The best fighting game

[Neverfate]

Well I'm not usre if 2D and 3D games are comparable, but my vote goes to Guilty Gear series. Even if you say it's not the best 2D fighter, you at least have to admit that the soundtrack to the games are always great.

Tekken doesn't require finesse. It only requires memorization of extremely long combos.

Yeah, it hard to remember all of that. I like playing that because, it actually takes skillz.

 

[Square Ninja]

Memorization=\=skill

 

[var1ables]

Square, compared to all the other games listed it is the only one where you need to learn combos and grabs to win in the fights, the others you just have to button mash.Memorization you can do but how did you find all those uber-long combos, I had to find them when I played through the game.

In tekken 2 i actually destroyed a controller because of the final boss on hard, that was when i realized i shouldn't button mash.

 

[Square Ninja]

Have you ever played Guilty Gear?

 

[var1ables]

yeah i just botton mashed it and won every fight.

 

[squall leonheart]

You can get through that game button mashing.....but not against other people...-_-

 

[var1ables]

you'd be surprised...

 

[Square Ninja]

You do realize that the button-mashing arguement can be made against nearly every fighting game, right? Bushido Blade and its spiritual successors are the only exceptions of sorts that I can think of.

wasnt bushido blade made by se? i hated it a little because if someone hitted you on your legs your gonna have to crawl or if someone hit your arms then your gonna have to use the other one

 

[Square Ninja]

...so you hated it because it did exactly what it set out to do?

I would suggest the Tekken series, to me personally, it is the most pwning game over the rest.

 

[Machinany Gun]

I have played a number of the games listed and also DOA, which wasn't listed. I chose Soul Calibur personally since i enjoy it much more than any other series. But thats my personal preference. I'd like to try that Bushido blade and the guilty gear games also, just to see what they're like.

Dead or Alive seriously needs to be put on the list. I guess out of the ones on there, I'd say Mortal Kombat 1- 3.
