the only thing about cammy is that her boobs are very high up on her torso, the look kinda like boob shaped pecks, rather than fat hanging from the pecks, but whatever they are still alot nicer than some of the deformed anime breasts ive seen before.

Doesn't matter. It was still a female character. It was actually a wonderful discourse on how sexist the brain is.

Besides, even back in the late 80's that was well known. The JUSTIN BAILEY password was probably the most well known/popular password of the time.

That's what makes her look a bit like a man.
I know what you're talking about with the deformed anime characters.

Yeah, but you only think that because you never liked Street Fighter that much anyway. If you really liked Street Fighter 2 than you would almost definitely think Street Fighter 4 is as awesome as I do.

I think Tekken is the same game sequel after sequel, even more so than Street Fighter. But if you like Tekken you probably don't want change. I don't like Tekken. I played a lot of 3 as a child with friends, and I played Tekken 6 in the arcades in Japan. I think those are the only 2 Tekken games I have played.

It's probably also notable that I don't like Soul Caliber very much, I don't like Dead Or Alive, I don't like Virtua Fighter...Basically I like Street Fighter, SamSho, Darkstalkers, Marvel Vs. Capcom...I think I like Melty Blood but haven't gotten to play it much.

Also, what Street Fighter characters do you not like? I think Vega is lame looking, but awesome to play as. Other than him I don't think there are any characters in SF4 that I don't like.

-looks around then sighs- I like a ton of fighters for different reasons. SF has ken and akuma.
Tekken has GON
soulcaliber has seigfried/nightmare and Taki
guilty gear I have never played
Mortal kombat had liu kang and Raiden
So im even for all of those.
My primary faveorites though are Nightwarriors: darkstalkers revenge and Marvel super heroes.
Nightwarriers had a huge cast of awesome characters. Felicia, morrigan, tailbane, demitri, and donovan.
Marvel has spider man, psylock,wolvy,shuma gorath, and doctor doom.
each game has cheap characters and good characters. when I find the one I figure out, I play that one.

Super smash bros is my third fave, but its more party game than fighter. (Zero suit samus, Link, Marth, and Ike RULE LOL)

If you want to vote company wise Capcom wins. Hell soon it iwll have both versions of Zero in fighting game form ^^. (one in an onimusha fighter, the other in the upcoming Capcom vs tatsu whatever)

**Kugyince** · 01-03-2010, 10:47 AM

Darkstalkers was pretty cool.

Up until Tekken1 came out I loved SF and played it a lot. I played other fighting games but I always went back to SF. I like it enough to play it with friends but I wouldn't buy it. Like I said somewhere else on the site, I had high hopes for the new SF but it just let me down. It looks awesome and it does play well but the overall game just didn't agree with me and I didn't enjoy it like I used to.

All fighting games stay pretty much the same. I don't think Tekken or SF changed enough to compare them really. Guile still has like 2 moves and Heihachi is still a beast.

I'm not that into Soul Caliber really. I like a few characters but the gameplay bores me after a while.
I agree about DOA, that game is just lame eye candy that just happens to be a fighting game. The only cool thing is the drunken boxing character. I don't like VF much but it was cool back in the day.
Darkstalkers is cool but MvsC is just awesome.

Rufus, Crimson Viper, Seth, Rose are the characters I don't like in SF4. It doesn't really matter though, everyone will have different opinions about characters. I just didn't like playing the game.

Btw the first 2-3 Bloody Roar games are better than all these games we're talking about. Yeah, really.

**Belmontzar** · 01-04-2010, 02:59 AM

Gotta disagree there.. I had alot of fun with the doa games. MVC2 is a game I desperately want after I played it once or twice on an arcade cabinet. Heck that's what reintroduced me to the SF crew and made me come and play SF here on RU. Virtual fighter was also fun, except for the fact that it take so long to recover from attacks.. even on low difficulty the computer could string a series of attacks and take out nearly all your health. I still got pounded, even when I used cheats and maxed out my health and tried.. (Akira is bloody evil..)

havnet played any of the bloody roar games yet so no opinion on those..

**Dudebro** · 01-04-2010, 03:20 AM

I had fun with DOA too but it just didn't hold my attention long.

If you wanna get MvsC2 it's downloadable on Xbox360 if you got one of those.

We have the Arcade version of Bloody Roar on RU but it's called Beastorizer-
Retro Uprising - Arcade - Beastorizer
It's cool but it's kinda ugly because it's dated graphics. I just love the concept. It's a standard fighting game but you can turn into a beast at will. In beast mode you are improved and you get new moves. Great game.

**TrakMastaTom** · 01-04-2010, 12:05 PM

I liked Bloody Roar when it came out. I don't know if I would still like it.

I thought C. Viper and Rose were cool characters, and I liked Rufus after I learned to use him. He still looks like an idiot, but he's fun to play as.

I have friends who love Street Fighter and played the new one a couple times and decided they hated it. Now they play it all the time. It just took some getting used to I think, maybe you are in the same boat?

Maybe not. But I love Street Fighter 2/Alpha 3/Third Strike/4.

It kind of reminds me of the earlier Tekken games.

Maybe but I doubt I'll be playing SF anytime soon when I have Tekken and I love it. Maybe once I burn out on it, usually takes me about a month.

Like the earlier Tekkens but with BEAST MODE!

yeah but we plan to get a ps3... so.. oh well. I hope I figure out away to play it at some point without shelling out tons of cash...

Sorry for that, but I had to go there.

Super Smash Bros. tops the fighting game genre.

It's good, but I have a hard time taking it seriously. It is more focused on using items laying around, than being able to use good combos, the goal is just 'knock some dude off of a cliff' not 'Inflict massive damage'

You make a good point, but the win still ultimately comes down to knocking people off the edge.

For most modes yeah, but for a few others, you need to deal with coin collecting or hit points. My favorite mode personally is endurance. "fight till you kill your enemy." Especially for fun sword duels.
[and reenacting boss fights like playing link vs dark link in brawl XD]

Smash bros brings up an interesting thought I had a while ago.. about how many games are mostly just for game fans.

I mean in all honesty, who in there right mind would make a castlevania or a final fantasy fighting game? I love the ideas because im a fan but thinking logically, what would be the point? Outside of kingdom hearts (though it also fits here sort of) why in the world would cloud fight squall?
Simon Belmont, has no reason to fight alucard.
NOW I hear fo a tales of fighting game on the way. Tales Of Vs. Not kidding! google it! You see videos of assorted Tales of heroes going toe to toe!
As much as I loved it when I played it, I think the trend of mixxing things that shouldn't really mix, or putting RPG and platform characters into fighting games, started thanks to the Capcom Vs series. Where they decided to take thier many game series, and mash them together into one game. So that Ryu could pound spider man, or stuff like that. I am now seeing fights that would only be seen in mugen videos, beoming reality. x era Zero can offically punch Ryu in the face.

Too be honest I like the games, but wonder if, over all, they are a good idea... I used to think it was impossible, but with all the combinations and buying outs lately.. I wont be surprised to see a Mega mugen like fighting game thats actually amde by capcom.
I gotta admit.. the idea of scorpion frying Jigglypuff is amusing though..

**samejamesbond** · 01-06-2010, 08:21 AM

Dissidia rocks, Cloud and Squall would fight to see who's stronger. (It's obviously Squall.)

Smash Bros is not even comparable to "traditional" 1v1 fighting games. I like it, but it isn't the same kind of game.

100% agree. you don't even have to put in a certain movement to use their moves. it's just grab the smash ball and hit a button, and whamo.

Which is exactly why it is not on the poll.
