Fighting Games

[Wolf Kanno]

This use to be one of my favorite genres and I still enjoy an occasional bout here and there. Who else loves this genre/ What are your favorite series?

[Rez09]

This is, without a doubt, my favorite genre, though I can be quite picky about my fighting games at times.

As for my favorite series, it's probably The Last Blade or Samurai Shodown. I find the overall aesthetics of the games pleasing, mechanics and pacing beyond agreeable, and the casts are a LOT of fun, especially the wackier members like Tam-Tam and Genbu.

Tekken

[Depression Moon]

Yeah, I'm a Tekken man too, but I've been playing since the first and I'm getting tired of it which is why I skipped out on Tag 2. I used to play in tournaments from 2010 to 2012, but I haven't been able to do it at all in the past two years due to being at a real college now. I want to get back into the scene and if I did I'd be competing in Persona 4 Arena, Skullgirls, and maybe Ultra Street Fighter IV.

I love Tekken Tag 2! Tekken 3 was probably my favourite.

I enjoy Soul Calibur and Mortal Kombat also but I don't like them all and I don't play them often

[Wolf Kanno]

I'm mostly an old school Street Fighter man though the Alpha series is probably my favorite SF series. Guilty Gear is fun too but for reasons I can't quite explain myself, I really don't care for BlazBlue, I find it clunky for some reason.

I play tekken from time to time, but I never got super good at it. I prefer the soul calibur series, but that series is kind of not very popular anymore so it's hard to find people to play against.

For some reason, 2D fighters never worked well for me.

Tekken is the only fighting game that I ever buy. I've tried to play Soul Calibur and Street Fighter but I just can't get in to them at all. I didn't bother getting Tag 2 though as I'm hoping that Tekken 7 will get announced soon!

[Mirage]

Tag 2 is actually a really good tekken game. Lots of cool music, *every* character, tons of customisation.

Tekken x Street Fighter might still come out as well.

SFxT didnt' fit me because it's a SF game with tekken characters. I am sure a tekken game with SF characters will be much more up my alley.

[Perducci]

Street Fighter II, Tekken, and any of the Marvel Vs. Capcom games.

I'm terrible at them, but they're pretty fun.

Supposedly, they were making one. SFXT was Street Fighter with Tekken characters. TXSF was supposed to be the other way around.

I had a similar problem with BB at first, and I found it due to the unique command button that characters in BB have; it didn't jibe with the gatling combos I was expecting and threw my flow way off.

I LOVE me some Street Fighter Alpha. I try to avoid V-Ism, because those on-demand invincible startup frames and 80% combos are silly, and I dislike how useless they made Alpha Counters in the third game, but I love the overall mechanics and feel of the series, and, tiers be damned, Birdie is one of the most satisfying characters to play as. When you have meter and see that fireball coming from across the screen. . .

Street Fighter is my favorite of them all. As mentioned, the Alpha Series was the best. I loved the World Tournament mode in SFA3 on the PSX. Mortal Kombat & Soul Caliber are a good 2nd & 3rd.
