Virtua Fighter 5

...then you'll hate this.

The Virtua Fighter series is renowned for being the deepest fighting game series in history. It set the standard when the first Virtua Fighter came out back in 1993 and without it, there wouldn't be any Tekken, Soul Calibur or any other 3D fighting game for that matter.

Virtua Fighter 5 is the best installment yet and is the deepest and best fighting game I have ever played. Period.

I see this has copped quite a bit of negative flak from the more casual gamers who like their fighting games to be shallow to the point where they can button bash their way to victory instead of sticking with a character and learning how to use them to devastating effect over time. These people are idiots and don't know what a real fighting game is. One guy only rented this for 10 minutes and sent it back! Way to prove my point so eloquently.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Tekken and Soul Calibur, but they are nothing compared to Virtua Fighter, the daddy of all 3D fighting games. So if you are a shallow button bashing moron then don't bother with this game, you are not worthy. Maybe try Dead or Alive 5 first to get you out of your nasty button bashing habbits, it's not quite as hardcore as Virtua Fighter, but along the same lines.

Around 1997 i had fun playing this game for Sega Saturn, even b4 the time i bought the first playstation, but now?! not at all, its one of the worst big name fighting games ever(for now) on ps3!!

Worth a rent for a while but becomes dull very quickly. Better off waiting for the new Street Fighter to come to the PS3. Game intro looks nice, but in game graphics are dated.

what a poor poor game for the ps3!

was looking forward to a classic game and wish i didn't waste my rental credit on this.

played for 10mins then it went back in the envelope and posted !!!

Not a bad game but way too easy. Completed the whole thing within a couple of hours.
