I hate all fighting games for the simple reason that I'm terrible at them.

Zelda is not a RPG but an Action-Adventure game.

No, it's not a good attitude, and yes it's biased,But I suck at them, and a great many of them are way too complicated for me to learn how to play, so I hate 'em. That doesn't mean I dislike the genre or anything, I mean fighting games almost single-handedly revived the arcades in the early 1990s, so they get mad respect from me. I'm just no good at them, so I hate 'em.

leo, how about the Capcom fighters (like Street Fighter, etc)? They're pretty easy to handle...

Funny story: One of the first times I played SF2, my friend was getting incredibly pissed because he could NOT beat Bison no matter what he did or who he played as. He'd done it before, many times, I'd seen it, but for some reason he just couldn't get it done this one day. So, out of frustration, he gave me the controller and was like "man, screw this," fully expecting me to get killed. Well, I randomly picked Chun Li and kicked Bison's ass in two straight rounds. My friend was less than thrilled.

But yeah the SF games and I think it was Tekken 3 are the only fighting games I've ever been very good at, and MK 1 and 2 to a lesser extent. I actually started playing SF2 back before it got huge, when it first came out they had it in a few Burger Kings and stuff around here, back when fast food places were cool enough to have arcade games. But I tried playing one of the new ones and I was in the Training mode, and I saw that one of the throws/suplexes was like "forward, back, down/forward, high punch, low punch, back" or something, and I just gave up. I'll stick to wrestling games, where Chris Benoit's Multiple German Suplex is as simple as "up and O behind a groggy opponent".
