IGN take a jab at the Xbox 360 version.
"The gameplay is nearly identical to the PS3 version, which is to say that it is pretty darn good. Slight changes have been made for balancing. The 360 version of the game uses the arcade version C while the PS3 used the B version. We don't know the differences between them and SEGA wasn't talking. It wanted the hardcore gamers to discover those differences when the game releases rather than spill the beans to us. The Hori fighting controller being made specifically for the release of VF5 handles like a dream. It has a solid base, responsive joystick, and the six face buttons feel great. The only gripe we have is that the left and right bumper buttons are rather small and hard to reach quickly.
The slight improvements that we alluded to in the opening paragraph are more to do with bonus content and online play than the tweaks made to the balance. The 360 version will sport 75% more costumes to dress up your players with. To make it easier to collect all of these items, more money is given to you right off the bat in quest mode and it has been made slightly easier to obtain gold in the game. There will also be 60% more rival AI personas in quest mode. All of the personalities from the PS3 version will return, but now there will be better, more individualistic CPU AI."
Plus celebrate Sonic’s 30th anniversary with a trio of titles: Sonic Mania, Team Sonic Racing and Sonic Forces.
What is?
Witcher III, Slay the Spire, Virtua Fighter 5, and Sonic Mania are an excellent lineup of titles to add.
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
Great great game. Would need another playthrough (Gwent and horse racing) to get the platinum, plus I never bought/played the expansions.
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.
Although fighting games are entering a new Golden Age, there's a number of franchises that deserve to be brought back.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
Loved me some VF wish they would update the game i still remember my first Jeffery power bomb on VF 1.
you got the PS3 version beat for sure. No doubt about that. Great Job Sega and MS.
But, I'd rather play Tekken. Even if tekken comes to 360, you just cant beat the PS3 controller for fighting games.
@Thammer1: Wow, I agree with you. Something must be wrong.
I thought this was the twilight zone.
75% more costumes.
AI: There will also be 60% more rival AI personas in quest mode. All of the personalities from the PS3 version will return, but now there will be better, more individualistic CPU AI."
Good stuff, Some times the wait pays off.
360 doesn't have blu-ray? Dvd9 isn't enough to do a game like VF5.
MS must have paid them money.
</sarcasm>
Blu ray isnt needed for this type of game obviously. Its the Metal gears, FF13 and Killzone type games that require this storage thats why they are EXCLUSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
And this is the reason why people love and hate exclusives...
Love because they get to play the game first than the other people that own the other console... and hate because for the most part they always get a better version...
