Well, I guess this is a little low-tech in the advent of directx 10 games and all that beautiful eye candy... but...


Fighting games! Those 2-d sidescroller games made by the Elevens which had you ramming away at a controller (or a keyboard) in order to get that elusive 59 hit combo! What are your all time favorites? Mine are Melty Blood (anyone heard of Tsukihime here?), Guilty Gear and Immaterial and Missing power. Anyone care to share their gaming experience in this field?

My favorite fighting game was Street Fighter. That ones is old school, but it was as fun as you could get at the time.

Virtua fighter was my favorite. The first time I played VF, I beat the guy who taught me within the hour. It was the only PC game I played for years. Anybody else played this one? Who's your favorite character? I usually play wolf.

Tekken 3 is probably the best fighting game I've played a lot of. Don't really get in to them anymore!

Marvel Vs Capcom. For me it’s the best fighting game ever. I remember when I was in college. I would always go to the nearest mall to play it. My favorite character is Akuma. He was one of the most famous characters of Capcom. He has appeared in different games.

My favourite was Tekken 3. That was the only one I ever got anything more than mediocre at and one of my friends and I used to fight each other in it for hours. I can't remember many of the characters anymore but I do remember that at the time the graphics were incredible but probably look horrible now.

I couldn’t agree with you more. I do love that game. I remember way back on college days. After finishing the exam, I would always go to a mall nearest to our school and play Street Fighter.

Those are all great fighting games. One I used to play that hasn't been mentioned is the first Mortal Kombat. I used to play that game for hours on end. I haven't played in a long time though.
