Cashcom, or How I Learned to Start Blaming Myself

Trevor of GAMElitist.com - "I have been a devoted Capcom fan since I was a child. I was raised on Mega Man (X is still my favorite game ever), Resident Evil, and of course Street Fighter. Plus, let’s not forget their fantastic work on Disney platformers (Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers, Ducktails, Aladdin)."

Capcom is responsible for one of my All Time Favorite RPGs: Destiny Of An Emperor on the NES. It's where my avatar comes from. JRPGs at their finest.

I can't get into Capcom games anymore. They went from being leaders to followers.

5yN4MWQU4844d ago

You make some really solid points, but I think many of them can be cross-linked to other former-leaders as well, unfortunately.

Yeah, it seems to be a problem with bigger companies. I guess that's why we see such a big wave of support for indie titles nowadays.

How Street Fighter IV Saved 2D Fighting Games (Ft. Maximilian Dood)

After Street Fighter II released in in 1991, it caused a fighting game explosion, both in arcades and in home consoles. But, as the decade ended, and arcades were failing, so too were 2D Fighting games. This is how Street Fighter IV completely revitalized the genre.

I'd say Blazblue helped too. Didn't care for Street Fighter 4, but Blazblue was amazing during that time. Sad that the series kind of went downhill after the first 2 or 3 games though.

DarXyde743d ago

BlazBlue was phenomenal. Platinum'd Calamity Trigger because I loved it so much. I remember buying Continuum Shift back in the day at launch for like $40. They did have DLC characters (Valkenhayne, Makoto, and Platinum at the time) and it came out to just a tad more than it would at full price. Didn't mind at all.

Great fighting game.

Snookies12742d ago

Continuum Shift was definitely my favorite. Spent way too many hours on that game, haha... Had the counters for days with Hakumen.

DarXyde742d ago

I really like Makoto, Valkenhayne, and Hazama. Super fun characters

Terry_B742d ago

Valkenhayn ..just sayin'

Terry_B743d ago

BlazBlue was the much better, more technical game..and a real 2D Fighting Game after all. But yes, since it was a big name..the characters were still popular and the game itself was good, SFIV indeed helped a lot. However, I am pretty sure the much better-selling Mortal Kombat 9 would have been done without SFIV as well..and that one truly helped to make the fighting game genre in general more popular again.

Ryuha1234h743d ago

You’re sound dumb. Blazblue was not better than sf4. You’re just saying that because you’re a street fighter hater.

GhostScholar742d ago

The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.
