PsychoGoatee Posted September 25, 2019 King of Fighters, 99 especially (Evolution on Dreamcast). And agreed on the Street Fighter III 3rd Strike love! That game rocks. MvC2, Capcom vs SNK2, in general it seemed to me the Dreamcast era and it's selection of great arcade ports was the golden age of fighting games. I do love SoulCalibur VI as well for newer ones. 3 Share this post Link to post

On that note, I consider Tekken 3 to be one of the greatest fighting games ever made. Especially that PSX soundtrack. God, that soundtrack. Big Beat needs to come back already. Or how about an HD re-release (or better yet, a remake)? If you can do it for Soul Calibur II, why the fuck not Tekken 3? 1 Share this post Link to post

Gokuma Posted September 26, 2019 Ultra Street Fighter 4 seems to be the pinnacle of SF, at least since they fixed the shitty control delay in previous versions of SF4. SF Alpha 3 for Dreamcast is great for 3 player mode taking on two friends at once. Love the smooth animation of SF3. Capcom vs SNK 2 is great. Love the Vampire/ Darkstalkers series. Mortal Kombat Project based on Mugen, MK Armageddon, Mortal Kombat 9, and MK Deception are my favorites though I need a better comp to install MKXL and have only played MK11 over a friend's house. MK3 is where it finally got fluid but 1&2 though clunky are great for nostalgia. I actually like Deadly Alliance but I hate MK4 or Gold. (Little known info about MK Gold for DC if you have any interest: The yellow disc is glitchy launch day garbage. Only get the red disc somewhat fixed version that came six months after.) SNK's fighters such as Last Blade, Samurai Shodown, King of Fighters, and Garou: Mark of the Wolves are great. Never cared much for plain Fatal Fury though. Guilty Gear X or whatever the newest is. Couple old forgotten ones I'd like to play and learn to get good at: Weapon Lord and Primal Rage, maybe Primal Rage 2. Put the most time into MK Armageddon's Kreate-A-Fighter. 1 Share this post Link to post

magicsofa Posted September 26, 2019 Tekken all the way! My favorite was actually Tekken Tag, but that's just the one I happened to have and play for the longest amount of time. They're all good though, I've never not enjoyed a Tekken Game But also... On 9/21/2019 at 3:11 PM, TwinBeast said: One Must Fall 2097. The tournament mode is great with the pilot and robot development. Maybe I like it because it's so simple and easy to learn game. Sure there are some special (and basic) moves that are easily exploited, at least against computer enemies. ....This game rules! Unfortunately its not the most replayable game, could use a good sequel. I still think it's the coolest aesthetic I've seen in a fighting game. 3 Share this post Link to post

Gerardo194 Posted September 26, 2019 Well, my favorite fighting game is Mortal Kombat, from classic ones, 4, PS2 ones... I like MK9 but I haven't played it yet... MKXL just a little bit, it's good but I have more fun with the classic ones...but MK 11 is disappointing to me, it killed MK for me... I love fighting games, the very first fighting game I played was Battle Arena Toshinden for PS1. I can say how many fighting games I love... I wanna create my own fighting game someday 0 Share this post Link to post

Mortal Kombat Never played many traditional ones much, but I did enjoy what little I played of them. Heh, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat are about as traditional as it gets for fighting games. My list would be, as of this moment: 1-Street Fighter 2, the New Challengers (or grand master champion or whatever the final, complete version of SF2 was called, with proper turbo and a full roster.) Too many pointless revisions, but an amazing game regardless which version. 2-Super Smash Bros., particularly the N64 version. I was obsessed with Melee when I was younger but the smash community makes me cringe so hard my skin inverts, so I got kinda repulsed. All of the post-Melee smash games have too many weird, unfitting characters and are just too spazzy and “loud” in general for me. The 64 version has probably the best fighter balance and most cohesive aesthetic (even if it’s dated) so it’s risen to the top for me over the years. 3-Mortal Kombat II. Basically went through a less drastic but similar arc to the smash bros series. MK II fixed all the shitty aspects of the first game without becoming completely goofy and spazzy. The happy medium. I enjoy the whole MK series though, each one has merit. 0 Share this post Link to post

[McD] James Posted October 11, 2019 You like The New Challengers more than Super Turbo? That's weird. I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before. 0 Share this post Link to post
Rare Hatchiama Posted October 11, 2019 I like the one where you and a friend punch each other harder and harder each turn until one of you wimps out. Soul Caliber II. 0 Share this post Link to post
