Prettiest 2D fighter?

Chaos Brakers and Primal Rage… Seriously the last one. For a 1994 game it has far more animation frames than ANY GG game.

Mugen/ShugenDo/Infintycat are the prettiest “2D fighters”…

They are engines…

Not to mention engines with severe limitations. IDK about the other two, but seriously Mugen’s max resolution is 640 by 480. :rolleyes:

3s and guilty gear XX in a ps2 using component cables on an hdtv with progressive scanned turned on is pretty effin gorgeous.

I’m thinking ST. No game has beautiful colors like that one. But 3S would be second.

just waiting for vanillaware to jump into the fighting ring, until then i would say GG or a remade high res waku waku 7. I just love the character design and the use of color!

3s has progessive scan?

idk if it officially does, but on a sony hdtv that has prog scan turned on (instead of default interlaced) it is gorgeous.

isn’t the word pretty gay enough

3rd Strike most definetly

I saw a fighter the other day that reminded me of a chibi Arcana Heart… There was little girls with big heads throwing hearts at each other, but the title was in Japanese… What game is this?

touhou immaterial and missing power, probably

yup that’s it.

what’s it for? is it good? etc.

SFII’ CE… all these years on, and it’s still probably the one game that I can say is exactly as it should be in every way, from a graphical standpoint. It is from the early 90s and it shows, but for what it is, it is perfect. There is not one flub in the visual design.

A shame not many people will admit this…And the fact that the PGM hardware was pretty much the same as a Neo-Geo!..

PR’s graphics and animation were in a league of their own. Hell, everything from the control to the games theme!

-Other games:
Samurai Shodown 2. :tup:
HNK
3S
Night Warriors
SvG
MK2
Global Champion
Dark Legend

To name a few…

pc

it depends … are you willing to spend an extra 5 minutes reading everything about the system mechanics before you play??? the difficulty curve of the game due to it being different from most fighters is mad overrated i think
aside that i think its a real good game if you like shit like zoning and heavy meter management

Hax…Johnnys only got 8 coins :mad:

…that have an endless amount of beautiful stages available, along with most characters you could ever imagine?

Now if we take the whole thing as a total, then for every beautiful character like Dragon Claw and Ella (her animations are so crazy) there are 100 SSJ8 Boxing toaster or some other insane shit that looks terrible. So that means mugen et al as a whole look awful. Would GG or 3S be considered good looking if only 1 character was the real one and the rest were done in C64 era sprites.
