PlayStation 2 Critic Reviews

Not only the best 3D fighter of all time, it will make you a better fighting-game player. [Sept 2003, p.66]

Its controls are near-as-damnit perfect, and the connection you feel between yourself and your fighter makes a game like "Tekken 4" look like it's just fooling around. [Sept 2003, p.95]

With so many improvements, Evolution easily surpasses the former "Virtua Fighter 4." Fighting game fans will be impressed. [Sept 2003, p.37]

A brilliant fighting game, perhaps second only to "Soul Calibur II." [Sept 2003, p.53]

The best fighting game ever made, for PS2 or any other system... "Soul Calibur II" comes close (and surpasses it in the minds of those that don't know any better), but VF4: Evolution is interactive one-on-one brawling at its purest and most visually alluring peak.

Probably the best 3D fighter on the market at the moment... Give it a try, watch your life disappear...

Beats its predecessor with souped-up visuals, new characters and moves, improved tutorials, hundreds of unlockable items, and the amazingly deep Quest mode. And this is a Greatest Hits title? Insane bargain alert!

The best fighting game we've played since "Street Fighter Alpha 2," this is arguably the best fighting game to date.

There's a massive amount of technique to learn. When you're playing solo, there's no shortage of things to do, thanks to quest mode and the dozens of training challenges.

The greatest fighting game ever: deep, almost infinitely replayable, lovely to look at—and only 20 bucks.
