non-traditional. Traditional fighters suck all the fun out of everything.

 

 

Ahhh don't get pissed because you don't like games that demand some sort of skill games. Non-traditional fighters are serious button mashers. Traditional is fun for moderates and advanced fighter fans win or lose, because they like the challenge.

 

Its actually the other way around. Traditional fighters have a lower skill difference because of the limit to set combos and auto-lock. Whereas a game like melee or brawl have things thrown in that effect gameplay such as: use of staging (what shape the ledges are can affect your gameplay and amount of platforms), spacing, DI reading (are they going to go left or right?) and the free ability to make combos yourself without there being set in stone ones.

Brawl has no skill when compared to traditional fighters.

I don't like fighters, the only one I liked was Smash Melee. Memorizing button combinations is boring and more like learning vocabulary.

Traditional 2D Fighters. I love street fighter II.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

My favorite fighter was the Bushido Blade series b4 Master of bushido... i hate fighters with lifebars especially the ones with weapons.... an axe to the face =/= 1/4 of life... i can deal with brawlers like SF4 though. < in my mind i consider any fist fighting game a brawler :X

Edit Thats a bit of a strange thing that fighters w/ lifebars are considered traditional and more realistic (fighter sim if you will) are considered non traditional...

I loved Bushido Blade myself, but the biggest problem with videogames the people who play them, is the length which creates value in a match. Take mainstream music for instance, in the way that most people cannot appreciate music over 4-5 minutes in duration. This is why they make song 3-4 minutes, instead of 7-10 so the artist can true their true genius and musical realism. With fighting they want the match to be long and drawn out as not to disrupt the value of the character, having close and climactic matches. Take multiple matches into account, where you one person wins another match....one might assume the person should be dead, when in truth it really means they were knocked down long enough, but get up for the next phase of battle. In your favorite cartoons, shows or movies, how long did your favorite fights take? 2-3 minutes tops?....see what I mean now?

 What do you consider Battle Arena Toshinden or Samurai Showdown to be, rather than Traditional? It's traditional, but Soul Calibur gives you full circling ability.
