VF:CG = Ouch !

 

[Sho Nuff]

Wow, VF Cyber is actually coming out this week...


...yeah, I'm sure glad we got that instead of the "Die Hard" style VF action game that Yu Suzuki was talking about...

Super Mario Ball (GBA, Nintendo): 7 / 7 / 7 / 8 - (29/40)

 

[JackFrost2012]

VF Cyber got poor scores because it wasn't a card battler.

Do you know what they didn't like about it?

 

[djtiesto]

Because Famitsuu scores are the definitive report on what's good and not in games...

 

[AssMan]

Because Famitsuu scores are the definitive report on what's good and not in games...

Considering the game looked like shit from th beginning!

 

[Prine]

The game looked crap since day one. These scores were expected

 

[Jacobi]

I had a little bit hope in VFCG (hey, it's Sega). But it got destroyed (hey, it's Sega).

 

[Meier]

The combat was really fun at E3. I'll probably still get it.

Hmm? Care to elaborate?

 

[jarrod]

Way to go Tose. :/

Zwei!!, Mario Ball and the FullMetal Alchemist fighter all did pretty badly too.

 

[Drinky Crow]

Haha, Bloodrayne > VF Cyber Generation.

You know, when Virtua Fighter Quest first announced, it really a lot of promise. I remember speculation on a Shenmue style Virtua Fighter game that went in depth with each character. I would have loved a game like that, but of course.....what a way to destroy a good idea, Yu!

 

[Drinky Crow]

Yu made Shenmue. Never trust a man who considers crap like that a good use of company money.

VF:CG=OWNED

 

[Kiriku]

I remember, from previous threads, quite a lot of people firmly believing Super Mario Ball will be such a fun game! Are you still believers?

 

[Drinky Crow]

Remember when VIRTUA FIGHTER QUEST was an all those Nintendo fanboys' lists as a reason to buy the GC?

HAW HAW, losers.

 

[ferricide]

.....what a way to destroy a good idea, Yu!

why is everyone picking on yu suzuki? he had next to nothing to do with VF:CG. he was off digital rexing.

A lot of people, such as myself, said it looked like fun. Because it did. You seem bitter.

 

[TekunoRobby]

Ouch on Super Mario Ball, the game concept and videos genuinly looked enjoyable but I'm guessing something is amiss with the overall package.

I'll wait on US reviews on this one but I'm none too enthusiastic about it.

The moment I saw videos on VF:CG and the mundane gameplay I stopped caring about it.

 

[Blimblim]

On 2ch someone says that VF:CG did not get 28/40 but 30/40 for the PS2 version and 31/40 for the NGC one. Still not great, especially for Famitsu but it would (if true) be a bit better.

 

[MetatronM]

Full Metal Alchemist > Virtua Fighter

 

[kiryogi]

Eh, thats the fighter FMA so don't be so sure about it.

 

[Insertia]

HAW HAW, losers.

lol
good times.

 

[MetatronM]

Eh, thats the fighter FMA so don't be so sure about it.

I was only making a statement based on the scores. And the scores say that FMA > VQ.

 

[DCharlie]

30 and 31 (if those are the scores) ARE good famitsu scores, but like someone else said, they shouldn't be held up as the baramoter of quality, because the reviewers seem to be , well, scatty some times.

"The combat was really fun at E3. I'll probably still get it."

I played the demo in our local store and thought it was alright! I didn't think it was terrible at all - it might even be fairly fun. I guess people hold VF in high esteem and i do agree that this isn't the direction i'd have taken the franchise, although i'm sure this is Sega's attempt to appeal to younger VF players. I recall seeing an interview where they were saying that all the kids don't play VF and that the franchise would decrease in popularity if they just relied on the current crop of players.
