Fighting Game Franchises

[marxxx]

I say MK.

[Tails]

SSB.

Also I am almost positive a mod could of just added a poll to your last topic.

[marxxx]

oh. Didn't know that.

[Ashums]

i dont play these sorts of games much but the Tekken games i always liked more than the others.
i remember playing it years ago on my ps1, ahh the memories... good times getting knocked out :)

[marxxx]

lol Ashums i know how you feel.

[Ashums]

ive never been good at those sorts of games.

btw the one vote on the poll is from me :)

[Tails]

TMNT Tournament Fighters Genesis is great.

[marxxx]

yeah. im still trying to get a high score in that.

[count100]

well i still have to stick by soul calibur on this lol ;D

[marxxx]

have you played Soul Calibur 4 yet?

[V ideoY3K]

DOA. I used to play DOA2 a lot on the Dreamcast & I played my nephews DOA3 on his X-Box. imo, it's the most realistic fighting game series on the planet. The Soul Edge/ Calibur series ranks a close second.

[Dudebro]

I voted Tekken. Mainly because it takes alot of skill and practice to be good at it. No offense to the other games I just think Tekken is close to perfect.

[Kugyince]

I'll pick the SF series. Even though I don't like fighters anymore, when I use to the SFII series was my favorite.

[TNTisKING]

I really don't like fighting games at all, besides Smash Bros. I guess I haven't really played many other fighting games, but out of the ones that I have, SSB is the only one that keeps me interested (and not throwing my controller down in frustration after playing it).

[oasis]

I would have to say the SF games for the game play

but overall I would say soul caliber just because its better graphics obviously and more moves.

I mean come on you play M bison in SF and he has what 2 punches high low 2 kicks high low and like 2 special moves dart at you like an arrow and jump on your head.

[Kong]

Super Puzzle Fighters.

[V ideoY3K]

Super Puzzle Fighters.

Agreed. It is a Tetris style puzzle game, & you get to play as a Street Fighter or a Darkstalker. What more do you want from a game?

[Kugyince]

Exaggerating a bit there. There's a quick, medium, and hard punch and kick button. Depending on if you press the directional pad and in what direction they do different moves. I'd guess each character has about 20 moves total.

[Dudebro]

Yeah don't talk bad about Street Fighter. That game made fighting games as popular as they are today. It may have a limited amount of moves but that doesn't matter when the game is basically flawless.
Besides, all the other games may have more moves but that doesn't mean people use them all.
Trust me, I play alot of fighting games, the majority of players only use the 5-10 moves they feel secure about winning with.
Soul Caliber is one of the worst offenders. Ever play it online? Most people just spam the huge almost unblockable moves until they win or get you to ring out. At least with SF if someone starts spamming a move a skilled player can just counter and break them. Soul Caliber it's pretty hard to recover from moves that leave you pinned down and blocking.
Not to single out SC, I do love it. It's just annoying as hell to play online for the most part. I'm sure Tekken is just as bad.

Btw, I'd like to change my vote. While Tekken is pure awesome I'd like to nominate a underrated game instead.
BLOODY ROAR. I enjoyed that game more than any other fighting game. If you haven't tried it and you're a fan of fighting games I suggest you do. But only the first and second games, after that it went to crap.

[marxxx]

yeah. i loved bloody roar: primal fury on GC.

[oasis]

I think you guys miss understood me just a bit. I like SF I acctually voted for that game. But I was mearly pointing out that M Bison had the least moves you could do yet he kicked my ass every time

[marxxx]

same here oasis.

[V ideoY3K]

...M Bison had the least moves you could do yet he kicked my ass every time


same here oasis.

Oh, come on guys! He isn't that hard to beat. You just got to take to the air alot. Two scenarios: 1) You'll counter his jumping kicks with some of your own. The success of that depends on which fighter you're using. 2) When he goes to cheap-stuff Psycho Crusher and you're in the air, you'll dodge the move.

I maybe just a intermediate gamer, but against Bison, I RULE. PERIOD! THE END! DONE!

[Kugyince]

That's why Chun Li's my girl.

Double jump owns everything Bison throws at you. If he tries his far reach superman jump punch combo Li's in air foward mid-kick has the reach to hit first. Or if you get behind him you can foward strong-punch to do a mid-air throw. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Then when he goes into his Psycho Crusher/Widowmaker combo Chun Li shines even more so. Her in air down quick-kick can hit him (and Blanka's electric Shield) without taking damage. Followed by a rebound backflip, strong sweep and a lightning kick as he tries to get up.

Can you smell the Double Perfect in the air? 8)

I vote Tekken, you can understand them right away, but it takes a long time to fully master, and there is great balance and yet the characters all feel different.

You realize this thread is mega old right? I'm not saying it's a bad thing you posted, but the fact that you didn't say bump makes me think you were unaware.

I was unaware, thanks for telling me.

[Dudebro]

For the record it's ok to bump old topics as long as you have something to contribute. If you bump something with spam it will be annoying and people will make fun of you.

None of this is aimed at you Demon-Mask, you're post was fine.

[DrunkN]

But again, if you don't say "bump" it's a little awkward. Not harmful, it's more like saying "ATM machine".

[Kugyince]

Unthaw and dethaw.

[Kong]

preheat

Sorry I didn't magically know the convention for something I had no way of knowing.

[DrunkN]

You do have a way of knowing. It says right on the post how old the post was. And there's no need to get sarcastic here, all I meant to do was give the heads up and explain.:disdain:

I misenterpreted your posts. I didn't know to look at the date. I was refering to the convention of saying "Bump"

Yeah, this is the first, and only forum I am a member of.

[AVGNJr1985]

I vote for Street Fighter and it's my most favorite Fighting game. My favorite fighters in that game are Ryu, Ken, Guile, Chun-Li, and Cammy. Also Juri.

[FudgyDRS]

Well I voted Tekken on this zombie thread.
