I almost forgot that I was doing these! Special thanks goes out to Dominus for tallying up the votes from the last one. Here's the results:

Street Fighter 2-9
Samurai Showdown-8.35
Virtua Fighter-5.33
Fatal Fury-5.18
Art of Fighting-4.82

And now for round 2:

Killer Instinct
War Gods

Weaponlord
Soul Edge/Blade

Cyberbots
Jojo's Adventure

Kizuna Encounter
Kabuki Klash

World Heroes
Double Dragon (Neo Geo)

My opinions:
Killer Instinct-6 Not the worst game in the world, but that combo system was pure crap. I liked some of the character designs though.

War Gods-1 There was nothing, and I mean NOTHING, good about this game.

Weaponlord-5 Um, It's been a while since I played this, and I didn't play it too much then, but I do remember not being too impressed by it...

Soul Edge-9 Awesome for its time, but SC totally makes this game look passe. Some of the best endings in a fighting game ever (in Soul Blade).

Cyberbots-To be honest, I have never played this game. Although I want to, REALLY bad.

Jojo's Adventure-4 I just don't like this game. A few (and I mean few) of the characters had good designs, but it just didn't feel good.

Kizuna Encounter-2 I'll give it credit for being the first tag fighter, but this game is just awful, from the gameplay to the character designs.

Kabuki Klash-8 Now here's an interesting game. It reminded me of a cartoony Samurai Showdown, and the gameplay, character designs, and even the graphics were ahead of their time.

World Heroes-8 This was fun back in the day, and I loved the special moves. I mean, when's the last time someone threw a fireball that looks like a pirate ship?

Double Dragon-1 I never, ever want to even see this game again. I liked, no, loved the DD beat 'em ups, but after seeing this game (and the fighting game before it that was released for the SNES and Genesis) I just wanted DD to die. Hopefully Rage of the Dragons will restore my faith in DD, although I'd MUCH rather see a new DD beat 'em up than a fighting game.

Your picks?

Killer Instinct - 3. DJ Combo can... combo.
Uh, didn't like the game very much.

War Gods - 1. Horrible game :p

Weaponlord - 4. I played it a bit, but it
was an average game at most.

Soul Edge - 9. Wonderful game which I played
to death in the arcades (and then my PS)
when it was released. Would get a 10 if it
had Ivy ^_^

Cyberbots - 8. It has Jin and Devilot! :)

Jojo's Adventure - 8. Since I follow the
comic I was so happy when this game was
released. I still play it even today.

Kizuna Encounter - 3. Wasn't very impressed
by the system and graphics when it first
came out.

Kabuki Klash - 4. A bit fun to play and some
of the character designs were quite likable,
but I grew bored of it fast.

World Heroes - 6. Two words: cheesy fun :)

Double Dragon - 1. Good example of a
fighting game done horribly wrong! ^_^

Her I go:

Killer Instinct 8 I liked it, but it's not the best in the world, that's for sure. The cpu is CHEAP.
War Gods 1 Arggg...

Weaponlord ??? Never played.
Soul Edge/Blade 9.5 As far as 3D fighter are concerned, the "Soul" saga is my favourite. And this game is the responsible.

Cyberbots 6 I've only played once, but I didn't like it much.
Jojo's Adventure 7 Played only twice. Seems original, but too odd.

Kizuna Encounter 4 Bad game, although not ultra-crap.
Kabuki Klash 8 Good!! When I first saw in the arcade I was still under the SS influence, and the change was well recieved.

World Heroes 6.5 Funny at it's moment. Now is at best, boring.
Double Dragon (Neo Geo) 7 I liked it. OK, not the best fighter in the world, but entertaining enough.

Killer Instinct 7-it was O.K. SabreWolf was the only character that interested me.
War Gods 0-WACK!

Weaponlord-?
Soul Edge/Blade-5

Cyberbots 7-looked kind of boring. But in a way,was cool.
Jojo's Adventure 7-the character designs weren't that great(except for Joesph Joestar and Muhammad Avdol)but the stands made up for that a bit. Good story,too.

Kizuna Encounter 3-looked like shit.
Kabuki Klash-?
World Heroes 1-STEREOTYPES GALORE! Good graphics,but miserable gameplay and characters.
Double Dragon ?-I never played this.

Soul Edge/Blade: 9, awesome back then.

Cyberbots: 8, mostly because Devilot is there!

World Heroes: 3 never understood what everyone liked about it...

Killer Instinct - Never played
War Gods - Never played

Weaponlord - Never Played
Soul Edge/Blade - 8.5 Very interesting charcaters and gameplay

Cyberbots - Never played
Jojo's Adventure - 6.5 Interesting game, but graphics wise...

Kizuna Encounter - 6 Gameplay and character wise not that exciting, but provide some entertainment
Kabuki Klash - 7 CUTE! =)

World Heroes - 8 It was innovative at that time as it was bold to use some of the more unique characters at that time. Nobody at that time had fighting characters like ninja, bruce lee, robot, mongolia warrior, pirate, viking, cannibal (!?) etc. We should give credit for that!! Of course not until World Heroes Perfect and Jet ruined everything...

Double Dragon (Neo Geo)- 5 Not that entertaining as a fighting game, but it tried...

The only antidote to my poison is death...Hey! No fair! You have a resurrection move??
