samurai showdown is the only fighting game i respect besides mortal kombat. the music is fucking great, characters were amazing and the original chop in half fatalities were hilarious.

the fact that you respect mortal kombat means that you know nothing about fighting games

you can deny it i guess, but mortal kombat had a huge following. it had a cult following just like SF.

i think also cause it wasn't animated. it seemed somewhat feasible to have these godlike beings wreck havoc inorder to captivate the player.

anyways... all i'm saying is that for the way it was presented, it was revolutionary for its time. although like you previously stated it didnt have any 50 hit combo's like killer instincts and the like. i do think it deserves some merit.

dude i cant believe you made a comment about fighting game quality and dissed mortal kombat.
please take your head out of your asshole. Mortal Kombat 2 & 3 have some of the finest gameplay ever in a 2d fighting game. There is non priority moves (unlike street fighter where a dragon uppercut will ALWAYS counter certain moves no matter what the timing). Everything is based on timing in mortal kombat, there was a block button (whats this hold back pussy bullshit). The juggle combo system has yet to be rivaled. There are conceptual special moves that only street fighter dreamed it was able to come up with.
your probably one of those guys who thinks Tekken is a quality fighting game, and if thats the case..... fuck you.

guilty gear x2 is my favorite 2d fighter next to street fighter alpha 3 - but i did enjoy some samurai showdown back in the day. i had the chugging genesis port that lacked earthquake but had amakusa.
my only personal problem with mortal kombat is that the combat is the old ones is SO reliant on special manuevers. every character has the same basic attacks and are only distinguished from each other by appearance (sometimes) and special moves. therefore, when playing a computer, you either get cheaped to death or well... cheaped to death. the dial-a-combos in mk3 were a nice addition but were basically just more special moves with multiple inputs. at least in street fighter each character had six different basic attacks, all unique to each character, with different movesets in the air and while crouching, with some variants depending on the opponent's range as time progressed in the series. and that was SNES days.
however, i would be lying if i said i didn't enjoy some mortal kombat. i like mk2 more than mk3, though i couldn't tell you why...

sean was a beast in new generation and second impact, but was severely gimped in third strike. but i definitely agree that he's a pretty good character if you know how to use him, which i do.
i recently had an epic match with a friend where i beat his chun li with my q. the kicker is that i even forgot to use q's taunt to beef him up!

i've always been a Bison fan myself - he destroys. but not alpha bison - i want classic Bison, like SFA3 C-Style or as they had him in the Capcom vs SNK games recently. Psycho Crusher all the way.
Though if I need a fireball user, my choice is Sagat. He was slow in Street Fighter II, but improved majorly upon his appearance in Alpha.

What's the one where you can turn an old man into a half bird half man fighter? He'd have a bird's head and feet. Every round gave the character a new weapon. It was an arcade game I was playing at a movie theatre.

I prefered Mortal Kombat to Streetfighter, still do. Also, Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance and Deception have vastly more complex and deep fighting mechanics than the recent Streetfighter games. I do agree though that the first game, whilst a classic, is very much of its time and is a bit simple.
