storylines in fighting games

seriously does anyone care about them?

Tekken is probably one of the only ones where they matter. Otherwise, no.

Nope Not unless it's a character dying story...especially a character I liked. It usually means that that fighter is gone for good unless the makers do a special game or something.

oh Shiz, I forgot Tekken.

Add Baal's post to my post too.

I like the cheesy Street Fighter stories.

you actually think its good though?

the only game storyline which i found vaguely interesting was MK
but even that wasn't particularly interesting

the fact they keep pulling out older people in the mishima family line out of each others asses always annoyed me about tekken
and there always seems to be extra children popping up to

I do when it comes to fighting games like Street Fighter, the King of Fighters, and Soul Calibur.

MK, Good Storyline? Wut?

Tekken actually has a very good one.

well i don't know about good

I usually don't mind em

Like in DBZ BT3, I replay the story segment where Vegeta says that the power level is over nine thousand

Bull, Where's Hwoarang's kid? XD

Anyway, Yeah, The Mishima Family has issues.

It's not a great story but Tekken's is the only one I follow and care about.

I get the feeling DOA actually had some big epic story behind it all, but the games do such a shit job of telling any semblance of a story I just can't care.

The only thing i get from DOA is tits.

Yeah. It's annoying, because the way DOA4 did it's endings was really good. About 3 or 4 characters had connected ends, and when you'd done the story mode with everyone you unlocked one more character who had the final end that brought those others endings together and finally finished off the story. And it was an amazing ending, even though I didn't have a clue what was going on. Which annoyed because it would have been even better if DOA games weren't so shit at telling a story.

the story plays out lilke a badly dubbed martial arts flick i kinda like that
but i don't understand how anything is connected
i'm just gutted DOA isn't on sony consoles

Dead or Alive's okay, but I think it's more about eye candy... not that it's necessarily a bad thing, you know.

i genuinely enjoyed DOA
hayabusa is a fucking ninja and jann lee is bruce lee

I like DOA because it flows more than most fighting games. It feels choreographed sometimes.

You just like the flowing bounce of the boobs
