Forums - Gaming - Best fighting game this gen your OP

My point with this whole rant was that, you can make brawl into a "fighter" but it isn't that at its very core, it is a multi player beat em up. You can also make a lot of games into a "fighter" if you really want, like GTA4, now its no where as fun as brawl. But i still made my point and therefore i refuse to call it a fighter.

Here's a way to end this!

From Wiki:

"Super Smash Bros., known in Japan as Nintendo All Star! Dairantō Smash Brothers (ニンテンドーオールスター!大乱闘スマッシュブラ ザーズ Nintendō Ōru Sutā! Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu?, "Dairantō" meaning "Great Melee"), is a fighting game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64."

A game where the point is to fight each other, test each others skill in both attack and defense, and the fact that there actually are mechanics to balance all characters.  SSB has always been a newer take on fighting games, it's quite possibly the most cusomizable fighter out there on consoles, you can have any number of rule sets, various ways of fighting each other, etc.  But the fact remains that its a fighting game, you have your rounds, you have your life bar, you have various ways of killing each other, there's a combo system, there's specials, and there's a whole meta-game that you have to learn to even be able to compete with tournament players so it must take some sort of skill and knowledge to do this.

Your argument would work better against something like the Naruto Ultimate Ninja series but even then Naruto is a fighter as well, there's not much anyone can do or say that changes fact...

life gauge in a bar form and rounds DOES NOT define a fighter. that has never been a rule. its just the way they have all been made. fighters can come in many shapes and forms. i just think u are butt hurt that more people on this thread support brawl than w/e fighter you like.

And how many of those actually own a 360 or a ps3 or at least have played enough hours at friend's house, so that they can say that they prefer brawl over tekken 6 or VF? I played Braw a few times, but not enough to know whether it's great or not, so I can't be certain (although my friends who own the game think it's awesome). It's only natural for wii owner to vote for Brawl. I think it would be more fair to ask ps3 and 360 owners which is the better fighting game between Tekken 6 and VF, since none of them is an exclusive (and we know fanboys tend to choose exclusive titles).

Killer Instinct

Saturday Night Slam Masters(anybody remember this badass game or am i too old?)

Mortal kombat 2

Starwars: masters(worst fighting game ive EVER played)

Virtua Fighter 2

SSB64

Melee

Brawl

Streetfighter 2 turbo

Killer instinct gold

Soul Calibur 2

Tekken tag

MvsC2

Cvs Snk2 :eo

I can keep on listing the fighters ive played in depth but whats the use?

 

I have played fighting games since i was a just a child in the SNES era. Ive had my fair share of fighter exp and i can GUARANTEE that brawl is top 2 best fighters of this Gen(unless mvc3 does amazing things) and you dont need to be a wii owner to accept this. In fact, i would even consider some games ive listed above better than current gen fights like soulcal 4 and tekken 6 and Doa4. No offense to anybody but tekken started to suck major ass after tekkan tag and solcal went to shit after 2. The only other TRULY good fighter this gen(imo of course) is SSF4.

 

 

 

 




Jump! Ultimate Stars

Dissidia: Final Fantasy

Actually best fighting game ever IMO. Only one to hold my attention without getting bored after an hour.
