Who was joking?
This isnāt even really a thread about āshittyā games, more like obscure games. Most of these games being tiered are awesome.
The review that we did was for the Genesis version. As far as the SNES version goes Flash and Green Arrow are top tier. Despero is also really good, but I think we had him right below those two.
I see. I was kind of thrown off because the first few games mentioned were Shaq Fu and Mortal Kombat 1 (They probably mentioned Ballz 3D here, somewhere). Anyhow, I really do think Street Fighter 4 is one of the shittiest fighting games Iāve ever played, if not that, then the most overrated. I mean, itās just so average! Thereās nothing special about the game, but it gets attention when most fighters have done either the same thing, or BETTER, but people ignore them completely. My theory is 1. Street Fighter 4 is popular because of itās title (NOT A GOOD REASON). 2. Street Fighter 4 is popular because people can get into it easily and learn the game fast without having to figure out the game. (This is debatable, I think itās stupid because it just means other games donāt get a chance because people donāt want to take 10 damn minutes to figure out how the game works) 3. Itās Street Fighter 2 mainstreamed up the ass with generic music, 3D Graphics, and shortcuts so everyone can do an uppercut without having to put forth the effort. (That doesnāt matter so much, but itās annoying because I LIKE putting uppercut motions in.) 4. It got mainstream advertisements and people HAVE to follow what Gamespot or IGN says. "-_- Honestly, I see no reason to like the game as much as itās liked. Itās just another average fighter and not that big a deal.
Anyhow, if this really is about obscure games, I guess Iāll talk about one.
Battle Tycoon for the SNES. This game is kind of interesting for a fighting game. It kind of has a pseudo-RPG thing that involves adding stats to your character and upgrading things about them. All the characters kind of have some Art of Fighting inspired abilities to them as well. There canāt really be a tier because of the upgrade system, unless everyoneās maxed out or something. I donāt want to have to do all that though Shrugs Anyhow, check it out sometime I suppose.

Overall SFIV is NOT a bad game. Itās solid and holds up in the tourney scene. Thatās all it is really. Is it great? Hell, no. But itās playable and so it will see play.
I mean the āwho said I was jokingā line has already been reused. Pro-tip if you have a really clever idea for a joke maybe check the thread, other people have done it first.
Does anyone want to tier Fighterās Megamix? I loved that game when I was younger, Iām still trying to remember who I thought was best, Hornet was pretty good. Oh I played Candy all the time.
But I wasnāt trying to be clever, I was actually quite serious. I think SF4 is a horrible game and Iām just being straightforward. Why confuse people by trying to be ācleverā instead of being straightforward
Basaraās at the tournament scene in SBO, thatās all I need to say my friend.
There are far worse games my friend. Does it have scrubby shit? Sure does. Get used to it. Itās the casual age and it aināt going anywhere. Accept it or just play old shit. *shrug

Well, maybe I am being harsh, but I just wish more people would stop giving so much attention to this game when itās really not that good. I mean, itās popular, but thatās it. Itās really nothing special and I just wish people would stop treating it like such. After playing dozens and dozens of fighting games way before SF4, I was hyped for the gameās release. I thought āI bet this game is going to be an impressive release.ā and was ready for it. Instead, I got Street Fighter 4. By the way, donāt be deceived by the year I joined, I was playing 2D fighters way before I joined this site. I just didnāt join till recently because
-
(And no offense, Iām sure this probably doesnāt apply to you) I hear most of the people on SRK are idiots, hardheaded, or just assholes.
-
Iām not one who travels to real big, mainstream sites often. I like to go to small communities.
-
My friend told me to join (I didnāt want to after the disappointment I had with SF4, but I did to make that one thread)
-
I know better places (No offense) to learn about my characters in a fighting game and usually try learning in training mode immediately.
As for the holding in a tournament thing, Basaraās at the tournament scene in SBO, thatās all I need to say about that one my friend.
I think SF4 is ultra scrubby, but just IMO, scrubby shit happens in old games too. IMO Balrog and Dhalsim throw looops as well as old sagat fireballs was severe scrub shit in ST. But that gameās actually fun, so w/e.
Dudeā¦most people everywhere are idiots.

Stop trying to ruin the thread you humorless twat. You can screech about SF4 in so many other threads. Itās pretty evident this is for having fun and tiering obscure games and you have to try to start shit here because youāre a rote shithead who canāt have fun.
Fantastic dude, if I wanted to see someone with a thumb up their ass Iād find a free homosexual website. Now either list tiers for Fighter Megamix just just get the fuck out. Thanks.
Even if you were serious, this is a thread about tier lists. Donāt you think there are a million tier lists for SFIV in the SFIV forums? Why even talk about SFIV in this forum section when itās got itās own massive section. Letās keep FGD about misc fighters.
Just askingā¦why does the thread need to be named Shitty? Majority of the games listed actually are pretty good and playable.
Itās a really old thread, the title was set in january 2007⦠Guess the OP didnāt see coming that the thread would turn out like this
I guess the title still stands because OP isnāt around or because of tradition or whatever.
Wtf are you doing on here scrub. Get back to wtfux.
<- Kasey
Kasey will you tier Fighters Megamix? :3
street fighter II for the gb?
not really a competitive game but i used to love playing it
Shit⦠Iām destroyed, this argument canāt be defeated. You win EmblemLord and Iām a bit serious⦠Thatās kinda sad.
So let me get this straight. By stating one thing about how I hate SF4, I ruined the thread. Since when the Hell did I have the power to āruinā the thread? Also, just relax a bit, Iām not insulting someone (A person) so donāt insult me. Iām not trying to diss you, but Iām just trying to show that Iām not against you in reality. What I mean is, Iām not trying to really insult anyone and Iād appreciate it if you donāt insult me. Sorry if Iām no good with words, but you get what I mean right? Anyhow, if I had to tier a game that was obscure⦠Hmā¦
This is probably the most broken fighting game around⦠Iāve never seen such busted, complex combos in any game besides this one. Karate Champ for the arcade.
