With MvC3 out, MK9 just around the corner, and trailers for Tekken Tag 2 showing up I thought I'd take a moment to spread the love for the fighting games out there
Have you got a favorite series?
an fighter that you can own all your friends with?
lets hear it

Love fighting games, though the experience is best imo queueing up with your quarters at the arcade than with consoles... SF2, MK 1-3, and Killer Instinct were my favs as a kid... SSF4 is my favorite atm now. Really need to plunk down on a fighting stick sometime...
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

crowding around a grimy arcade cabinet and playing with a greasy stick was definitely the height of fighting games
but it wasn't until I started playing online that I learned the real intricacies of the fighting genre and at the same time I was introduce to the really obscure titles like last blade, melty blood, and guilty gear

I was playing Primal Rage on SNES the other night with a friend, had a hell of a time working out any good moves though. Watching the introduction video.. purple acid was being spit, fire balls were being shot.. best thing I was able to find was a spinning hammer fist.

Yea the deadliest warrior game is pretty damn good. Sad thing is that most people online don't know how to use the ninja, monk, and apache.
on another note mortal kombat looks like its going to be sick, can't wait for that one. I miss guilty gear also

Last night I played the MK demo with two of my buddies just beating eachothers asses. After about 3 hours we realized just how good this game was going to be when it had more than 4 characters to choose from. On a side note, I really miss the Bushido Blade games.

I'm not that heavily into fighting games but I have been known to become temporarily obsessed with a few titles. If they released a new Bushido Blade on PS3 I would close my blinds and not leave my apartment for days, especially considering that most games have online play today

an fighter that you can own all your friends with?
I used to make my friend so pissed of on Street Fighter 2. It was always a massacre. Oh the hundreds of dollars spent at the local pizza joint sucking down sodas. Many years later another friend had it and a bunch maybe 7 to 9 of us would sit around and play it on the snes. It got to a point where after I beat everyone I would just relinquish the controller. I'd let them pick my character, or only bet them with throws or jabs or whatever. Bout the same time we all got into tekken 2 I think it was. Those where good times. Last summer one of my friends brought up SF2 and called me cheap only using chun-li, I had to remind him I used everyone, chun-li was just evil to be cheap with so he only remembered that part
For some reason I could never get into MK, the timing was just so off compared to SF and that damn block button. At least I finally used to a block button now. Oh I liked that MK game that was on the game cube, that was good whatever it was called.
Soul Calibre is pretty much the newest one that I like, what ever number it is. The wife and I would get all drunk and beat each other up, great times.
