You can have the single chair. For real though, I’ll support the melty scene just as soon as Virtua Fighter gets off the ground. Let’s make it happen guys. 2012.
Vintage Lucerne…Always GDLK
I’ll be on VF. Seriously, three great games I’m interested in next year, and not one is made by Capcom. I like that.
Thanks. Let me know when you got my table and Asus monitor to go with it too. 
But really… I don’t mind if a game is widely played or not. As long as I like the game and have 5 or 6 dedicated / quality players to regularly fight against, I’m completely fine with that. I just can’t get myself to play fighting games just for the fact that people play them… To be honest, if it weren’t for the release of Arcana 3 and the surge of interest in Tekken, I would have quit fighting games a while ago.
The first thing I worry about is whether I like a game… not whether someone plays it.
Hope the Persona fighter is similar to jojo’s
I doubt anyone plays games they seriously dislike, c’mon. Having a scene is important to me though. The first thought on my mind might not always be who plays this game, but…
“Do I really want to sit in the corner mean muggin’ like Brandino™” does flash through my head whenever I pick up a fighting game I can’t find at gamestop.
edit: up at 6:34 talkin’ shit on the internet. GDLK indeed. 
I call some MAJOR BS on that one…
Until then I guess I’ll be the only one playing, haha. AH3 and MB are just really fun games to play. I’d be surprised if anyone here has ever played Queen of Heart or even earlier Sango Fighter.
SFIV and MvC3 comes into mind.
Pretty much, the only way to get recognition in the US is by winning a Capcom game, even if they’re shit. So if you want to be known as good nationally, you pretty much have to play AE or Marvel right now. So if you’re playing for recognition, you gotta play those games. You don’t get credit for winning tournies where only 8 show up, no matter how good you are at it.
I see both points, I play a number of FG that lots of folks maybe never heard of or got a chance to play. Yes I have played Queen of Hearts,Its a good Game. I love MB,Karnov’s Revenge,JoJo,Groove on Fight,GG,Asuka 120%,Plasma Sword,Rumble Fish,VF,back in NE we played everything. If it had tight combos, we loved it.But its hard to keep playing alone. Part of the reason I love FGs is the community and the friends that comes with it.Sadly enough I get shoe horned into playing games like STF4 since they are the most popular. But if I have even one person to play any other game, I most likely will play that game over new Capcom games. lol:D
Could be worse.
Could be the room containing all people who play wonderful world.
Groove on Fight was a fun game. Power Instinct’s a fun series in general though.
If I wanted to play games for money and recognition I wouldn’t be playing fighting games. Not to mention, if I don’t honestly love a game I’m not ever going to be good at it.
Actually there have been MANY times I have picked up a game that I didn’t like simply just to participate in the competitive scene. Tekken 2 (yep I used to hate Tekken), SSF4, Soul Calibur 2, CvS1 and 2, and those are just off the top of my head. I would play more fighting games now but I did that whole “Play everything” thing back in the day and it drained me heavily so I just stick to around 3 games now.
I play games that other people play. The reason? I enjoy beating other people, and I like for the ceiling to be as high as possible locally. I don’t hate SSF4 or MVC3, but I feel like the other games are way, way better. However, that doesn’t matter when I can’t play those games against people.
The problem here is that top players in this state refuse to try to create a scene. These players don’t realize that they can get others to play a game just by playing it themselves. I was speaking to one of these players recently about CS2 at Elite Zone and his response was “nobody plays it.” Well, if you play it, then all of a sudden somebody’s playing it. Stop waiting for the players to do something, when in reality, they’re waiting for you.
EDIT: I’m not saying names, because the players I’m talking to know this is pointed at them.

Nah. I stand by it. People like to bitch about Super and MVC3 to try and get some of the hate off their back, but if they genuinely didn’t enjoy playing the game on any level, they would stop. It’s like listening to a fat person say Mcdonalds is gross even though you know damn well they creep through the drive through every night, or those people who say they hate tv but have no trouble keeping up with community, parks and rec, the office, and all that other BS.
I tend to believe that actions speak louder than words. If someone tells me they hate super but they all they ever do is play it, that just means they’re full of it and they don’t want to deal with the hassle of defending a game that’s very popular to hate on. Even if they only like it because they’ve deluded themselves into thinking they’ll be the next Justin or whatever. I’m sure there are far more people out there who like Super and talk shit about it, then there are people who actively hate the game but refuse to stop playing.
I for one hope that people will give other games a chance,and step out of their comfort zone. A lot of “Alternative” companies are putting time effort and heart into these products for fighting game fans. But when we just give Capcum our money over and over again for the same rehashed stuff its sad.I’m a artist and I truly appreciate, 2D hand drawn sprites in my FGs. That’s just me, hell I’m at home playing BBBR now,lol. MVC3 and the SF4 series are fun but they have no heart in the creative sense.IMO
I’m a 2D fan at heart as well, but this is going a little far if you ask me. For MvC3 and SF4 the heart is in the art direction, animations, and character moves (character moves are especially important in MvC3).
