Shorthand for a match where the players pick the same character.

I wonder why more fighting games recently don't try more different things. I mean right now we have, what, three basic archetypes with a bit of variation? Even indie fighting games end up being something like "Hey it's Third Strike where someone moved some supers around and put parry on a button", not that I don't plan to play the poo poo out of Yatagarasu.

Some indie fighting games are trying some cool new stuff, BaraBariBall comes to mind. And Dive Kick I guess.

Because most fighting games were born from the intent to cash in on the Street Fighter phenomenon and thus were content to use the same formula.

troofs posted:Wow, it's that kid everybody hated playing in videogames growing up. To be fair, his main point seems to be not so much that projectiles are cheap as that projectile spam is boring to watch. In other words, he wants to mix up the metagame to the benefit of spectators and general variety. FWIW, I disagree with his point (I find watching fighters try to control space with projectiles really interesting) and with his proposed solutions.

This was my favorite partquote:King of Fighters XIII is fun to watch but way overdependent on 50-hit super combos. Him not knowing why people cheered the Hakan counter pick is also precious.

No projectiles would mean no more gangster Balrog supers and ultras, and that would suck.

Projectiles and the more interesting movement style abilities are most of the reason 2D fighting games are really different and interesting in their own right as compared to 3D fighters and that's why they're also fun to watch and I'm just preaching to the choir but yeah.

Oh boy, there goes VentureBeat again. I remember an article they wrote some time ago about how Warhammer 40000 (a 25+ year old franchise) is totally a ripoff of Gears of War. And now all fighting games suck because players are lame and cheat. I think they write terrible articles to bait pageviews, that's got to be it.

You guys are making fun of him for the wrong reasons. He's not saying fireballs are cheap or anything, just that it might be fun for some people to play without them. What's retarded is that he thinks it's viable for a major tournament to play a game by house rules. When's Melee?

Safe jumps are way more annoying than zoning. They should do the honorable thing and let the opponent stand up before attacking.

You have not truly experienced Street Fighter under you have been put in the blender 20 games in a row by a Brazilian T. Hawk in Super Turbo. It's the most maddening thing, and the worst part is the utter certainty that it's all your fault for letting him in.

Is the entire GGPO thing nudge-nudge wink-wink or is there actually a way to obtain a license for these games? Would copying the bits from an original physical media even be legal?

If you legally own the board in question, there's nothing legally stopping you from making a digital backup of the board and using it on your computer.
