8 Upcoming Fighting Games Worth Brawling For

MP1st - "The past few years have seen an overwhelming resurgence in fighting game interest, and a number of titles have wowed critics and gamers alike."

SOD_Delta4572d ago

DoA5, SC5, and Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Those are my Fighters I'm getting next year. Can't wait.

Criminal4572d ago

Great picks! Mine are SC5, SFxTekken, and since I passed on Marvel vs. Capcom, I'll be getting the Ultimate version.

SOD_Delta4572d ago (Edited 4572d ago )

I played MvC3 and I did not like it. I'm wondering if I should give Ultimate version a try.

@ Criminal below. I think I may pick it up for Xmas. I did enjoy the art style of 3, but I hope they fixed the online for Ultimate.

@SOD_Delta

I think it'll go for $40, so it may be worth checking out.

StarWolf4572d ago (Edited 4572d ago )

then buy 1 and dont buy the rest? Why do you have to cry about it, no one is forcing you to buy the super or arcade versions . Im buying the 40 dollar Ultimate MvC 3 because I passed on the first one.

LastDance4571d ago (Edited 4571d ago )

Why? Because I dont posses the power to know which version of the game is going to be the 'definitive' one.

Ill have the last laugh because they will oversaturate the market, then we wont see any fighting games for a long while.

"The past few years have seen an overwhelming resurgence in fighting game interest,

prabaly gamers tired of FPS games now.

TrendyGamers4572d ago

I think Soul Calibur V is my most anticipated

Quagmire4571d ago

I wasnt gonna buy SCV.

But then they announced Ezio, and it shot up my list to pre-order status.

Along with that, I need to get Mortal Kombat, Tekken Hybrid, Tekken Tag 2, SFxTekken and the eventual TekkenXSF, and Ultimate MvC3. And maybe Ultimate Tenkaichi if the reviews are good. Still need to get Burst Limit.

john24572d ago

Since SFxT is coming to the PC, I'm looking forward to it :D

Mister_V4572d ago

God damn! I need to buy a PS3 so I can get my hands on Tekken Hybrid :(

Grizzl34572d ago

SFXT collector's edition is at the top of my list.

ZombieAssassin4572d ago

Street Fighter X Tekken game.
Build-It-Yourself Arcade Cabinet Bank (approximately 5”H)
Exclusive Prequel Comic Book by UDON
36 Gems: Includes All Pre-Order Packs Plus An Exclusive Pack!
Pre-Order Bonus: Nine Exclusive Gems Only Available For Pre-Ordering SE.

Street Fighter X Tekken May Be Purchasable On Steam Soon

Or it's about to leave the storefront like another Capcom title.

Darkegg104d ago

When they announce tekken x street fighter, let me know.

Soulcalibur 5 will be delisted next week on PS3 and Xbox 360

Soulcalibur official Twitter: "Valiant Warriors - Soul Calibur V is taking its final curtain call on the stage of history and will be sunset on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on June 19, 2023. The base game and all associated DLC will no longer be available for purchase. Thank you for your continued support."

-Mika-321d ago

This is why guest characters shouldn't be on the base roster. Im sure Ezio and the whole Assassin's Creed stuff license expired and that is why it is being removed. The same thing is probably going to happen to Soul Calibur 6 in 10 years.

Terry_B321d ago

I doubt a lot of people still played the worst SC game over 10 years after its release on dead consoles.

blackblades321d ago

Right whoever wanted the game would've had it by now. Also physical is usually the better option

gold_drake321d ago

damn.

alot of games have been delisted recently.

Nyxus321d ago

Meanwhile several big games are going digital only. Good omen for the future...

MadLad321d ago

I've been mainly gaming on PC for 12 years now. I don't think there was ever a game that was actually taken away from me.
Even the multiplayer-focused games, with their servers typically being taken down, you can still host your own.

Not sure why People are so against digital. You still need online infrastructure just to update your games or to patch them. You're stuck to online/digital one way or another.

Nyxus321d ago

Most games play just fine without an internet connection. There are also other reason aside from preservation, digital games are often more expensive (at least the one I'm buying) than what you can find through deals in stores. But most of all I just like to be able to actually own the games as physical objects, being able to lend them out etc. And be assured that I can still play them in the future. Sure you can probably emulate them, but I prefer to play on console and I'd rather play an actual copy than an emulation anyway.

I'm not against digital in itself, I just don't want to be forced to go digital because the physical option is taken away. Just give people the option to either get it physically or digitally, that way everyone is happy and it's also the best way to preserve games for the future.

CrimsonWing69321d ago

Make your peace with it. It’s the direction the industry is going in.

XiNatsuDragnel321d ago

Well industry is pretty much dead in that case.

lucian229321d ago

Can we please get soul cal 7 a year after tekken 8?

darthv72321d ago

Good thing I have both on disc.

Street Fighter X Tekken - A Look Back at the Franchise's Biggest Misfire

With Street Fighter 6 now upon us, it's time to look back at some classic Street Fighter titles, beginning with Street Fighter X Tekken.

boing1326d ago

It was a cool gamble imo. In reality, everyone were waiting for Namco version, Tekken X Street Fighter.

Ryuha1234h326d ago

I don’t know. I enjoyed this game. I thought it was a great crossover.

TricksterArrow326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Yep, played very little of it, but from what I played, it was serviceable enough. Could've been better? Yes, but then again, you can say that about pretty much anything.

maniacmayhem326d ago

What killed this game was their planned reliance on GaaS with the whole gem system. It made little sense and made the game extremely unbalanced. Not to mention the unbalance of most of the characters, especially on the Tekken side

Sgt_Slaughter326d ago

Ahhh the game that Capcom had DLC on the disc on release yet you had to pay to unlock it
