Virtua Fighter 5 - Gen. Disscussion - Item Pack DLC Out Now 300pts

Anyone want to buy my PS3 copy? I was going to wait for the 360 version, but then all the previews were saying no online, and I didn't have anything to play on my ps3. Oh well, that's what I get for trying to play a game on my blu-ray player.
 
MarkMan how are the hori products?

I was gonna pre-order the arcade stick yesterday but they wanted $60 for it, and the website added a $5 handling cost even with the free shipping code. Sucked.

I think that's a different stick. The one on the GS site is described as being a limited edition VF5-branded stick.

it looks like the exact design as the DoA4 stick and the Fighting Stick 3 for the PS3. If it's not changed at all, then it'll get the job done. It's a little light, but controls very well.
 
Question, how would a patch add the following:

Add a option in the main menu

Create a matchmaking system on said menu

Optimize the gameplay to reduce/eliminate lag?

My guess is that they are going to rerelease the game with version c and online for of course the same $60 pricce point, its time for "Show me the money!!!!!"

or pull a VF4:Evolution


and a lot can be added with a patch. See: the ninja gaiden hurricane packs. they basically copy over the whole game.
 
The stick is out now...

Exactly the same as the DOA4 stick(insides too).... Not my pic, if anyone asks.

This stick has actually been planned since around the time the DOA4 stick was released. I'm glad they didn't totally scrap it! lol...
 
Wrong thread, RR?

Anyway, is the Hori VF EX stick $49.99 or $59.99? J&R's says $59.99 online, but if it's $49.99 @ GameStop or something, I'll just pick it up elsewhere.

I still have VF5 360 on my to-get list. If the online is laggy, then maybe I'll just play it offline awhile to see what achievements I can unlock then get rid of it.
 
[quote name='Brian9824']Yeah VF5 w/ lag doesnt make me happy. Will be taking a skeptical approach to this[/QUOTE]


VF5 without lag means you're not playing online ;)

I guess I'll stick with my DOA4 stick then.
 
Virtua Fighter 5 demo on the Japanese XBL Marketplace in a few hours...

4 characters playble... El Blaze, Eileen, Sarah, Akira

2 modes, arcade and vs mode...
 
I just played the demo with my EX2 Stick and I fn enjoyed it. I got bummed when the demo ended. BTW this is the same demo at PS3 demo stations in stores. I fn want this game now.
 
Was playing the demo. To bad Lei Fei isn't available, but Akira is my second favorite.

BTW, is the annoying commentary in the PS3 version? I feel like I'm playing Madden.
 
Tried the demo, I'm not as bad at fighting games as I thought I was. That stick is nice, but it's overpriced for not even being wireless.
 
VF5 for the 360 is almost here so we need to bump. If anyone wants to add me as a friend please be my guest, I'll looking for some competition.
 
I found this at Sears yesterday.......this week it has definitely been Sears FTW.

I'm not too knowledgeable on fighters but it reminded me a lot of DOA4. This is the second time I've played a Virtua Fighter game (apart from the original) and it was pretty good so far. Graphics look nice too.
 
[quote name='trublustang03']Is the game coming out tomorrow or the 30th/31st?[/quote]

Yeah, I think 30th is the shipping date and it should be in stores on the 31st. However I've heard rumors of TRU and now apparently Sears breaking that street date. However I con't confirm these.

I came back from TRU (dadeland for all you miami people) and no go... might as well wait for official release.
 
oh man, guess I will have to wait, I have Heavenly Sword that I got during the B2G1 free at TRU and I want to trade it for VF5, guess I'll go play the demo some more.
 
Well Wednesday is coming up quick. Who else is getting VF5? I've got the Arcade Stick coming in the mail right now from Amazon, came to a buck cheaper then EBgames.com and I just got a new time card for my Live subscription.

I'm going to see what's up at Toys R Us and see if they got the game in yet, if not I'm going to go over to one of the EB's on Wednesday and hope they have the game in stock.

Hopefully the online won't be too glitchy and laggy, I really want to see how well I do against REAL people rather then the computer.
 
[quote name='Moon Jump'] Who else is getting VF5? quote]

I pre-ordered it yesterday in full. Can't wait. Sadly, in Canada the cheapest way to get it would be to pay $95.
 
I read an EGM article that says they had no problems with the online battles and it ran smooth. But that doesn't mean it will be the same for anyone else.

Somebody else in Australia (were the game is already out) posted a video of two online matches. While he played like a scrub using Akira (all he did was low jab and kick a guy to win) the game looked like it played without any hiccups.

I just know my online connection will give me problems. Hopefully it won't be too bad when I'm playing people that are on the east cost.
 
Just went to a Gamestop and they had a few Hori Arcade sticks so I picked up the one with the VF5 stickers. Kinda disapointed the didn't have a real VF5 stick. Now I'm debating wether to put on a couple stickers to make it looks cheesy or leave it blank and plain looking.

It's funny, When I first asked the GS employee if he had any Arcade Sticks he said, "Yeah hold on, I think we got a few of those in the back." A few seconds latter he brings out something that looks like this:

It was cool in the end, since they had what I was looking for, but when he brought that out I wanted to laugh.

gahahahhaha, I would have laughed too...
 
[quote name='Rodimus Donut']If anyone else got this today I'm up for some matches. I'll be play all day and all night long.[/QUOTE]

I played a ranked match against you today. You played Lei-Fei and I had Akira. It was such a fun match, my grab missed and yours connected which is what determined your victory. I'd like to play agaist you some more, I need my revenge lol. I'll send you a FR, please accept. Good game.

No Problem, I remember that match, it was pretty close. I'm alwasy looking for a good match. If you want to challange me to an un-ranked match so we can practice.

GG
 
My Wal-Mart didn't get it yet so I can't play yet, but if anyone wants to add me when I get the game over the next week send me a request: Jagr69.

If anyones wondering why I'm waiting It's because I got a $10 off ticket to use and rather save money (hello CAG!) and wait till Wal-Mart gets it.
 
GG rodimus... I am horrible... I stil don't know if I like brad or not.

in quest mode I had a chuckle when I faced off a character named "Seaman" and his comment was "Have you seen any sailors?"... oh AM2.
 
Does everyone know that VF5 is $40 for a week at CC from Sunday (11/4) ?

Well you do now.

EDIT - THis came from the deals forums, so credit to the OP of that thread.

Too bad quotes & emblems don't carry over to XBL. I have my "Ramen Emblem" and me like it. I had my fill of Vs. Online. Played about 100 matches *phew* It's alot of fun since the game is so well balanced there isn't any cheap stuff going on. Think I'll start playing through Quest mode today, customizing and all that good stuff.

I wish the training mode was as in depth as VF4 was.
 
I got this last night, been practicing and beat arcade mode once. I am not really that good, but man I had fun. Lau and Akira kept beating the crap out of my Jacky, I need to practice more.
 
the training in VF4 was a nightmare... in a good way.

I do like the rebalancing. My brad is definitely better than it was in VF4 since he seems more well rounded now. Still not happy with my skill level though.
