Are they the ones with the greatest hits logo? Most giant retail stores keep stocks of greatest hits games for the PS2 around. I wish they kept VF4 Vanilla in stock as both of my copies somehow have disc rot and need replacing.

I picked a PS2 up and the entire GTA series plus both God of War games last week to give to one of my friends to repay a favor he did for me recently. PS2 greatest hits titles are some of the best games of all time (like VF4EVO).



Yea its greatest hits, but still confused
I can understand have 2-3 copies, but its between 4-6 and for VF which supposedly doesn't sell. Don't get me wrong, I happy anytime I see the stores stocking VF, its the number of copies that has me wondering..... smile

Wasn't a full price game here on release day, pretty sure it was £25 - £30.

I thought it was Greatest Hits price outside of Asian territories for everyone. The U.S. release was Greatest Hits but had the extra of the VF10th anniversary game built into the EVO options menu right on the disc.

It was released full price over here. No 10th anniversary bonus but we got it much earlier than the states.

VF4:Evo debuted as a "Greatest Hits" title in the States. Probably the only game in the PS2 library to do so.

VF4 EVO was my favorite game of all time hands down.

That being said I still have hope that VF5R Ver C will come for home consoles (no real need for a ver d of R). We still have 2 big gaming events this year in japan SBO and TGS. Are we addressing the right people the game informer staff don't know but you have to admit it would be awesome to see VF5R get a cover on game informer.

If really VF5R Ver C will hit consoles, I hope there would be a new installment of new characters, more customization, lots of mini games and story mode. Virtua Fighter have no storyline and any introductions during gameplay. It's about how you win every game with different fighters with various fighting style. Any suggesions for the new version?

I suspect Sega is finished with the era of VF5 now. Even if there's a Version C, chances are there will be no gameplay changes if we look at the current update pattern.

We're gonna have to wait for an eventual VF6.

I'm completely pessimistic about Sammy's commitment to this franchise. I would love to see even a leaked "6" graphic at some point in the next 1.5 years, but I'm already expecting to not see a new VF until well into 2012-2013... if even at all.

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!
