CPUWIZ Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Soul Calibur 2 ! If it ever comes out! It's been done for months, I've finished playing the game 2 months ago. It runs on PS2 arcade hardware. We had a near final version hidden in our booth at E3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubersaurus Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Street Fighter II Turbo The only 2 SF2 versions that are ever played competetively anymore are that and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (ST, or Super Turbo for short). I prefer Hyper Fighting, but that one gets more play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somePUNK Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 what ever the clam cool colecitiveness on a good lucky botton smashing day a random lucky botton smasher could tack out out any one that came in his way even you . LIke if you had a thousand monkeies typing on a thousand type writers of a billion years eventually they will make the greatest story every written amoung the terrible geberosish they wrote simple phosyophy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Button mashers can't win against an experienced player. The only advantage they have is randomness. That just means that the good player can't do anything stupid. And thus, that button masher loses. The end. Take it from the guy who plays this stuff seriously.

Happy_Dude Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 I'm with somePUNK on this one Although I agree there is a lot of skill involved , and I am not a button basher, but sometimes when you're backed in a corner by a better fighter just going spaz on the controls can sometimes work. Beleive me I found some of my fave moves this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 If your backed into the corner by a good player, chances are they'll be rushing you down. It's happened to me, and basically what happens is that you are stuck blocking until a break in their trap occurs. However, a good player knows his attack has a break there, and will do a move that will punish anything you try to do. In SF2 Hyper Fighting Ryu had sucha trap by cornering you with fast fireballs, where he could pin you down with 3 of them, and then the trap broke. He could then do a slow fireball to throw you off, or a dragon punch, anticipating a jump. Either way, it would reset the trap, (if you got hit with either, block or no).Button mashers can get lucky, but don't count on it doing them much good. There is, after all, 3 rounds to a standard fighter. And if it's a team fighter like KOF or rage of the dragons, getting lucky on all your opponents is harder then one would think.

Happy_Dude Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 I can't seem to be good at more than 1 or 2 characters in any fighting game. Like I'm really good with Ryu in EX3 because of that driving medium kick. It has to be the fastest, crulest move ever devised, putting you in perfect placement to totally unleash on you're opponent and not giving them even a second to react. I can't use Ryu in any othe Street fighter game I'v played because of this move (is it EX3 exclusive or something) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somePUNK Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 agin with a lucky basher can bet the best player if they are lucky enough so while cahnaces aren't with you botton mashers can wina dn do all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy_Dude Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 sorry somePUNK but I have to point out Bushido Blade. The slow movement and deadly weapons mean that a button basher WILL be cut in half by someone with even a very small understanding of the game.

ShinRyu05 Posted December 8, 2002 Author Share Posted December 8, 2002 i would argue with some punk but i have no idea what he is saying. bottom line button mashers lose and lose offten. plus it takes the fun away from the game, the whole point of a fighting game is to learn the moves and apply them when needed, this is fun if you know what your doing.

somePUNK Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 i'm saying that logic says that the luckest botton smasher can beat the best player any day of the week, becsue they have ramdoness. So if they are lucky enough they will hit that one weak point in your game, anyday and hit it often enough to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Stratagy works better than luck in any situation. You might as well be saying that we should wait for one out of a thousand monkeys with computers to eventually create a fighting game than wait for the next one to be programmed by somebody. Odds are, you will be waiting for a LOOOONG time. So that "logic" is a bit off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somePUNK Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 but that dosen't mean it can't happen i'll take my chances with lady luck thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 No problem, whatever works for you. I'd think twice before going to Las Vegas to gamble with that logic, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
