Killer Instinct, because it has a good amount of combos to make.

[montpics]

Mortal Kombat 2, as this game is the earliest ones that use real people in the game. :)

[mhl12]

well I don't play fighting games that much but Virtual Fighters was pretty fun.

also the Star Wars Master of Terakashi (or something like that) was a hilarious game as well

[TchuBacha]

I like the streets of rage series (Definatly 3), WU-tang Taste the pain and Tekken 3.

[The Milkman]

Soul Calibur for the Dreamcast is my favorite. It's also one of the few games to get a perfect 10 score on Gamespot :)

Tekken 3 or Soul Calibur 2. Haven't played too many others because I suck at this type of game, but I liked these two. Marvel vs. Capcom wasn't bad either, but that's one of those games where you have to know what you're doing.

[om3g4_prim3]

Soul calibur, Street fighter 4 (super), and Marvel vs Capcom.

[Donkote]

I really liked Tekken in the old days. I want to play Marvel vs Capcom 3 to see what it's like

[ewin00]

mortal kombat (not a 3d version) why? Bcoz i like the fighting style rapid punch

[M.afaqanjum228]

It's also one of the few games to get a perfect 10 score on GameSpot

[Peetr]

Dead Or Alive.

For obvious reasons.

[Esiqa]

I like to play "Street fighter". B,coz it is divided into levels..

[BrunoWills]

Monsters fight is my favorite fighting game. This is very interesting game.

My current favorite is Fighters Destiny because its surprisingly intricate for an N64 fighter and plays different alot different then the normal fighters, I definitely recommend giving it a go. (best if you run the game with the latest Direct64 plugin.)

[michelponting]

My favorite fighting game is Street Fighter. It is fantastic fighting game. Lee & E. Honda are my favorite character of this game.

[Adan8100]

Now a days,i like to play Worst of the worst: Shaq-Fu...
Really want to seen fight in reality there.....awesome....

[DragonMaster81]

My favirate fighting game series is Street Fighter(defienatly 4). It is a great game with multiple combos and characters. I love it.:D

[Zarathustrax]

I like a lot Soul Calibur, most of it cause the main history and the amazing gameplay. But my favorite of all is killer instinct (SNES) without any doubt the amazing combos you can manage, I love it.

[Outrider]

I can't decide. Over time, my fave fighting game changed and with 3D there are more good games.

2D: Garou - Mark of the Wolves, King of Fighters '98, Street Fighter 3trd Strike
3D: Tekken 4, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive 2

SNK is my favorite 2D fighting game vendor and for 3D fighting games its Namco. Also good catches are Fatal Fury Wild Ambition, Rival Schools, Bloody Roar, Super Smash Brothers, Samurai Shodown 4, Last Blade.

I never liked the Virtua Fighter series. But what I really hate is Mortal Kombat. It have the worst gameplay and no depth. From all popular fighting games, MK is the worst. I even liked Shaq-Fu better... And about Guilty Gear: Its a little bit funny, but I do not like it much (in the sense of gameplay, it has wonderful musics and design).

Killer Instinct for SNES was one of my faves too, back in time. But after time passed, I learned more and more games and better ones. From now, KI on SNES is not that good anymore.

[testmachine]

To me the Bloody Roar series are the best fighting games.They are made by Eighting/Raizing published by Hudson.

[GameGirl35]

I like the King of Fighters series, but yet to play the later editions of them.

[LMH]

I really liked Tekken in the old days. I want to play Marvel vs Capcom 3 to see what it's like

It looks good, plays well, has a lot of depth to it etc. If you're serious about 2D fighting games, it's definitely one you should have in your collection. However, there is a real lack of Street Fighter characters and for casual gamers (like my friends) it's just too noisy, overwhelmingly flashy and has too much to get to grips with (unlike Tekken, Soul Calibur etc.)

My favourite fighting game series has to be Tekken (even despite of the annoying loading times in Tekken 6). Street Fighter X Tekken is the favourite with me and my friends at the moment though. I love multiplayer fighting games that get everyone fired up and shouting :)

[foxswallows]

Dragon Ball Z fighters because of the speed and intensity of the fighting. One minute your on the ground punching then your in the sky throwing whatever you can at your opponent.

[flanks]

I'm rather new to fighting games; I only had someone teach me how to play in about 09. Super Street Fighter 4 (not arcade) is pretty rad, Mortal Kombat (the reboot) is real cool. I have a fondness for Darkstalkers, because the game is ridiculous and I may be the only person here to give serious love to Skullgirls.

I have a theory that to get into arcade fighting games (no good experience with tekken, but I've had some giggle on DOA for the 3DS), you need someone to seriously sit you down and play with you at a low level and explain to you how to pull off moves, when you might want to use them and some simple tactics. I've successfully done this with two people so far. Anyone else ever try to induct someone into the genre like this?

[Roor]

Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter...

[William Miller]

Mine too, Mortal Combat II and Street Fighter) When I was a kid I spent hours playing it)

[SuperMecha16]

I don't really have a favourite ONE. Although, I do have a great soft spot for certain Fighters.

Draglade (Nintendo DS): It's a very colourful 2D fighting game with RPG elements and contains characters who each use a different but awesome weapon.
Soulcalibur V (PS3): It's creativity (Creation Mode) and fighting with several kinds of weapons blended in one.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii): You can play up to 4 while controlling one of your favourite Nintendo heroes, heroines or villains and you can create your own stages (it's just a game full of content).
Tech Romancer (Dreamcast): The true fighting game for a Mecha fan.

I personally prefer fighting games in which characters aren't all just a bunch of fist-brawlers.

[michelponting]

My favorite fighting game is Street Fighter 4 because i like this game & this type of games are very interesting to play.

[Mupen64 Man]

SUPER SMASH BROTHERS MELEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! !!

[KevinLockard]

Not a big fan of fighting games, but it's a tie between Street Fighter 2: The New Challengers (Snes version) and Mortal Kombat 2 (Arcade version.)

[Kpeved]

Mortal Combat, because it's MORTAL!)

[Jaydens1]

Tekken 3 because playing this game since my childhood.

[deadlierprawn7]

deff, Mortal Kombat, no explanation needed

[GamerSam]

I'd probably go with SNK Vs CAPCOM 2 EO

[alexxi]

Smash Brothers(all of them especially melee) because it's fun to beat the crap out of other Nintendo characters with your favorite character.

[melodicwhirl]

Mortal Kombat is the only fighting game i played throughout history of consoles and gaming :D

[gamepadlvr]

Eternal champions
Primal rage
Rampage
Mortal Kombat,in general.To many lol
Clay fighter
Resurrection:Rise 2
Virtua fighter
Tekken
Bushido Blade
Fight night round 2 & up

[GameGirl35]

I like the King of Fighters and Street Fighter series. I also like Soul Edge, Soul Calibur IV and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[barcode386]

Mortal Kombat especially now that they released the arcade perfect ports to PC along with the Komplete Edition. Eternal Champions was pretty good too.

[irrelevant_pelican]

Street Fighter 2 Turbo is my favorite because my brother and I always used to play it, and we still play it today. The HD version is even better, I wish they would make a port for PC.

[hassaanspide]

My favorite fighting game is king of fighters 98...

[Machinedramon]

I would have to say digimon rumble arena since I can play as renamon xD

[TehCreeper]

Mortal Kombat

I loved to play it on my Wii, also it was fun because of the character customization

[Panteroxid]

Tekken Tag 2 is accessible and complex, so you can play with friends who don't know as much about the game and still enjoy it. Injustice is a pretty good game too and last year?s Divekick was quite a surprise, its really simple but addictive

[DotEmu]

There will always be a special place in my heart for umk3 (Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3) as it was the first fighting game I ever played, and still one of my favorites to date. Play it every now and again on MAME 0.154 x64. I like it because of the digitized characters and the brutal fast-pace combats. Also I find GGX2 (Guilty Gear X2 Reloaded) quite a fun game as well which is my near second favorite fighting game, for it's share epic characters, decent story and additive fast-pace fighting that makes you feel like a complete bad-ass.

[sallylm]

Kung Fu Grandpa. Help grandpa fight all the scum bags in his neighborhood and earn money in this fighting game.

[down51]

Samurai Shodown IV
Samurai Shodown V Special
Real Bout Fatal Fury Special
Bloody Roar II

[Tomtaru]

This thread is so old, it might already contain a reply by me... (you go find it, I'm too lazy to do so!)

I'm not so much into fighting games (not at all really, I'm a real button masher when my friends try to play these types of games with me). However, I do own quite a few dragonball games on my playstation 2... Out of those, my favourite would be Budokai 3.

[pacoxosope]

my favorite game arcade is kungfu fighter

[sallylm]

Real Steel World Robot Boxing Android game
