This is very relevant to my interests

That being said though, this teaser trailer makes me think more Street Fighter than VF…

Still, not long to wait till further details at least.

Clearly I'm running on fumes – this has already aired. The above is now a VOD, here are the select clips SEGA put up on their own channel from the VF Direct, including a bunch of 30th anniversary messages:

Long rumoured, finally confirmed!

Having realised that Tekken has been going in a direction I dislike for a while now, I'm looking forward to see how this game develops. 3D fighters are in a rough spot, we need to see some life.

And for the love of God, Sega, rerelease the classic titles! You're so good at game preservation, why is this your one blind spot?

Virtua Fighter 2 was still available on PC and Xbox until a couple of days ago. Today (two days after delisting it), they've announced that it will be an overpriced and overly long-pre-order from the scammers at Limited Run Games (Xbox only). 

 

A load of other older titles have recently been delisted on most platforms.

Was this not the shitty Mega Drive version? I could swear I searched for it before, and that's the only version I found on Steam.

[Cube]

Not sure about the Steam version, but the Xbox version was an arcade port, which was also used in a Yakuza game.

Stunning animation.  I do love how grounded in reality it is, very true to the series
