Why SFA?

Either I've never been good at the SF series or I just can't stand up to the competition of a more popular game or both.

Some fighting games I can never figure out. I 'm horrible in Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct.

I'm not actually good at fighting games at all. In real life even my non-gaming friends that are just button mashing often beat me.

I'm just really good at finding exploits and the AI in fighting games is often easy to exploit. Example I'm currently playing Yie Ar Kung Fu (http://www.retrouprising.com/arcade.php?act=Arcade&do=play&gameid=4729). There are 5 enemies then the game loops. First guy is weak against jump kicks. Second and 5th are weak close range. 3rd is weak when pushed into the corner. 4th is weak if you rush attack. I just spam one move over and over against each character. If the AI was any good I'd never make it past the first loop.

Just thought you might want a good challenge. The games can be cheap though.

I've looped yei at a few times myself. It's actually a pretty fun game that imo, holds up quite well.

I'm similar to yourself kong. If I button mash via keyboard I'm good but actual controller? Forget it.

How are you good at mashing on a keyboard... But not a controller?

Actually now that I think of it, I had a weird pirated copy of it for nes when I was a kid. It was on a multi cart.
