If you often read my posts then you know I have an obsession with fighting games. I just love to play fighting games and mostly like to write about them, that’s why my recent post was on Tekken. Most of the gamers are always like to play shooting games because they are easily available and fun to play with friends and a major number of friends. But in fighting games only two of four friends can play at once then others have to watch. Even if you are watching their gameplay you can feel like you are playing yourself. In most of the fighting games, you have to use, screens which have less refresh rate like 2ms or so. If you love fighting games or new in this genre, then you will often deal with many technical terms like above. Now with no further due here are the top 5 fighting games in my views.
Tekken Series.
Yes, it was obvious that “Tekken” is going to take the first place on my list. There are reasons why I choose this games as number one. One of the reason is, if you search for top fighting games on google you will come up with Tekken as the first top fighting game.
This is one of the best fighting games on console till the date. In every installment of this game, you will get new playable characters as well as new moves for stock playable characters. The thing which makes this games unique is the 3D playable environment. By which you can move around your opponent.
While playing this game you can side step to avoid your opponents attack. If you get best graphics with 3D playable environment then it automatically becomes the best fighting game. World greatest fighting game tournaments also have a big slot for this game. Most played Version of this game is Tekken 3 which is still played in India. Most of the Indian players know Tekken 3 as their first fighting ever played.
You can also start playing this game as a startup in fighting game genre. If you want to take part in global level tournaments of this game then I will suggest you start with Tekken 5, because it gives you the basic knowledge of the game engine( how this game works.)
Street Fighter Series.
This is the only game which stands toe to toe with Tekken in my views. Not only because this game have the same level of craziness around the world as Tekken, but it also provide premium fighting game experience to the players.
I have met many Street Fighter player and they also think after Street Fighter they want to play Tekken but as the fighting game player, you have to understand that you can only be a master in one game. There are very a minimal number of players who are good at more than two fighting games.
Street Fighter series always stuck with their 2D playable environment. It is one of the oldest fighting games. It contains amazing graphics and playable characters. Every Character has his unique fighting style. And the most famous thing and what I love about this games is when your character shoots its “chi” to attack his opponent (in simple word “had woken”).
MVC Series
If you are a hardcore fan of Marvel Heroes and want them to fight with other game’s character then MVC is your game. Marvel Vs Capcom is one of the renowned game around the Superhero geeks and full-time gamers. In this game, you can make a team of superheroes, Capcom player or Supervillains with three playable characters.
The best thing about this game is, developers molded the signature and known attacks of Marvel and Capcom characters for e.g. Ironman contains his Unibeam which is a very popular attack of Iron Man.
After playing this game you will know more about the Marvel and Capcom characters present in their respective universes than your friends. You know there are several characters which are not very popular in Capcom universe as well as Marvel Universe but they exist.
Final comments about this game are you will not be disappointed if you play this game for fun or as a pro.
Mortal Kombat Series.
If you are a person who gets dizzy after seen a small amount of blood and you vomit after seeing something horrible then you have to avoid this game. Because this a game famous for its brutal killing animation.
This game also has 2D playable environment. In its latest installment, you can watch your opponent die in HD graphics. This game has very amazing graphics and that is not the only this which is great about this game. The variety of characters given by the game.
Unlike above games, this fighting game also has a great story line. As much I like to kill my opponent with Fatality, I also love to take a grab every time. You can also say that it is more like Street Fighter but with much more brutality. Its latest installment gained much more fame than any other version of the game. Most games also tried to be like Mortal Kombat but they all failed.
If your parents don’t want you to play video games then it is probably because they have seen or played this game. Most of the phycologist found responsible this game for making a player more aggressive. Maybe they are right or maybe not. But one thing is clear the company doesn't give a damn about it and me also.
King of Fighters Series.
Most of you were thinking that he will choose Soul Caliber next and he is going with the official list, but no. I am just giving you my version of fighting games list as the title describes. Anyway, King of fighters is one of the old games who deserve to be in this era of gaming with new installments.
It also follows the traditional 2D playable environment. But with some exciting feature like you have to choose three different characters which allow you to play more than single playable character games like Tekken and street Fighter.
The animation of this game is pretty flashy and amazing according to the era in which it gave an amazing competition to other fighting game. This game is one of those games which you have to play at least one time.
I hope you agree with my list. Tell your favorite fighting game in comments.
