Tekken or SSB. I like SC but I can button mash and win easily....

 

I can guard impact and win easily against button mashers...

that said I think in VF there is still a bit more skill involved than in SC.

now I'm curious, which move in SC can you repeat all the time and win (against someone who actually has a bit of knowlegde about the game) ?

Virtua Fighter, Street Fighter and Smash Bros.

I don't like tekken as much anymore (2 was my favourite), it got really cheap after that and for those who say Tekken requires as much skill as VF or Street Fighter play someone who's good at either of those 2 series and you'll see skill is more then spamming the same 4 combo's repeatedly. I also find very few people step outside of the uber cheap/overpowered fighters in Tekken at the arcade. That drains the fun because either:

a) You always get done in for not using a similarly cheap character

OR

b) you completely obliterate them because you've played long enough to know what 3 or 4 combo's every person that users that character will use and you know how to counter them.
