Pros: Best fighter Cons: The 360 controller "No online lag here (DSL). great fun on or offline. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Great Online experience, Balanced Characters, Deep fighting system Cons: Easy Ai, Bad voicework, Bland art direction The Bottom Line: A solid buy for fighters. Well balanced characters, great online play. from Shopping.com If your looking to get this game for some quick achievements, don't. This game is exceedingly hard in arcade mode if you have the dificulty set to normal. from Amazon.com While some of them resemble Roman gladiator bloodsports more than anything else, the fundamental concept is really just a high-speed game of chess (attack, defend, counter, checkmate). And while true fighting games are largely seen as button mashers or headache-inducing memorization exercises (try Star Wars: Masters of Terra Kasai some time if you want some really long and pointless combos), this game is a perfect example of a game that is NOT about mashing buttons OR about ridiculous combos (although some them are tricky to be sure). Some people have been following this series with devotion ever since the first polygon fighter even was released (Virtua Fighter) and have watched the series grow in graphical prowess and move complexity (2 got a lot of devotion while not many loved 3). Personally I didn't really see the light until I played Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution on the PS2. from Amazon.com Initially, i've never been too wild about the Virtua Fighter series. They were games that were slow and choppy to me, and i was more partial to the Tekken series. from Amazon.com I recently just got this game and seeing some reviews online thought this would be a good fast-paced fighting game I love like DOA 4. But sadly it just seemed to me to be to reminiscent of the game Tekken and while I like that game as well I was expecting more from VF5, don't get me wrong the video animation and effects are incredible but when you use some of the characters in the fighting they just seemed to be to sluggish for my liking. True the punches and kicks are quick and precise but blocking was pathetic sometimes and trying to grab your opponent just seemed to take to much time, also I thought you would be able to counter an attack like DOA4 but if you're able to good for you I myself haven't been able to. from Amazon.com Virtua fighter 5 has a lot to offer anyone who is looking for a game with a deep fighting system, and has the time and attention span to put in the practice required to become efficient with the moves, and develop a strategy for any given character in the game. I haven't played the playstation 3 version,(v.b) but the Xbox version is a pretty much perfect translation of the version c arcade machine in terms of visuals and gameplay. from Amazon.com If you're a fan of duke-em-out in your face martial arts there's nothing better than VF5. Same great action as previous generations, characters are beefier, there are more of them as well though I haven't gotten to them yet. from Amazon.com Character item customization... RUMBLE support. Online play and graphics and Version C make this a must buy for VF and Sega Arcade fans. Excellent fighting game, and in high definition and 5.1 sound! from Amazon.com I like fighting games, and I have been enjoying Virtua Fighter for some time now. I bought this when it came out on the ps3 (this and resistance were my main games "back in the day") it looked amazing, was very fluid, and I had a blast playing it. from Amazon.com
