Why is everybody playing 2D fighting games?

Chinese Chess is fun. Catapults, King is confined to the castle, some units cannot leave their half of the board--good game ^_^

For bad players like me, we stalemate way too often though

 

I think Divekick is fun as a social, casual game, but it doesn't hold up when people aren't around.

I am enjoying Skullgirls right now, which shocks the hell out of me. I've been neglecting my VF due to that plus trying to do some SC5 training for TFC.

 

Dumbest post I've read this month (highlight in bold)

2nd dumbest post I've read this month

Oh ye ucan mesh wit eddi gordo in Takken such a stupid game for scrubs and keeds

I'm guessng you never really played 2-D games or played against somenone somewhat decent

 

I grew up on 2d games u scrub an now I grew out of them just like I grew out of toys and cartoons so u must be one of those 15 year olds that still like cartoons

 

I'm done having this dumb debate btw 2d and 3d it's simple ps2 or ps3 Xbox or Xbox 360 there u go which would u choose

 

So.. you're saying that 2D games are bad because of the graphics? LOL great argue there

 

If u read earlier in my other posts its also the gameplay come on 50hitcombos there not realistic like 3d games but the graphics are bad enough for me so u just keep on with ur little skull girls persona etc.and I'll stick with a real man's game have a nice day vf baby

 

VF is not realistic at all

 

I dunno...

1) Taka can dodge as fast as Kage
2) Kage can throw people 10 feet into the air
3) People can still stand after Aoi or Goh breaks their limbs

If you ask me that's pretty realistic

/sarcasm

 

You forgot to mention extending air combos with jabs!!

 

A dummy what I meant by realistic is vf uses real martial arts styles wow are u really that dum

 

Haha, he thought he was debating at some point.

 

i like the realistic judo martial arts move that Goh punch you in the face

 

I do enjoy that goh has a illegal move p+k is a fishook

 

I think i saw someone headbutting someone in a judo match in the olymics

 

If that doesn't get you the gold I don't know what will.

 

There was a thread at another website where someone asked, what people who don't like 3D fighters, don't like exactly. I mentioned movement such as walk speed is.generally slow so dashing of some sort is a must. VF5 ver.C.hit the nail on the head as far as movement went. Walk speeds were fast, but dashing still had the advantage.

I'd give special mention to SC IV and V because Namco made it more movement more approachable without just simple taps, instead of double taps to get around. Running is is almost instant as well. 8WR is just a lame evade system though, and so is double tapping for a quick evade ( SC V). Taps like OM and evade are a better design, as it gives the game more zip.

I'd put

 

I hate dashing... Sometimes I enter double 4 but it reads it simply as 4 so I end up walking back a little and getting hit.

 

Clean up your inputs. My dashing/stepping used to be bad, unless it was pre-meditated, but eventually it just becomes second nature. Again, fast walk speeds should be the norm across the board, to get the player in the game faster, but dashing should still retain it's advantage over walking.

Also the Failed Evade in 5 was better because it switched your stance, which gave the player instant visual feed back to see if their dash canceling was on point.

I hope Sega looks at that aspect of 5 and uses it, if not going for something entirely new.
