That’s deep, Pixel.
When it becomes gratuitous and wrong but still turns you on.
No lie, that moved me. Chest thump Right here. Bottom line, if it’s what people want, it will be what people get. It’s hard to complain about that. As a bisexual male~ I tend to see a lot of fanservice brought to us on a lot of guy characters as well, but nowhere near in the same amounts or done as disrespectfully. I wish there was more “tasteful” fan service.
Chun-Li is a good example of how far it should go. She’s so well done, most don’t see her as a “fan-service” character. Neither is Sol Badguy, he’s just a cool looking character… not a sexual object. Yet he’s as fan service as can be. That’s how it *should *be.
dizzy from guilty gear looks like a stripper. that shit is just too much.
and when she gets hit, she sounds like shes getting raped.
Stop whining. Get over it.
who says i’m whining? i’m just keeping it real.
SF2 chars in SF3 = Fanservice?
PS3 exclusive character costumes = fanservice
As real as her having a dragon tail with angel/devil wings. Yeah…Also, why are you complaining about Dizzy when I-no’s in the game? lol
Anyway, if you complaining about more skin showing, there is more of that with the guys in GG than the women. Sol, Anji, Johnny, Zappa, Venom, Testament, Potempkin. C’mon put up a good argument here.
Anime game designs are horrible and unimaginative. Deal with it.
Yet everyone and their mother loved the shit out of the Alpha series.
Anime fighting game right there.
yeah, guilty gear’s character design is ass.
I think developers have their priorities straight though. The fact that games like DOA:xtreme sold poorly (at least I hope it did) shows that we’re not gonna shell out 60 bucks for a game that has no substance. Make a good game first, then put in dat ass if you feel so inclined.
Sold well enough for them to make a sequel and a PSP game of it.
Indeed, Street fighter, KOF, Tekken, Virtua Fighter, Melty Blood, Arcana Heart, Fatal Fury, Garou, FH, World Heroes, Guilty Gear, BlazBlue, Marvel Versus Capcom, Soul Calibur, SamSho, most doujin games series, and other games with anime inspired designs are horrible and unimaginative. Derp.
Scroll to the top of the page, look at the image next to the SRK logo; it’s Ibuki with big anime eyes. Now go play any Street Fighter or KoF game, see people hurling ki blasts at eachother as a core of the foosies game? See the cute Japanese school girls flashing their panties when they jump or kick? See the anime inspired cinematic DM’s / Ultras? Newsflash buddy, not only do you play Anime Fighters, you fucking LOOOOOOVE anime fighters.
If you don’t like anime fighters you should probably leave SRK, because 99.94% of on-topic posts are about anime fighters.
fixed for you silly boy 
yeah just look at kof, sf oh wait
SRK thinks that they are not anime when they are in fact fucking anime as well :rolleyes:
shhhh people here really belive tat everything is anime except for sf
…people don’t think Street Fighter is anime inspired? Where the hell did this come from? X3 You guys are so freaking funny sometimes.
Manime.
The only way the “anime game” label can work is if it pertains to artstyle - If the presence of popular eastern mysticism clichés count, then I guess MK is an anime game, 'cause there are people shooting magic energy shit from their hands in that as well. And if the presence of fanservice counts, you’ll have to explain to me the fundamental difference between panty flashing and Sonya’s ass in tight track pants/Kitana’s giant knockers
Blazblue/GG are “anime inspired”, you can look at the screen and see. I’d call the Alpha series “anime-inspired”, too. I wouldn’t call SF2/SF3 “anime games”, they appear quite a bit more realistic to me in motion (SF2 moreso than SF3, but eh). The common misunderstanding seems to come from the idea that a japanese game must be inspited by anime no matter what
WTF constitutes fan service? accoridng to capcom, fan service is listening to capcomunity about which characters are in the game. Is that really fucking fan service? doing some fuck ass BS that doesn’t even matter to the games design?
what about all the top players in the USA complaining about ssf4 netcode and how far behind it is? where is that type of fan service @?
this isn’t only spewing out of my mouth. James chen knocked capcom @ sb5 LIVE on the stream. No notable player on srk will say the online version of ssf4 is good in the USA. Only scrubs seem to think its fine.
graphic design is the least of the worries for a video game. Look @ tetis attack, it couldn’t be any simpler but that games engine mechanics are fucking BONKERS! you can play TA for 10 years and not master it.
games like GG\BB, don’t bother me visually. However, AH3 kinda does only because its pedo fighter. The game mechanically looks great, the subject matter of their characters design is just real huge culture shock.
And the anime style fighting games are the ones pushing the 2d barrier further. Capcom just keeps watering down their gameplay over and over for the casual market and it keeps resulting in hella bland games. They’ve basically stole every concept in GG\BB and put it in either mvc3\ssf4.
