No on-line options. Good 2-player game if someone is there with you.
User Rating: 8.1 | Virtua Fighter 5 PS3
I was not expecting to see a loading screen from the start-up for a good 5 minutes....but I guess thats the price I pay for expensive games. This is a great looking game and resembles Virtua Fighter Evolution....with the sounds and motions...I was expecting something a little more "umph" if you will. I was hoping for a couple downloadable something, or on-line options....OR AT LEAST ONLINE chat? I was hoping for a run on XBOX LIVE by this time...but no go. If you are buying this game and have a PS3....looking for multi-player online/online scoreboards....you will be disapointed. NOW about the game.....Visuals are great....Sounds are what you would expect from a Virtua Fighter game. Frame-rate never falls....replay value for a $60 game is hard to say...pending on how many people come over to play it. If the XBox 360 version can boost this game for a few on-line opions, this will be the premier fighting game on the 360. The lack of rumble-feedback that I was used to on the PS2 in Virtua Fighter is missed dearly. I have not nocticed or read if the motion movement of the controller is used at all. If you have someone that plays fighting games around you and will get more multi-player replay...this is one of the main reasons to own it. Other than that, I feel it is kind of flat and NON-NEXTGENERATION due to non-online anything.
