Gameroni: Top 21 in 2010 - 14) Super Street Fighter IV

2010 was a busy year and it saw the release of a bunch of great games. Staff and regular freelance contributors at Gameroni had the opportunity to play a wide variety of titles over the past 12 months and together we've compiled a list of 21 of our favorite games from the period. These are the ones that had the biggest impact on us, not necessarily the industry as a whole. We're sharing that list with you now, one title per day over a period of three weeks. Though there's only a loose order to this list, in general you can know that we liked games more as we work toward the number one selection.

Andrew Cretella writes: "Yet the more important, and more subtle, improvement that Super Street Fighter IV makes is that it offers a balanced middle ground between Street Fighter II and Street Fighter III. With Street Fighter III, Capcom tried to counteract the ruthlessly unforgiving nature of Street Fighter II’s projectiles and oppressive gameplay by introducing the parry system. It over compensated, turning Street Fighter III into an at-times overly defensive game of very cautiously spacing attacks, while making projectiles mostly useless. Super Street Fighter IV’s focus attack system offers the best engine balance of any game in the series, returning projectiles to a state of utility while still providing players with some good defensive options."

Actually, the article is pretty good (IMHO) although I personally have never really liked pure fighting games. I do however like the Souls and Bloodborne series and am quite reasonable playing them although I could "git bttr". 😉

I swear by Injustice being the most accessible fighting game out there. Play Injustice!

JackGash3010d ago

Injustice is a very accessible fighting game, It takes the mechanics of MK9 and expands on them in interesting ways. I would say Injustice and Mortal Kombat are among the more accessible.

10 Legendary Video Game Myths That Fooled Us All

Maybe these myths are a way of injecting some mystery and fascination into games that we’ve become so familiar with. Perhaps we’re desperate to recapture how we once felt when first playing through them; deluding ourselves into believing that there’s more to experience – even though deep down we know we’ve seen it all.

Alternatively, there’s the reality that growing up, we were just a lot more susceptible to rumours and hoaxes than we are now. Yeah, that’s probably it – there’s no way these things would fly today. Everyone knows the alien in GTA V’s forest is real anyway.
