Ok, a bit more specific: this page will leave no doubts (if anybody still has any) that there was just plain sarcasm. Check responses to " t3r.sAnkAri" post. Posting the Daigo parry and explaining what is going on to someone who pays attention to fighting games is like coming to TL and making a post on cool moves by a guy called Boxer and explaining what is micro. In brief, Fighting games have a scene on it's own. Who would have known. | ||

First page is all sorts of fail and win, I can't tell what to make of it. Grouping games by series is tough with some games having such high variance (marvel 1 and 2, ST and 3S and SF4...). I think Guilty Gear requires the highest combination of execution and thought, but for non Japanese gamers, SF4, ST, 3S, and Marvel 2 definitely take the cake in terms of competitiveness. Diego Umejuarez Perry must be related to Valle FOR SHO! also | ||

I'm tempted to agree on the count of GG (#R if I had to pick) but I still don't feel comfortable making a declaration like "Guilty Gear takes more skill than Street Fighter". | ||

Marvel vs Capcom 2 has combos that are so difficult to consistently perform that even top players almost never use them (like Storm's tri jump lk lk hk infinite), so by that measuring stick you could claim it the hardest. But it's combo system is extremely beginner friendly (all normals chain into each other) and forgiving of screwups, so in practicality it definitely is not. As far as SSBM being the most skilled / "pro-est," I'd say no because of how relatively lax the game is on execution. This is all assuming that by most skilled you mean it in the same way as Flash & Jaedong being more skilled than Boxer. If you're referring to the depth of competition, that's almost impossible to judge save for obvious examples of games lacking depth (Dead or Alive games, MK since UMK3, SSBB, etc). AIthough I guess you could say Super Turbo is the most skilled since it's been played at a tournament level the longest by that definition. This definitely would have been better just asking the fighting games thread (I think this thread may have been what sent Ack into self-imposed exile)  | ||

the game is incredibly well designed and almost everything links together in a grand flow chart, where each move is thoughtfully designed and balanced against every other. you're always pressing buttons and constantly thinking even though it may look like nothing much is happening. most other fighting games, the characters have one or two dominant strategies and everything revolves around that. vf forces you to learn multiple tactics to deal with every situation, against every character. that's not to say other fighting games suck though. actually SF: HD / ST is my game of choice. | ||

I am actually quite decent at ssb64, I practice with the #1 player sometimes. One glaring mistake is death.. Combos (0 percent to deaths), gimps, special techniques, mindgames.. The thing I love about the original ssb64, however, is that all characters have rape abilities and that all of them, except arguably 1 or 2 chars, are very viable in tournament play. I'd say the Street Fighter games, though, take a little bit more skill (esp 3rd strike). I've heard from other people that Guilty Gear is also very skill-based, just that a lot of people haven't heard of it including me. Killer Instinct, sorry that game does not equate with skill (snes version) | ||

THANKS for this post. Moar of this plz guys. And I know it's lame to group the games into series but I don't want to get into fucking arguments about 'WHY DIDN'T YOU PUT SF4, 3S IS MUCH MORE PRO' and I didn't want to have a poll with 40 options. So I just want you to pick the series which has the most pro game in it, and discount the rest. And btw quite a lot of ppl I know often say virtua fighter too, and that it's just too hard to even get started in so it's best to just go with SF4 or SSBM. My friends all play ssbm but ill get us onto playing sf4. We all have always loved soul calibur because it's kind of the antithesis to pro gaming, it's so easy that a normal person can just pick it up and be relatively competitive...It's just really interesting to see the poll results even if half the people complain about it ^^ | ||

Smash is winning, for pete's sake, hahah | ||
