Well Third Strike was as good as SF ever gets. Definitely one of the best fighters next to VF4/5/FS

Case in point.

3s fans love the game. ST games don't care about it. That's why the best 3s players stay playing 3s ie: Kuroda, who only plays sf4 casually. Conversely you got Daigo the God who has a strong ST background and dislikes 3s. ST is more footsie based so you have a lot of overlap between those fans and sf4 fans. 3s sorta mitigates zoning and footsies with parries, it's a whole other kind of beast and arguable the least 'street fighter' of the series.

I did finally watch Nausicaa a few weeks ago

I didn't really enjoy it.

My system works for me. I need some distance from all the hype and acclaim to really judge and enjoy something for what it is.

KoF and SNK games in general had the best(and most comprehensive) PS2 ports

You don't know struggle until you play Melty Blood

I still think 2nd Impact was better than 3rd Strike.

That's an opinion I guess

TLOU fans man, they always make me feel like they'd stab me in the street to protect that game.

I don't think they'd do that

They'd totally spit in your food or give you dirty money as change though

That is going to come as a consequence from people on the other end of the spectrum arguing that a game aint shit or is 'overhyped'(lol). And like you said 'a fine line'.

Agreed. Which is why I don't even bother reading that shit anymore. I was more trying to explain the line of thinking because I've felt the same way in the past. Nowadays, I know what I'm going to be playing/trying long before I ever actually read any opinions on it, so it doesn't even matter to me.

Have you ever seen how third strike fans are? ST fans and third strike fans are like oil and water.

Not familiar with fighting game stuff, unfortunately. I'm generally awful at them, and can't convince myself I could ever become good enough to make it worth putting in the hundreds of hours required to actually be competitive. I generally just watch EVO and that's it.

I think the one that irks me the most personally is Zelda. The last game is shit, the one before it is the best thing ever. Said shit game becomes the greatest thing ever when a new one is released and takes the shit game spot. Just a personal pet peeve.

Naughty Dog fans in general.
I wouldn't say so. I'm a naughty fog fan and I can understand people complaints about their prior games. Fuck the only game I think they've made even worth defending is uncharted 2. u1, u3, and TLOU, all have pretty glaring problems.

Re-united with my tower. Finally playing Bioshock Infinite that I bought in the 2013 Steam Summer Sale.

My summary of the game thus far:

Slayven.

Slayven what are you doing? Shading the KOF games? You serious?


And Sonic..god man I'm shocked they made any more games past 3. Biggest mystery is how that series is still alive.

Man... I've just got horrible luck as a fighting game fan. Jun got killed off, Vanessa got Vanessa'd and KoF as a whole was thrown in the bushes, Nu/Lambda got nerfed to shit without mercy, Skullgirls was dead on release, Akihiko is free, Juri is mid-tier forever

She's top in Ultra. and I think Nu is p good in BBCP

and you should take Skullgirls off of this. Betting on a 3 legged horse like that falls outside of the influence of "luck" breh.

You don't know pain until you realize Zafina will never get the tools she needs

What do you exactly mean. I think I know what you mean about Skullgirls but when it released years ago I was able to consistently to have people to play with. I'm not sure about it now because I don't really play fighting games anymore but it looks like the community is mostly on PC now.

This shit killed me the most. You'd think MikeZ and co pissed off a voodoo priestess with the amount of shit that went wrong with Skullgirls.

Yea I heard, shit's crazy.

No shade, no shade. Just when someone brings up KOF, I expect them to mention Coolboarders, and Clayfighters next, when they are remembering a past era.

It was always pretty-to-look-at shit.

Clayfighters was a better fighting game imo

edit: godfucking damnit

Had a restaurant offer our group free Carrot Top tickets in Vegas during my work trip last week. They went, I decided to just go drink at the bar instead. I think I made the right choice.
