Virtua Fighter 5 -- PS3 hands-on edition... verdict? Arcaderific!

The results are in: Virtua Fighter 5 is arcade perfect. You can check out the screenshots if you want, but they're not exactly the clearest or of the best quality. All the characters and stages were present for the test play, but there is a downside to this. Load times. An approximated 10 seconds from the character select screen to the actual fight may sound like a long time, but apparently it wasn't too much of an issue. Still, let's hope Sega can get that optimized before it hits retail shelves.

Speaking of release, when would that be? Sega hasn't made anything official yet, but from what was screened and implied at the press conference, a January release is in the realm of possibility. VF5 will be playable at the Tokyo Game Show, so expect a lot of more detailed comparisons between the console and arcade versions next week.
