Thank you for the link,
I had read the Eurogamer review back when it was first published.
So let me put something in prospective: DOA games have always looked better IMO than their correspondent VF games,
DOA looked better than VF2,
DOA2 looked better than VF3
And DOA5 arguably look better than VF5
SO your comment about finding it regrettable that VF cannot keep up in that department has to be interpreted somehow. Are you talking about VF in general? I would say that both DOA2 and SC1 looked better than VF3…did you find it regrettable at the time that VF looked worse than those games?
You say that you have not played seriously since VF2. have you played VF5 at all? does it look bad to you? It looks great to me, so we might have some different opinions about aesthetics, but IMO VF5 has been the best looking game on xbox since 2007.
Finally, regarding you issues with prices…you think 400 points is too much for a 1000 plus customization items? but you haven’t payed much attention to VF since VF2, so what makes you think those 400 or 2400 points are too expensive? too expensive compared to what? to other games DLC content? they are not expensive IMO when you take into account what they offer and how they offer it.
I have more to add, especially about how poorly other fighting games have handled balance and graphics glitches and bugs in comparison to VF, maybe due to the fact that they put so much emphasis on eye candy to the detriment of gameplay.
I mean, surely the “techinical side” of the game must extend to include issues like hitboxes, clipping and bugs, not to mention online code and consistency of side steppable moves (Im looking as SC5 mostly).
This is the last time you post here? fine, its a public forum on the internet, you can decide to reply or not, I just wanted to address some of the condescending remarks you made about DLC and VF which I think are misguided.
