Check out this great article on Arcade Stick Input Lag Testing on the XBOX 360 and PS3. The first page is an overview of what "input lag" means, along with the a detailed description of the testing procedure used. The second page summarises the results of all the sticks tested, ranked accordingly into tiers, and the final page contains the raw test data. Interestingly, you'll see cases of the same stick model exhibit more lag on the PS3 than it does on the XBOX 360! Where does your stick rank? Thanks to @Unicorn for the tip!
Can't ever picture yourself winning (ha ha ha)? Not convinced that wrestling is the ultimate sport (awoooo!)? Well, Wolf's here to show you why he's number one!

To start off, we have Wolf combos versus Eileen and El Blaze in Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown, nicely edited with convenient stance and input overlays. Are you ready for this?
Do you remember GAVAN? From the same Youtube user, gekirinsyouryuu, comes this epic combo video showcasing all characters performing an Instant Kill combo. While some may not technically be 100% guaranteed, it's nonetheless impressive to watch with some extremely creative setups and situations, not to mention the fantastic editing and "bonus" footage!
EDGE recently featured a retrospective article on Virtua Fighter 5 which reflects back on their review of the Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown release in 2012. In reconsidering their initial assessment of the title two years later, they write: "but that learning, that process of discovery, refinement and perfection of the vast library of possibilities and potential is at the centre of what makes Virtua Fighter so endlessly rewarding."
Are you ready for some monkey tricks? Check out Tricky's Eileen Combo video versus Akira where many of her launchers and crumples are showcased! Oh, and you're not even ready for that intro!

VFDC is a website that's run for the fans, by the fans, and receives no financial support from SEGA, advertisers or other official sponsors. About a month ago I put a call out for ideas to help keep VFDC running to which many responded positively and in support for some kind of donation system. Today, I'd like to announce that you can now officially help by becoming a supporter!
