Which beat-em-up characters do you specialise in?

[Big Seany]

Terrence or Andy Bogard and Bob Garcia within the Fatal Fury/KoF universe. Rock Howard is nice to use on Garou. Am a pussy on Street Fighter - always pick Ken or at a push Sagat or Dan. The new characters in the Alpha and SFIII line ups scare me! In the Capcom "vs" games, love Wolverine, and am a big fan of Bulleta from the Darkstalkers series. Big fan of Bryan Fury (Tekken series), and either Nightmare or Seigfried in Soul Edge/Soul Calibur series. Taking it back a few years, always thought Scorpion was the shizzzznit on Mortal Kombat. "C'mere!"

Have not really experimented enough on Sam Sho or Last Blade to have a particular favourite yet.

I love beat 'em ups.

But it's been a while since I've played some of these.

With all Street Fighter / Capcom games I only use random character selection specifically to stop cheap / boring fights. Me and my friend play first to 10 wins this way, and it's always great fun. We had to write a program to pick in 3rd strike as there is no random select, what a pain in the ass.

In Samurai Showdown I mainly use Haohmaru.

I haven't got my head around the KOF system yet, but I lean towards Kim.

Fatal Fury wise, my favourate is Tung Fu Rue.

Garou I absolutely hate, so no favourates there.

Same with all 3D beat em ups, they stink so I don't waste my time on them.

Gah... you've made me remember more.

Mortal Kombat II (and ONLY II - all the others are ****) - Shang Tsung. There was a time I knew everyone, and so played as Shang so I could be anyone at any time. Now, thanks to getting old, my memory's gone and I can't remember ****. Damn it.

Soul Calibur II - Kilik... or at least, about three of Kilik's combos and not much else.

SFA: Gen, Sodom, Guy

SF3: Oro, Alex, Hugo

VF: Akira, Goh, Shun and Aoi

Tekken: Asuka, Lei Wu Long

KoF: Diamon, Yamazaki, Takuma, Clark

[Yoshimax]

VF - Akira (power) , Jacky (flashy) , Shun-Di (technique)

Tekken - Heihachi, Paul, Jin

SF - Ken, Chun Li, Cammy, Deejay
