    That looks sooooo good. The parry looks natural to. I dislike the look of any air juggles though, I wish Sega abolished air juggles all together...

    Looks very good. Especially the lighting looks amazingly realistic, whatever people say, it's way better than another fighting game just released on a next gen console that i won't name.
    Seems like the same game all over again but with better graphics, but that's the case for every single new instalment.

    I just wish Sega would use their technology for more interesting new franchises other than VF, HOTD and the usual 3 games they come out in the arcades every so often...

    I don't think it looks better just different.

    Nice animation in the moves :grin:

    I meant just the lighting. Like a generation apart. Obviously DOA4 makes it up with huge very detailed backgrounds.

    Much more impresed by that VF5 video than I expected. Hopefully they'll be able to tone down some of the plastic look in the closer shots of the characters. The movements were nice (I agree about the air juggle though), and I especially liked that they had some movement to the cloth. I wasn't really expecting it to look very good in motion.

    We really do need more video of that. But like others have said short and sweet.

    Really nice. I watched it frame by frame, and I am very impressed by the texture on the clothes and the self shadowing:-D If it was only a bit longer!

    I reckon that given the video was from a handy cam - direct feed would be incredible, but we'll see. I don't think people should be walking on egg shells with regard to comparing VF5
    In regards to gameplay, every subsequent generation of VF has been WAY different from its predecessor, VF5 shouldn't be any different. AM2 have always innovated in the realm fighting games and every other Major 3dfighting game (so it would seem) have *borrowed* ideas from them as it would seem.

    BTW -That low kick that made vennessa flip - she only flipped because she was already KO'd, which makes them rag doll like, and you can do sadistic things post KO.

    With juggles, you gotta make the thing interesting and variable.

    WIth graphics, You can't say one game looks better than the other because of so and so elements, it's the some of the parts, and really, VF5 blows DOA4 out of the water AFAIK. Plus we've only seen stills of backgrounds and models, which don't say much looking at this handy cam footage.

    Anyone notice Vanessa disappears just before the end of the replay in that video? She was on the floor and suddenly she disappears.

    Is that kind of telling that they might be using a higher detail model for winning pose shot?

    These are not helpful.

    It looks great because it looks great. Any console version of it is going to have its textures (and other stuff) cut down, as its running on something with nearly 3x the ram (1gb main and 256-512 vid ram).

    I noticed that too. It's possible that it's just a little bug from it not being a final build? I can't remember if VF4 did the same, but I vaguely remember it doing the same thing (anyone know?)

    The lighting is just awesome in VF5.

    What type of HDR rendering tech is AM2 using, FP16?

    It does look pretty good.

    It doesn't look like anything X360 couldn't attempt, though.

    I dont know what was up with DOA4. Considering Itagaki has always pushed the graphical limits on Xbox, talk about a disappointment, that it looked comparable in some ways to the Xbox titles in hi res.


    Maybe chalk it up to not enough time..

    OK, what I am about to say is not intended as a silly ****** comparison btw, but I'm bashfully assuming these specs basically set in stone that the current 'gen' of game (software) technology doesn't no way near require the seemingly enourmous bandwidth and/or raw horsepower and/or features that X360 or PS3 have, theoretically, to offer... Apologies if I missed it, but any final word on the GPU yet? Is it a 7800GT/GTX?...

    Anyways, watched the video. Short and sweet, but liked what I saw very much I must say :).
