Agreed...even if that is the most backhanded compliment ever.

[geomega]

so it goes like this...

1- street fighter x tekken

2- blazblue cs ex

3- MvC 3 ultimate

4- tekken tag tournament 2 arcade only

5- kof XIII

[JAVH]

Lol, any game is better than UMvC3

If a game requires updates then is not the best game, is disgusting you need your wallet for be stronger you chars (gems) instead skilling

[vectorsigma]

so it goes like this...

1- street fighter x tekken

2- blazblue cs ex

3- MvC 3 ultimate

4- tekken tag tournament 2 arcade only

5- kof XIII

to post such blasphemy in a kof forum...

[00Bear00]

so it goes like this...

1- street fighter x tekken  (game so broke and 20% of the characters are DLC)

2- blazblue cs ex (nice game but annual updates and DLC are pretty pointless)

3- MvC 3 ultimate (because if capcom fucks up a game everyone will buy the sequel)

4- tekken tag tournament 2 arcade only (fun game)

5- kof XIII (took a while to get to consoles and not noob friendly....but thats not too bad a thing)

so...why is KOF XIII is no.5 on your list beside netcode?

Seeing the name of who posted, I bet it's along the lines of "Blazblue trumps it in terms of sprites..."

[Running Wild]

Well if you wanna get technical, BlazBlue's sprites are actually HD and they have about several times more animations than you're average KOFXIII character.

But despite that, XIII's sprites are hella more detailed and fluid, with wicked levels of color separation no other 2D fighting game out there has.

bought the game (20 dlls lol), still I cant understand why I cant do LP MP HP + Special Move,MP HP Special move or LP + HP Special move but if you press the HP or HK is a instant launcher in the "combo" unless you do a EX move 

[Running Wild]

They dropped the ball on the way chain combos work in the game.

You can't cancel them into specials, only EX or supers. But some Tekken chars have unique chains that are cancelable. It's weird.

[PureYeti]

I know its weird. It throw me off when I was playing the street fighter characters.

[Mai~Crimsonheart]

Its why i prefer the tekken characters.

Its their "thing", the same way the SF characters have excessive fireball mashing as a "thing". The tekken characters are much preferable to me.

I use Lili A lot and usually put her with Julia. I also got Nina and Hwarang in training.

However, Poison and Chun li play nicely, i could get used to them.

[TheDuskwalker]

I just tried Poison last night for the first time, I don't get why she doesn't have different far and close standing normals like other SF characters, same for having neutral jump normals. It kind of makes sense for the Tekken characters. Then again while I've not tried him yet, didn't seem like Hugo did either. What about Rolento? If all the non SFIV copy and paste jobs lack different far/close normals and neutral jumps I'm calling lazyness on that.

Anyway this is part of the reason this game is so awkwardly balanced. Seems like SF characters generally have higher priority attacks and a much better footsies game, but Tekken characters have much better combo options and mixups while some SF characters just seem very lacking. After playing Lili/Juri team to death, been practicing Lili/Cammy and Cammy just seems so limited in this game. Juri turned out very well though, and I would say she has probably the best super in the game.

Edit: Some serious news.
