Virtua Fighter 5 PS3 Preview

From 1up: "At a special press conference in Tokyo today, Sega let attendees play Virtua Fighter 5 on the PS3 for the very first time. I'll sum it up in two words: arcade perfect. While no VF freak like Milky or Shane, I wouldn't be able to comment on every intricacy (missing or present) in the version I played, but for all intents and purposes, this looks and plays just like the arcade game."

So hard to wait for this bad boy

Solidus6458d ago

Man I cant fricken wait looks so good.

Liverpool4ever6458d ago

Looks good, but not as good as DOA3.

.....

Yeah, I meant 3...

subcell6458d ago

DOA 3...come on...

twice the resolution...four times the polygons...

wait and see!

Sevir046458d ago (Edited 6458d ago )

lol!! still your opinon though but i'll respect it... what i dont respect is you being a fanboi... because the doa4 doesn't look that much more improved over 3.. the characters look the same... it's like team ninja spent more time with the bgs than anything. the game is good but it plays just like doa3 on xbox and doa2 on ps2... it's a wonder why Sega Didn't port this to the 360... simply because the linhberg Arcades are stronger than the 360 coustom multicore processor and the linhberg arcades use a coustom NVidia GPU so thats why this game is a ps3 title and in that regard anyway VF is regarded by many as the great 3d fighter out there, with tekken and Soul calibur and then DOA following behind it,. so be baised and exemplify why you are a fanboi/kid what ever... a personal taste in slow games i guess guess

Liverpool4ever6458d ago

I'm a fanboy because you didn't like my opinion? Seriously, these screens dosent look as good as DO3. I will just say it as it is, if this is what PS3 games will look like, i would recommend you to play some xbox or xbox 360 games.

"a personal taste in slow games i guess guess"
- And you call me a fanboy? Jeez..
If VF gets better than DOA, then I mean it.
If you dont believe me, and still believe I'm a hyper 360 fanboy, I sure can tell you, GT4 is x50 times better than Forza. There, happy now? But anyway, DOA is the best fighting game to date, both graphically and gameplay. I've played VF4, some tekken games, and offcourse SC2, but none of them is as good as DOA3 neither DOA4. But one thing I agree with you, is that DOA4 isn't that much improved from DO3.
Peace. I'm a non-fanboy :)

specialguest6458d ago

i don't get these silly DOA3/whatever vs. VF5 comparisons. these graphics on both games do not represent the consoles graphics power. also, they're different games from different developers.

DOA is cartoony, as well as VF5, nothing to be proud of in the graphics department. with that being said, the gameplay is what matters most and VF5 plays better as a fighter than DOA any day.

Liverpool4ever6458d ago

If I want to compare them to each other, I do that without being afraid of comments like yours! And I know I haven't said it represent the consoles graphic power......

"the gameplay is what matters most and VF5 plays better as a fighter than DOA any day"

- That's your opinion. I think DOA's gameplay is better, end of story.

Sevir046457d ago

I'm Saying you're a fanboi for comments like this.
"I will just say it as it is, if this is what PS3 games will look like, i would recommend you to play some xbox or xbox 360 games."

clearly proof of fanboi antics. You could have said that the game doesn't look very impressive visually, but you go out of the way to to say it looks like a last gen game and then tell us or others that ant this game to by a 360, FAN BOI in full force, your allegence to 360 is blindinng.
nuff said i dont need to go any further

Liverpool4ever6457d ago

If you didnt get it in your fat head, i meant to say that if "ALL" fighting games look like this to the PS3, it's better to play DOA3 on xbox and DOA4 on xbox 360.

"and then tell us or others that ant this game to by a 360"
- HUH? If this sentence is to make ANY sense, atleast you can write so we understand, or is that to much to ask for? You shout fanboy here, and fanboy there, why do you do that? HAVE I EVER CALLED YOU A FANBOY? NO!
If you dont have xbox 360 and have DOA4 or DOA3 to the xbox, (or atleast have tried them..), you should just stfu.

Itagaki stopped making games for the PS2 simply because he couldn't compete with Tekken and VF, which are both superior. Just look at the sales, the numbers do not lie.

Jealously is a powerful motivation tool.

What is?

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

Smok911085d ago (Edited 1085d ago )

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

waderae1085d 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.

Rocosaurus1085d 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.

monkey6021085d ago

Slay the Spire is an incredible game

Highrevz1085d 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.

monkey6021085d 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

Ninver1531d 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?
