First U.S. SF IV Arcade Machine!

[Chuy Savedra]

K.I. is dam good but nowhere near the level of the best SF

And in your opinion what is the best SF? if you say II then i'm sorry, but KI shits on it.

 

[smittycal]

I wish that the D&B around here would get some decent fighting games period. They only have shooter games and sport games. My only hope to see SF4 in the arcade mall down the street. Hopefully they'll get it but I'm not holding my breath

 

[Chuy Savedra]

3rd Strike is the best. Duh! 2 is simply fireball spam. Still fun though.

3rd strike is good, but not better than KI Gold. that's on another level.

 

[Premo]

u may have some special connection with KI from when u were growing up , as i do to SSF2T . i know cats slightly younger than me with that connection to SF3 . i mean they still play those games in the EVO tournaments , they dont play KI tho . i think thats a testament to its longevity and how well balanced of a game it is compared to other fighters

i rememeber cutting school to hit the laundromat and spend all day playin KI .. my boy would get drunk and do ultra combos rolllin around on the grass outside and shit like tj combo Lol

there is a fluidity to SF games that KI never achived. everything is so robotic and stiff in KI. thats what alwasy turned me off too it,character animation is horrible

 

[Jake]

oh and its my humble opinion that street fighter 3 third strike is the best 2-d game fighter ever made. one of the most balanced fighters ever

 

[Premo]

robotic like a mufucka

 

[kayvee]

lmao@killer instinct

~k.

 

[Premo]

i mean youd have to be born 88 or up to say something so outlandish

 

[Chuy Savedra]

Ok I'll admit that I'm being a bit nostalgic with my choice of game. The KI series was good to me for various reasons. and it is clear that SF is the better series. But a game that gives SF a run for its money is the KOF series. that by all is MY favorite fighting game with no nostalgic memories period. And you can't argue with that logic.

you're right,i cant really argue with that. the KOF series is dope as fuck. probably played kof 2000 and 2001 one just as much as third strike lately

Exactly. The only time I bring back out my ps2 is when I'm gonna play KOF '94 Re-bout, KOF 2000/2001, KOF 2002/2003 (although I don't really dig KOF 2003's new style as much as 2002) and Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, amongst a couple other games.

 

[Premo]

yup i still rock KOF95 , 99 and 2002 on dreamcast

 

[RAVAGE]

IMO SF Alpha 3 was the best SF game. I never did like SF3

 

[Masked Lemon]

I never liked the KOF series.


I really never liked any of the SNK fighting games, to be honest.


I didn't like SF3 that much either, though. By that time I was done with fighting games... I am looking forward to SF4, but not like I was for stuff like MK2 or SSF2.

 

[Jake]

GGXXAC or GGXXS = Best 2D fighting game.

Jake, don't get me wrong but how can you possible say that 3rd Strike is one of the most balanced games? It's insanely unbalanced. It's as bad as MvC2. I mean like less than half the cast is even usable at high level.

"insanely"? come on now.im not trying to say its prefectly balanced,no fighting game is. with the sytems it has in place (EX,parry,etc) it evens the playing field alot. im not tryin to hold it to the standards that games like GG have but it is still more balanced then most

i watch tons of tourney vids online and honestly see a wide range of character usage as far as i am concerned (some guy won in japan with Q for christs sake).

saying its a bad as MvsC which is the epitome of having broken chars. (viper beam anyone?) is a little much. third strike might be imbalanced but its doesnt have broken chars

i dont disagree with you,there is a slight imbalance,but i wont agree that its to the degree that you seem to think it is. most balance issues were tweaked for console version. the majority of complaints come from arcade versions.

The announcer was annoying as fuck. therefore SF III is the clear winner.

 

[Chuy Savedra]

I actually haven't. for some reason it kinda reminds me of that Gundam game back in the day. Is it any good?

 

[Chuy Savedra]

Just checked 'em out. Looks like a good game. I think i'll rent it or somethin'. Combos look insane though.

 

[Rasan]

i'm not trying to get invloved in the guilty gear/sf debate, but i have to say this...
killer instinct? fuck no!

mortal kombat >>>> killer instinct

street fighter series >>> any fighting game imo/
