The best fighting game?

[DarkFlames]

I play the N64 MK almost every day so.. yeah..

[Steve Fox]

Tekken all the way baby

[Dingus-Online]

Pacuzzz.. Mk2 is the best fighting game out there. Not because of the graphics. Not because of the gameplay. It's because of Raiden's cheap torpedo spinny move thingy that is unblockable

LISTEN!!!! guys, guys, this is the end all to this argument. now there are games that come close to making that list but here are the heavy hitters(i might have missed one or 2 games)


virtua fighter series
street fighter III
marvel vs cap2 (svc chaos was close but sloppy,cap vs snk is more polished)
soulcaliber series(have you even been to a sc tourny?)
garou/KOF
ultimate mortal kombat3
DOA


really who plays tekken competetivly?(rhetorical)

[Scratched]

i like fight night round three cause unlike mortal combat and stuff you get to start a career and work your way up while improving your guy.

Tekken 5 and series are great too play.
Mortal Kombat for SNES was the shizerbucket, I loved it.
If only I had my SNES again....*sigh*

[navyboy]

not a fighting games fan, the only one ive played around a bit with is tekken. my friends complain that its way too slow (the action) and i agree. they prefer soul calibur. I really like dragon ball z for its ultra fast play but i suck at it.

[ModernCombat]

I think it would kinda depend. If you want a realistic feeling, then I would say Fight Night. But, Soul Caliber is a great game. I enjoyed the series. Mortal Kombat is another great series. I used to own it for the Playstation 2 and loved it. Very great game to play, and lots of unlockables(NotSureAboutTheNewOne)

[The mOBSCENE]

Soul Caliber is the perfect game for playing with large groups of people or at parties because it might be the first time playing for a lot of people and Soul Caliber's easy and basic fighting design makes it a little more evened out.

When you're playing people who know what they're doing, I enjoy Tekken Tag and Tekken 5 a whole lot more. Requires more skill, timing, memory, and some more skill to properly play and master this game. It's just an awesome game but bringing this back to what I said in the first paragraph, it's too complex for rookies.

[Popup of Death]

I'd have to say Tekken 3. It has a wide variety of characters, nice amount of unlockables, and my now-favourite character, Eddy Gordo. Now he's what you call a button masher.
