Leonard McCoy discovered Virtua Fighter on the PC in 1996, and began playing the series from then on.

Being disappointed by Virtua Fighter 4, he more and more turned towards the then-dated Virtua Fighter 3 in 1999 and 2000. Leonard is still of the opinion that the evade button was a better solution to the problem of evading into the 3rd dimension. To him, VF4 and VF5 suffer from button over-assignment.

Having returned to the newest installment of the franchise on the Xbox 360, Virtua Fighter 5, he tries to get into the matter again. On his way back to becoming an active player, he tries to carefully write down every new aspect worth noting, commenting on strategies and tactics as they come by. Leonard is a fan of VF5’s online mode claiming it to be the best invention to the series since VF3. “It can bring remote people closer together, while playing, talking about and studying their most beloved game – Virtua Fighter,” says McCoy.

In real life Leonard did fencing for 7 years, Judo and Jeet Kune Do. He now considers himself to be somewhat lazy, more and more getting into music, literature and of course good video games.
