Fighting Game Central

That DS game looks neat. The UI is like CvS 2.


I would play Smash with friends with items (even if that would make some folks foam from their mouth).

Competitive Smash is mostly a collateral thing rather than the initial intent. I'm fine with Melee since the engine allows it but when I see Smash 4 and Ultimate competitive it feels a bit less entertaining.


I knew about Guilty and BlazBlue before I really got into fighting games and when I saw how metal the series was I always felt like Strive could've been a different series because they dropped a bit of that "hardcore" feeling in the OST and art style.

Just look at these:

Strive also have a de-saturated look while Xrd and before felt very colourful.

Oh yeah, good analogy, it does remind of CvS2!

Idk, I can see why Ultimate became competitive. Sm4sh not so much, and Brawl was definitely NOT meant as that considering the tripping gimmick (and yeah, I know that's where Project M comes out).

Very cool facts about Guilty and BlazBlue, I can only say to believe you since I'm no purist of either of those series.

I love Marvel vs Capcom and Soulcalibur the most. I hope the next MvC goes back to a 2D fighter.

This has been somewhat viral in FGC circles lately.

I'm more of a Burger King kind of guy just because it's walking distance from our house. I do feel strangely weirded out hearing Akuma sing.

I need to get into the Marvel games.

Starting with Children of the Atom then Marvel SH then X-Men vs SF then the two MvC.

I don't vibe with 3 nor Infinite sadly.


2D is too expensive and too niche sadly. KoF 12/13 almost killed SNK a second time.

I already struggled as Ky vs Sol in GGX.

I'm fearing about O.Sol in AC...

Btw, are you playing on the Steam release?

Me too, Dizzy felt like nothing in comparison

Speaking of Dizzy, I largely prefer her theme from X over X2/XX for some reasons (mainly because of the intro). I think that while GGX is good in its own right the game felt more like a prototype for X2 (or at least a draft like Super SFII before X GMC/Super Turbo became the concretised game).

Shame how on Steam you cannot have any of X' releases since X2 and Accent Core are basically fulfilling the spot.

Need me a Steam release of Jojo Heritage with online matchmaking.

I feel they would slap that PS3/Xbox 360 JoJo HD Ver. as a direct port which was...uh, not that great. The filter made it look hideous. The Dreamcast version was definitely the best since it had both versions of the 2 arcade variants.

Especially with Rollback.

What about the PS3 DarkStalkers?

But I agree that many HD versions are eh.

There was a DarkStalkers HD? lol
I mean, wouldn't surprise me, I think I actually tried some demos of those fighting games but all I remember was how low effort they were (I think I mainly remember a SF III one but I can be wrong).

Resurrection on the PSN and XBLA.

Tekken 3 is on PS Plus now about time.

Tekken 3 is on PS Plus now about time.

I wish they could finally release all the previous Tekken pre-7 on Steam at this point. Also Revolution for shit and giggles.

The original Trilogy was included in 5 right?

But I agree, I'd buy 4.

 

[King Torro]

I think it's the Arcade modes of 1, 2 and 3. So Tekken 3 played through Tekken 5 doesn't have the side-scroller BMUP mode or Tekken Ball both of which are very fun game modes.

Having Tekken 5, 6 and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 on Steam and modern consoles would be really nice for sure.

 

[solnK!]

Playing Soul Calibur II rn, love how fast and fun the battles are.

I recently got into JJBA: HFTF and JJBA: All star Battle.
But i'm mainly into street fighter, especially Street fighter 3 3rd strike.

 

[Doomsday519]

Playing Tekken 6 on the PSP. Patiently waiting on that new Virtua Fighter game. Virtua Fighter 2 is the first fighting game I ever played.

Just for a story adaptation, but you know by that I meant having the original games (just like Mortal Kombat is doing again with the new Legacy Kollection). I do have 1 and 2 perfectly functional on PS1, but Tekken 3's disc unfortunately is ruined. It sucks since I have so many cool memories and having a version with rollback and everything would be amazing.
