Kuma Wrote: Greetings gamers and welcome to this Virtua Fighter 5 showcasing of one of VF’s fighting Gods Chibita talking about the latest Virtua Fighter game coming to Xbox Live and PlayStation Network. Enjoy the player diary and get ready to do some serious combat when this game hits the network for download this summer.
From Siliconera: "The latest Famitsu issue has special coverage to mark the release of Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown. It included an interview with chief producer Seiji Aoki from Sega. The interview revealed that Sega still has yet to make any plans for Virtua Fighter 6 as of Ultimate Showdown‘s release. "
Disappointing but I would think that the re-release of VF5 will play a large roll in if VF6 happens or not. Fighting games have went from "evergreen" coin eaters to e-sports competitions and I could see that making new titles difficult for the bean counters to justify. Still the current trends in fighters have me less then thrilled with the future of the genre. Way too much DLC, over priced season passes, $100 "day 1 editions" its all just become a bit ridiculous imo.
People want it, fighting games been releasing left and right these days. VF was like the only one that was a no show.
Well if they don't plan on using rollback netcode they might as well not bother. So far my VF matches have gone from "playable" to lag fests. I was really rooting for this game but they dropped the ball with the netcode.
Owners of Yakuza 6 can use this unlocker in order to play Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown without booting Yakuza 6.
Even though the Virtua Fighter brand has been a dependable one for Sega over the past few years, it doesn’t appear to be on the company’s agenda for the future -- at least, for the time being.
I'm happy they are bringing another Virtua Fighter for me personally is de best console fighter ever made..
I know every one will bring Tekken and Dead Or aLive up but I personally don't see Tekken as being in the same level I do get it it has more followers than VF but as "real fighting styles" VF kills TK (even tho they got the stupid monk so noobs would be happy) takes years to master right a VF character .. I know same can be said for TK and DOA but it's different lol
Lol and maybe it's a bit of fanboy in me for my
All time Saturn and Dreamcast fighting series lol bye I'm happy it's coming will be day one for me see you all online !! Errrr lol
This is going to be the first Virtua Fighter I have ever purchased so I am both excited and nervous. I love the character animations of the 4th installment and this one looks like it won't disappoint in that department so only God knows why I haven't drew myself to buy one until now.
Random note: Is it me or does Chibita looks a lot like Lion....
