This game is alright

This game is okay, nothin special. The graphics are amazing, yes but the single player value is absolutly horrible. This game should only be played with two people. This game doesn't even compare to "Street Fighter 2" on SNES [for all you hardcore gamers out there :)]. I say again, dont get this game unless youre playin w/ two people.

A 5-STAR VIDEO GAME!

I have seen this video game at my cousin's house, and it's great! My favorite character is Akira Yuki, and the people I think are good too: Pai Chan, Jeffry McWild, Kage Maru, Lei Fei, Shun Di, Jacky Bryant, Sarah Bryant, and Vanessa Lewis. My brother's favorite player is Lion Rafale. My cousin's favorite player is Lau Chan. The player I dislike is Wolf Hawkfield, because on the introduction of the video game, I don't like it when he spins Akira Yuki, but I like it when he says his mean ol quotes like "Feel the real power!" "Shut Up, just come on!" "So What!" Igive it a ***** (5 out of 5).

Why so much hype?

Today, I went to the nearest Hollywood Video to look for a game to rent. I saw Virtua Fighter 4 and said, 'Wow, it's here. This is supposed to be great." I took it home, played it for fifteen minutes with my brother and shut it off. OK, maybe 20 minutes. But still, I don't like it because, unlike Dead or Alive the fighters move soooo slow. I mean sure, they can dodge and do moves fast. But the combos are hard and they [stink]. Plus, the graphics are weird. Yes, they are good, but weird at the same time. In Dead or Alive the characters could do back flips and spins and about six punches and kicks in the same combo but it's not like that in VF4. I don't see why it got such a good rating. It has no story, the training mode is bad, and the acting is cheesey...

I am a huge Virtua Fighter fan, and playing this game is really depressing. Ive been playing virtua fighter 1 2 and 3 for almost my whole life, and I'm 16 now. But this game really did blow. The game play is not at all like 1, 2, and 3. The backrounds were depressing to look at, maybe this game was good in the arcade, ive never played it in the arcade before.
The graphics were seriously horrible, the reason why I gave it 2 stars is because the close up's were really good graphic wise. The reason why so many people gave it 5 stars is because they never even played this game on the playstation 2. So if you only played a video game in the arcade, or haven't played a video game before don't write about it, i can't stand kids like that get a life!

A Good Fighter.

This is an average fighter game, but it features top notch graphics. This gmae was one of the quickest games to drop to the greatest hits selection. However, graphics can only do so much for a game that isn't fun to play. Overall if you are die hard fighting fan then I would recomend this to you, but otherwise pick up Mortal Kombat or Tekken 4.
Graphics: 9/10

Better than Tekken 4!

Many 3D fighting games have come and few give the fighting experience that the Virtua Fighter series gives. With 13 fighters to choose from and tons of moves to do, you can never get bored. This is a game to own and one cant miss the chance!

A long time VF Fan speaks

Having played Virtua Fighter since the very first one, I looked forward to this next installment. VF 2 brought us texture mapping, VF 3 brought the addition of a fourth button (Evade) as well as uneven terrain which played a factor in damage/blocking, and 4 brings us back to level playing areas and takes away the evade button bringing us back to the familar 3 button set up. It's as if they wanted to make VF appeal more to the masses as with 3 it started to become a little too complex/hardcore.

The graphics are amazing, easily topping even the XBox's Dead or Alive 3. Those who nitpick will notice the differences between the PS2 and the arcade, however most will not even notice. They are that good. Control is spot on, music and sound effects are excellent, and the game retains it's polished feel. The animation is as fluid as ever with the characters performing moves as if they were real martial arts masters performing their moves in an exhibition. The game seems easier to play than 3, as the game was tweaked for moves being easier to do and perform. VF4 brings two new characters to the mix , Vanessa Lewis, and Lei Fei, while Takarashi is absent leaving us with 13 fighters.

Many extras abound with numerous training modes and extra costumes and accessories waiting to be unlocked. Virtua Fighter has always been in the shadow of Tekken in the US when it should be on top. Try it and see why it is the number one fighting series in Japan. This should not be missed.

VF4 is not all of that!

I was expecting a much better game, especially after all the hype this game recieved. I play fighting games a lot, in my opinion this game was too slow, and the fighting just did not flow like i expected it to. ...Yes I like Tekken and have played 4 in the arcades, and it was more fun to play and have to pay ...to play then have payed ...for VR4 and having it stinking up my game cabinet.
