Mortal Kombat - Tekken - Virtua Fighter - Killer Instinct - Street Fighter

People are actually voting for MK? What a shame... That series is horrid.

I voted VF, but I am not obsessed with it or anything. It is just the only 3D fighter I like.

I have never been able to control SF2 properly, I have no idea why. The moves seem hard to do on the controllers I have used.

DBZ fighters would actually be my favourite. I really like the one on Genesis and Hyper Dimension on SNES.

Poll fails for two exclusions: #1, SNK. I mean come on, King of Fighters '95-'99 was big, Real Bout was big, and Samurai Shodown was huge. #2, Darkstalkers. It may be "second tier", but if Killer Fucking Instinct is on here, Darkstalkers more than deserves it.

I voted for Street Fighter, but Virtua Fighter is a close #2. The other three suck. Especially Killer Instinct. I mean come on, you might as well have included Primal Rage.

Although you are obviously misguided for liking MK, I do like your avatar.

Killer Instinct needs some love. KI2 was much better, BTW

Mortal Kombat FTW.

In terms of my favorites:

1. Street Fighter
2. Mortal Kombat
3. Tekken
4. Virtua Fighter
5. Killer Instinct

In terms of quality:

1. Virtua Fighter
2. Street Fighter
3. Tekken
4. Killer Instinct
5. Mortal Kombat




I think they are all good, however the two that have had the most misfires IMO have been Mortal Kombat and Tekken. I really dug Tekken 4, but because of stupid fanboys Namco took the series a step backwards with Tekken 5. I thought the point of sequels was to improve gameplay, not simply add more characters. As for Mortal Kombat, MK 4 and Armageddon were downright crappy and disappointing, respectively, and many would argue that MK3 and Deception were disappointments too (although I liked them).

Mortal kombat 2 has always been my favourite followed by street fighter 2. Never been a big fan of the 3D fighting games!

Some of my favorite fighting games ever are the Soul Calibur series, which would probably be tied with Street Fighter for me. SC for Dreamcast was the first 3D fighter that I seriously played, and to this day it's still great (although I'd rather play SC4 now due to more features, better graphics, and the expanded roster).

I had to decide on SF but they all are amazing fighting games.
