Virtua Fighter & Tekken Ghosts

Virtua Fighter 4 has trainable AI . The player can have a trainable AI for each character and can save that AI to memory cars on the PS2. I play against my brothers AI my friends trainable AI all the time. Virtua Fighter had the concept of ghosts long before Tekken started using the concept. You can literally set up your Lau AI to fight against your Akira AI and identify your own strengths and weaknesses in a match up.

Virtua Fighter 4 thru Virtua Fighter 5 has the concept of fighter analysis , where the system keeps track of your strengths and weakness, as well as other Stats, these are also kept for the for the trainable AI

 

Yeah, in VF4 those things are really revolutionary features. And then everyone tries to copy them, 10 to 20 years later. Lol!

Sega is king when it comes to innovative ideas. They are definitely ahead of the times.

 

They used to be., But with VF5US they gave us Tekken Hit Sparks, Tekken Skins, Tekken music, and a Tekken UI. That doesn't feel very innovative to me


Sega's best days might be behind them

 

Yeah, putting those things in tekken felt out of place.

I agree.

They need that old spark back.

 

Technically it dates all the way back to VF2's home versions like the Saturn port and the old PC port. Sadly, idk how to get it to work right on the old pc port.

 

B/c VF5US is the ONLY ONE not AM2 team VF game. ANOTHER team took the game from original devs and just develope a new COSMETICS (graphics, sparks, etc), not the game core.
And this new dev team did things BAD imho.
So VF5US is not a true VF game.
So i am afraid for VF future b/c of this new team "skills".

 

Absorb Netcode was kinda revolutionary too. It made the fights feel like it was underwater, no other fighting game could imitate that
