Super Smash Bros is my favorite

But I like some Capcom fighters a lot like Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike, and Marvel vs. Capcom 2.


Not a huge fan of the genre though.

Street Fighter is the most popular, so of course it will be voted the best. That's like asking which game is the best platformer and expecting something other than Mario to win...

This.

BEfore SFII, fighters were practically non-existant. After SFII, a massive pile of them started to show up.

The Guilty Gear series. Street Fighter may be more important and popular, but I honestly believe Guilty Gear has the better games.

Street Fighter or Guilty Gear I suppose. Street Fighter 4 (and super) both kind of suck imo though. Thankfully Blazblue showed up.

Street Fighter followed by Super Smash Bros. One's the ultimate competitive fighter, one's the ultimate party fighter.

Powerstone 2 and marvel vs capcom 2 are the best in 'cartoony' fun fight style.

Hard to pick which is the best fighting game, because theyre all really good.


Each one is AAA material.

Smash Bros easily. But if it doesn't qualify my personal favorite is Killer Instinct.

Tekken.

By the way, does anyone remember Kensei: Sacred Fist on the PS1? Could be heralded as the most underrated fighting game of all time...

Eh, I'm not gonna pick one. I have had equally great times with Tekken, Soul Calibur, and Street Fighter. I never cared for Virtua Fighter or Mortal Kombat though. Not sure why.

Right on man. I played the crap out of BR 1 and 2 back when I was a youngster. Long the Tiger was ALWAYS the character I fought with. God I miss those games. Too bad the other sequels apparently sucked.

i'm not a street fighter fan, mortal kombat was only a big deal back then because of the blood overload, and i hate tekken. i'm going with blazblue, which is practically the same as guilty gear, so i guess i'm going with guilty gear too. the VS series is a close second though. and i'm not mentioning smash bros because i know how much random whining happens when SSB is mentioned on fighting game threads.

I would have said Tekken not too long ago. Now I prefer Blazblue & even Guilty Gear.

I enjoy Street Fighter, but it seems too plain & bland for me.

Street Fighter or King of Fighters. Hard to decide between the two but those are definitely my top 2 favorites. If only a couple of my other favorite fighting games had as many sequels then those would be my favorite.

1. Street Fighter

2. Mortal Kombat

3. Soul Calibur

4. Tekken

5. Anime fighters (such as Naruto and DBZ)

6. Smash Bros.

All in my opinion anyway.

Street Fighter, obviously. Virtua Fighter demolishes Tekken. No Tekken game thus far has even topped Virtua Fighter TWO, as far as depth goes.

I'd take the vs. series.

  • Marvel versus Street Fighter
  • Marvel vs Capcom (series)
  • SNK versus Capcom (series)

One reason is because it was everybodies dream to pit Marvel characters versus Capcom (Street Fighter) characters back in the day. I remember all the hype in the arcades in the past and the large crowds it drew in. Everybody was on it. It was also tag so it was instant. I mean come on. Wolverine versus Ken. Ryu versus cyclops.

Yeah, I lost alot of quarters and tilt coins in my childhood :lol:
