I'm kinda surprised. Mostly since DOA and VF are polar opposites gameplay wise, despite DOA 1 and VF 2 sharing the same hardware.

Besides, Akira, like everyone else in VF as a character has no real personality, unless you count the anime version, and really, no one does.

As if I needed more motivation to get the newest DoA game. ;D

Cool, so I'll actually be able to play the character now and not have to spend 5 hours in command training?

(and the window for the active frames of his parry moves will be gigantic?)

EDIT:

Actually, I'd be more inclined to play this game if Akira played exactly how he does in the upcoming VF5 game...

Because it would be a fantastic way to troll myself, kinda like when I owned DOA: Dimensions for an entire week.

It's spelled "Virtua Fighter", not "Virtual Fighter"!

Less anime-ish faces. Just in time for the next Xbox launch like DOA4? Floating barge like Soul Calibur. Laughing

Kagemaru needs to be in Ninja Gaiden 3, just to make it right.
