oh lame, i read on some site that it had playable online. Welp I already know what the singleplayer is like and it didn't convince me to buy it unless it had online, which the PS3 didn't.

no it has online... but they don't let you click on it in the demo, it's a disabled option.

ya thats what I meant

I know the 360 has online. I'll probably go rent it when it comes out.

But I the site that posted that a demo of it came out stated that the demo let you play online. Which is false

VF5 was already an old game when it came out for PS3.

well if thats the case then they'll probably release one. like with splintercell... first the multiplayer online demo for double agent came out. and then like 2 months later the single player demo was released. i'll keep a eye out for ya.

it came out and is getting good reviews...better than the PS3 version. Apparently it looks a bit better, has more moves, and online.

The reviews I've read say the online is pretty basic but it is lag-free. Which is good. Tho, I rarely had lag playing online in DOA4.

Anyone got it? Another game I wanna buy amonst sooo many that are coming out ...grr.

Just got it.* Can't put it down.* I'm so glad 360 has an awesome fighter available.* It's deffinately the first to take advantage of HD graphics.

Dawg! Part of the reason why Dead or Alive 4 wasn't that great online was because of the LAG!!

Experienced it first hand. Many of times when I tried to review it. NOT one of the best fighting games to go online for the 360.

I just have to wait, and see how Virtua Fighter 5 plays online for the 360. It'll lose a little visual detail from the PS3, but it "should" make up for that with online play. Again, just have to wait, and see.

actually, according to the reviews...it looks better than the PS3 version. It is based off of version C of the arcade and PS3 is version B. No clue what that means but apparently it suppose to look better and have more moves.

Guess I'll have to pass on getting this game...too many good looking games are coming out in November. Crysis, CoD4, Assassin's Creed, Mass Effect, Kane and Lynch, etc.

Which review says that this game looks better than the PS3 version?

I've seen this game PLAYED! It has NOTHING on the PS3 version. Unless some M$ is saying some bull$hit like that, I don't believe that crap.

Can you provide a link to this information?

bassturd · 11-03-2007, 11:33 PM

various reviews I've read

heres a snippet from the IGN review.

"Virtua Fighter 5 comes to 360 with a variety of updates from the PS3 version. Already a fine-looking game on PS3, VF5 looks even better on 360. On Microsoft's monster machine, you get clean lines, excellent lighting, and some great environmental effects (such as mist rolling through the arena). VF5 Online offers the Arcade Version C edition, an update from the Version B used on PS3."

Gamespot review also mentions it but says the small details are "too much to go into for this review". Whatever that means....

Gamespot has always seemed a little Xbox favoring to me tho. Dunno bout IGN. But then agian, I've started favoring the Xbox over the PS3 as well...guess that is what happens when you see one system is actually better than the other...for now anyway. Well not that the system itself is better but that the quality/quanity of games is.

Shin_Jinlaw · 11-03-2007, 11:44 PM

Dawg! I don't trust what IGN has to say on ANYTHING that has to deal with ports, and such. If you look at their reviews, you see that some of them catered to M$. Virtua Fighter 5 for the 360 does not look better than the PS3 version.

Don't read alot of Gamespot reviews. Don't know alot about them, but I've heard that they aren't good at all when it comes to video game reviews.

And the ONLY reason why it's an arcade port is because the arcade version had online. Thats what the 360 has gained. Whoop-dee-do!!

bassturd · 11-04-2007, 12:44 AM

well personally the only reason I didn't buy VF5 for the PS3 is because it lacked online. Nothing more to it.

Shin_Jinlaw · 11-04-2007, 01:00 AM

Your call man. And I'll admit that it was a jack move for VF5 for the PS3 not having online, but I think you should give a second chance. That game is still a great have for your PS3 library.

Not enough to make me buy a PS3, though.
