What is your favorite fighting game?
| Soul Calibur, but having heard nothing about a new iteration recently, I can only assume it's dead. Guilty Gear for me |
 |
| Used to be Tekken, now it's Street Fighter. Might become Tekken again once 7 drops, who knows. |
| I'm fiending SO hard for Tekken 7 to come out.. over the past year MKX was my go-to I guess. When I was younger I was all about Tekken 3 and MvC2 though... Bloody Roar... Rival Schools. MAKE A NEW RIVAL SCHOOLS DAMMIT! |
 |
| My go-to fighting games has always been the Tekken series, Tekken 1&3 back as a kid and Tekken 6 more recently, and most likely 7 whenever it drops |
 |
| Smash bros was always a go-to fighting game for me and my friends. "FIGHT ME, FINAL DESTINATION, NO ITEMS, OUR BEST CHARCTERS, GO!!" |
 |
| Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom Other fighting games make me bored easily. |
 |
| 1v1 me on Dragon Ball Z BT3, OP. ;) |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| I didn't really like fighting games at first, since my brother used to beat me all the time in them. But as I learned about techniques, frame data, priority, and other stuff, I became more interested in them. At first it was Killer Instinct, but I found Tekken to be a little more fun. But I kind of stopped playing Tekken due to busy schedules and such, so now today my go-to fighting game is Smash 4 (3DS). It's accessible, convenient, and plenty of fun. I'm no expert, but I try... |
 |
| Blazblue, has a really unique combat system and actually has a story worth caring about. |
 |
| melee, snk vs capcom, and mortal kombat are the only ones i don't get bored of. |
 Oh maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns or our nothing places But we're trash, you and me We're the litter on the breeze We're the lovers on the streets Just trash, me and you It's in everything we do It's in everything we do |
| Smash has a low barrier to entry and it support more than two players so I tend to play that with people who are into Smash or aren't into Smash.... That said... Street Fighter is my main fighting game and I dedicate myself into playing Street Fighter. Unfortunately... I don't like Street Fighter V enough to buy it yet. The game has 8 frames of lag and the meta feel limiting to me in comparison to other fighting games. I love Ultra Street Fighter IV, but I make time for the following. Guilty Gear Franchise Melty Blood King of Fighters - 2002 is my personal favorite Under Night In Birth - I'm interested, will buy once out on Steam Arcana Heart, Blazblue, Last Blade 2, Garou Mark of the Wolves, Capcom vs SNK 2 are also quite fun. not my main focus, but I would put more time into them. 3D fighters... Virtua Fighter isn't bad. I also like Soul Calibur 2. |

I know where you're going with this.... professional melee breaks fingers. The wombo combo. Wave dashing. The game is more "hype" to watch and play. A more technical game. However.... can we objectively say that the top Smash 4 players are inferior to the Melee gods because they aren't playing melee? Zero has had one of the most dominant runs in fighting game history. Mew2King is pretty darn good at Smash 4 and Melee. Hungry Box tries to play Smash 4 competitively and doesn't get very far. You have Zero who's good at Brawl and Smash 4 but doesn't do well in melee. They're different games. I wouldn't say melee wins just because of the advanced mechanics that cater towards "pro" gamers or that it's more exciting to watch. Smash 4 wore me about because of the camping nature, but I still have a blast playing it with friends. I don't even play melee anymore. If I want melee I go to Project M. I tend to do Smash 4 with the casual people and Project M with core Smash people. Getting more casual isn't even a bad thing per say. KoF, Street Fighter, and Guilty Gear are lowering execution and combo reliance. Barrier to entry for me means the ability to pick up and play. The Smash series is easy to pick up and play. I'm not talking to get good. I'm talking you can get people to play the game and continue playing it even if they don't want to go beyond the usage of items or whatever. You try that with a traditional fighting game and you'll get bad results. Even if they end up taking a win off you, it's really hard to keep them motivated to play you again and again. 3D fighters have a easier time getting casuals to play because they have some cheap "button mashy" style characters, but the gimmick quickly falls flat once the person who's competent exposes the gimmick and refuses to let the person slowly see results. Go into Smash and you've got enough options to where someone competent l can still have fun with people who never played Smash before. |

| Skullgirls is the best fighting game ever made and I'll defend that to my death. If I start to play that game an entire day can go by just like that. It has the best balance, all characters and teams of any size are viable at high level play, best training mode, the mechanics rewards good decisions, no unblockables, no touch-of-deaths, no infinites and no bullshit. That being said I've been playing a lot of Guilty Gear and 3rd Strike lately. These games are kinda busted in comparison to SG, but they are fun. Just wanna get good at them. |

I feel the same about Skull girls, really good balance and the movement in it feels good for a fighting game. only problem i have with it is the character designs. theres probably only 2 characters in the game i can play as without feeling like a gay fag. i wish they fixed the roster |
| I started with Street Fighter II and thoroughly enjoyed Street Fighter IV, so I'll always be a fan of Streetfighter. Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur are also great. |
| Tekken is my favorite, I've been playing it since I was a kid. Injustice is really fun, too. |
 |
| Voted for Tekken, but Smash Bros is also a solid franchise as far as I'm concerned. |
| im no gamer but i was addicted to Marvel vs Capcom 1 on the PS1 and Marvel vs Capcom 2 on the PS2 "Behold! Optic Blast" |
| I'll vote for Super Smash Bros., but mostly because of Melee. Brawl kind of sucked outside of playing the story for the first time, and SSB3DS was good, but still inferior to Melee. I generally suck with the more traditional fighting games, but despite that, I loved Soul Calibur II on the Gamecube. If SSBM wasn't so damn good, I'd vote Dead or Alive, because they recently released a Fairy Tail DLC pack, lol. |
| The Budokai series. |
 |
| All about the Pokken Tournament bruh. |
“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self. Therefore, trust the physician and drink his remedy in silence and tranquility.” |
| street fighter 4, hey @Ryou I have pokken tournament too but I suck at it ok guys i want your opinion what do you think about 3DS controls for street fighter 4 i can't help it but my hands keep slipping and they hurt, i think maybe i'm playing way too intense or something or the 3DS has shit controls |
| Virtua Fighter. Best fighting game franchise ever. I hate how some people claim it's a Tekken rip off, when the first Virtua Fighter came out before the first Tekken -.- My favourite one is Virtua Fighter Anniversary Edition. It's basically a demake of VF4. It has the same graphics and music as VF1, but the fighting mechanics and character roster from VF4. Street Fighter is great too. I like it almost as much as VF. Street Fighter 3 is my favourite. Haven't played 5, I heard it sucks? Smash Bros. I suck at it, but I still like it for some reason? Probably because I'm a Nintendo fanboy |
| for its easiness and simplicity: Smash I do like the older SNES fighters a lot more when I can get people to play with. |
 |
| I play mainly Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct, Injustice and SoulCalibur but I know how to play Dead or Alive, Tekken, King of Fighters, Virtua Fighter and Street Fighter. If anyone on Xbox One wants games in Mortal Kombat X or Killer Instinct add me: C88 ExoticAbuse I use: Mortal Kombat X: Takeda (Lasher & Shirai Ryu), Scorpion (Ninjutsu), Mileena (Piercing), Cassie Cage (Brawler) and Sonya Blade (Special Forces). Killer Instinct: Sadira, Jago, Orchid and Maya. |

You're totally missing out. "Fixing" the roster is probably never going to happen (unless they get picked up for a proper sequel). The devs worked for no payment to finish the DLC and now are working on a new RPG tittle. Speaking of DLC, have you seen the final cast? There might be someone there for you. Anyway, 2 characters are more than enough. I play that game since it came out on PC 3 years a go, and I've only played the same 3 char team since. |
| Smash is literally the only one I ever play. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| For classics - DoA, Current - Brawlhalla ^^ |
| Street Fighter and, in second position, Tekken. |
| It was SFV, but it's just so bland in contrast to USFIV and Third Strike (Among other issues). Planning to try out the new KoF or Tekken on release now. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Street Fighter V for the girls I don't actually play fighting games though. |
| I'll destroy anyone in DOA any iteration. |
 |
| My go to fighting game is ... UFC 3. |
| I've only ever really played SSB from those listed so guess I'm going with that one lol. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |

I remember seeing Maximilian Dood playing it on his channel once and I thought it was amazing looking. I had to add it to the poll. If you haven't played it yet I recommend you give it a shot. It's usually really cheap, has one of the best tutorials and (I forgot to put it on the post) has the best netcode I've ever seen. |
| Does dynasty warriors count? :P |
 The peasant is bound by the king. The king is bound by the peasants and their kingdom. But the Viking is bound to nothing but themselves. |
| At the arcade: Garou: Mark of the Wolves At home: Capcom vs. SNK 2 |
 |
| Melty Blood all day every day. |
 Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur. |
| Smash bros melee is probably the only fighting game i can play for hours. The movement just feels so nice. |
