MVC2 would be a 1000 times better without the big 4. In fact, tournaments should start manning up and banning those characters and that game will experience a rebirth of greatness.
Chrono Cross was absolute shit and Chono Trigger was only ok.
Super smash bros Melee is the best fighting game ever made.
Half-Life games aren’t that good, the only reason you buy them is too play Counter-Strike.
Donkey Kong Country 3 is better than 2.
If hardcore gamers played Madden for real we’d probably dominate the pro circuit with random glitches and strategies that have nothing to do with football.
Tecmo Super Bowl is the best football game ever made.
You do realize that even if the big 4 were banned, there’d just be another group of characters in the game that’d dominate the rest? The big 4 isn’t the only thing wrong with MvC2 in terms of balance.
I’m still surprised that Capcom hasn’t patched this. I guess SDTV owners in the magical land of Japan are a rare thing. They should take some time away from their giant robots and samurai fights to fix this problem.
heh, I’m running on empty at this point…it’s depressing that I’ve run out of unpopular opinions…
-Pit Fighter was ok, imo. It was a classic case of a game being unintentionally hilarious in so many ways…and it was actually somewhat fun to play. Let’s see…there were two giant gay guys in hotpants, black boots and chains near the end of the game. The first opponent was a sloppy fat black guy with an S&M mask on, and wrestling tights…and he constantly jumped around with that big beer belly sticking out, despite having NO agility at all. Another opponent looked like a random whore…or WWF’s “Scary Sherri” from the late 80s…and there was a scrawny chump in army fatigues, looking like he couldn’t weigh more than 126 lbs…and then you had the player characters…Buzz, who looked like a young Jerry Lawler, the random karate guy Ty, and Kato, who wore Hammer pants for some reason.(ohhhhh imagine if he had a special move where he did the Typwriter on someone, and it counts as a combo!) People seriously want to sit there and pretend like this wasn’t a recipe for quality entertainment? dammit, I’ve reminded myself now of how great this was…I’d play it right now if my genesis wasn’t dead.
-shit, Shaq Fu wasn’t even the “worst fighter ever” like some people would believe…that honor goes to the Rise of the Robots games.
-ah, and how could I forget—The music of Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Yeah, I loved it. I have most of the tracks recorded several times over…they’re on my itunes library, my ipod, and several custom cds. I even have this track called “Network” or whatever…it wasn’t used in the game. I’m glad they went with that soundtrack…it was a lot more interesting than yet another fighter/whatever game with random, non-descript, bland techno. Anyway…if anyone happened to be in Nashville, TN…and noticed a black guy driving around to some MvC2 music…that would most likely be me.
-Playstation version Doom’s music is superior to the original PC Doom. hmm…ambient, creepy sounds/music that actually fit the concept of the game vs. some dinky sounding “midi-rock”? Yeah, easy choice for me. This is one reason I never bought the version that was released on Live Arcade last year…it has the original music. It applies to other things as well…sometimes, the original is not superior simply because it came first. Luther Vandross’ version of “Always and Forever”, for example…it destroys the original.
Suikoden Tactics beasts on every other Suikoden game (except possibly III, which I haven’t played).
Unlimited SaGa is a good game under the most horribly unintuitive interface ever, though whether it’s worth it or not sufferring in order to get the game is a different story.
I played the shit out of Pit-Fighter on my Genesis.
Ty was motherfucking solid. Kato, get the fuck out of here with your stupid ass punching combo that doesn’t even always land all the way. At least Buzz could piledriver some bitches, and he looked like an American Gladiator.
Fuckin’ forklift piled with cash. Oooohh shit.
Bonus rounds fighting your doppelganger for no reason. Always stomp the shit out of him after the match is over, for extra points. There is no mercy in Pit-Fighter.
If the enemy picks up the Power Pill though, GGPO sucka.
