Virtua Fighter....or Rock em vs Sock em robots?

Sega jumped the gun in 1995 and released the Saturn four months before it was supposed to be released. Due to this, the only game it launched with was Virtua Fighter. The Saturn port of Virtua Fighter suffers from slow downs and glitchly visuals. The gameplay is simple, theres a punch, kick, and block button. The lack of moves really doesn't help it. Nither does its outdated visuals. Through, the soundtracks holds up.

In overall, Virtua Fighter for the Sega Saturn is nothing more a rushed arcade port. And just becauseit was amazing when it was released, doesn't mean its such a great game now.
