Best Fighting Game Except Soul Calibur

I felt VF overrelied on option selects, but it's beatable at least. The overreliance caused some folks to prefer VF4 to VF5, where the option selects were used in a much narrower set of circumstances.

Virtua Fighter 5 without question. That game is all kinds of awesome and it's coolness is only second to its kickassness in my opinion. Except Dural she is pure BS on all levels of gaming lol. I used to main Kage, however I have switched over to Goh Hinogami.

The thing about VF, as good as the game is, is that it has virtually no community in North America. Like, I recall the NEC VF5 tourney signup sheet had seven people signed up when I left, as opposed to the 76 that signed up for Tekken, and I don't know how many of them were serious/experienced players. If you want to learn it on your own, I say go ahead, it's a good, albeit hard game to learn, (I tried learning it myself for a while) but if you want people to actually play against, best go for something else.

Virtua Fighter is also hard to get into because the atmosphere and characters suck. It's just a bunch of random, generic characters fighting in random places.

In regards to VF.
Trust me I have tried watching the game just for the entertainment value, and got nothing.
Do they use motion capture for that game or not? The hits lack impact, and the character models are odd to me.

Was VF5 release for the PS3? Otherwise, I would own it by now.

I watched some VF5 FS vids and they're not boring at all to me.

Seriously I look forward to playing this game once SEGA decides to release Final Showdown the latest version on consoles.
