Virtua Fighter 3tb is a good fighter, though one must be aware that to get the most of it one must practice, practice, practice. And like the game very much in the first place.

Problems exist in multiple however: the graphics pale considerably against Soul Calibur; the ending isn't much to look forward to; it's way too easy to Evade and also to win in single-player; and the characters, well, don't have very much "character"!

There are extras, such as a nice history video section when the game is won once, and a training mode which reveals the underlying structure of the fighting system (and in which you can choose to entertainingly pummel your opponent in 1st-person view).

So, there is definitely a level of fighting engine sophistication to be had here, but otherwise the flaws directly balance the positives in this game.

Sega what were you thinking?

I am so discusted by this worthless piece of garbage.It makes me sick to know that a great company like Sega would even think of relising a game this horrible ,if you own a Dreamcast do not get this game ,if you want a good fighter get Soul Caliber or Ready 2 Rumble.And if someone bought you it sell it or give it to your dog. Maybe you can use it as a frisbee

Good but not great

This game is good but when a game like Dead or Alive 2 graces the the Dreamcast and comes with way better gameplay well VF3 comes up short.However if your a fighting fanatic get this game.

Lacks the polish of Soul Calibur but by FAR more rewarding

Firstly Virtual Fighter 3TB lacks any sort of graphical polish whatsoever. The game is lacking in graphics when compared to Dead or Alive 2 and Soul Calibur but makes up for it in the technical and deep fighting fighting engine. This makes this a stand out title when compared to the watered down, all icing no cake titles mentioned above.

The game is a must have for 3D fight fans. The characters are fun and the backrounds are decent and they add some strategy to the fighting as they are not simply a flat surface.

The game is a must have, please go get it if you have a Dreamcast

GOOD OLD SCHOOL FUN!!!!

If like 3-d fighting games of fighting games in general, you should get this game. While this can't be compared to Soul Calibur, this is a good martial arts game. (Should be rated Everyone).

A wonderful game for those who enjoy spending many hours (or days) really learning how to even play. Not that that is bad, this game was made by Sega and is thus as close to realistic as they come. The depth of gameplay is amazing and the replayability is very high.

It might have been fun

Granted I am well aware that people say you can't compare this with Soul Calibur. However you CAN compare this with DOA 2 therefore I can not really find any real reason to play this game.(I have played DOA 2 so I can say this.) It does have some neat specials, some realistic attacks and ok extra's. Also it has about no replay value so if you really want to play it you should go to the arcade. It really would have been good if it were to be released prior to Soul Calibur.

Why is everyone so obsessed?

Why is this game such a big deal? It gets good ratings and acclaim from the critics. I read your reviews and others and decided to rent it. My first and only reaction was how pathetically easy it was. The moves were easy to pull off, and when i began, i mainly used them. Then as the game progressed and i found that the opponents were actually good at blocking them, i began to devolve my strategy into first combos then just mindnumbing pushing of three buttons in order. Punch-Punch-Punch. All you had to do was evade an opponent attack and then just do that combo. Evading is remarkably easy as all the characters have a remarkably long wind up, but if you fail, you are caught in a looong combo that you have absolutely no chance to get out of. The computer took half my "life" away with one combo followed by hits when i was down, because I COULD NOT GET UP. The controls are sluggish and the graphics bit the big one. Can someone please explain why it is so good?
