Videos: Virtua Fighter 5 Jacky/Shun Di and Wolf/El Blaze gameplay
With today’s market inundated with fighters that sport everything from weapon-based combat to one-hit kills, it’s certainly good to go back to the basics and experience armchair pugilism in its purest form – and there’s no better title to give you that experience than Sega‘s Virtua Fighter 5 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. We see all that and more in this gameplay video update, starring four of the more popular fighters in this beat-em-up series that revolutionized fighting in the third dimension as we know it.
In these videos, we see two separate bouts – Jacky facing off with Shun Di, and Wolf duking it out with El Blaze. The environments look fantastic, the lighting blindingly realistic – and the action is as painful and well-animated as ever. One thing yours truly likes about this next-gen iteration is that it keeps to the root material – in-your-face martial arts, cringe-worthy impact sound effects, and the ability to give your downed opponent the what-for with a sneaky jump attack.
Enough spoilers from us, enjoy the Virtua Fighter 5 videos! Ready, FIGHT!
