Multiplat Virtua Fighter 5 Showdown

[JR#8]

I know not many people here are going to be interested in VF5 but hopefully there is at least one or two people here who are going to get this baby when it comes out on June 5th.

Personally I can't wait as now there will be people playing online.

Check out this awesome fight which happened at the pre launch party on the weekend.

I managed to pick up the new Hori Arcade stick for PS3. Much HYPE!

I'll be double dipping on this baby. (PS3 & 360)

I'll no doubt get it when it dips below $30 somewhere. Great series, best of the genre

Good news for you, Launch price is around $18.

Bloody sweet. So it's obviously a XBLA/PSN title? How does it differ from VF5 which I have a physical copy of?

I purchased VF 5 when it originally came out, purchased the Games on Demand version last year after getting the fighting game bug back after playing Mortal Kombat (long story short, after a few years i lost the game disc!). I still have not finished Quest mode.

I'd rather VF 6, than a compact version of VF 5 getting a run on XBLA.

Downloading ATM for free ps+ ftw

Got it through PS+ as well, looks decent enough but feels incredibly dated compared to well other fighting games will wait until i'm actually decent to pass final judgement but right now if i paid full retail for it i'd be a bit pissed

Been playing online a fair amount. The net code is very good...I've had the occasional laggy match but nothing game breaking.

Game mechanics are very solid, one of the best fighters out.

I want to kick somebody ass online!
