I've been playing Real Bout Fatal Fury 2 for a few days. I really love this game. It's probably my favorite Fatal Fury game after Mark of the Wolves.

I would show no mercy. Back in the SFII days I watched an 8-year-old decimate a series of college guys at the arcade and learned a valuable lesson that day.

Next issue of Arcadia Magazine features Terry Bogard and the NeoGeo's 20th Anniversary. Will we finally get an update on King of Fighters XII? http://www.arcadiamagazine.com/cgi-bin/news_view.cgi?id=124

The current generation of handhelds are starved for fighters. I still bring my GB Micro everywhere with my for KoF EX 2. That game is the gold standard for handheld fighters. If only SNK would port that game to DS, giving me face access to all 4 face buttons, I'd buy it again.

Sorry, but it was a PS3 SE.

No real reason to. I don't own a 360, don't want one and none of my friends have 360s. I thought about going the PS2-only route as I have PS2>Gamecube, PS2>DC and PS2>PS3 converters.

I've stripped out my SE and I plan on putting in a Cthulhu for PS2/PS3 compatibility.

What's your connection speed? I get, on average, 16/6, with best case being 25/8.

I find TvC's online to be pretty good. I'd rate it on par with SFIV on PS3. I have put a lot of effort into getting the online to run smooth on both games. My PS3 and Wii are wired with the proper ports forwarded. I use OpenDNS on my Wii instead of my ISP DNS and that seems to have helped a bit...

I wouldn't say the fighting game scene was born from MvC2. As I recall, the fighting game scene was dwindling when MvC2 was released. The scene was born with SFII and continued with games like Dark Stalkers, Samurai Shodown, King of Fighters, etc. When I think of the roots of the Vs. series, I...

Exactly. How many Sentinel/Cable/Storm matches must we suffer?:bomb:

I think it's sad that MvC2 was added back in rather than 3S, which was the number 2 players choice game by vote. It's time for the fighting game community to move forward. Just as SFIV was adopted as the current Street Fighter, TvC needs to be accepted as the current Versus game.

If it goes to PSN, I'll get it. If it doesn't, I'll stick with my PS2 copy. The game is fun but not well balanced.

I'm starting a new stick project. My SFIV SE has been collecting dust since my HRAP3 plays backwards compatible PS2 games. I've decided to completely rebuild the SFIV SE as a PS2 arcade stick using a padhacked Type H controller. This way I'll have 1 stick to carry around to play against friends...
