Perfect KO - A Fighting Game Thread

Where's the option for divekick? ^_^

2D Fight Game

Tekken 7 and DoA in the poll.

no. kof 98 UM. keyboard beacuse I'm poor.

You left off the best fighting game on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/546390/

I prefer to use arcade sticks. I have old consoles w/ arcade sticks for Sega Saturn, Neo-Geo etc. so that's how I always played them. :)

Skullgirls because it's the only game on the list I own on Steam (though I only played it on Xbox) :p

Fighting games are one of the few genres I never got into for whatever reason.

But I do know an awful fighting game when I see one. Shadow: War of Succession:

I voted BlazBlue Centralfiction, even thought I don't have that one yet. I have all the prior ones.

I also like the Guilty Gear games and the MK ones.

One day I WILL own Injustice 2, though. I LOVED the first.

Skullgirls, too. Just need to get the 2nd Encore pack.

I don't know, man. I played The King of Fighters back in the day - on arcade, ps1 and then ps2. Nothing comes close to those. Street Fighter is and always was like the dumbed down version of the old The King of Fighters games. I even tried TKoF 14 on Steam when it was on a free weekend and it sucks balls. Not only that but the game (and the franchise) is dead. SNK is abhorrent when it comes to taking care of its most valuable franchise. Mortal Kombat and the derived (Injustice) suck ass because it's so slow and you can't even get a meaningful combo going. I'm downloading Street Fighter 5 now that it's free to give it another try. At least this one gets proper care from Capcom (even though I despise the character dlc practices they do with this one). I used to love Tekken as a kid. I played Tekken 1, 2, 3 and 5. Had a blast with all of them. It's been so long since I last played a Tekken game, maybe one day I'll give Tekken 7 a try.

Was looking forward to MK11, but it turned out to be SJW garbage w/ lots of microtransactions and a poor PC port.

So TEKKEN 7 remains my favorite, even though there's not Team Battle mode.

Still waiting for Virtua Fighter 2 to come to Steam. P

A bunch of those aren't 2d fighting games.

I love the fighting in Tekken 7 and DOA5
Nitroplus Blasterz is also quite fun, imo.

Tekken 7 and BB Centralfiction are my current favorites, taking a break from Injustice 2.

I own a fight stick. But keyboard feels much better.

There's a really good deal on Fanatical right now for GUILTY GEAR Xrd -REVELATOR- (+DLC Characters) + REV 2 All-in-One (does not include optional DLCs) for $13.49.

Fanatical has some good sales going on right now for fighting games for under $5 either at the historical lowest or very close to it.

Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code for $4.99.

Skullgirls Complete Edition for $1.49.

Battle Fantasia -Revised Edition- for $2.99

CHAOS CODE -NEW SIGN OF CATASTROPHE- for $4.99.

I enjoy fighting games, but I try to get them on consoles. Gotta have local play with friends on a large TV and listen to people blame everything but themselves when they lose. >:D

The only fighting game I actually cared to learn the combos is Blazblue, although central fiction and cross tag are the ones I have yet to experience. Hopefully they get 75% off this summer sale. Been waiting too long.

Noel best fighter

Bump.

At the beginning of the month Street Fighter V released the Summer 2019 Character Bundle which featured Lucia, E. Honda and Poison. Did anyone pick it up? What are your thoughts on it?

Championship Edition for Street Fighter is available for pre-purchase for $25 if you own the base game.
