Virtua Fighter 5 tournament scheduled for AOU 2007
You can never have enough Virtua Fighter, as we've been reminded while playing the sublime PS3 version of VF5 over the past fortnight. It's a game that successfully caters for every type of player, from wide-eyed novices to sharp-eyed experts -- and those groups could well clash north of Tokyo ...
Virtua Fighter 5 -- #1 game in Japan... for now!
If you check out the latest Japanese video game rankings (ignoring all the pictures of the cute Asian women), you may notice that a certain title actually managed to pass by all those Wii and DS titles that have been very complacent at the top of Japanese charts for a long time (and not ...

Virtua Fighter 5 supports 720p, but who read the latest EGM?
No, really, who read the latest EGM? We're going to have a paragraph to gloat. The PS3 Virtua Fighter 5 received game of the month, with a 9.5, 10, and 9.5 as its score. It's competition for the month was Crackdown, which fell a way's behind. Now, correct us if we're wrong, but aside from Twilight ...
IGN developing content for Sega? 1UP contributing too?
As much as you might cherish pummeling IGN-created Virtua Fighter 5 character 'Ryuutoushi,' the unprecedented pairing of press and publisher warrants investigation. A Sega-sponsored contest in which an IGN reader is selected to design a game character would be one thing, but IGN editors contributing ...
Virtua Fighter 5 secret character... created by IGN?!
Yeah, it's true... IGN got to create a character in Virtua Fighter 5. Sadly, there's probably no way for you to play as the character they created, but you can test your might against him in Quest mode (but a future online update to make him an unlockable would be fairly keen). How'd they score a ...
Virtua Fighter 5: a primer
GameTrailers has released a video preview of Virtua Fighter 5. While the preview is for the PS3 version of the game, most of it should hold true for the 360 release. Specifically, it should give those unfamiliar with the game some idea of why hardcore fighting fans are nuts about it. One thing ...

Today's prettiest video: Virtua Fighter 5 PS3 battle footage
The most downloaded video on GameTrailers, up seven spots from yesterday, is footage from the upcoming Virtua Fighter 5 for PlayStation 3. Since we remember a time when the Virtua Fighters were nothing more than wooden marionettes with painted facial features, we must say they have come a long way ...
Virtua Fighter 5, gameplay videos galore
Virtua Fighter is not for everyone. Outside of Japan, it's never gotten the attention of a Tekken or a Soul Calibur or, to a lesser extent, a Dead or Alive. Some will argue that it's a critical darling, but critical success doesn't necessarily translate to high sales numbers. As old school ...
