If you suck at Virtua Fighter, PlayStation wants to help

PlayStation Plus members are currently enjoying 12 free games courtesy of the service's instant game collection. One of these titles is Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown, and if you're anything like me, the thought of mastering a top-tier fighter is laughable. Thankfully, the friendly folks over at the official PlayStation Blog (alongside Sega and the VF community) are here to help.

In a video released earlier today – the third in a series of tutorials – Sega's associate brand manager Jeff Beckham gives you the rundown on using basic attacks to effectively break your opponent's guard and string together combos at the right time. Advanced (read: professional) techniques come near the end.

If the game's overwhelming number of moves and character variety has you swimming in a sea of confusion, or if you just feel like upping your game, check out the video below:

    Sadly I didn't like it so I deleted it after that 100%

    Your kidding me right!!!

    The game doesnt punish you if you set it for easy set it for easy set it for 3 rounds and all you have to do is press triangle over and over again you can punch the person out cold
