| it has been a while since I have played this. I need to dust off the game and put some time back into it. I have a very nice arcade stick to use on it now! | |||

| I could write long and boring list of things which make VF4:Evo such a great game, but I wont instead I'll just leave this simple message: What Cloud said | |||

| whoah cloud i didnt bum it that hard lol maybe i'll give it another go i did only rent it. i prefer faster paced fighting. vf has always ruled though, wot was i thinking?!? | |||

| Heh... I wasn't going off on you or anything. It's just that when someone bashes VF, I tend to get a little nuts. You have no IDEA how badly I wanna beat the living crap out of people who say that "VF sucks! Tekken rules!" "It's call about Soul Calibur!" I get that a lot... Why don't these people play a FIGHTING game, ala Virtua Fighter, Dead or Alive, King of Fighters. Not a button masher ala Tekken or Soul Calibur.... | |||

| People that say that aren't serious fighting game fans. I never take mainstream gamers opinions too seriously. I've talked to people that have Xbox and Playstation 2, and they think they have every game console; at this point I don't care what that person thinks about Tekken or Virtua Fighter. But I liked Soul Calibur. | |||

Yes, very nice. How much did it cost you? <!--QuoteBegin-r acketboy@Jun 14, 2004 @ 03:49 PM I think Akuma was trying to mess with your head Naw, I was just trying to promote this thread. | ||||

This is nothing against Virtua Fighter, but I also really love Soul Calibur. I hardly think it's fair to call it a button masher. It is very easy for people new to the series to pick up the controller and start pulling off some very damaging (and cool) moves. And if they choose to randomly hit buttons, it is true that they can prove difficult for a seasoned player to defeat because of their unpredictability. However, I really think that's why the game is so popular. When my friends are over, most of whom have no experience with the game, they can still provide a challenge for me to beat. Many of my friends who normally never play fighting games find that they have a chance. I'm by no means a perfect player, but fighting button mashers greatly improve my reflexes. Anyone who's mastered a character will have no trouble destroying a button masher. Of course, the game isn't much fun if all you do is mash buttons either, and most people begin to master a character in order to get more out of the game. If you've ever seen two experienced players fight each other, it's impossible to deny the skill and character mastery they display. In summary, just because its learning curve isn't as steep as Virtua Fighter does not make it an inferior game. | ||||

| Haha, I can also say "what cloud said" to save myself some time from typing a similar message The game's amazing... and that's an understatement if there ever was one Too much craziness all over when it comes down to it... and the fact that it has "Virtua Fighter 10th Anniversary" in it makes it even better Whew... *shakes head, mumbles something, and walks away* ... | |||

| "You have no IDEA how badly I wanna beat the living crap out of people who say that "VF sucks! Tekken rules!" "It's call about Soul Calibur!"" heh. i happen to think tekken [tag, not 4] is the best fighter around, and i didn't like vf4: evolution enough to resist selling it back... to me vf4 and soul calibur both feel like the button bashers [don't even mention bloody dead or alive], but then again i'm a little biased [as is everyone], cos tekken's the one i'm good at | |||

| I felt like revisiting this thread again... VF4 and VF Evolution feel like buttons mashers?! NO! NO! NO! :rant Are you sure you didn't have Tekken in the console, and had the Evo case nearby? Perhaps the learning curve was just too steep for you.... :lol: Now, I do agree with you in saying that Soul Calibur is a button masher. :thumbs-up: Don't you dare ever call VF a button masher. It's the farthest thing from it! Anyway, do you guys really wanna know why I preferred VF over Tekken initially? I was a Tekken and VF nut when I first started, but here's why I liked VF more: There weren't any of those things of energy coming out when you hit a guy. I liked VF more simply because of that... :lol: | |||

| hehe yeah i totally agree that they should drop all the silly flame effects etc when you hit people in tekken. i think my problem with vf4 was definitely that, during the 2/3 weeks i had the game, i didn't really have anyone who was into it to play it with... so i was stuck with computer opponents / practicing etc. i can assure you it wasn't a problem with the learning curve i'd love to play some vf4 nutters sometime to see what the fuss is about you're a foo for not appreciating tekken though. i pity the foo. | |||
