Fighting Games

I played VF4: Evolution for three straight months. Best fighting game this generation; hands down. GGXX takes second because of the steeper learning curve.

I like to use quick characters, as I do a lot more combos with ease. Though, when I'm on a bad controller and some things don't register, consider me screwed. I got semi-far in a GGXX tournament, but no farther, because I couldn't possibly get the controller to recognize any overdrives. Ugh.

But yeah, that's me.

My favorite fighting game was probably the Streets of Rage series for Genesis. Primarily for the co-op factor. Since Streets of Rage is gone, the only fighting game I play now I Super Smash Bros. Melee with my friends. We all knew the moves inside out, so for us, it's more a battle of minds. I bought Soul Calibur 2 but I didn't really like it and never play it. The arena is too small. I guess I got to used to Smash Bros. and the large fighting areas.

I think the first fighting game I ever played was either one of the Virtua Fighters I believe. I wanted to be that ninja guy, but I screwed up and got some other guy.

Or it was a Street Fighter game as Vega. With his cheap move where he is on the ground and he like skids. Well it was cheap then.

Right now my favorite would be Soul Calibour 2, Smash Bros. but then again I don't really play many others?
One game I remember was awesome. It was for PSone, it was called Erheirgz or something. It was made by square I believe, with Cloud, Tifa, Sephiroth and others. So much fun.

Question...

Were you playing Reload with a converter being used with a PS2 controller, because in January I plan on entering a GGX2 Reload tournement, and it's bring your own converter and controller.

Also, which characters do you use?

It was a BYOC, but I forgot my controller.

Reload? No.. the original PS2 version.

I use May and Faust. I'm pretty unstoppable. The only characters I have major troubles against are Axl-Low and Chip Zanuff.

Heh. Unfortunatly for you Moogle is a Chip Zanuff master.

And what is a "converter"?

How much does this "Virtua Figher 4" game that everyone is talking about sell for now days?

VF4 and VF4: Evo are only $20 each.

I prefer EVO. Just because.. there's a ton of stuff you can get, and it never gets boring.

HOORAY!

So Friday I bought:

Guilty Gear X2 Reload (Which = 100x more fair than X2)
2 Controller Converters.

IT'S SO SWEET!

I love it.

Chipp isn't so krappy anymore. Thank you Sammy for upping his defense.

Did you get an Xbox to play Reloaded on?

Yesterday I went out shopping, and went to EB, and while there I bought a few games. I got Xmen legends, Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (13 DOLLARS!), and...Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution (also 13 dollars, but no instruction booklet.)

So I've been playing Xmen legends a whole lot...and it's a fun game. I enjoy using my telekinisis powers of Jean Grey to throw the bad guys around.

I also played Aria of Sorrow all the way home...extremely fun.

I played VF4:Evo for about 20 minutes...and I suck at it. The reason I suck is ignorance...I dont know how to play it. I wish it had came with an instruction booklet. I need to download one or something, because I have no clue what I'm doing. The only thing I could do was block my oppenets attack, then punch them a few times. So now I'm off on an online quest to figure out how that game works.
