Ah, here we are, the Top 10. And what a way to start it off with perhaps the best 3D fighting game of all time, Soul Calibur 2. I used to kinda like Tekken back in the day, but after a while I just grew tired of it and ended up hating it's game style. Then came Virtua Fighter, but the graphics of the early versions just turned me off so much, that I ended up playing Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat. I was basically that way until the Dreamcast came out and my friend got Soul Calibur for it. Never before had I seen such a gorgeous fighting game in the arcades or on a console. Sure Killer Instinct looked great, but it wasn't a true 3D game and the characters never looked THIS good. Well SC2 I feel, is SC1 with a bunch of improvements and newer characters so I chose this one over the first. Though this game seems very complicated, you don't need to know every damn move for every character to be good at it. Learn to block, throw, and use some of your key moves and you can have lots of fun playing against other people. It's definetly not a button masher and that's what I like about it. And what I even find more fun is pulling off those crazy moves but not knowing how you did it yet it totally destroys the other character. Not to mention the game moves so fluidly and just looks flat out good. |
