Things get pretty HEATED in here, but a reminder. These group Top 10's are a delegation of our personal pics. We have to provide convincing arguments, make allies, and try to debate others why our picks for top 10 games, should make it in or shouldn't. It's the reason why we're unable to champion ALL games, because we can only provide personal experience and argument to their conclusion. Therefore, almost any these Top 10s isn't a personal list, it's a group list. If you want to see my personal top 10 fighting games, it's right here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6rIgmN8ibGYbK8si=C2Po15L2KmPdyoCL

Steve fights admirably, but he fights hardest for the lost causes. Tekken 5 over Tekken 3? In what world does that fly? The same world where pigs also fly.

[@stevesteve0521]

Soul calibur 1 isn’t even the best game in the franchise and probably not even the second best (most people will argue 6 is better and some will say 3) so how in the world is it the best fighting game of all time?

[@leithaziz2716]

@bulb9970 Newsflash: That's 90% of fighting game glaze discourse. "fr bro, the old game was way better than today's entry". I like Xrd a lot, it might be my favorite Guilty Gear, but that game has PROBLEMS. I'm talking poorly executed mechanics and wacky balance. But people seem to forget them when they talk about how perfect that game was when they try to dismiss Strive. I can make this argument for MK fandom discourse or Tekken discourse. It's everywhere. Sure, you can try to make a genuine argument in good faith, but try not to act like you've played the game you're talking about. I see people honeymoon titles they've never touched all the time.

[@BingusBiggums]

Queue the always sunny theme

[@nathanrodriguez914nr]

I hate the argument of Impact being used. With that argument, nothing new can ever be considered great. No matter how good a game is or how hard it was worked on, it cant be considered one of the greatest of all time because it was influenced by something before it.

[@Sonicfalcon16]

That's a good point

[@Roflcrabs]

It's a tricky one to navigate. Impact isn't the best word. There's credit in revolutionizing and thinking outside the box relative to the times they were made. There's also credit in refining and polishing what's good. There's merit to both

[@konkaiwa515]

I think that's fair that nothing new could ever be considered the greatest of all time. so many games have shot themselves in the foot gameplay wise over the years through various updates and patches and the potential for that to happen always exists with new games. A truly greatest game of all time should be able to stand the test of time so the new games will have to wait

[@kaitourobin840]

​​@@konkaiwa515True. There is a difference between the "greatest game" and "greatest game of All Time." Which implies passing of time.

[@ReeseArt]

Old games were for the most part complete as it is in box. Now with patches, DLC etc, which version are you talking about?

[@tamaskalem1492]

There's a good argument here on how much you want to give to the influence and impact of a game as opposed to whether or not the overall quality is still great to this day. Depending on where you lean on either side would heavily affect your list.

[@wynnjones2435]

i think I'm with Steve, get them old ahh games outa there, the were improved upon later. just because something started somethin doesn't mean it's better lol

[@ThatGuysAlright]

​​@@wynnjones2435 I agree to some extent, but there are franchises, genres, and technologies that wouldn't exist without some of the oldies! You have to give them their flowers, even if games from 20 years later improved on the formula. We have to look at overall impact and foundation for the time they released - otherwise every best game would just be what's most recent. Games we would call GOATs now we would throw away in a couple years by that logic. I think the best middle ground are classics that have still held up well. If you can fire it up today and enjoy yourself with no nostalgia attached, then you know it's Goated

[@wynnjones2435]

@@ThatGuysAlright agreed but that also why they can just get an honorable mention

[@mallow2902]

I would agree if the modern games actually were better. Street Fighter 6 for instance? Worse than Third Strike for sure. Marvel 2 and 3 are both better than Infinite. The big one for me personally is Xrd Rev2 vs Strive, and Xrd Rev2 is my number 1 of all time while Strive is one of my least favorites. I would agree with Steve on Tekken 5 over 3 though because Tekken 5 is potentially the best Tekken game, full stop. For me it feels like a lot of these series peaked somewhere in the middle, not the beginning or end.

Tbh, the omission of Simmons for this particular list is apparent simply because he is, technically speaking, the quality control of the group.

53:30 I remember that day so well! It was a dark day that pushed Max to Frieza levels of angry at that Namekian and Saiyan back there. It was also nice because Max doesn't generally get explosive when he's really choked, he just gets zapped of his positive energy; but Steve and Kenny just had this moment of "That was a little too much" and just brought the room energy down to calm(without getting counter-grumpy or something like that), to let Max cool off and recover. Pretty much how guys say "Hey, we're sorry man, but we can't bring ourselves to actually say sorry right now.". It really was a beautiful friendship moment.

Street fighter 2 single handedly created the fighting game genre. Evo, tournaments, steaming, online games,owe recognition to the creation of a online sport. Street fighter 2 changed everything.

[@Roflcrabs]

I never played SF2 until lockdown. Never really liked Street Fighter growing up was more into Tekken but got an SF2 arcade machine dirt cheap in 2020 and it's so good. I'd still put Tekken 3 over SF2 personally but objectively SF2 has to be number 1 at least if "impact" is a factor. It's a safe and boring choice but as someone with zero nostalgic ties to it it's simple, fun, revolutionary. I do suck at fighting games so I'm probably dismissing a lot of what makes MVC2 and SF3 fun, they're fun games but way too crazy especially MVC2. I've sunk maybe 12 hours into SF3 and MVC2, fun but I still have no idea what I'm doing in them. SF2 is more approachable. Soul Calibur is great, I can't really think of any negatives but I found the combat kinda boring, at least compared to everything else in the top 5. Sticking with everything in their top 5 I'd go: 1. Tekken 3 2. SF2 3. Soul Calibur 4. MVC2 5. SF3 But I think objectively I'd move SF2 over Tekken 3.. objectively SF2 deserves no. 1 but personally Tekken 3 is my goat.

[@jeice2226]

Proof positive that the Dreamcast was one of the greatest videogame consoles of all time!

[@palody_en-ja]

It was quickly eclipsed since Sega was first to leave the gate, but the leap from PS1/Saturn/64 to the Dreamcast was HUGE! Arcade hardware was still more powerful, but it was definitely an eye-opening experience since it'd never come so close for the price. Soul Calibur was a next generation remake without saying so, and that really caught us off guard in the best way possible.

[@grizzlywhisker]

The cool thing about Dreamcast is that it didn't feel like it was competing with the other consoles, like it was sort of its own thing. It came out at a weird time between the N64 gen and the PS2 gen so it got ports from both eras and had it's own unique arcade style stuff.

your whole modern ecosystem exists in its current form because of Street Fighter 4. Without that, tournaments would still be played in shady auditoriums and only a few 3rd strike clips here and there getting onto youtube

[@maskofacryingclown3]

Yyeah this whole list is Max bias. Third strike along with smash and killer instinct should not be top 10. But then Again this is their list so it's nothing official. I was acting like Steve the whole time while watching this. I was mad that SF4 was the last game to be put on the list when it should be in top 10 easy

[@SinghReviewingThings]

1000% I made this comment just now as well. SF4 saved the fighting game genre and deserves to be in this list.

I gotta be honest I want to see a top fighting game list between them where impact is not a actor. A pure gameplay, music, etc. List. No smash, no Sf2, just pure favorite games they want to play.

[@MrBoxreviews]

Eh I feel like impact wasn’t a factor because MK2 did not make top 10

[@RednekGamurz]

@@MrBoxreviews Impact is basically the only reason Smash Ult and SF2 made the top 10 lol.

[@MrBoxreviews]

@@RednekGamurz SF2 sure, but smash ultimate is definitely deserving of just being top 10 without “impact” being a factor. That’s a reach

[@RednekGamurz]

@@MrBoxreviews Smash Ult isn't even the best Smash or plat fighter. Single player offering is weak, the input buffering system is ass, and comp play is overly defensive and campy. People just like Ult because it's filled to the brim with characters, stages, and music, but quantity does not equal quality.

@ that’s your personal opinion. There is a reason it is the highest selling fighting game of all time. To leave it out of the top 10 is silly. Casuals love it

[@sawyeratkinson]

every game that got eliminated was "oh its a top 20 for sure"... i honestly feel the list for 10-20 would be even more insane

[@leithaziz2716]

My personal opinion: the best fighting game is the one that means the most to you. I don't really feel the need to create an elimination process. If there's one more argument I can give in MK9's favour compared to MKX (and I like X a lot) is that beyond the Story Mode, there's just a lot more content. You had Test Your Might, Test Your Sight, a fully functional Tag Team mode and a 300 mission tower where all of them are unique. In my opinion, that's the best that MK got to selling an audience on mere content since Deception's Konquest mode.

[@timcox-rivers9351]

Yep that's why even though I know they are objectively trash, Bloody Roar Extreme, Rival Schools, Melee, Psychic Force 2012, Battle Arena Toshinden on GameBoy, are somewhere on my list. probably not all top 10 but certainly top 20.

[@nutbutter1410]

[@LD-yy6qt]

With impact>everything. Doesn't that just mean newer games will never be considered better than older fgs. Mk2, Sf2, T3 can't just automatically be considered "better" than most newer games coz of impact. Fighting games were much bigger in the gaming industry back then so no newer fg is gonna reach that level of impact with how the gaming industry has developed. It was also much easier to innovate back then coz these games had very few installations. Maybe there should just be top 10 older fgs and top 10 modern fgs.

[@Shodan130]

yea the impact arguement is silly because if that was the case it would just be SF2 and VF1 and nothing else comes close..... but who the fuck is grinding VF1 or SF2:WW lol

[@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen]

​@@Shodan130 Well that's just it, newer games DO have strong impact. Is why they put games like MKX and such in consideration. The problem with putting games like SF6 and Tekken 8 is because the support isn't done yet. In a year from now, those games could become GOATS. Or some additions could sour the game and make it as bad as some of the ones we grew up with. Look at FighterZ. That game was ASS at launch. Loved by many, but ass in so many areas. But time has been a benefit to the game, to the point I can completely see someone saying it's a Top 10 of all time. I get why they are arguing impact so much, cause to many. GOAT is a game that really either was a trailblazer of it's industry or is becoming a pioneer of the industry. SF6 feels this way and in time, could very well make it the best of all time. But there's no denying impact for games like say 3rd Strike. We just had one of the most memorable moments in EVO history come from that game. And it came from someone playing Hugo. The ACTUAL WORST character in the game. We had the MVC2 movement to bring the game to modern platforms and now we have it and people are experiencing MVC2 in all it's (busted) glory. And there's no denying that SoulCalibur, while the other games offer more. They haven't been able to really replicate the success and impact of the first game. (And we had Star Wars guest characters in SC4) It's not that modern games can't become GOATS. It's just not many modern fighting games in the last few years have done much to push things forward. I mean SF5 launch was horrible, MK11 despite being the best selling game in the series, is rather polarizing. And Tekken 7 while being a great return to form, it's online was ABYSMAL. (Same thing happened to Soulcalibur 6) FighterZ took time to get good, Strive is getting better, SF6 is only improving, Tekken 8 is getting better. Fighting games are in a better place right now so who knows. This list could easily change in a year or two.

[@Shodan130]

@@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen yea but if you are to discuss what games are the most impactful, vf1 and world warrior are literally the only correct answer. That’s why the impact arguement is dumb because no other game comes nearly close.. So it should honestly just be about the games quality.. in saying that 3s and sf6 would be so far away from my top 10 it’s not even funny

[@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen]

@Shodan130 maybe so, but the reason why impact is brought up so much is because without said impact, we wouldn't have the games we do now. Look at MK9, if it failed. MKX would never exist. (mk9 was their final chance)

[@LD-yy6qt]

@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen My problem with impact is that it varies way too much to favor whatever game argument someone likes. It seemed to be the only argument for T3 beating T5. It then wasn't enough for sf2 to get top 3. How the hell did Max decide impact is enough for top 5 but not for GOAT. His own words were, "The only reason sf2 made it this far is because of impact," and "impact only takes you so far." Why not 1 rank higher or lower. It's just a really bad metric imo.

[@Evilberto]

There should be two separate lists: one for the most influential fighting games and one for current best playing fighting games.

[@friendofphi]

I don't know how they got there because I jumped to the end. But Soul Calbur 2 is better in every way, and it also did a lot for the community. It was like the beginning of sharing clips of tournaments with friends, we passed around clips of Aris with wacky pre-discord voldo tech and 12 year old Kayane crushing everyone in Europe. It captured more then any 3D fighter did.

[@Jose-se9pu]

1 did it first

[@dezzaderrick]

@Jose-se9pu 1 was only in arcades and a dead home console no one owned. 2 was on every console at the time with different guest characters depending on the system. It was winning best game of the year/decade as a Fighting game in many magazines and was getting 9-10 scores back when being a game journalist was respectful. Soul Calibur 2 clears number 1 by a mile.

It is an actual crime that not a single Fatal Fury or KoF title made the top ten. Even more so that Max said there were better titles in comparison to 13 like 02UM but those didn't even make the list at all.

I've seen Max claim before that MVC2 and KI are his favorite fighting games, so the fact that he not only accepted but advocated that KI should be either 9 or 8 is rather ridiculous.
