update the game i still remember my first Jeffery power bomb on VF 1.
decent beat-em up for the ps3!
Installment of this series and again, I used to play lots of fighting games in my SNEs/PS days. These fighters are offering nothing new.
I wish you could just play fighters like on XBL without having to purchase the actualy game. Then you could just play arcade style whenever you wanted to.
Prettier graphics as always but then again its just a fighter. Me and my old buddies 10 deep don't get together anymore like we used to to play MK2 on the SNES or Tekken 2(which was the best) on PSone and Streefighter....ect Any fighter without Online play doesn't have much replay value so I won't buy it unless....
the game.yeah it's not that much that is new.but virtua fighter has always been a great technical fighter.i see he takes shots at dead or alive.i like dead or alive,but it gets old because it's not deep.so itagaki puts lots of fluff in it.(costumes etc).i know because i played every version.(jap and us). not having online doesn't kill any game.start inviting your friends back over.have a cook out and play games.
Possibly the deepest fighting game ever. This game has never been the most graphically superior game (that award probably goes to the second most technical fighter, Soul Caliber), but has given me countless hours of fun. I can't wait for this game to come out.
I guess that was my Pre-gf, pre-2 jobs, pre-40+ hour weeks, pre-working out days. I used to a have all the time in the world. Now I'm a casual gamer, I like Racers, Online fighters(beating the computer gets old), Sports(my beloved 2K series), Rpg's(FF7, castlevanis SOTN type games eventhough the genre hasn't changed much)) and RTS on the PC.
