| oniyide said: thats your opinion and honestly it means little. It did get decent adverstiment, what it was supposed to get the same treatment that the MAIN Street Fighter games get? Or the Marvel Vs Capcom series Marvel being THE brand in this day an age. Tatsunoko which no one in the west knows about and lucky if they eve recongnize G-Force/Gatchaman. IMHO it was kind of a weird throwaway game. They made there money since it was just an easy translation and not that expensive to make. IMHO Mvs.3 and SSS4 were better but thats just me. Not to mention that it released on a system that isnt really fighting game friendly, in terms of reception and sales. Smash being the sole exception. |
Once you start disqualifying my points on the basis of being opinions, you disqualify your points twofold for the same reason. There's no reason your opinion is somehow more valid than mine. You thinking it was a weird throwaway game "honestly means very little," because it wasn't. You thinking MvC3 and SSS4 were better "honestly means very little," because they weren't. It releasing on a system that isn't really fighting game friendly "honestly means little," because that is a complete lie that should have no factor in how it's evertized.
It got terrible advertizement for what it wasn't, a "throwaway fighting game." What it was was the best Capcom fighting game of the last decade. Faster and offering more variety of characters than and of the SS4 variations, and having far more tame mechanics and a more balanced roster than MvC3. Fighting game fans should care more about mechanics, character playstyle variety, balance, and technicality, not character roster, which TvC absolutely destroys SS4, MvC3, and SFxT in. The fact that it wasn't advertized with that in mind is a tragety and a failure on Capcom's part.
