Namutree Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I'm a big fan of the fighting game genre. I was wondering if there are few fighting game fans here at the Obsidian forums. I would enjoy discussion on the genre. To get things going, here are a few statements people can respond to: 1: I wasn't pleased with Street Fighter 4. I prefer the alpha series. 2: I love Super Smash Brothers Melee, and the Brawl mod, "Project M". I hated Brawl itself though. 3: I like Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, but I wish the damage was a bit lower. 4: Mortal Kombat 9 was pretty neat. Any thoughts on any fighting game is great; I just wanted to give some people statements to agree/disagree with. "Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking. I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic.
Oerwinde Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I used to be a big fan. Killer Instinct, Soul Calibur 2, Mace: The Dark Age, and Bushido Blade 1 and 2 were my favorites. Haven't played a lot since the fun part was playing with friends and passing the controller around whenever you lost, and I don't hang with friends so much since the kids were born. Hence all my favorites being 10 years old. I snagged Soul Calibur 4 when I first got my PS3, but it wasn't nearly as good as 2. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Soul Caliber 4 was a joke compared to 2. Bushido 2 had an improved story mode, but otherwise was pretty much the same as 1 if I remember right. I wish Square/Enix would bring the series back, but I don't know how well it sold. One Must Fall is my all time favourite. That the robot one that was a PC exclusive? I remember it being pretty sweet. Edited September 14, 2014 by Oerwinde 1 The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Namutree Posted September 14, 2014 Author Posted September 14, 2014 One Must Fall is my all time favourite. I uhh... Never heard of it. That's pretty rare. Must be a real obscure title. Maybe it wasn't for consoles? "Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking. I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic.
Guest Slinky Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 It was PC only and it is pretty old, came out around '94 or '95 if I recall correctly. Still is really good and is also my favorite fighter even though I haven't played that many of them. Also has AWESOME soundtrack, especially the theme! Also loved Streets of Rage 2 on megadrive and Double Dragon 2 on NES.

Nordicus Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) I wasn't pleased with Street Fighter 4. I prefer the alpha series. I... actually kind of agree. Maybe it's a 3D models vs sprites thing, but I feel like it was easier to judge distances and attack range in Alpha 3. Adon feels weirder in SF4 Haven't played any fighting games lately, but I'm looking forward to Guilty Gear Xrd. And also that Hajime no Ippo PS3 boxing game though I'm not sure if that's an actual fighting game per se. Might be a Punch-Out clone, though I'm fine with that too Edited September 14, 2014 by Nordicus 1
sorophx Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Injustice is pretty cool. my favorite is Guilty Gear X, though. Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Super Smash Bros is getting a release for the 3DS, might have to pick it up.

Elerond Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 One Must Fall is my all time favourite. Hopefully you mean One Must Fall: 2097 and not One Must Fall demo (with human fighters) or One Must Fall: Battlegrounds

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 There should be a fighting game where the final boss is Hurlwife and you free Hurlshot from her corrupting clutches. #FreeHurlshot 2 "Akiva Goldsman and Alex Kurtzman run the 21st century version of MK ULTRA." - majestic "you're a damned filthy lying robot and you deserve to die and burn in hell." - Bartimaeus "Without individual thinking you can't notice the plot holes." - InsaneCommander "Just feed off the suffering of gamers." - Malcador "You are calling my taste crap." -Hurlshort "thankfully it seems like the creators like Hungary less this time around." - Sarex "Don't forget the wakame, dumbass" -Keyrock "Are you trolling or just being inadvertently nonsensical?' -Pidesco "we have already been forced to admit you are at least human" - uuuhhii "I refuse to buy from non-woke businesses" - HoonDing "feral camels are now considered a pest" - Gorth "Melkathi is known to be an overly critical grumpy person" - Melkathi "Oddly enough Sanderson was a lot more direct despite being a Mormon" - Zoraptor "I found it greatly disturbing to scroll through my cartoon's halfing selection of genitalias." - Wormerine "I love cheese despite the pain and carnage." - ShadySands
Keyrock Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) I wasted a fortune in quarters on X-Men vs. Street Fighter back in the day. Since then I've barely touched fighting games. I'll occasionally play some Tekken or Dead or Alive, because I can do rasslin' moves with King or Tina Armstrong. Also, boob physics.

Leferd Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I've always wanted to get into Bushido Blade for a long time. I saw the commercial for it when it first came out and I was over at a friend who had a cousin bring it over. Tried it out for about 20 minutes and thought that it was the coolest thing ever. Unfortunately I never owned a playstation until the PS3... "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle
Hiro Protagonist II Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Similar to Keyrock with mainly playing at the arcades. Virtua Fighter and Dead or Alive. Not much of Tekken. Also enjoyed the Aliens vs Predator arcade game. Sat there in the arcade for over 1/2 an hour and finished it. I had quite a few people standing behind watching me finish the game to the end.
Namutree Posted September 15, 2014 Author Posted September 15, 2014 I never cared for DOA myself. "Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking. I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic.
