The Fight Lights Out is the best fighting game ever.

Why? because its actual fighting, no buttons required.

You're wrong. But instead of explaining why, I'll let the masses of Street Fighter fanboys explain. They'll be here shortly.

Did this game get a 3.5

I dont think we need SF fanboys to explain why it's bad.

Okay, I'll humour you.

Without an actual controller, you can't do such things as: negative edging, other high level techniques such as plinking, and doing certain attacks would either be too easy (resulting in a rather broken-in-a-bad-way type of game) or be impossible.

You won't be able to have the pacing of a fighting game such as, say, Guilty Gear, and mechanics in said game would be rather hard to do, such as bursting for instance.

Because those would count as basic moves. Blocking as a high level attack? Wut?

Leveling up to know someone out? again, Wut?

Sure, I guess dodging could count as a special move, but on the original topic, it just couldn't compete with other fighters. Espcially with the likes of Hnk, Guilty Gear and King of Fighters. In that sense it still lacks a tremendous amount.

And competition wise, I dont see it going anywhere.

Motioned controlled fighting games simply lack the precision or speed to accurately recreate a thrilling fighting experience.

Join a boxing/martial art class for a much better experience. Or if you're anti-social, get a cheapo punching bag and wail on it from the comfort of your own home. Just don't waste money on stupid fighting games for Kinect, Move, or the Wii...

[QUOTE="PSNIDCiocio313"] why not pretend, blocking is your high level attack as well as leveling up to knock someone out with one punch, and fainting, bobbing and weaving as your special attacks?PSNIDCiocio313

If your going to say "which one is better is up to you" don't start up a thread called "The Fight Lights Out is the best fighting game ever."

And don't say "button based" fighting games have button mashing as a bread n' butter. You really don't mash unless a move calls for it, or its for some other requirement.

And if you don't want them compared, don't say

"its actual fighting nio buttons required

that fact alone blows away all the competition"

saying it "blows away all the competition" puts it up for comparison.

Why? because its actual fighting, no buttons required.

I would rather be pressing buttons than to punch at nothing in the air looking like some guy escaped from a mental hospital.funsohng

It's not the best fighting game ever but it does have the most original name I've ever heard.
