I don't mind if 360 users get the patch, hell I wouldn't mind if I had bought it on 360. However, the PS3 has gotten plenty of game patches, even from 3rd parties, so why don't they do the same? It's only customer service, SEGA.

SEGA hasn't really been doing many great games as of late, so I'm gonna pass on every game they make (like I'm missing much) until I get the online gaming patch, which should be possible on PSN as it isn't p2p , Tekken 5 was possible, and PSN isn't having the amount of problems that XBL is currently having.

InMyOpinion5945d ago

If you started buying their games instead of passing on them maybe the PS3 version would get a patch too.

PSN has no problems yet as there is no amount of traffic comparable to the heavy load on XBL.

switch-it5945d ago

Well, it sold more on PS3 so i dont see why they wouldn't support that version too.

I have it for my PS3 and i really love it, very good party game, but when im alone i would like to play with others, online and since the X360 version got online features i dont see the problem with making a online patch for the PS3, i really dont.

So please Sega, make a online patch for us PS3 gamers.

Mwaan5944d ago

The PS3 version was not. They can't simply add an online patch for the PS3 version because they had no intentions of doing so during development. They aren't done with the game yet. I expect a VF5 evolution type release for the PS3 with new characters, online play, and further gameplay tweaks. Relax, you guys did get the game first you know.

MADGameR5944d ago

Because they are supporting losers like MS. X Box 360 will lose this war again because Microsoft will bring out the X Box 720! ROFL!

It may be a hard fact to swallow for many here, but for the best gaming experience, you just have to Jump In, not Play Beyond.

bootsielon5945d ago

Even if I didn't buy games, I bought VF5, which should be enough for SEGA to give me customer service on that game.

jlytle12345945d ago

keep your virtua fighter...tekken is better, soul calibur rules all. Sega sure doesnt play nice with the ps3. First they snubbed the ps3 on voice support for ac4 and then snubbed ps3 of online for vf and now spraying lemon juice on it by giving 360 patches for vf. I know sony put them out of the console business, but that was a while ago. Cant we all just get along.

sajj3165944d ago

Have VF5 for the PS3. I would love to play online. I guess I understand priorities but PS3 has the bigger installbase.

What is?

Witcher III, Slay the Spire, Virtua Fighter 5, and Sonic Mania are an excellent lineup of titles to add.

Smok911060d ago (Edited 1060d ago )

Lol thanks for your thoughts. Let’s now collectively disagree.

waderae1060d ago

How can you disagree with virtua fighter 5? You haven't played it. It's not out.

Hawk1986661059d ago

All the disagreeing are fools. You thinking adding a 6yrs old game thats timed, that's on sale nearly all the time for cheap is a great addition as the main game?? 2 of the games are previous PS+ games so a lot will already have them. And Virtua Fighter nearly everyone will already have that through plus! You're all Clueless

SegaSaturn6691060d ago

Those are great titles. Real treat.

Rocosaurus1060d ago

Love witcher 3, but that game is six years old.

Eidolon1060d ago

Great great game. Would need another playthrough (Gwent and horse racing) to get the platinum, plus I never bought/played the expansions.

monkey6021060d ago

Slay the Spire is an incredible game

Highrevz1060d ago

Agreed but I almost slept on it if I’m honest.

It’s like a traditional turn based RPG without the dramatic story. Monster Train is another good game if you need something similar to Slay the Spire.

monkey6021060d ago

I've heard that actually. Not played it yet though. Good shout!

I'd love to see Sega bring back Eternal Champions.

BlackTar1871506d ago

Why is there no Star Gladiator or Battle Arena Toshinden?

Terry_B1506d ago

Because the other 10 mentioned series were better. Star Gladiator 2 was just the first part with more characters, Battle Arena Toshinden went really downhill after the 2nd game.

BlackTar1871506d ago (Edited 1506d ago )

o got it. Cause you said those games aren't as good... Got it.

since Battle 1&2 were pretty damn good and Star Gladiator 1 was very good those sound like perfect games to remake.

Also saying a fighting game is the same as it's predecessor with more characters sums up like 90% of all sequel fighting games.

Also BA3 was not a bad game and wasn't given a bad reception.

Skuletor1506d ago (Edited 1506d ago )

I think licensing is one of the major reasons Fight for NY hasn't been ported, since its original release. Def Jam had a poll on their Twitter a year or two ago asking if people would be interested in a new entry to the series. A surprise next gen release with AKI developing it would be cool

Silly gameAr1506d ago

Definitely yes to Weaponlord, Bloody Roar, Rival Schools, Power Stone, Bushido Blade, Darkstalkers, and the Def Jam games. I was really big into fighting games when I was younger. I would Like Primal Rage, B.A,T., and Eternal Champions to come back as well.

BlackTar1871506d ago

Primal Rage was good. There was also another game that was kinda like Weaponlord that I used to really like but I can't remember the name.

Ready to Rumble was cool back int he day as well

Ninver1506d ago

Rival schools and virtual fighters

Ask Sega. All of Yu's games haven't gotten updates. And they aren't helping to bring Shenmue 3 to console and PC. Spent most of their time on Sonic and Yakuza. Like they forgot the man that got them started. He was the "Miyamoto of Sega." Too many hits under hits belt.

VF is one of the best if not the best, technical fighters around based on real fighting styles. No supers, no finishers,etc. I wish there wasn't any juggling. It was fun as a videogame mechanic but I would like full realism for a fighting game. It's like adding nos to Gran Turismo. Would be fun. Just doesn't fit the realism Kaz wants in his game of winning through skill and perseverance.

I'm hoping for a new Sega surge of games in and out of VR and more respect for Yu and his properties. It's just not the same Sega I grew up with though.

As a side thing, Sega could have even updated Last Bronx to a modern fighter like Namco did with Soul Blade to Soul Calibur.

But they've sat on that too.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1742d ago

I 100% agree with what you said about VF. As someone who use to play VF5 at a high level I want nothing more than VF6 however, I’m scared to see what would happen to VF in this day and age of super meters, rage bars and 100 hit combos.

SierraGuy1742d ago

Exactly...I love Tekken but I love VF a little bit more.

tulholdren1742d ago (Edited 1742d ago )

Loved me some VF wish they would update the game i still remember my first Jeffery power bomb on VF 1.

PhoenixUp1742d ago

What happened to a lot of Sega’s classic franchises?
