The Virtua Fighter 5 Thread

So has anyone been playing? I just got it today and its as awesome as I thought it would be, pretty damn awesome :thumbs:

I must say the first few arcades in Quest mode are retardingly easy, 28 fucking win streak before I quit :shakefist .

I realized if I played Eileen instead of Lion at Evo 2k7 this year I would have gotten a little farther, Lion was pure win in VF4, he is a little better now but not so much my style anymore, I still use him though.

Yeah I've got the game for my 360 Too, WAS going to buy a PS3 to play that and a Few others but it seems like the 360 has it all really so I just waited.

Still a fan of VF2 though, I really need an Arcade Stick for it, Might look into getting the Controller Port things that let you plug in a Mouse, Keyboard, PS2 Controller and USB Controllers, because I can't really play well with the 360 Controller, not the best for Fighting games

I've heard theres USB Saturn Controllers, If there is I'll definately grab it, So far for me its the best Controller to use for Fighting Games.

I took a stab at it on Halloween when a friend brought it over. I had a good time with it. I haven't played VF in ages but this one was enjoyable. Especially the part where I was kicking ass! :buttrock: woot!

Virtual Fighter has never been a favorite of mine, and VF 5 is no exception. I have the game on PS3 and even though my brother loves it, I cant get into it. The graphics are great, no doubt. But, the controls and even the fighting itself doesnt seem right. They dont feel like they hit each other. The moves are pretty lackluster from what I have seen, and most of the characters dont seem worth playing. Like the main character, he seems like a Ryu rip-off. The fighting game for me is Tekken. Ive been a huge fan of that since Tekken 3 and Tekken 5 was mindblowing. I dont know, I guess im just not a fan.

You are the first girl I've ever heard of playing VF...I am amazed :O_O:
Seriously though I've seen plenty of Fighting Game girls but not a single one that has played VF.

IMO There really are very VERY few people to play with online at starting skill levels, I mean even a few of the guys with like 1 win and 8 losses can be godly (played a match like that, godly Akira player with all the special items on him). Sega really needs to make online play a bit better. I still love the Kyu and Dan system.
