Sonic The Fighters is an awful game, but for 2 dollars, its the EASIEST 400 Gamerscore EVER. If you like achievements, its totally worth the 2 dollars, if you don't care about the achievements at all then do NOT buy the game, its AWFUL! Not awful like WCW/NWO Thunder AWFUL, but its damn close.

Maaaan, wish this was a cross platform sale. I missed out on getting VF5:FS on the cheap for PS3. 400 MS is super cheap!

Perfect. I was waiting for a Jojo's discount. I would've settled for $15 but $10 is even better.

Wow , the timing of these sales are going to hit , just before Darkstalkers Ressurection is released. This is probably gonna take up some of Darkstalkers potentials sale. Many people will think , why should I get Darkstalkers for 1200msp , when I can 5 Sega titles for almost just as much ... lol

Since there seems to be some confusion about VF5. According to Major Nelson's blog:

VF5 is available for download via Games on Demand on sale until March 4th for $4.99. This is essentially a downloadable version of the 2007(?) retail release of Version C.

VF5: Final Showdown (the downloadable full VF5 update released last summer on XBLA) will be on sale beginning March 5th, for 400 MS Points ($5).

It's really hard for me to buy VF5 when I own VF5 Showdown.

Awww dang!!! I just bought VF 5 on the Ultimate Sale... Well, at least it costed me around $3.8.

It seems that I will have two digital copies of the same game after all.

@19

Do you know if the game is still played online at least? The regular version I mean.
Unfortunately for me, the people that I know that plays FGs (Which are less than 10, all casuals) are afraid of playing even DoA because 3D fighters are too complex for them, let alone using a block button (MK).

Have never played against another human on VF since VF 2 or 3 on Saturn, but would like to give it a try.

There is absolutely nobody on VF5 (regular). FS is still pretty active, if you play during the right hours.

Great, so I basically bought the PS3 version again. Well, hope that the discount remains in my country so I can get FS and play a bit.

VF5 FS is worth 5 bucks no question, the net code is surprisingly good. I'm living in a multi-person house ATM so we have to share the internet, as you can guess thats ruined my usual gaming with SF4. But somehow VF5 fairs well even with my terribad connection *shrugs* not sure why seeing how good SF4's connections usually are.

any word on the costume DLC going on sale? (for VF5 FS)
