I think the conversions of Sega Rally and Virtua Fighter 2 were handled by AM3 and AM2 respectively. Why on earth Sega thought it would be a good idea to hand arcade conversions over to the third parties I'll never know!
They killed a console made popular by great conversions like Sega Rally.

I just thought it was down to the piss-poor conversion team, they handles House of the Dead which was equally as shoddy.

I remember playing this in the arcades back in summer 1997 and hyping it up to be as good as Sega Rally.
Nowadays if a game's good in the arcades you're garaunteed it'll be the same when released on console, back then though arcade machines were much more advanced than consoles.
The official Saturn magazine hyped this game up giving it a 6 page preview and saying it was going to be Saturn's best racing game yet, the very issue after they gave it a 7/10. I strated to lose faith in Saturn after this.

God what a shit game! Luckily we had one decent footie game on Saturn called Sega Worldwide Soccer.
Think ISS Pro 98 was one of the main reasons I got a PlayStation.

I thought the only good thing about Virtul On was the music, saying that some of the tracks were awful anyway.

Yes all the old moves are in there, they've taken out Lau's P,P, P, K combo though, to be honest it was cheating

I used to play mainly as Lau back in the day, with VF5 it's Jacky all the way!

Sega Soccer 98's pretty damn crap. That was one of the best Saturn games, it's in everyone's top 20. I'll have to nominate Dragonheart and Virtual Hydlyde.

Is it a Sega thing or a Virgin thing?

Saturn was pretty much dead in the west by the time the Japanese version was released.
