Reigizuo_78 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 So TekkenTag 2 won BEST FIGHTING GAME OF THE YEAR yet its sales are still REALLY low. I mean sure theres other fighting games out there but tekken got that rank for a reason right? so why dont more people get it? I asked some people and they all said the same thing "Fighting games are too easy" "Fighting games are too hard" "Too many noobs are out there" Then i put two and two together People dont hate tekken, the fighting game industry is dying. With game such as call of duty, assasins creed and skyrim why would people WANT to play a competitive game such as tekken, one that requires skill? The standard for games these days have come to an all time low and some ppl say they estimate by the time 2020 comes around, fighting games will all but have dissapeared into the world of once they which lived in. Tell me what you guys think on this subject: *Side note We (well some of us) said the new DmC would tank as soon as it comes out, but WE WERE WRONG. DmC scored a 9/10 on almost every site. Nothing below a 6 and won game informers game of the month gold award. Hows that for a sucky game? Lord help us...........game are getting dumbed down and the public LOOOOOOVES IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightFlare_Da_Realest Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 You make an interesting case, "Reggie." Fighting games DO require a bit of skill. Yep, things have changed. Street Fighter X Tekken was a bit of a disappointment. Maybe I'm I busy playing COD 2. Man, have I become like the rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black chaos Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Tekken games never really sold that well TTT2 however did sell a good amount because people loved TTT1, and the fighter game gene is slowing up but this has happen before which it out right died for a few years remember when Sf4 first came out? when was the last fighting game before it's release. There wasn't any because even hardcore fighting games players felt there were to many fighting games out. also Persona 4 won fighting game of the year.not TTT2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banned for harassment. Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 As someone who only buys and plays fighting games 90% of the time (The other 10% is Phoenix Wright and Katamari Damacy), I see how very, very, VERY few fighters are coming out, compared to the endless waves of FPS...

Black chaos Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Sadly Fighting games are getting to that point there seems to be so many coming out a few months apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MugoUrth Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Ugh, I could be here all day ranting on about how much I hate FPS/Survival Horror/Stealth/RPGs With Guns/Anything involving guns type games (They're really all the same to me). It's as if people will not play games unless it has guns in them. Rhythm games, Fighting games, platformers, etc. So many really fun genres of videogames all dying to generic shooting games.

MrSteve81 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Companies are going to make the games that people are going to buy. I don't like FPS games myself, but I can see the appeal. They do look better every year, even if nothing much is changing in them. It's been exactly the same since the beginning of gaming. The prettiest games are the best sellers. Even though I love my fighting games, I can see that an outsider to the genre wouldn't really see much difference between Street Fighter 2 and Tekken Tag 2 apart from the graphics.

Super Nicholas Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 So many really fun genres of videogames all dying to generic shooting games. I agree with you there. There are just so many people who play Call of Duty and Halo, that games like fighting games and platformers don't seem to get as much attention as they used to... I'm pretty sure this is one reason why lots of people tend to shy away from the Wii U and 3DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reigizuo_78 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 What a world we live in... HEY >:( i like Persona 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 So Sad to hear that the Fighting Games is Almost Death.. some people won't play the Fighting games anymore.. they're just playing RPG games, FPS Games or Sports Game ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightFlare_Da_Realest Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 HEY >:( i like Persona 4 I'm sure I would too...if I ever played it. Honestly, it looks like a really awesome game. I'm a fighter at heart, but I've been really into Call of Duty since Black Ops 1. I used to be into rpgs, but even they have taken a back seat. I got the complete God of War series for Christmas. I haven't played it yet...lol! Basically, as long as it involved combat of some sort, I was into it. Fictional fighters, Wrestling, MMA and even a little Boxing. I just like combat sports. This played a big part in the type of stages I created wham I first hit the forums as an active member(I lurked for almost 3 years before that.)
