Product Description

Virtua Fighter 5 offers worldwide fighting stages in which as many as 17 contestants vie, including two new characters, El Blaze, a Mexican wrestler who dominates with his Lucha Libre fighting style, and Eileen, a Chinese Monkey style kung-fu champion. SEGA also has implemented a new "offensive move" enabling players to take down opponents from different angles; these moves are believed to set VF5 apart from past VF games. Like in Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution, players can customize their characters. They can pick from four base costumes in the beginning, and then choose from a wide spectrum of unlockable accessories items as they progress. By winning more tournaments, players not only earn costumes and accessories, they receive prizes and in-game money for browsing in the in-game shop. Step into the ring and prove you're the best!

Reviewed on 2008-07-16 I give this game an 8/10 This game is fun for anyone who can move their fingers a lot faster than mine. I couldn't get used to the ontrols too much either. and the special moves are hard to pull off when you have to move your character at Sonic speed. I wouldn't buy this game again, good thing I traded this in along with Outrun 2 and Outrun 2006.

Reviewed on 2008-07-11 not worth the money I paid full price for this game which is unfortunate because I got bored of it very quickly. It's easy to get started in the game but difficult to master moves. The commentary and music is cheesy but it's fun to play now and then if you need to get out some aggression or for your video fighting fix. There are some fun extras such as purchasing clothing and accessories but there's not enough to the game to justify paying full price. Buy it only if you can get it cheap.

Reviewed on 2008-06-16 Best fighter out! Good-Graphics are great/environments are highly detailed/can be challenging w.o being frustrating/LOADS of customization possibilities/DEEP fighting system/optional in-fight commentary makes it seem like your watching a real fight/Online play/FUN!!! Bad-some advanced moves might be hard to pull off This game ROCKS!!. If you like fighting games but you dont like the AI being able to predict games then this one is for you. The AI had been revamped to perform like a human player instead of a cpu, and man does it replicate a human accurately. The AI will do things such as block out of nowhere and use repeated moves if its working. Even on the harder levels the AI still performs more like a human and less like a cpu that makes you pay for every punch you throw(DOA4. I have had this game for about 4months now and I have yet to get tired or frustrated with it.

Reviewed on 2008-04-24 Virtua 5 best yet 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. Environments are detailed and pleasing. I'm sure it's fun battling online just like it is at the arcade, with complete strangers joining the fray in attempt to knock the king off the hill, but I haven't pursued the online gaming thang yet. Enjoy!!
