Product Description
Virtua Fighter 5 will elevate the arcade fighting genre to all new heights as the game promises to take true advantage of the capabilities of the next generation hardware. Virtua Fighter 5 raises the bar for console fighting games including all the features fans know and love plus enhanced gameplay mechanics, additional characters and new fighting styles, as well as newly redesigned 3D environments.
Virtua Fighter 5 will deliver fast-paced, adrenaline-pumping action as players head into battle, taking on a host of popular characters. The game will introduce two new dynamic characters, El Blaze and Eileen, complete with new fighting techniques and from completely different backgrounds. Play as one of the 17 default characters in the game or customize a character. Players will be able to modify their characters by selecting from four base costumes and then decorate them by attaching a wide range of unlockable and earnable items. Players will not only achieve victory by defeating highly-skilled opponents, but also by competing for prizes and earning in-game money allowing them to buy many items at an in-game shop. Further building upon the depth of the series, players will now be able to move around their opponent using an “Offensive Move” technique, adding a new strategic element to their battles.
- Two New Characters, El Blaze and Eileen, round out the cast of 17 dynamic characters. El Blaze is a Mexican wrestling champion that uses the Lucha Libre fighting style, and Eileen, originally from China, uses “Kou-Ken” a Monkey Kung Fu style which she learned from her grandfather.
- Reinvented Quest Mode where players can compete in various arcades and win prize money to fully customize each character. The Quest Mode will also allow players to choose their opponents allowing for more strategic and flexible gameplay. Would you rather fight in an easy competition to win items to customize your character or compete against the highest ranked fighter to improve your dan-level? The choice is yours.
- Commentary Function allows players to turn on a play-by-play sports commentary audio creating an action-packed competitive atmosphere.
- In-depth DOJO Mode where players can learn and practice thousands of moves and techniques to succeed. The DOJO Mode allows players to practice against any of the characters they choose, set their skill level, specify their actions and reactions and activate in depth display settings showing button inputs and move frame counts in real time.

Addictive but worth it!

Virtua Fighter 5 is addictive.
Hailing from a Sega's AM2 department and following a huge franchise, this game delivers a great and rewarding experience.
The more you put into this puppy the more you get out of it.
From the standard Arcade mode, online play, through to a Quest mode that has you playing against data taken from arcade machines used in tournaments overseas, this game puts you to your limits!
The ability to make your characters your own is encouraged through the use of unlockable items, clothing and even avatars to put by your name. This always pushes you further to unlock something new, to acquire something that another online opponent has or just to have something cooler than your friend has equipped!
The moves list is huge and mastering a character is easy to begin with but is hard to complete. Though if you're dedicated enough, you will be the envy of friends pulling off amazing moves and combos.
I would suggest this game to avid fighting fans or those that are looking for a fighting game with some depth.
While the rewards are great, it's a matter of... the more you put in, the more you get out!
 | Awesome!

Get ready for the best fighter of the year, Virtua Fighter 5. Compare to all other 3D fighters, VF is the deepest of them all, this is a game where skilled and strategy is required to win a match, not button mashing. Even though it's not a big improvement from VF4: Evolution in term of gameplay, the addition of 2 new characters, new customizations, extra costumes and an overhaul in graphics certainly make this game the best game of the series. The unique cast of characters will satisfied anyone's taste and preference, each characters with their own unique fighting style, from Muay Thai, Jeet Kune Do, Wrestling to Drunken Boxing and Kouken (Monkey Fist). The Xbox360 version also include an online mode, which is a great addition in my opinion. Despite the lag, you can now have fun facing off against other players online. Overall, if you're a fan of fighters, this is a must have game for your Xbox360.
