Why does language matter in a fighting game anyway lol?

the training and quest modes are pretty text heavy, and in vf that text is actually worthwhile.

Waiting for the 360 version here.

It will use the Hori stick that came out with DOA4, right?

since its a fighting game why cant the game cost at most 49.99?

$49.99 doesn't get you that next-gen™ awesomeness

Has it been confirmed whether or not the 360 version will have the online play that for some inexplicable reason is not on the PS3? If this is so....superior version i will get.

Today, Sega announced the game (Virtua Fighter 5) has gone gold, and will arrive on the PS3 as planned, months before the Xbox 360 edition. It is rated T for Teen and will retail for $59.99.

Finally, I need this asap.

It won't. If it somehow does, that thread is gonna be so ****ing legendary. But I believe online is being omitted because of latency issues. It wouldn't be Virtua Fighter with the lag

It's been explained ad nauseum. Good luck on waiting for that feature.

Why anyone owning a PS3 would wait 4-6 months for the X360 version, which has been confirmed to be the same version "B" but with a few new modes and achievements...is beyond me unless you hate Sony. But then why would you have a PS3 in the first place?

john tv is pretty angry with Sony and the PS3 atm. But, you can't really blame people.

If you actually own a PS3, though, and were a fan of VF... waiting is retarded. But that's just me.

Still no online mode, right? And no acheivements.... Hm.

Guess I'm waiting for the 360 version. They might patch it for online play! I don't even think you CAN patch games on the PS3, can you? :(

Arcade stick is why I ask and achievements. If I can't use the arcade stick, I'm moving my preorder.

I have the DoA4 X360 stick so I can see where you're coming from if spending is a concern and you don't want to buy another stick for the PS3.

But then again if you get the X360 version and plan to actually play against PEOPLE you'll have to buy a 2nd stick anyways since the d-pad on the X360 pad is NOT going to cut it for VF5. :\

At least the DS d-pad works great for VF5, so you can get 1 stick, 2 sticks, or no sticks. Or you can use your PS2 sticks :) I'm grabbing one of the official VF PS3 sticks and then plugging in my PS2 RAP2 for the 2nd player personally.

I already have 1 arcade stick, I'm not going to buy another stick for the sake of one game know the only opponent will be the CPU. Most of my friends have the stick for DOA4 when we get together. I'm the only one with a PS3.

I thought this was going to be a joke about Sonic the Hedgehog being PS3's ONLY software release in the US for January.

Thank goodness for NBA 2K7 being fun (hooray for playing a whole season in less than three weeks).

Yeah I understand I just thought you meant that there was no arcade stick for the PS3

Has no PEINS
I thought this was going to be about MotorStorm but I will accept VF5 as a must-have title as well. One month to go!

Why would it be cheaper since it is a fighting game?

how about since they have probably already recouped most of if not all their cost in arcade at this point ;)

and :lol at bebpo.. DS d-pad is a joke... Sega needs to do another Saturn controller release for the next gen consoles

If I had a PS3, I might get this one pending a price drop.

As it is, I'll get the 360 version pending a price drop.

I can't wait. The fact that I should be able to reuse my PS1 original Tekken sticks (best ones ever made) will save me a lot of money and space.
