A brief look into Virtua Fighter 5 by Dragonps

With the announcement of VF5FS it seems interest in VF has begun to pick up everywhere. This particular user on YouTube named Dragonps has decided to give his views, thoughts and opinions on VF5 for 360. It's nice to see people getting back into VF again.

Pick up a SIGNED copy of Virtua Fighter 5 for the PS3!

(Not the actual item pictured above)

In response to the disaster that happened in Japan, Sega of America has begun auctioning off various Sega related goods (including official signed merchandise and games) on their ebay page. All of the money made on the items will go to the Red Cross to help the victims of Japan. While you may not want the official Bayonetta cosplay costume or the signed copy of Valkyria Chronicles, there is one item that might catch your attention!

* Rare copy of Virtua Fighter 5 for PS3
* Signed by the Japanese dev team
* All for a good cause - 100% of proceeds donated to the Red Cross for Japan relief efforts!

So if your a VF nut who has some spare money, you will not only be getting a signed copy of VF5 (PS3) but your money will help victims of Japan.

Virtua Fighter 5 Version C Tier List

Special Thanks to VFDC!

S+ - Lei Fei, Kage, Vanessa, Eileen

A - Lau, Shun, Pai, Wolf, Brad, Akira

B - Goh, Aoi, Jeff, Jacky, Blaze

C - Lion, Sarah


Thanks to Markman(Scan) and Reno for the translation.

From the December issue of Arcadia. The VF5 article talks about why the characters are ranked the way they are in Ver C (left side) and the bottom article talks about characters and their throws.

Basically they just say that Lei is tops out of the S Ranks, and the other 3 are really good but Lei has speed/power advantage over them.

At the end they said that Lion and Sarah are bottom tier but they have more than enough tools to win tournaments so it's not like a huge disadvantage for them.

Lower class characters have to work harder for their damage/wins than the other guys, but they can still compete.
