Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown Preview (PlanetXbox360)

It was a few years ago that Sega opted to bring Virtua Fighter 5 exclusively to the PlayStation 3 following its release on the market – well, for a few months anyway. It wasn’t long before an online-compatible version of the game – titled Virtua Fighter 5 Online to boot – came to Xbox 360, letting players challenge each other in matches. (The same couldn’t be said for the PS3 version.) That’s still a great fighting game, but it’s since been overshadowed by other efforts, packed with features. Well, hang on tight, because Virtua Fighter’s comeback is official. Sega has announced that it will be bringing Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown to Xbox Live Arcade next summer. It’ll pack all the fundamental features that made the original VF5 Online such a hit, along with other components to help make it one of the most addictive fighting games out there.
