Virtua Fighter 2 at first looks very basic compared to games today, but it's actually a very smooth glitch free game. Virtua Fighter 5 is really basically the same game built upon greatly from this solid foundation that was set by VF 2. Virtua Fighter 2 is still very fluid to play and hits all the right spots even today. In fact just read my review of Virtua Fighter 5 FS, everything I wrote about the gameplay applies exactly the same back then as it does now. Virtua Fighter 2 is the same.īasically the game itself is excellent, perfectly balanced and awesome in every way. It's like watching classic Bruce Lee movies, once you get over the 70's look and feel the Martial Arts scenes are amazing.
My personal favorite from the classic early 3D fighting game era. Hopefully this will put you in the right mindset as when you boot the game up, compared to Xbox360 games, and the last few years of game after game in glorious HD visuals for our huge widescreen TV's you'll wonder what all the fuss was about.
What I'm trying to say is this game came out roughly in an era when games like Golden Axe 3 were coming out too. Better graphics, more fluid gameplay, better backgrounds, better everything. The first game looks atrocious by 2012 standards but it did for 3D fighting games what Doom did for future fps games.Īt the time Virtua Fighter 2 was an amazingly big leap over the first game. And it's successful template extends still today. The first Virtua Fighter was a huge success in terms of taking the 2D fighting game into the land of 3D.
so now Shun Di's stage has a bridge in the background :) (to any veteran Saturn players). The version XBLA gets is the original arcade version. It was later released on the Sega Saturn in 1995 and was an excellent port (which was rare as at the time as arcade hardware was always better, so home console ports always suffered from poorer graphics and often other concessions too). Virtua Fighter 2 was a classic Sega Model 2 Arcade game from 1994. This is an Achievement website so this review will look at the game and it's relation to the Achievements.
