Worst Fighting Games on Consoles

GFB writes: "In the world of gaming, every genre has its stinkers. It’s unfortunate, but of course not every game can be good. There’s nothing worse than being excited about a new game, laying down the money at the store while the clerk smiles at you knowing you’re a fool. You get home and pop in the game only to get kicked in the teeth with unresponsive controls, rough graphics and sound that always seems out of place if it even works."

I would say RDR on PS3...fighting those flying donkeys and chickens at 10 FPS is tough...

LeonSKennedy4Life5076d ago

They both have the same glitches though. :)

I have the PS3 version. Has anyone else with the PS3 version experienced literally NO framerate drop and/or screen tearing? I have yet to experience either...and I'm 15 hours into it.

Troll somewhere else.

Man In Black5076d ago

The framerate's fine. The only noticeable drop for me was when everyone in the Armadillo saloon crammed through the door at once.

T9X695076d ago

Def Jam Icon an honorable mention? I actually had a lot of fun with that game

vgn245076d ago

I had DJ Icon and I remember the controls being pretty bad. I liked the concept though. Scratching to shake the level

charlescox45076d ago

You could have listed every fighter from the Atari Jaguar, lol.

BeaArthur5076d ago

Never been a big fighting game fan. They typically get old pretty quickly.

midgard2275076d ago

they get old to people who 1) suck, 2) get mad because they suck and all they do is die, 3) dont have good competition.

how cud u dare play a shooter like COD and say it doesnt get old when all u do is shoot and camp??? why because its the competition u get, trying to see if ur skills are the best, seeing if u can adapt against any gun/ or incase of fighter (any character)

now if u play a crappy fighting game then yeah it gets old quick but me and my bros have played guilty gear x2 all the way till blazblue came outt, thats like 5 years or more and it never got old.

but to each his own

iamgoatman5076d ago

Ok, calm down.

He just said he wasn't a fan.

midgard2275076d ago

im not hyped lol. but he did say the get old quickly. not really directed at bearthur, just at people who call them and action games button mashers.

people who say that r typically the people who actually just button mash.

*not directing this to u beaArthur

MadMan005076d ago

So not true, they get boring to people that have DIFFERENT TASTE stop being stupid.

Fighting Games and COD both have the same concept, Fight/Shoot to win that's it...now are you being bias toward fighting games or are you really that stupid?

midgard2275076d ago

lol u sound like i offended u.

to say they get boring fast is different than saying "I get bored fast"

its like me saying all sports games suck when i hate sports games. obviously people have their own opinion but when stating an opinion it should be stated that it is an opinion.

im bias against people who think fighting games are 1) the same, 2) button mashers, 3)skilless.

i ran into those people all the time when i worked at gamecrazy.

Will We Ever See A New Def Jam Game?

The Def Jam game series has been laying dormant for over a decade at this point, but could we ever see a revival of some kind?

Interesting article, but I hope we don't.

UnSelf1072d ago

Tell em. We need a Viewtiful Joe 3

DarXyde1072d ago

Whut

Fight for New York was awesome.

Icon was pretty bad, but I'll give them some benefit because they tried to do something new. A direct sequel to FFNY would be grand, though in the era of microtransactions and EA being who they are now, one should tread carefully about that fantasy.

gamingtext20201072d ago

I hear you, but the rappers nowadays are completely lame and corny when compared to the rappers from FFNY.

I rather take a remake from the game than a sequel.

DarXyde1072d ago

You'll get no disagreement from me there.

For some reason, I hadn't considered that there would be modern rappers. Christ.
On the other hand, I wouldn't be mad if they added more Wutang members so I can "torture" Tekashi69. :D

Beastgamerkuma1073d ago

we definitely need it to return, but nothing like Icon since that was trash. The mechanics of Def Jam fight for NY and Vendetta was still great til this day.

boing11072d ago

Oh man, remake of Fight for NY would be awesome.

Silly gameAr1072d ago

I hope so. Just go back to the Fight for New York style, and forget Icon ever happened.

King_Noctis1072d ago

Man I used to really love DJ Fight for NY and DJ Icon back in the day. I hope someone (not EA) can revive this franchise.

King_Noctis1072d ago (Edited 1072d ago )

Icon sucks, I admit. But I used to love the DJ games so much that I was willing to accept any game thrown in my way.

Is Def Jam Teasing The Announcement Of A New Game?

Do you remember the Def Jam-licensed hip hop video game franchise released by EA Games? Def Jam Vendetta? Def Jam: Fight for NY? Def Jam: Icon? Well, the studio seems to be teasing the fourth entry by tweeting that a "special announcement" will be coming soon.

It won’t be the same, these rappers nowadays are corny as f$&k and they won’t hold the same weight as the rappers in the first two games.....Icon was trash.

Silly gameAr1344d ago

Too true. I don't even think Def Jam has any artist now in days that would be worth playing as, and I'd rather not play as any of these clowns calling themselves artist today.

ThereGoThatManQ1343d ago

There are plenty of artists that still hold the same weight

BillyG0AT1343d ago

I'd definitely prefer a remake of the original games than a new one with all these rappers of today.

King_Noctis1343d ago

It would be cool if we can see Eminem and Machine Gun Kelly battling it out in the game, if Def Jam can somehow license those two into the game.

XxSPIDEYxX1343d ago

This seems like nothing but talk. I don't even think EA has the rights to make Def Jam games anymore. The last Def Jam Game was a sing a long game by Konami.

myfathersbastard1343d ago

Def Jam: Fight for NY was badass. Played the shit out of that one. Icon was trash.
Just do a full remake of F4NY

nowitzki20041343d ago

Lets hope its a remaster and not a new game with the new "artists"

boing11343d ago

Yeah! I played the hell out of Fight for NY too. Remaster would be very welcome.

Chocoburger1343d ago

The first two games were good. Since they were developed by AKI Corp.

The third game was made by EA Chicago, who made such a bad fighting game that EA abandoned their studio. Activision then bought the studio and they were renamed to Robomodo. They then proceeded to make 4 garbage Tony Hawk games in a row, and then shut down.

If there's another game, and its not made by AKI Corp., then move on.

Profchaos1343d ago

I.had no idea they were also robomodo it all makes sense.

Still Def jam icon was passable I thought frustrating and unresponsive at times though it could have been worse and then konami made Def jam sing star

Shezgear1343d ago

With the pretty much same rester with some new rappers like j.cole and kendrick.. and 69 just so I can beat his ass couple of times. Up to date graphics or the style of ICON and gameplay of fight for NY and we have a winner. But none of that will happen..

Def Jam Possibly Teasing A New Wrestling Game

The record label appears to be stoking fan excitement over a new game in a few not so subtle tweets.

As long as it's more like Fight for NY and less like Icon. Hopefully they bring back AKI Corporation to develop it

Actually, just remake FFNY...
EA has lost its touch way back when...
Anything new would be pretty much crap full of MT...

DarXyde2086d ago

Fight for NY was fantastic. Loved that game religiously.

Vendetta started a good thing, but DMX was more broken than Crow in Fight for NY (Snoop Dogg).

boing12086d ago

Please, make it like Fight for NY.

roadkillers2085d ago

Hell yeah brother! I'll be Lil Wayne

DeadManMMX2086d ago (Edited 2086d ago )

Like Vendetta with Asmik Aki/ No Mercy engine please

XxSPIDEYxX2086d ago

It all comes down to developer, and while EA Toronto did a great job with FFNY, I'm pretty sure they don't want anything more to do with the Def Jam series. Which is why we got Def Jam Icon from EA Chicago, and the guy behind the Xbox Kinect.

1nsomniac2086d ago

Fight for NY was an awesome game!! Even for a fighting game it had great replay ability. Sunk some serious hours into that game.
