With two days to go, SEGA announces the latest title on the road...

SEGA Europe and SEGA of America have today confirmed development of Virtua Fighter 5 for PlayStation 3, with an expected release date of Spring 2007. The game, which unlike Full Auto 2: Battlelines hasn't been specifically described as an exclusive for Sony's next-gen console, will feature 17 fighters including two franchise debutants, El Blaze and Eileen that can be customised with a number of costumes and items.

Described as a Mexican fight champion, El Blaze utilises the Lucha Libre fighting styles to defeat opponents, whilst the Chinese-born Eileen uses a Monkey Kung-Fu fighting styles learned from her Kung-Fu master grandfather.

"Virtua Fighter 5 is without doubt the ultimate fighting game " commented Matt Woodley, Creative Director of SEGA. "I really think that this title epitomizes the fact that SEGA are ahead of our competitors in producing the very best next-generation games."

So what will be the last two titles on SEGA's Road to E3 announcement list? We'll have to see tomorrow and Wednesday.

We'll have more news shortly...

Actually his comment is totally truthful, the ps3 can't run games worth a sugar , at least the ones ive seen anyway. Every game ive played on it has had a completely dodgy framerate and numerous hiccups, now im not trying to bash the people that like their ps3's but i certainely can't stand for crap like that.
