Review : Synopsis by Cal Nguyen The Virtua Fighter franchise makes its much-awaited comeback, this time on the Dreamcast home console. Virtua Fighter 3tb takes advantage of what Sega's existing third installment for the Arcade version, and adds new features to it. High-resolution graphics and two new characters are just the tip of the iceberg. Akira Yuki is back along with Pai Chan, Jacky Bryant, Wolf Hawkfield, Jeffry McWild, and the rest of the gang. There are dozens of moves for each fighter including recovery, evasion, blocking, and the vast array of punch, jump, and kick combos. Fight in 13 3D stages that change in elevation and position, affecting game strategy. Multiple camera angles include a first-person perspective that puts you face-to-face with your opponents. The fighting engine is similar to the original Virtua Fighter so fans of the series can get right into the game, yet it's simple enough for newcomers. Attention to detail of the characters has been increased with motion-captured movements, trailing effects, rippling clothes, and even eyes that close, blink, and track where the opponent is! The advanced Training Mode lets you practice and increase your skills by instructing your computer opponent to do exactly what you want. Team Battle Mode lets you pit three fighters on a team against another set of opponents in a tournament. A history feature is included too that contains a video entailing the making of the game from the original Virtua Fighter to this version. Also, records can be stored and viewed using the VMU.
