[GhaleonQ]

My 1st post back deservedly goes to the 1st best 3-d/2nd best all-time fighting game out there.

GhaleonQ on Playstation 3 is ready to go!

 

[Grifter]

Nope, XBLA games have always been released on Wednesdays (with the exception of a few games that have released on Fridays but these are rare). They usually release around 2AM PST.

Useful info. Cheers!

 

[soakrates]

I knew I wasn't going crazy. Maybe it is time I take the plunge.

 

[Daigoro]

that's a nice freebie.

 

["God's Beard!"]

Aren't you the guy who will be all over the JoJo fighting game if it gets released to PSN & XBL?

I already called the OP

 

[∀ Narayan]

Oh shit. PlayStation Plus get!

 

[d0c_zaius]

free VF man I think I hear angels singing

 

[Sayah]

Yo what, what?
http://shoryuken.com/2012/06/04/vir...ee-for-playstation-plus-subscribers-tomorrow/

Well, I used the PSN card I had for 3 months PSN+ instead. I'm gonna be pissed off if this turns out to be vanilla VF5.

 

[Douche McBaggins The 3rd]

It's going to be some classic SEEEGAAAAAAAAA if it's for vanilla VF5

 

[MThanded]

Yo what, what?
http://shoryuken.com/2012/06/04/vir...ee-for-playstation-plus-subscribers-tomorrow/

I'm pretty sure its vanilla.

Also if you get a free game under psn+ the moment your subscription runs out you cant play the free game.

 

[Absoludacrous]

Vanilla isn't already on the store though, right? If it's not, it doesn't make sense that they'd release it digitally the same day as FS. Talk about market confusion. I'm betting FS.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

wtf it's free for PSN+ subscribers? i was about to add some points to my XBL account but i'm already a PS+ member so if its free for download tomorrow i'll just do that!

 

[Teknopathetic]

Yeah, if you dropped money on PSN+ Specifically just to get FS, you're going to get suckered. As mentioned, even if it happens to be FS and not just VF5 vanilla, you lose access to the game when your PSN+ runs out.

 

[fernoca]

At the press conference I remember seeing the "vanilla" cover; not this new one.

EDIT:
Yep:

http://i.imgur.com/wy21c.png

But who knows. At least based on the conference, which is what that article based their post; is not Final Showdown. Guess we'll know for sure in a few hours.

EDIT 2:
Confirmed that is Final Showdown!

 

[Augemitbutter]

seeing VF and Hard Corps: Uprising together there was really good.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

If you need active PSN+ required to play it for "free" then screw that.

It's just $15.

 

[Coxy]

yeah but it does mean there should be a bunch of unexpected people playing on ps3, it's a nice community fluffer

 

[MThanded]

I am confused on the US blog they just say virtua fighter 5.

On the EU blog it says final showdown.

And to add to that, the image on the EU blog is the same VF5 image that the US blog uses.

I'm hoping it's just a matter of misbranding or just "eh, it's this game" and not that we get VF5 vanilla and they get FS.

Yeah, they really need to get their act together. Signals are getting mixed. Which region's store goes up first. When the store changes for them we will know whats up.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Maybe on US side they thought:"If Tekken 6 BR is Tekken 6, then let's drop the FS too."

But vanila was released,lol.

 

[DR2K]

It's probably the vanilla version released on PS3.

EDIT: Nope it's FS.

http://www.thesixthaxis.com/2012/06/05/scee-details-euro-playstation-plus-instant-game-collection/

You will lose the game once + ends though

 

[BadWolf]

Awesome, such a nice surprise.

Hope its not Vanilla.

SCEE and SCEA have conflicting info. Still not sure which version it is.

 

[Pookmunki]

It's billed as PS+ Game of the Month in Europe so I would be incredibly surprised if thenUS version is vanilla.

Should be PS+ GOTMFF though.

 

[BadWolf]

Yeah, thought the same thing.

Is Vanilla even available on PSN?

 

[MThanded]

I got 3 months of psn+ for free since I had some best buy credit. Guess ill be jumping in.

 

[Onemic]

10 more hours ahhhhhhhh

 

[BadWolf]

10 more hours ahhhhhhhh

An hour or so after I get home from work.

Yay, you guys can't start having fun without me.

 

[bumpkin]

On one hand, pretty psyched to see that VF: Final Showdown is a PS+ freebie this month. On the other hand, it figures that the arcade stick I own is Xbox 360.

 

[∀ Narayan]

10 more hours ahhhhhhhh

Are you shitting me? 10 hours? That's too long.

 

[OSHAN]

[Pookmunki]

Extended my jubilee holiday to take advantage of this being released going to be in the lab most of tomorrow methinks

 

[DR2K]

I'll just buy a year of PS+ and Sega will get my money via DLC. Win- win situation.

 

[Oichi]

First post updated with gamertags/profile names and the PSN Plus offer!

 

[SykoTech]

PS+ deal is nice I guess, but I'll just stick with buying it.

Hopefully all the people getting it for free will spark some more interest for the franchise in the west.

 

[Sayah]

This makes me happy.
And I didn't see vanilla VF5 on PSN so it's pretty much going to be Final Showdown.

Man I love PS+. I just hope they have a good/fair way of keeping the games once they switch from the PS3 to PS4.

I'll tell my brother about this and maybe he can download it for himself.

 

[Doomshine]

Aw fuck, I thought it was going up today in Europe, had my money ready :/

 

[FallingEdge]

CAN'T WAIT!

After 4 years, it will soon be here. Simply amazing.
