Is there more than one YYH game? I think I played it on the emulator and I wasn't all that impressed with it, even considering the time. Not nearly the pile of dog ---Cleveland steamer--- like say... Heavy Nova was, but I wouldn't make it a top choice to include in my hardware library. I always felt the price was inflated for the sole reason the show was on Adult Swim for so long.

This is the one I'm talking about.

The well balanced characters and 4 player battles make it a lot of fun.

I would recommend giving it another try with a few friends.

Here is a pattern.  Ryu fireballs over and over and if a person comes in close..rising upper.    This makes it so unfair for anyone that wants to be even semi agressive.  No wonder they toned down the damage in later revisions....or I mean GAMES.   

Then there is the problem with exactly which SFII you are talking about.   Gee such a perfect game that you have how many different versions that change integral gameplay???   What do you got....champion, turbo, turbo x, Super, super turbo....super duper.    PLEASE.    SFII has always been beta and has always been unbalanced.

MK has sold more.  This is easily proved by the amount of updates made to compete with the original!    MK was a total landslide and brought on a slew of imitators...including the SFII updates to try to make the gameplay closer.

All of your examples seem to compare against SFII. That's like saying the Model T was crap compared to a '57 chevy. Like it or not, Capcom defined the genre with SFII. All of the core gameplay of Mortal Kombat was dirivative of SFII. Even you admit that these problems were addressed. There are multiple revisions of the SFII's, but I've never seen anyone pay as much attention to revisions as the MK fans of the early 90's. There were some glaring issues that probably should have been caught during playtesting. It's not that I hate MK, I just think it's an unfair comparison. I also hear Soul Calibur 3 is better than Karate Champ.

Not at all like a MK fanboy...

I've tried SF3 the first one and second impact. They where good in their own right. I have yet to try SF3 Third Strike.

But honestly, my favorite fighting game of all time, is Street Fighter Alpha 3. Not really sure why so many preffer Alpha 2 though. I actually like the whole air combo thing and being able to block in the air.

Also a good runner up is Super Smash Bros. for the N64. It sucked in that you could hit down and knock an oppent out of the ring even if they had full health. But at the same time, that's what made it so much fun. Smash Bros Melee, its sequel was fun too but it seemed like they spent way too much time balancing out the characters to a point where the game lost a lot of its appeal. It was fun, but not as fun as the first.

"which Lord of the Rings movie is your favorite?  oh and you cant pick from any that were directed by peter jackson."

gay!
