@RussellGorall @Vanine_28 MP3 had awesome graphics. Not sure about consoles but on PC Max Payne 3 actually set some pretty high standards for character model realism.
@nightshade_01 I'm still trying to cope with the obviously now-permanent confusion between "then" and "than" (which seems to be going viral and afflicting more people each day), the confusion between "your" and "you're", and the confusion between "they're", "their", and "there". It almost seems like people didn't go to school or don't attend anymore, depending on age. I guess as long as you have a job and can afford a game console, it doesn't matter how bad your grammar is :-|
@gaming_binge @KaSeRRoR @devastator1991 MK3 was the most chaotic fighting game ever and I miss some of its elements that are missing from today's MK titles.
@tjoeb123 Yeah I agree with the announcer's voice for SSF4AE, I don't know what they were thinking but they overdid it majorly with that voice over guy. The one for SF4 was much more exciting and better. The one from MVC2 was even better IMO. Had a ton of fun with SF4 online, they really did well with that transition back into 3d.
I think 3d fighters should go full 3d like SC and Tekken series, allow rotation of camera and character movement around opponent. Stories need to be better. I don't know how much production costs have increased for fighting game devs but they ought to spend more and have some epic cutscenes and invest in people that can write good stories, they really do matter! It's real disappointing when you finish the game and only get a quick slideshow with some text.
MK series I think is doing their best to make it more engaging and story-driven. They really seemed to have given it their best with Injustice.
Imagine if a dev like Rockstar got into fighting games. As ambitious as they are I'm sure their game would be really great.
@tjoeb123 Good point. I think fighting games should have as many extra modes non-fighting modes as possible. Maybe even include the ability to explore arenas. Story focus would help too. Story driven games seem to dominate in today's market so making stories better and character endings more epic should be their focus.
Fighting games always had a learning curve. Are people just whiny more today or are they more obsessed with shooters? Fighting games were more popular before when FPS games didn't exist. I don't know what the real reason is that people don't seem to enjoy it as much. Even back when we didn't have any online multiplayer you would just get the game and play with your siblings and friends and against the CPU to get the ending for each character. Now that we DO have online multiplayer you would think more people would dig fighting games, but nooo, they still want to whine. If you quit something because "it's too hard", the only thing you can really blame is yourself.
@keymaster7 I love that she swears so much I think it's cute and sexy and didn't know she was such a lil potty mouth lol. I'm all of a sudden in a mood to watch Jennifer Carpenter swear my ears off on Dexter.
