    The addition of the hit sparks was very lazy on the part of Seiji Aoki. It was one of the cheapest (least expensive) changes he could make to the game that brought it to new consoles :oops: It was a fatal mistake:( In his mind he thought adding hit markers would make battles more satisfying and dramatic Here is a quote from his blog Virtua Fighter Ultimate Showdown Remaking A Legend

    "we also added new features to enhance the viewing experience. Upgraded hit markers make battles more satisfying and dramatic,"

    He was just copy-cat pandering off of Tekken and Street Fighter. In doing so, he defaced, and brought shame to the Virtua Fighter presentation and franchise. Here is the entire blog

    At the very least hit sparks should have been made optional. I can't really play VF5US at all I can barely stand to look at game play now :cry: I try to play VF5US and after a few yellow and purple flashes, I go back to some older VF game, or something else entirely. Shame on Seiji Aoki for Vandalizing Virtua Fighter's beautiful presentation with those low budget tawdry and hideous hit sparks. He has caused our community to lose face in front of the entire gaming community:mad:

    Once Seijo Aoki released the Tekken Skins on top of the Hit Sparks, it was clear whose
    d#ck he was sucking....:cautious:
