198384, What fighter is the GOAT?
Posted by JAESCOTT777, Fri Jul-24-09 12:28 PM
Lately I've been leaning towards SF4

I mean 2d 3d
at the end of the day what reigns supreme?

198388, The original Virtua Fighter felt like a real fucking fight.

198447, VF2 was great. my friend actually had a Saturn, so we'd play that shit...
Posted by FortifiedLive, Fri Jul-24-09 04:11 PM
all the time in junior high. that and Virtual On.
198401, imo Tekken 2 sonned it. I use to play VF2 like crazy
Posted by Lach, Fri Jul-24-09 01:29 PM
and then they put the Tekken 2 machine right next to it. And we were all done with VF. Highschool years Everyday after school we'd be in the chinatown arcade battling.
198402, Tekken had more gimmicks and colors and shit.
Posted by Orbit_Established, Fri Jul-24-09 01:30 PM

But the physics of the fighting and the angles
and all that shit?

VF2, hands down

Oh yeah: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNCfKd7Tb5s
198399, SF Alpha 2 or 3. 4 is a close 2nd place.

198403, My top 5 of all time as of right now
Posted by Lach, Fri Jul-24-09 01:32 PM
1. Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold
2. Tekken Tag Tournament
3. Street Fighter 4
4. Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo
5. Soul Calibur

198409, I wanna say Blazblue, but it's too soon
Posted by chillinCHiEF, Fri Jul-24-09 01:40 PM
So I'll say a 3-way tie between SSF2, 3S and SFA3.
198410, Tekken 3, the OG Soulcalibur has a shout too.
Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Fri Jul-24-09 01:48 PM
SFA3, Blazblue, GGXX#R

i'm obviously missing something w/ SF4 though. shit is boring.
198412, I want a Tekken Tag online game. That would be straight ill
Posted by Lach, Fri Jul-24-09 01:49 PM
198430, idk why they just dont add a tag feature
Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Fri Jul-24-09 02:50 PM
especially since it doesnt seem like theyre interested in making TTT2

DOA has one right?
198536, I'm not even a Tekken player, but yeah -- it's Tekken 3

I learned about fighting games simply by watching my friend and his brother go at it in that game.

That game ... that was the game where one time we were at the arcades, and my friend was fighting a scrub, and I was watching, and I KNEW what was happening ... and my friend lost ... and I asked, Peter, what the hell? and he replied, cool as hell, Tieg, if you can't see that I have to get to class ...

His ass lost that game on purpose.

He was dominant at home, dominant in the arcades, all over town.

There's a large memorization quotient to Tekken, moreso than others, but the blend of memorization and reflexes is the best. Virtua Fighter is all reflexes, King of Fighters is all memorization, and somewhere in-between is Tekken.

It's amazing.

Tekken Tag is the good looking sister to Tekken 3, too ...
198424, Samurai Shodown 2 or King of Fighters 98

198454, I haven't played many in awhile (and I suck at all of them)
Posted by will_5198, Fri Jul-24-09 04:46 PM
but my favorite is Street Fighter Alpha 3.
198518, Street Fighter II and all it's ilk
Posted by spenzalii, Sat Jul-25-09 02:38 PM
SO many different versions I just lump them together. The Alpha series and SF4 duke it out for 2nd place.
198525, MvC2
Posted by PanicManic, Sat Jul-25-09 05:39 PM
198556, cuz im young SF4
Posted by great1 2k6, Sun Jul-26-09 09:23 PM
Its like the first fighting game that I took seriously and went to tournaments for it. close second might be Soul Calibur.
198576, Without spending the time with the more recent releases.
Posted by Sleepy, Mon Jul-27-09 08:51 AM
I think that SFA3 Double Dash Upper is the perhaps the best. I wish that release should hit a console soon with online play. I think that SF3 Third Strike is a better game, but I believe the Alpha lineup is stronger than the SF3 lineup. Tekken 3 & 4 are very good as well. I personally never get tired of MvC2. On the SNK side, KOF '98 may very well be my favorite there, but KOF XII looks really good.

Posted by NoDrawls McGraw, Thu Aug-06-09 02:30 PM
When them shits dropped? ? ?

Man listen.
199853, Capcom vs SNK... 1 or 2 when it comes to 2d.
Posted by spicadocious, Thu Aug-06-09 05:02 PM
I could list a few other games like any of the SF3 games (New Generation is underrated) or Fatal Fury Mark of the Wolves but hands down, the Capcom vs SNK (1 or 2) is my fav.

I got MvC2 as my first game on the DC and played it nonstop... Until someone let me borrow a cd-r of Capcom vs SNK 1. That guy never got the cd-r back and I rarely if ever played MvC2.

Best 3d fighter i'd say either Tekken 2 or 3. I'm leaning towards 3 right now though because I remember playing that with my friends unlocking all the characters and just mashing that entire summer along with a dose of triple play '99 lol.
