When I play it I carry a different mindset than I do with most fighters and rely more on instinct than anything else.ĭespite the simplicity of the game (that I do admit I love.) unlike fighting games like MVC3 it’s not a given win with each combo. I can’t wait to get back to Akira, Brad, and Vanessa, also I want to practice with Jean Kujo.

It was pretty nice and there were ALOT of changes. I love VF5 and got to sample VF5 Final Showdown at Final Round last week. Not to mention Brawl receives a lot of hate for being very accessible, but has hella depth when you break it down. If that was the case you’d see more people interested in KOFXIII than UMVC3 or ANY version of MVC3. That title has all the Virtua Fighter characters. But guess what? Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown is set to hit PSN and XBLA arcade. At least you know some combos going into Dead or Alive 5. Oh, for Virtua Fighter fans, Yousuke Hayashi says that Akira gameplay is mostly unchanged from VF5. Don’t be surprise if they announce a couple of other Virtua Fighter characters to join the roster. Yousuke Hayashi doesn’t go into details if he even means the other planned crossover characters are SEGA related at all, but we all know that DOA has a tag-teamed style gameplay. He says since they went through all this trouble of bringing Akira on board, that he won’t be the only character announced. Namco have also talked in interviews of their desires of doing a Virtua Fighter x Tekken title. Team Ninja isn’t the only big developer that have wanted Virtua Fighter cross-over. So this means that the team went out of their way to make this happen. According to the latest Famitsu interview with Team Ninja boss Yousuke Hayashi, he actually had to fight for SEGA to approve Akria as a guest character. It was announced a few days ago that Dead or Alive 5 would be adding Virtua Fighter‘s Akira Yuki to their roster.
