The king of the swingers brings a new dynamic - and plenty of laughs - to Ubisoft's turn-based treat. So often DLC can feel a little forced, but every once in a while there comes something with a real sense of mischief - an expansion showing you that not only does the developer know why the initial release was a success, but that they aren't afraid to get really weird with the next instalment.

One of the best fighting games of all-time gets a welcome new run out, even if it's not quite as complete as it could have been. Given that it's been nine years since we last saw the series - and some 15 whole years since the last mainline release in arcades - you might well be wondering why there's so much excitement surrounding this week's release of Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown, a remaster that brings Sega's fighting series to modern platforms (or just one of them for now, at least).
