      The font from the message " New Era New energy" looks similar to the one used for the vf5us first trailer... But of course It will be Jsr, phantasy star, or crazi taxy, may be some informations about their supergame project but it won't be VF6... As usual...

      Phantasy Star Online was fantastic back on the Dreamcast but other than VF what I would most like is the return of Virtua Tennis. Tennis seems to have been booming in recent years yet tennis games have dried up for some reason. A game like Crazy Taxi doesn't make sense for a big announcement.

      Maybe SEGA will announce multiple titles. Like the presentation SEGA did back in 2005, when they demonstrate VF5 for the first time.

      I love it how, even after everything, we still thought there was a chance....

      Still, that Shinobi game looks cool.

      The "and more" is how they get you hooked at the hopium. You need to cut it immediately. Cold turkey. Go hopeless.

      Razinoff - I can't! My Twitch channel has infnite amount of hopπium. Everytime I lose hope, I regain it back from hosting/streaming/playing VF...for better or for worse (y).

      Back to looking at the calendar for specific day(s) to look out for...

      • December 13th to end of the month...at least give us an official 30th anniversary logo! Though I am quite proud with the unofficial one.
      • February 10th - Special Cup...with the game title of "No VF No Life" given to participants...SEGA can't be that cruel? (don't answer that question)

      I feel SEGA is studing new ways to make us suffer.

      They got us again guys... besides Golden Axe, these are nothing but arcade games. Don't get me wrong they look appealing but c'mon Sega! This is the 2nd or 3rd time Harada asked about VF and still nothing??

      What the hell is it going to take for your to get it?? WE WANT VF6!!! At least do what SNK did with City of the Wolves and say it's in development. To top it off Aoki in an interview stated "we're not done with VF5US" Then how about some giving us somethin on that? I really wish at times like this the fans/champs of the game in Japan would ask the questions too. This shit is getting out of hand yo...

      Maybe we should start a crowd founding and give the money to Sega? :)

      To drive a company you need some of responsibility. If a stuff of people work on a game they expect money.

      Sega is a private company that is obligated to pay money their employees.

      No money, no work. No work, no game.

      Another thing is the players count. What everyone can easily do is to introduce the VF to your friends. If the VF player count grow, money will come.
      Of course, not everybody will play, but if one of 10 people that see the game will play. it's great progress.
      Alternatively, we can cheat (if we have such affordance) and buy 10 copies of VF or 100 or even 1000.
      Sega will have money and see people are interested. But it's wrong direction. Because tournaments would have a few people, same for online, etc.
      And We need more people, and best way to do it is to show your homies VF.

      Success (sort of :]) story at the end. I shown VF only to one guy, and he keeps playing.

      So go and show VF to anybody :)

      "Virtua Fighter doesn’t use so many tricks, special moves like in Street Fighter, it’s very realistic,” Utsumi said. “How can we make it more dramatic? It’s something we’re working on."

      ... it just means they have no people left there that actually likes VF for being VF and not "dramatic in the way street fighter is with many tricks"... sigh.

      Every time someone here says something along these lines imma post this interview https://www.gamerbraves.com/seiji-aoki-says-its-essential-future-virtua-fighter-games-have-rollback/

      Breaking News: A new VF won't literally be VF4 3 (not 2 because that was 5 Vanilla). It will be different.
