Did they actually plan to kill him? Replace him with a younger fighter with the same style?

Maybe that was the original plan, but after so many years, are they actually going to do that?

It feels like a this point seeing Lau at the edge of fucking dying is like a character trait.

I have been a VF guy since March 1996, and I still remember exactly where I was, where the cabinet was, and the arcade I was at that first time.

I played most the characters (except the Bryants), but one day Sarah rocked my ass on Stage 2, and I really liked her moveset.

Shortly after that, I was playing Virtua Fighter "2" on my MegaDrive in Spring 1997, and went with Sarah as my main as I had liked her moveset after she kicked my ass in the arcade (I usually made it to Lion or Jeffrey, but I was having an off day that day).

Sarah has been my girl since then, and through every game since I have stepped up my skills with Sarah (I am best in VF, VF2, VF3, VF4 EVO, and vanilla VF5. They changed her so much in Final Showdown that I had to practically relearn her).

I used to jokingly say I was the best Sarah player in the Midwest, but at this point, I almost feel like I am the best Sarah player in all of North America.

I most likely am not, but it damn sure feels that way.

I just dream of going one on one with YOU one day (apparently the best Sarah player in Japan), and of course Chibita.

Again I ask, where are my fellow Sarah players at?!

So im playing Judgment and it features a cabinet of VF5 and i instantly found that pressing kick just melts all the Ai, i was even able to beat dural. why did they make the ai so bad in this game compared to VF2?

Just looking for people to play with since I don't own a PS4 or PS5 for ultimate showdown. Also is there any discord server where I can find matches as well?

This is probably a dumb question as I’m kind of a unique fighting game fan in that I prefer to play solo and go down various arcade paths for unlockables (probably chasing the high of 90s fighter memories).

No matter the character I choose in VF5US, I fave the same characters at the same stages and the training mode is defaulted to a location based on your preference of fence or no fence.

Is the only way for me to fight the other characters at other stages only during tournament play?

Hi. I've been seaeching on the web for a while now. I remember when I was a kid to play a lot on the virtuafighter cabinet at my local arcade. I'm not sure if it was vortua fighter 1 or 2, I'm more prone to the 1. By the way I remember clearly that I was messing around with the character selection screen once and heard a strange sound and noticed that a new character was available. I don't know if it was a reskin of an existing character but i do remeber that from that day on on that cabinet that character was selectable. The only thing I remember about him it that he was pretty fat, slow, with black hair and had in his moveset a very powerful punch wich was only durable if the enemy was on your back.

So after trying a lot of research I came to the conclusion that probably my memories are faulty (I was 10yo maybe) but I think is worth a try asking here.

Is there anyone on Xbox with virtua fighter 5 final showdown that can que at the same time for the ranked achievement

Does anybody have any tips for Dural in the first game. I can't seem to find any sort of way to deal with the ai here, even with savestate practice I've not found a consistent cheese using Akira. Do any other characters have an advantage?

For Goh I just hope they give him more hit-throws and make him more of a grappler
