I'm not sure if this is the best place to put this thread, but I didn't see any better places for it, so here goes. I'm trying to find a complete storyline of the VF game series, at least 1-4, understanding that VF5 wouldn't be complete yet. I'm looking for official cannon, so please no personal opinions or guessing on what may have happened. Already checked sources include the wiki articles and the official US VF5 website history (which only covers the direct background leading into VF5). These sources have proved to be less then complete. Any help or at least a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

There isn't so much a storyline as there are a list of motivations for each character offered when each game is released. Within those sort of vague outlines you are free to imagine whatever you would like.

Well, yes, mainly motivations, but there are also some other info like who won which tournament and so on. Nevertheless I don't think there's much of these informations :P VF is not storyline killer, and is exact opposition of KOF for example, where story is so long and complicated they deivde it to four sagas \:D

I don't know why Sega doesn't invest some money in making some CGI endings for the VF series like the Tekken series.
Everyone knows Tekken is a inferior fighter but the only reason it's more mainstream than VF is of the fancy bells and whistles aka actual endings.
I really think Sega should invest in story line of the VF franchise just to get it into the mainstream

If VF5 reaches the level of popularity that VF2 had then Sega might release a CD on each character like they once did with those "gold discs". Damn... remember when VF was popular? There used to be keychains, plush toys, etc.
>sigh< I miss those days.

They need to invest some dollars in making some ending, not everyone digs the old Game Over Credits.
At this point even stick figure drawings will do.
Stick figure Akira cries over losing to stick figure Kage again, while stick figure Dural runs away.

Well, yes, endindgs would make VF more popular series, but I don't think it's enough to make it so mainstream game like Tekken. Tekken and Soul are more popular because of frendlier gameplay and more explosive and amusing to watch flow. Virua is for elite, Viftua is for Us! \:D

It would be nice if VF had a storyline and endings.

Well we know that there is at least SOME kind of storyline. After all, each manual had a blurb about the preceding year leading up to the current year. Someone at SEGA took at least five minutes to write that, we just need a compilation of that story to look up.

Knowing who won each tournament would be enough for me, really. At the moment, I thought it was Lau, Akira, Kage and Lion, in that order from VF1 -> VF4. Though Jeffry's VF5 blurb seems to state that he won the fourth tourney, as it talks about him spending the prize money?
