Title: What is your favorite fighting game on PS2?
Post by: marvelvscapcom2 on April 11, 2016, 02:38:39 am
Marvel Vs Capcom 2, Guilty Gear X2, Mortal Kombat Deception, Tekken Tag Tournament. Capcom vs Snk 2.  It goes on and on. So many decisions. Soul Caliber III and much more. As you can tell by my name my favorite is Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Even though I like the DC version better. It is still my favorite ps2 fighter. Which one do you like best?

I'm not a big fighting game fan. However it was probably that era that I played the most fighting games for.

Top has to be Marvel vs Capcom 2. I'm a big Marvel fan and I grew up playing Street Fighter 2 so it was a match made in heaven. Not that it was my first experience with the series; I remember playing Marvel Heroes vs Street Fighter in an arcade cabinet while on holiday. And later I regularly played XMen vs Streetfighter at a friend's; ha I once went on a 35 match winning streak against my friends with Cammy but my hands were so sore that I eventually fell to one of my friend's Akuma. Buy yeah loved MvC2; I was a mean Spider-man :D

Soul Calibur 2 is another one worth mentioning. Soul Blade was probably one of my favorite multiplayer games on the PlayStation 1 so I was straight on this when it came out. It's just a really solid fighter.

Lastly I'd go with Tekken Tag; it was the first fighting game I played on PS2, in fact probably one of the first games I played on the console overall and remained one of my favorite mutliplayer games the whole way through.

Guilty Gear X2 Accent Core Plus gets my vote. I haven't played it in years, but I used to practice it about an hour a day. It takes everything about the previous installments of GGX2 and tweaks them just right. Sure, some characters are still overpowered, but the game still retains that fast, insanely crazy, and intense feeling that started the with the first game. For those interested, I mained Venom.

As someone who's never even really watched Dragon Ball Z, I'd have to say Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 if my favorite. I got this one for my brother a while ago for a gift, little did I know I'd end up playing it too.

I have put the most time into SoulCalibur II and Dragonball Z: Budokai 2. Nearly done with the story modes, but it has been some years since I have played them.

Guilty Gear X2 Accent Core Plus for me, Guilty Gear is one of the best fighting series overall to me.

I'm a bit surprised no one else mentioned it, but I'd rate King of Fighters XI as the best one on the system, the best in the series since KoF 2002 (my long-standing fave), and honestly, one of the best fighters ever made. It may not win an award for graphics (though I honestly love the old Neo looking sprites), but it plays like an absolute dream and puts the average 3D fighter to shame.

I personally think the best KoF game on the ps2 is the king of fighters collection orochi saga wich includes the original KOF 98 without the small modifications and added characters wich were made on KOF 98 ultimate match wich is considered slightly better thanks to the small adds. Some tunes are different so I prefer the original over ultimate match.

KOF 98 is considered by many to be the best in the entire KOF series a true classic.

'98 is pretty great, but I always liked 2002 a bit more. Feels a little faster and snappier, and I'm a big Vanessa and Mature fan :D

Fair enough, aside from that, Vanessa does not make an appearance in both KOF 98 games.

Sonic the Fighters... my fovourite
Tekken 4 doesn't feel particularly good after returning to it recently.  I'm looking for Tag Tournament for nice and cheap, not platinum mind you

I was considering picking up a King of Fighter game a while ago, I'll take your word for it and see if I can track down Collection Orochi, thanks Marth!

I actually compiled a list of favorite PlayStation 2 fighting games not too long ago you could check out

All-Time Favorite PS2 Fighting Games (http://www.listal.com/list/top-50-favorite-fighting-games)

For domestic I would say Guilty Gear XX, and The King of Fighters XI. For import The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match.

EASILY King of Fighters 98: Ultimate Match! My GF and I have probably poured hundreds of hours into it, and at one time we were playing it like 2-hours almost every night. Second Place would be Marvel vs. Capcom 2; I actually like MvC2 more than KOF:98UM, but I don't like the PS2 port as much as the Dreamcast port.
