|  "3D fighter lovin' right here!"
, posted Fri 30 Aug 14:15
Personally I put 3D fighting games on the same level as 2D fighting games. The fact of the matter is, I like fighting games. No, I LOVE fighting games.
However, as far as 3D fighting games go there is a fair share of crap with a capital C. I was once a hardcore fan of VF and Fighting Vipers, but now I have only a passing interest. I'm really into the Power Stone series, the Tekken series, the Soul Edge series, the Rival Schools series, and the Star Gladiator series.
Also, I seem to be one of the very few that has actually played Samurai Showdown 64. I've heard that the later 3D SamSho games are crap, but I don't think those people got a chance to play the original SamSho 64. That game was pure awesomeness, and I actually put it on the same level as SamSho 2.
In closing, I would like to say that SFEX is a travesty that never should have happened (sorry Onslaught). As long as Capcom itself is developing this new "Capcom All-stars" game it should still be awesome.

I like Power Stone, Calibur and the training modes of SF EX 1 and 2 (Is there a training mode in EX3 on PS2? if so, I might consider buy it...).
Ah, it saddens my heart that many people in here bash SF ex...
The game is a gem that only a few appreciate, and those who do, know the true meaning of the battle (Well, not exactly, but something along those lines)
And I agree with Iggy, the training mode is AWESOME! best extra mode on ANY fighter!
BTW Iggy, I demand the return of your former avatar, the duck is cool, but the dog is very cute. Do it, and I will remove the mighty pussy from my avatar.

i like certain 3d fighters. some of them are too weird to me.
soul edge
rival schools/project justice
and, to some degree, tekken 3 was okay
Zyzyfer, what's your quote from? On topic, I like lots of 3d fighters. DoA2 and 3, Soul Edge series, Virtua Fighter series, Rival schools series, I'm not too big on tekken though, i did like FF:wild ambition...

Most people who play 2-d competitively, will also be very decent 3-d fighter players. I used to play 2d fighters like Capcom's CVS2 competitively (I quit cause I got bored of CVS2 Import DC), and just started back up recently. Unless you live in a place where there are great fighters - I find that most 2d/3d fighters get boring quickly. That's why you need to play both types. I'm hardcore on Namco's and Capcom's fighters. I own probably every single game they have released recently (after SF2 / Tekken). Again I have to say it's all about "if people play the game."
For any fighting game if there is competition - people will play. For example, there is a VF3 machine in my local arcade, but no one plays it. Thus I stopped playing it. Why did I start back at CVS2? cause the competition wasn't as boring later on (less crappy/scrubby).
I do hate some fighting games though. I really find MVS2 to be the shittiest, cheapest, no real skill (relative to other fighters) fighting game. It's not balanced, nor does it have great play mechanics. I was hardcore enough to buy every single VS game for SATURN IMPORT - but after seeing the bullshit of MVC2, I had to stop. I even bought the import version for DC - but hated it in the arcade.
About the dying Neo scene. I love NeoGeo but my arcade doesn't have MOTW, LB2, or SS4. Sad. It even has a MVS cabinet, too. But only Metal Slug X and SS2.
play competitively:
Tekken 4, SC2, Virtua Fighter 3TB (import DC).
2d: CVS2, CVS1 (i hate it), Three series, EX plus Alpha, Zero2, KOF 2K1/2K, MOTW, LB2, SS4.

With the new talk about the new Capcom game, majority of the people are diguisted, but I'm really excited about it. It brought to this question, do any of you guys like 3D fighters? I've been a hardcore Tekken fan since I got Tekken 1 on PS1. I also like all the Capcom 3D games such as Power Stone, Rival Schools, and Street Fighter EX.
aish ...

Star Gladiator 2
Street Fighter EX (any of them, although I only own EX3)
Rival Schools, Project Justice
Virtua Fighter 4 (although occasionally Fighters Megamix)
Samurai Shodown 64 1 or 2 (mainly 2, I hardly get the chance to play 1)
I would've added Soul Calibur if it wasn't for the fact the DC game burned me out after all-clearing the darn thing's quest mode. Although Soul Calibur 2 is mostly the same, I am beginning to get suckered by Conquest mode, which is kind of a poor man's version of the AI training mode in VF4.
I also occasionally play Tekken (3 or 4, rarely Tag) if I'm bored; I don't get much satisfaction out of playing that for some reason (compared to VF4).
For the most part, though, I don't get what the big deal is between 2D and 3D, the only difference I see is in graphical presentation.
