There was just something special about those games...

DoA > Tekken > VF

I've always enjoyed Dead or alive more as well. I hope as time goes on and we get out of this faggy era people can appreciate them again.

Seeing this and Virtua Racing in person for the first time was pretty mind blowing. Top Skater too. The fps was so satisfying, you didn't even really notice how low poly the characters were.

There was clearly a hefty passion put into all Virtua games. Personally I've never grown tired of them.

VF = Tekken > Soul Calibur > Tobal >>> DoA

Bloody Roar > Tekken > Soulcalibur > VF > DoA > Tobal

Anyone who says tekken is good is lying. It's a fine game, but it was the retarded monkeys game for a reason.

Bloody roar was great, but in the same way mortal kombat was. Great to look at, and play for fun, but no more than that. I still own my old copies for that reason alone

Nah, Bloody Roar is by far the deepest 3D fighter with the most skill required to play.

I find early pre-rendered CGI even more soulful, especially when it was done by a no-budget dev that clearly barely knew the basics of how to design in this strange third dimension.

Fuck yeah did someone say Bloody Roar?

That's because flat polys are the new pixel art.

Damn I had no idea this game had so much tech

>>12163541
Feels like the game every fighting game enjoyer appreciates but hardly anyone plays

>>12162961 (OP)
limitations. uncanny valley
videogames is, and should be, all about imagination
it's the pitch black background from the NES taken to a different level
games must be all about imagination. the moment you put realism it's the moment you kill it. compare gta vice city gamplay to gta V gameplay

plus, the text fonts, these big, huge text. soul died when they use generic boring bland text font, which happens in recent games, all small, tiny letter which is boring as fuck
