Favourite Fighting Games beside SC

- P4A (because I picked the worst character against Mitsuru, but I like that character.)
- BB (because, like Xemuht, it has a diverse cast and an awesome soundtrack. Although I haven't really played since BBCS2, I'm definitely getting back into it when CP comes out.)
- Water Pizza or Aquapazza (strange name, but I tried it a few weeks ago and I kinda like it. It's on order right now. I feel it's kinda diverse and assists are always good right? Too bad, I don't know anyone who plays this as it is not very popular.)

As for SF, I just poke all day. Everyday. d3v is right though, controlling space is crucial in fighting games. Damage is nothing if you don't space your moves properly. You'll end up whiffing and eat damage yourself.

There will always be a little Mortal Kombat in me. I also love to switch between SC and her sister game Tekken once in a while. I also found Dragonball Z Budokai very interesting and fun from a fighting game perspective. I mean, guard all button with no low attacks, or ducking high attacks? Is this a fighting game? But it is. I love the intense concentration and one-on-one feeling of fighting games. Unfortunately, there are a lot of fighting games I have wanted to play but never got the chance. I've never played Dead or Alive. Never played Vs. games. (Thinking about getting UMvC3.) Dumbly, I had the opportunity to give King of Fighters a try and didn't in favor of some other game.

I also don't understand and really dislike when people dogmatically spit out, "Super Smash Bros. is NOT a fighting game!!!!11!1!!11!!!!1!eleven!!1!" Sure it's not traditional fighting game format, but screw me if the entire focus of the gameplay isn't fighting each other and trying to knock them out. Whatever, dudes, SSB is a fighting game, and a fun one at that. More emphasis on fun than competitiveness, maybe that's why people beef on it.

I have had the priviledge of playing Virtual Fighter 4, which I really like, although it's unfair to try to compare it to Soul Calibur's God-like perfection (opinion, of course). I also hate Street Fighter with a burning passion not unlike the hatred of someone who has deeply transgressed against my family. If I have to hate a fighting game, I've found the one I hate.

Also, I have a thing where I make my somewhat non-gamer parents watch video game movies with me. I found that between TEKKEN and Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, my mom loved Street Fighter while my dad preferred Tekken. Although, my mom probably loved it simply for having Kristin Kreuk in it.

One thing's for certain: you watched some gawd-awful movies.
