No fighting game in the history could follow up to the graphical, gameplay and combo standards of the tekken series. Tekken 6 BR is by far the best fighting game I have ever played in my life.

Other such fight games (*cough* street fighter *cough*) are just upgrades of the old kung fu game where you only have punch, kick and jump. (with super unfair and massively dramatic special attacks)

Hey, I thought it was funny too. It’s just I can use the joke myself.

It’s funny that you said “Mortal Kombat (they got on their own ridiculous naming kick there at the end)”. The end? You mean the end of the trilogy when they had Ultimate MK, MK Trilogy, etc? See, that’s the part I consider the end of the series, tho I know there was a MK 4, MK Deadly Aliance, MK Tournament edition, Deception, Unchained, Armagadeon, Vs DC… hmm, seems once they went ridiculous they didn’t go back. At least Street Fighter had the good sense to reset every once in a while with a number.

Not Joe Larson from NY. LOL! (No offense Joe, just thought it was hilarious.)

I think I’m going to have to vote for Little Wheel. It stars a freaking robot! How can you not vote for it? Maybe if you hate robots because some of them are evil. Maybe an evil robot invaded your home and killed you? No, you’d still have to vote for it.

Best fighting game? My answer there is probably more nostalgic reasons than that the game was actually the best ever. But I’d have to go with Street Fighter II – Champion Edition. Why Champion Edition you ask? Because it was a little better than the first one and because, let’s be honest here, after that one the naming got a little ridiculous. I probably actually spent more time playing various incarnations of Mortal Kombat (they got on their own ridiculous naming kick there at the end), but SF2 was kind of my introduction to fighting games. I remember one summer playing it for something like 8 hours a day every day for a week with my friends. Good times.

Heh…it’s been well over a decade since last I played it, so the glasses may be a little rose-coloured, I’ll admit. Still, I have more and better memories of playing that game than MK…probably because it was always against my brother,and I usually won, whereas MK was always against the AI at the arcade, and I always lost…

Damn you, Bytejacker! Upgrade Complete totally sucked me in. I didn’t stop until I had ever achievement & 110% complete. Took me 2023 seconds the ingame clock says. So Upgrade Complete is definitely my pick for the week.
