Not long until we have an official greatest fighting game of all time and an official worst fighting game of all time and NOTHING ELSE.
This will be the only time we can say this in such absolutes, until entry 0003 mucks it all up.

Have they said if they have an actual system for ranking the games? Like some sort of spreadsheet that they are keeping track of? Right now, after only two videos its easy, but after 10 or more (if they genuinely intend to keep this going), they will need something to keep track of the games they played and their rankings.
Jeff mentioned on Tumblr that he would have to find a better way of doing that soon because he was gonna run out of space real soon on the thing he uses now. But haven't heard anything since.

This is basically the Cool Wall of fighters. Just stick Primal Rage inside Fridge-Kun and shut it all down.

It would be hilarious if the game turns out to be one of the Samurai Shodown games for the Hyper Neo Geo 64

I like this game. I've always preferred weapon-based fighting games.
Yeah, it's considered to be a pretty fantastic game.

The only fighting game series I was ever really into.
That was Virtua Fighter for me. That franchise is so, so dead

don't worry, maybe they'll do an explicable mashup with a Nintendo series one day
Fire Calibur, anyone

I used to play this game so much in the arcade. It's been a really long time, but I remember using Charlotte. I wasn't very good, but you know... fun is fun.

Most of my favourite fighting game series are alive and well. A bit TOO alive if you ask me.

I wish fighting games weren't so hard so I could enjoy interesting characters. A few years ago I spent around 10 hours trying to get decent with Platinum the Trinity in BlazBlue and when I thought I finally was going somewhere I lost 10 games in a row online and noped out of there.
Edit: Just to clarify I mean interesting mechanically, not into that animu nonsense

BLAH-BLOO, as we call it in my neck of the words. It's also the only anime thing I can tolerate because of just how insanely overly anime it is. Boobie-lady is my waifu. Tiggers is an unpure girl for only the most shameful of weeaboo.

At least it went out on a high note.

I haven't been able to watch much, but has Jason won a match yet?
Well, BlazBlue isn't exactly the easiest fighting game to learn and master.
i haven't really looked at much gameplay of that, yet
i'll probably use whichever fighter is similar to a tekken char i play (lily, heihachi, paul, etc.)

I meant the general nature of fighting games and their timing/input mechanics. I find it extremely difficult to input combos accurately which obviously makes more complex games like BlazBlue very hard given you have to memorize tons of combos on top of all of the unique systems.

Yup. That's pretty amazing stuff that genuine enthusiasm can foster. I'm sure they were fine on their own, but have to believe they are grateful for what Giant Bomb did for them. I have the same feeling about Rocket League. If it was not on PS+ would it have garnered the strong word of mouth that it received. Would it still be the top seller on Steam? I don't know, but PS+ definitely gave it a boost. I have a feeling some people that say they would've payed for it (had it not been on PS+) because of how much they love the game, might not have had it on their radar at all, thus would not have bought it to know how much they loved it. Coverage for these types of games can do wonders.

I always thought Ukyo was cool. He can send out an owl as an attack if I remember correctly.

Yeah, I suck at fighting games which is why I stopped playing them. Don't really have any friends who want to play those kind of games with me locally, and it's no fun getting crushed online every time I play.
I have your answer
alriiight
gonna have to work on the 'stache before the game comes out, though
