So, uh, five then? I remember Sagat(scar), M.Bison(hitler), Vega(homosexual), Ryu(The original cliche), Ken(looked just like the original cliche), Dhalism(limbs, made you think yoga might be cool), Blanka(Green). Yeah, others really didn't hang on. I mean I can barely remember any of the people from Third Strike or the Alpha series.Ice Cream Jonsey wrote:Raiden and Johnny Cage were also memorable. Raiden because he was preposterous and Cage because he punched people in the gob. You'll note that I do NOT say that Lui Kang was memorable. He was just an average Asian fellow. He would have fit in perfectly in Street Fighter. Forgettable.Worm wrote:Fuck, you're forty years old, okay, we motherfucking GET IT! MK had three memorable characters if you don't count the palette switch?
Mortal Kombat can have its piece of 'culture' because SF2 is part of video game 'culture' and that's the only one I can give a shit about.But these characters were discussed in a court of law. You have old Joe Lieberman expounding on the evil of the "rip the spine out guy," who everyone knows. I mean, be honest... you can shout out in a room of people tangentially interested in video games something like "GET OVER HERE!!!" and they will know what you're talking about. I just posted a thread in response to a dipshit ESPN anchor letting loose with a "FINISH HIM!" Mortal Kombat, like it or not, has become part of the culture. A small part, don't get me wrong, but it's nevertheless there. The people who like SF2 better are seeing this happen going, "But... but... noooo, Street Fighter is SUPERIOR!" Yeah, well, sorry but your guy lost. LOST. Sega and Nintendo weren't going to court over Street Fighter.
Well, just the ones I know of which is mainly the Queen of Hearts series and one based on Card captor Sakura. Almost all school based games feature guys, like Rival Schools for example.I stand corrected. When I am wrong in this thread and its three sisters I will admit it.In those games the girls are preteen.Aren't there games that have nothing but fighting schoolgirls?
Not if you listen to This guy.Worm wrote:Almost all school based games feature guys, like Rival Schools for example.
How are people losing arguments to you in your own mind when you CAN'T FUCKING SEE. Jones could tell you that Blanka came out in a wheelchair and you'd be forced to agree with him. And even this is secondary to the fact that your messages read like all your keys are shifted three over.Lysander wrote:Who the fuck are you?
It was funny before when I was linking the entirety of Shoryuken.com to this thread and watching their bloodpressures explode at Robb's complete lack of understanding on the subject but, who's this dude?
