Virtua Fighter 4 arcade review

97%!!!!!! Sounds good to me. Looks like Tekken has some stiff competition

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but the PS2 version is supposed to be the same so I think it belongs in here.
Correct me if I\'m wrong :D

The link isn\'t working for me. :(

97%, thats good stuff! :)

I can\'t remember where I read it but I remember reading somewhere else had also done a review and they thought the game was great.

I can see some Tekken Vs Virtual Fighter threads coming in the future when these two games are released for PS2.

I never liked the Virtua Fighter series, but maybe this one will change my mind...

The first one in my opinion wasn\'t great. The second one I thought was amazing, really improved on what the first one did. The third one though in my opinion was poor, one new character introduced, I also completed the arcade game on my first go.

Altered_Beast would disagree with me though.

You know me too well RichGUK, while I love VF2 and still go back and play it to this day about every week or so, I can\'t get enough of VF3tb\'s extreme deepness.

All I know is, now that it isn\'t on a Sega system, this game is gonna sell huge, Japan and elsewhere.

From what I heard, VF4 was way unbalanced.  Lei\'s moves took off way too much, and they had priority over everything.  It was easy to win by just pressing one button with him.  This was from the beta version, so hopefully they will get that problem fixed.

Snap out of it Iron!

Anyone who can be beat with just one button does not deserve to play VF4.  The reviewer or person you heard this from has probably never played the VFs in depth before. Didn\'t know jack and so some punk kid or over-zealous hardcore VFer layed it on him with one button.

Kind of like how I do to my friends when we play SF3:3 and I am Ken :) It makes the game more fun to know you can beat people without trying :)

hahahaha!

Snap out of it?  I\'m looking forward to VF4.  I was only telling you what I heard from people who are VF fanatics and have actually played VF4.  Lei is too overpowering.  Unless you have played the beta version of VF4, you cannot argue with this.  Again, I hope they tone him down before the game is released.

And yeah, Ken is the man. :)  I like Eurin the best in SF3(I don\'t know how to spell or pronounce Eurin, so I just call him Urine because I don\'t know how to pronounce his name :))  Urine is a beast in SF3.

Yeah even though I was negative about VF1 and VF3, VF2 still has a lot of respect from me so I hope VF4 turns out great.

Only time will tell.
