Like I said eariler, I love button mashers. They think they can win every time, when the fact of the matter is I eat them up and spit them out every time.

I nominate that this thread title be changed to the "Fighting Game Wang-Waving Thread."

Done.

Anyone like guilty gear? I never really got into it, thought it felt like a rehash of sf, but I personally like SF better.

I got Guilty Gear XX #reload or whatever for the Xbox back when it came out. Game kicked my ass up and down. It just didn't click with me for some reason. I played Ky for the brief stint I had with it, but I just wasn't getting it. Dunno. I actually held my own online, but the problem with that is -no one- played online.

Single player kicked my ass. Fuck I-No.

Same thing happened to me and Smash Brothers. I get really good and then people just aren't into Smash anymore. What gives.

I have a hard time labelling Smash Bros. as a true fighter, but part of that is having a fighting game purist rant and rave about it on gamespot for three years.

Cool guy, though.

Well, regardless if you call it a true fighting game or not, it is a fighting game, and playing 1 on 1 with no items...yeah.

Plus, Smash Brothers is one of the most technically demanding fighting games I've played. Always pressing SOME button or another at any given time, but not button mashing.

Yeah, I-No in GG XX is kind of like Akuma in the first SF he appeared in. Massievly broken and such.

I mean, the characters are totally cool, but it just doesn't feel -right-, y'know?

Tekken>soul Calibur>street fighter. Tekken is my favourite game next to guitar hero!
