    So the first of the fairly big E3 announcments hits..this one is kind of surprising:

    E3 06: Virtua Fighter 5 beats on PS3 exclusively
    Sega announces its arcade fighter is coming to Sony's next-gen console--and only Sony's next-gen console.

    ...

    Today, Sega announced that Virtua Fighter 5 is indeed coming to a next-generation console ... but not the Xbox 360. The game will be exclusive to the PlayStation 3 when it is released in North America in Spring 2007. Like the 360, though, the game will feature high-definition graphics, and will support 720p resolution.

    Virtua Fighter 5 will sport more than 15 characters, including many from previous installments. It will also include two new characters, Eileen and El Blaze. Of Chinese descent, Eileen "uses a Monkey Kung-Fu fighting style that she learned from her grandfather, a former Kung-Fu master," according to Sega. As one might gather from the name, El Blaze is a master of Lucha Libre, the flamboyant style of Mexican wrestling.

    I'm glad it's coming to a home system, period..Sony must be glad it'll only come to theirs.
