It pretty much looks like all the previous Virtua Fighter games but with better graphics. This became apparent when I watched one of the characters get hit and fall backward through the air, and then upon subsequent blows, the same falling animation repeated itself in a sort of corny physics-defying way in which somehow getting hit horizontally while in the air can theoretically launch you vertically through the air.
In this way I just described there's something sickeningly formulaic and robotic about the animations, so much that I can fail to see how it will be superior to say, Virtua Fighter 4 in any way besides graphics. In an odd way I don't know what to expect to improve upon this, but my guess is that I want more randomness for the sake of realism. I am suspend my disbelief that one can take powerful blows to the body and get up and continue fighting, but that's about where it ends. Please, some developer do something new for games.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
