VF 5 to be shown tomorrow at AM Show

Is it just me or does it automatically forword you to the FT page?

 

good or bad i still want to play this. they said Virtua quest fell short. but i liked that game since it told you the fighters backgrounds. and the music was nice.

 

I wonder if they are going to add any new characters in VF5 along with new modes.

 

that would be cool. since and i hope i'm wrong. this is the last one. that should go all out make quest mode more a story and when you beat it you'll know way more about the characters.

 

VF never gave a shit about characters' background and I hope it stays that way. Quest mode more a story? Fuck that. Give me a solid, 1on1 fighting game.

 

no to be pessimistic, but i was expecting a little more for 5 years of technology since the original.

which also has some nice pics in it.

 

Better footage at 1up:

Downloading the video now, but in the mean time a better picture of Akira's profile:



Looks pretty darn impressive to me, especially if these sorts of details carry over to the rest of the game in real-time.

Better quality video to dl.

 

man, it sorta bugs that the girls look so cartoony now
jacky looks like billy idol
and leifei has an eyebrow problem

 

Just saw the video. Guys, download the 1up version, it's way better than the 3G2 file.

I think overall it looks great. The detail, the lighting...notice the onlookers? They look fully formed in VF5. The one thing about the clip that bothers me is how familiar everything looked. The character designs, the stages...doesn't it just give you a sense of deja vu, as in, we've seen all this before albeit in lesser detail? I was wowed by Vanessa's new look (yes it really does compliment her), but honestly quite bored by everybody else's. Kage still has his blue outfit, Akira in his gi, Aoi in her pink-blue kimono, Wolf in his wrestling outfit, Jeffry in his khakis...you guys get the point. Yea, I know, AM2 usually makes the 2P costume different, but still. And the stages...it just has this sense of same old, same old.

To someone who doesn't play VF much, this clip will be impressive because, for example, the image of fighting against the backdrop of the Great Wall of China will feel awesome. But to some of the fans who have played that stage to death in VF3 and seen three versions of in VF4...it's just not that exciting any more.

That said, I'll be the first in line to play this baby come March 2006.

P.S. Like the Mexican wrestler, unimpressed with the cute, short, young girl. I just hope the two of them bring something unique to the table in terms of gameplay.

 

Is it just me or does Lau look like his been having kimo for that disease he's supposed to have. Where did all his hair go?

 

I'm digging both new characters. I can't wait to see how they fight. I'm all over that Rey Mysterio looking guy.

Ice-9 - those would be my only critiques as well, mainly the backgrounds though, not the familiar outfits. While it would be nice to have every character get a whole new makeover like they did Van, VF has always maintained the same boring looking 1p outfits so it's kind of expected.
