Mediocre franchise that was only successful because they pandered to edgy kids who wanted to see blood spray. They're not bad games, just meh. I can think of a dozen fighting games I'd rather play before MK.

>> No.2035378

>>2035135
There is no balanced gameplay when playing with friends because it depends on how good a person is at playing the game. Inevitably there is one person who knows way more and another who knows way less, and the game is just not fun like that.

You're forgetting tournament mode, which is really the only single player mode worth playing.

Overall, bretty gud/awesome, but downgrade that rating to not great/awesome if you aren't hyper fighting.

>> No.2035934

>>2035607
The whole concept of earning money to upgrade your mech was neat, but might as well play a proper mech simulator (Mechwarrior, Armored Core, etc.) if that's what your into. Playing single-player fighting games is pointless, because the AI is always terrible and you won't actually get better at the game.

>>2035378
>Inevitably there is one person who knows way more
Actually, if a game is broken all anybody has to know is how it's broken. You might have grown up cutting your teeth on MKII and some douchebag can show up with ridiculous cheese and break your heart. No thanks!

I hope you aren't a native English speaker because fighting games did not bring "cheese" into slang.

Cheese has been around for ages, especially in fighting games.

If you win a match in Street Fighter Alpha (from 1995) through chip damage, your win symbol was a big block of cheese, so it's been around for ages.

Fighting game AI is made to eat quarters.
CAPCOM makes this even harder by tilting the handicap towards the enemy (ie. the harder the difficulty, you do less damage and the enemy does more).

I noticed that so much when I played through Alpha 1 on 8 stars difficulty recently. Couldn't believe my eyes.

>> No.2036593

>>2036581
In Alpha 3, if an enemy that has a "beat buttons" kind of throw grabs you at level 8, you can receive up to 80% damage with A SINGLE THROW. It's not even funny.

Other games that have this are Street Fighter EX2 (you do less damage in Harder levels), and SFIII (ditto).

Jesus, and I thought 50% in Alpha 1 was bad.

Still, have to unlock that Final Bison somehow.
