Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

[CarteBlanche]

For XBL, to my understanding it should drop early in the morning in NA, so probably around noon in Europe.

Game is up on psn now. Btw no one uses Akira's knee.

Played some VF5 with Punishing Soul. Liking Eileen. She seems like a character who needs to stay on the offensive all the time. Lots of stance cancels, and uh... interrupts apparently. Not sure why they're called that, though. 236P, 236K, and 214P don't feel like interrupts at all.

I took a look at Akira, they made him easier in VF5. Though, he's still really hard thanks to some new grabs that only work on counter hit and require some excellent timing to catch them.

Jean is... Strange. Charge hit string enders which allow the string to continue?

How execution-heavy is Akira to play? I always wanted to play as him but things like that JF knee scared me away.

I mean he looks really cool.

But, I think a Patroklos looks cool too. I don't go near him, though.

He is the alpha Pat of the game really. so if your good at busting out those JF you should be ok. He is really really good just man the work to use him is truly work.
