Hello everyone, this is Hooper
Today I propose you a Virtual Fighter 2 video
On saturn obviously
One of my lasts Saturn video I think
The introduction you see actually is interesting
because you can see the improvement made
graphical improvement between the first virtua fighter
and VF 2
Quite a surprising improvement, you can see it immediately
The first virtua fighter had angular polygons and textures
It was quite ugly, basic. But it's normal
it's the first fight game ever made
Even, VF 2 which was released only 1 year after
We have the impression that it has been made on another machine
Because the improvement is huge
But in that period of time of video games.
Between 1994 and 1997.
During 3-4 years, the improvement in 3D
has been very fast.
Every 6 months, we could see a new game design
It was almost a new generation.
It has nothing in common with now.
But it's normal, it was the beginning of 3D
SO. Oh this is excellent, with Shun-Di on the screen
I think it's the character I’ll take.
I trained a bit because I'm a big newbie at this game, Virtua Fighter 2
Sure, I know it, because I had a Saturn, a playstation 1.
I had almost all game stations, but I only played it a few
I wasn't fond of this game type, but I needed to make a video of Virtua Fighter 2
It's one of the best game of the Saturn
So, i couldn't finish my Saturn videos without VF 2
I hope I'll be enough ...
Honourable, in this video
But, i could have a few problems
Please don't hold it against me if there is experts of VF 2
if i'm pathetic
Let's go in options right now
And, because I’m pathetic, you see it stayed on easy
Let's set the enemy on, the difficulty on easy.
Time limit at 30
Continue, let's put some or I won't go far
And fights that we will win in 1 round,
so i will be able to go far
And eventually show you all the characters
of the game, because there is not much
So, we do arcade mode, there is multiple modes.
Multiplayer mode, i won't show it, it is as usual
Let's go right now in arcade.
I hope there won't be any glitches with my capture box.
And.. it is buggy, as I thought
So i turn it off and i got you back in a second
There it is, there are 10 characters
2 new ones in comparison of Virtua fighter 1
Shun-di, the alcoholic old man
And Lion Rafale the French one
And yes, 10 characters is little
But they all have their own style and techniques
They have lots of different techniques, combos
To be complete, I have the instruction booklet with me and ...
It's frightening
The amount of techniques available, it amazing.
More than 30, 40 per character.
And, with only 3 buttons !
In the game we use only 3 buttons.
Ah, I’ll try to throw him, oh I made him K.O in the same time
Yes, we use only 3 buttons in the game, A, B and C
A is used to protect yourself
I think B is used for punches and C for kicks
Only 3 buttons ! And obviously with the multi-directional buttons.
And it's all.
We don’t use either triggers of the Saturn controller
or the 3 others buttons which are over the first 3
And so, with only this 3 buttons, there is lots
of different techniques, different combos.
Like this, the technique of the pear tree
I'll try to... Ahh she got me before.
No matter ...
A little throw now
Oh, I trained a bit, but I’m really not a master of this game.
Don't attend to see a big boss, I’m even quite pathetic.
I don't know this game much. I trained a bit, you see I have lost
thought the game is on easy mode
I think this shows everything.
I'm sorry if there are fans of this game
I'll shame us
Ahh, but will you stop protecting yourself ?!
So, I'll protect myself now, even she got me
There must be different levels of protection.
Rhaa...
If I can't get through even if we are in easy, it's not necessary.
so, what can I tell to you.
At the time being, the game was beautiful
It came out in December 95 in Japan, we can say it was the first set of 32bit games
No really, but the first generation of 32bit games
It was really beautiful.
I love the music of this stage, of Shun-Di, I like it
Ahh, bastard.
I'll try to do the pear tree as I show you before
Ah, he protected himself this bastard.
Whoaa, what a great attack
Let's go away
You must look out because, in this game there is the ring out.
There is 2 ways of killing the opponent.
The ring out, put the enemy off the ring.
And the rings are not big
Ah, time over.
The rings are not much big
Or, obviously set his live bar to 0, which is on top, very classical
Mhh, what can I say else.
Yes, at the time being the game had 2 sides.
The virtua fighter side and the tekken side
It's two game styles, two different game styles, we would say.
Ah, what a bastard.
It's really two different game types.
The tekkens were more for everyone, we can say it was a big show.
Especially Tekken 2 Vs Virtua fighter 2
Tekken 2 came out only a few months after Virtua fighter 2.
Tekken 2 was a bit more pretty, fast and nervous.
That even a new player ...
Rha, she got me again.
That even a new player would manage to do something.
This is not the case in Virtua Fighter 2
which is a lot technical, complex, in actions we can do
It quite hard to get something doing anything
You must train hours with the same character
To manage to get something and manage to win
If not you can’t succeed
it's the big difference with tekken 2
Ans Virtua Fighter is realistic
Unbelievable!
Except the jumps
That have quite a strange gravity
A strange weightlessness
Look, if I jump
You see, 3 meters height
With quite a strange gravity
Ah, this is good
I'm fed up
Always the same technique ...
Throw ...
I'll finish you !
That was great !
What was I saying ...
I can't remember
Yes, so virtua fighter.
It was Virtua Fighter 2 vs Tekken 2
Tekken 2 was a big show
With impressive techniques
It was much more violent
And virtua fighter was more realistic
Much more technical, it's sure
But much more realistic and finer
with different characters
And thank god, because there are only 10 characters
No, he can't own me !
Noooo !
Aww, he is hungry against me
I can't do anything
Here, I can't do anything because i don't know the game well
I trained a bit but not enough
But I really wanted to do this video
Because I couldn't stop my Saturn videos without Virtua Fighter 2
But here you have the example that proves...
He made a ring out, this bastard
So, that proves if we don't know the game well
you can't do anything
Even I’m in easy
I let you imagine how it is in hard
The game was really impressive
When it came out it was the prettiest 2D fight game
It worked with 60fps
It was in high resolution
It was high ranked
Again, the comparison with the first Virtua Fighter ...
Oh no ...
Goddamned
Come here...
Fuck
It's a shame ...
I can't do anything !!!
I can't do anything !
Please, someone that is good at Virtua Fighter 2
Come and help me, please
What else can I say ...
The soundtrack is not bad, but it's not a key point for the game
The digital voices and the sound effect are not great
Again, it's not the key point of the game
Tekken 2 was better for this
Ah he is almost dead now..
Ahh i finished him with my great mega pear tree technique
He couldn't see it coming, this one !
What can I say
I said almost everything
You must know that it was one of the most sealed games on Saturn
In Japan, it was the game THE most sealed on Saturn
It's one of the big hits of Saturn
Me, I wasn't really fan of this game type
I preferred adventures games, or platform games
But I even known this game
It's a bit like PES now
Even the ones who don't play it, they know it
It was a bit the same with fight games, tekken 2
Even the ones who didn't like was forced to play it
Will you stop protecting yourself !
I won!
Hopefully, we are in easy
I don't know what I can say else
I said almost the principal for Virtua Fighter 2
Today, we are the 16 November
And what happens on the 16 November ?
And what happens on the 16 November ?
Well it's Mario Galaxy coming out !
I bought it, and played it a few
And frankly, it's a big game
For me it's a greaaaaat game
I think it will be a really big Mario
I found back the pleasure to play with Mario
There is lots of nostalgia in this Mario
I think it will be one of my favourites Marios
So, I’ll do a video
But I won't do it fast
I don't want to waste my pleasure playing the game
So I will do the video a long time
I think I will do Mario 64 and super Mario sunshine after
But it will be in a couple of months
He got me again ...
I won't waste the pleasure
But this week, lots of good games are released
Call of duty 4, Assassins creed, Crysis
There is lot of good games this week
We need money and time to play with them, it's the only problem in video games
We are always out of time and money
I can't manage to kill Kage, even we are in easy
I'll try one more time,  more concentrated
I'll try with the pear tree
Come here, bastard !
Catch this ! Miserable !
Catch it !
Bastard, catch it !
I can't believe it, I’ll own it like this?
Oh this would have been excellent
A little throw and he is out
Fine
I think we will leave on the last fighter
The last fight ...
We are at rank 7, I don't know who it is at rank 8
In this game, we don't have the fighters randomly
You seen the first, it was Lo, and the second Sarah
It will always be Lo, then Sarah
Then the others
Aww, he is so strong
So, well done Jacky
We will leave on that
I have nothing more to say
I really wanted to do this Virtua Fighter 2 video
It was an excellent Saturn game
One of the big games of the 32-bits generation
Bye, and see you next time
