360 Virtua Fighter 5 has online play!
Yeah, you read that right. Despite all the cries that it would ruin game balance, and that Virtua Fighter just wouldn't work online, there it is. Sega has officially announced that Virtua Fighter 5 for the Xbox 360 will feature online versus multiplayer. Given that this was one of our personal pred...
Virtua Fighter 5 is prettier on the 360
The crew over at IGN received an "eyes on" preview of the Xbox 360 version of Virtua Fighter 5 and came away starry eyed impressed. SEGA was eager to show off the ported PS3 game and rightly so, because they went back into the code and polished everything for the 360 version. IGN says that VF5 on th...
SEGA: VF5 will be a summer release
It seems there's some confusion surrounding the release date of Virtua Fighter 5 according to Eurogamer. It seems that several online retailers, including GameStop, Amazon, and Play.com, are listing the game as a fall or even winter release. SEGA begs to differ and has confirmed with Eurogamer that...
Haze becomes a PlayStation 3 exclusive?
In a press conference today in France, it appears that Ubisoft announced Haze will be released exclusively on the PS3, initially at least. This suggests that Haze is most likely the exclusive they mentioned last week. It appears that it will be a timed exclusive, like Virtua Fighter 5, though not...
Dead or Alive 4 VS. Virtua Fighter 5: Fight!
Fighting games used to be king. Once upon a time, back in the 90s, arcades (remember those?) were full of fighting games of all kinds. You could fight with and against just about anything you pleased: dinosaurs, robots, time travelers, ninjas, werewolves, you name it. With so many games from which ...
A fistful of new Virtua Fighter 5 screens
Frankly, we're still miffed that SEGA refuses to add online play to its flagship fighting title, Virtua Fighter 5. Of course, that doesn't mean we won't ravenously devour every scrap of information about the game that comes our way. Today's latest on Virtua Fighter 5 comes to us from Gamertag Radio...
Virtua Fighter 5 Box Art
Sure, the game is already out for the PS3 and so people can have a pretty good idea about how the box is going to look for Virtua Fighter 5, but it's always nice to see it with the proper 360 cover dressing. The difference between the two is slight, at best. The image is the same on the top, bottom...
Resistance and Motorstorm topping charts in UK (not Europe)
After briefly, mistakenly and idiotically reducing the entirety of Europe, with all its many cultures, languages and shoes to just the UK in an article yesterday, we've taken steps to reinforce the pathways that connect our brains to our rapidly typing fingers. Said fingers insist that we now draw y...
HORI Pro Fighting Stick... helps keep thumbs blister free!
Personal gloating moment: after obtaining the rank of "Veteran" in Virtua Fighter 5's Quest Mode, my thumbs are killing me. But it was worth it. Still worth it, since every character I fight now tries to demote my rank. Anyway, we got an e-mail from a fan who bought the HORI Pro Fighting Stick in on...
Metareview + Our take: Virtua Fighter 5
Well, we're going to go ahead and dip ourselves into the "review" world here. For the first PS3Fanboy metareview/review, we're going to go over Sega's Virtua Fighter 5. I was able to pry myself away from it long enough to write this. First off, we've compiled a few key sites and the copy of EGM sitt...
