This is very intersting news considering this earlier thread:

 http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=3390

 

Where it was stated that VF5 could NOT play online due to Internet latency issues.  Could the real problem have been Sony network latency issues?

Perhaps Microsoft was able to show the Sega VF5 team good performance numbers via X-box Live.

I'm sure that some of this also has to do with how much easier it is to develop an online title for Live vs Sony's version.  It sounds like each developer must build their own infrastructure for Sony, while on Live they simply plug into the existing system via a well established API.

IMHO, X-box live is still the "Killer App" in the next-gen battle.  Nintendo doesn't really have one yet, and the free service Sony provides is apparently becoming "you get what you pay for..."


The servers arent as fast nor as reliable as the new ones sony have up according to what I hear.

I doubt VF5 will get patched...

You can say it will...and I can say it won't....

Neither of us have any evidence to back it up though.

and i can say it really doesnt matter because the virtua fighter series has never been a big seller...


 And this is true about sales. But most gamers don't care about sales, PS3 owners in particular, right?


no not ps3 owners in general... i guess wii owners get to make all the sarcastic comments they want to though... you ignorant F**K


You're the one whos ignorant since I own a PS3, 360 and a Wii.

Sorry Ben pointed out that there is no basis for believing an online patch will appear, but you don't have to get angry at me.

 Making a snide comment about what Ben said doesn't reveal even a casual disdain for what he said? 

I guess I really am ignorant, even though that doesn't change how angry you get over a video game console. Shitting yourself over a joke shows a lot of maturity.

This is quite a coup. Glad to see it -- I've always enjoyed VF5, but I can't always have friends over to play it with. It'll be great fun to play online.



Seems like a rush responce by SEGA toward Namcos SC4 and T5:DR online announcement. I'm sure people that bought VF5 on PS3 must feel they got screwed.

I wouldn't have high hopes for SEGA to patch the PS3 version...especially when they have arcade income in Japan.



crappy old school NES games are more entertaining than next-gen games.

I have no proof but it seems like a logical course of action.


 It isn't the logical course of action at all because there has already been a precedent set by Sega.  Virtua Tennis came out this year WITH online for 360 and none for PS3.  Was it ever patched?  Of course not, and don't count on Virtua fighter 5 to be patched either.  Then again, if you made the poor choice of buying the ps3 version, I understand why you would hope there's a patch coming.
