Got a favorite fighting game series? If so, tell us what it is.

Oh, and there's a poll coming up.

Guilty Gear was damn cool.

Guilty Gear was damn cool.

Sorry, never heard of it. :confused:

Just because Super Smash Bros. isn't identical to all the other games out there, doesn't mean its not a fighting game.

I am the Lei master. Bow down to my ub3r sk1llz.

Do wrestling video games count as fighting games?

Yes.

Here you go. http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=3936

Yes.
Okay, then the current WWE wrestling series that's on Playstation/PS2

Grand Theft Auto, all parts.

And YES, it is a fighting game :D

I'm going to go with Street Fighter, not only because it was the first video game series ever to grab my interest, but also because of its tremendous value in highlighting the evils of yoga to the world.
For years we thought that practitioners of yoga were merely becoming healthy and agile, when they were really learning how to breath fire, kick you from across the room, and do that little floating dance when they win.

EDIT: SF was also the first game that I learned how to win in a really cheap ass fashion. Push the other guy against the border, and then have Chun Li do her lightning fast foot thing for four or five minutes. Works 90% of the time, and that lesson in developing Cheap-Ass strategies has guided me well through life.

Does hardcore bondage pr0n count as a fighting game?

Hmm, that would bring a whole new meaning to the term "button pounder."
Teehee, I said pounder.

I've always been a huge fan of the Soul series.

Although Guilty Gear Was pretty damn cool...

Moooooooooooooooooortal Koooooooooombat!

I'd have to say that its a toss up between Smash Bros and Soul Calibur...

i only play any of these games when i am drunk, and giving picachu a beating at four in morning when you cant see the control or walk properly is so satisfying... i voted smash bros.

Moooooooooooooooooortal Koooooooooombat!
I am going to have to agree, pre-Mortal Kombat I had only played games like pong and pacman (because all I had was an Atari 2600) I made friends with this guy that I had a crush on, and he invited me to his house to "play video games" while his parents were at work. well, when I got there I found out he really did want to play video games, I was so disappointed, until he turned on MK, he played by himself for a while so I could get the idea, I remember when I saw my first fatality ahhh I was in love.......;)

Tekken is the best Fighting Game.

Soul Series gets honorable mention.

In the long run, I've enjoyed the Mortal Kombat series the most. However, SSBM is probably my current single favorite fighting game.

Does Side-scrolling beat-em-ups from the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis count?

No love for Virtua Fighter except from me. That's a sad situation, indeed.

No love for Virtua Fighter except from me. That's a sad situation, indeed.Meh, Super Smash Bros. is better than any up there. It's best when you get in teams and play on a beamer with an audience watching :D

I don't remember which one we played...but I kicked AlphaGeek's ass. ahh! Good times!

Gamecube = Lamecube. :p

Well, I do use a scale from one to Nintendo to judge awesomeness, but that still doesn't affect the suckiness of the Gamecube. And who still has an N64?

Stage crew?

Why is Super Smash Bros so popular?

Anyone?

Stage crew?At my school. The Stage Crew are the "club" that puts together any technical equipment for performances or events using the aulas. They had a room which stored all the stuff and put a computer, tv, and N64 into it. I hear the responsible teachers put a stop to it after I left school... :(

Oh, I imagined roadies. RL is so disappointing. ;)

And who still has an N64?

Well, I still have a Super Nintendo... :D

That's 'cause the SNES rules (I have mine in storage; emulator + roms = space saver), but why would anyone hang on to an N64? :p

Yeah, good point.

I never actually bought a N64. Even the "best" games on it (eg. Goldeneye, Zelda) were crap compared to what was on the PC at the time...or what had been released years earlier on the SNES. Then again that applies to most consoles, so meh.

Heh. Actually, there are emulators and roms for N64 nowadays, too, of course, and I've played Zelda that way and it most certainly wasn't crap, comparably or otherwise.

I should give it a try, then. I only played it briefly at a friends house years ago. I have an emulator, but after going through a stack of games, the only one I really had fun with was Harvest Moon.

Zelda is going to have a tough time beating Secret of Mana and Terranigma for the SNES, though :p

Seeing as A Link to the Past already did that on the SNES, it doesn't have to. :p

Ooh! How appropriate.

*Holds up "Betting Office" sign.*

Ok, I got 3 to 1 on Fass to win, 6 to 1 on Kanabia to win and 7 to 1 on a draw, any takers? Betting will close in 5 minutes, your last chance to place a bet and pick a winner! (Quickly and quietly) Conditions apply, read the back of your betting slip.

Well, it's been way longer than five minutes, but I've got $5 on Kanabia. :)

Also, Tekken pwns 'em all...I still can't wrap my head around just how complex the control system in that game is (especially Tekken 5)

You could play that game every day for ten years and STILL probably not know every move!

Ooh! How appropriate.

Your choice!

My weapon is a poison barbed cock ring.

Cock rings go behind the scrotum and shaft, leaving me plenty of space to efficiently and enjoyably eradicate your tumescence.

Bukkakoken!

Virtua On in the arcades, that game was awesome (giant robots, fighting and twin joysticks!!!!).

Either that or The Way of the Fist on the C64. I never could beat that damned cow...

Secret of ManaWow, someone other than me liked this game? Awesome.

My weapon is a poison barbed cock ring.I'd recommend a "Prince Albert" (a penis piercing) instead.

MWAHAHAHA!

And I still have a chance to kill you before I pass out from blood loss. Maybe. I think I have about 90 seconds. Hey, it's just like a fighting game.

Wow, someone other than me liked this game? Awesome.

Nope, most of my friends who had played it disliked it, for some odd reason.
