First off I have enjoyed playing this game, but I've owned it for one day and have already beaten the game with half of the fighters! I disagree with other reviews here in the depth of the game play. Like the previous versions of this game if you just punch constantly you'll win. As far as I can tell no hidden characters. Still, great graphics and it has been fun just not great. Buy Dead Or Alive 2 or Tekken Tag, much better.

VF 4 is a super fighter, and I'd say that it's the best fighter out yet. AM2 did a fantastic job retaining the deep gameplay with the simple 3 button control scheme. The graphics are bar none the best of any fighter out on the PS2 and anyone familiar with fighting games will recognize this as probably the best playing game period so far this year.

Not bad at all !

It's actually a pretty good kick'em and throw'em game. A tad limited on character selection but the moves are impressive and the combos are also very good. Tekken still rules as far as I am concerned but Virtua Fighter is a good title to own if you like these kind of games.

Sega could have done worse

Well I've been playing fighting games since I can remember - the look on my 3 brothers faces as we kicked each others butts, oh the memories. This one is good but not the best. The graphics are good ... Lets start with the number of players - 13 could be more but the detailed put into the 13 is great. No duplications with a change of wardrobe or body type with the same moves. The Bryants are the closests but still a little different. There could have easily been more than 15 and that probably put them over this hump everyone comments on. Moving on - difficulty of moves - like I said I have played almost every fighting game under the sun or moon and these moves are on the difficult side. Many days of training mode are necessary to be able to deliver any kind of damage the computer. AI in this game is top notch. The Kumite mode is awesome as you learn the different ranks and do pay attention to the rank of who you are fighting, if they are at least 3 or 4 ranks above you it will take you best moves to win and lets hope you know more than 4 or 5 move cause the computer will block those for sure. Reversals are near impossible unlike the DOA series and even more difficult than the Tekken series. The ring out option is very nice but some might disagree and say the fight is not over until I am KOed. I miss the story lines - why again is all this fighting taking place and what reward do I have for kicking all this [behind]?? ... Come on guys quit being lazy throw us a bone. ...This game is difficult even for the masters of this genre. Getting to the rank of Hero is still on my list but I am at least 7 ranks away. This game is tough. Worth buying though if you love fighting games - ...

Pleased.

I recently purchased VF4 and I like the different styles that are displayed in the game. The graphics are awesome and the game is fun. I would suggest to buy this game.

awesome pace, varied characters and stunning graphics are all good but the problem I had with it was that there were not enough modes. After arcade mode that left me feeling kind of empty because I did not get an ending to the intruiging stories of the characters all I had was Kume mode which I felt was a little funner than arcade but not enough to make me keep playing. There is also the AI function where you can make a computer character learn your style but there is no guidance in the manual for assistance to go about doing this. Once I figured it out I found myself bored after I had taught my character and did not know what to do with it because watching it play the game was about as boring as counting blades of grass in a football field. My suggestion is to look for a game with more replay value unless you like fighting games more than anything else.

great balance in fighting...but.

it has almost every thing arcade vf fans would want
hey ,me my self and vf ? we go back to the early 90s
it was sensational ,revolutionary back then...
but since ps2 is my first console machine and iwas
thrilled to get my hands on vf4 guess what...29inch LG progressive
tv i have ...seems to reproduce tekkens pro
-gressive mode very nice... but the sophisticated moves and
feel of vf4 seemed to be burried by the less optimem graphics
of vf4...if vf 4 has progressive compatibility it would be quite
sweet. but at this time what i can say for sure is ,
if u want to kick...at arcade practice at home with vf4.
and vf4 evolution is already out in japan and graphics has
evolved with many other features...but when it comes to simple
fighting well balanced joy...buy it ,you have nothing to lose.
i gave 3stars because of the graphics otherwise 5.

Great graphics but not VF

I've been a fan of the Virtua Fighter games since the original arcade, this one the took a sorry jump into left field. multilevel fighting stances... kewl but not effective with the Virtua Fighter title. The graphics were among the best I've seen in fighters but I was just not impressed with the way that they tried to make Virtua Fighter into Tekken. If you're a fan of tekken style fighters you might want to check it out but if I want tekken I'll go with Tekken not Virtua Fighter. What can I say I like the orginal Virtua Fighter(s) and it is my belief that they bombed the series with the changing of the fighting system.

Classic Fighter

Virtua Fighter 4 has the perfect combonation of funny characters and classic gameplay. The gameplay is incredibly deep once you get into it and the game is like something else. Since it's a greatest hits title there's no excuse not to pick it up.
