Every Fighting Game Explained In 21 Minutes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ส.ค. 2024
- Among the countless genres in gaming, the fighting game is one of the oldest, most overwhelming types to get into. With EVO, the world’s largest fighting game tournament, just around the corner, and the big three having recently received new entries all within a year of each other, I thought now would be a good time to overview some of the legendary franchises that have defined the genre.

Thanks for checking out my video! I've been in to fighting games for a while, but I’m not an expert on every series, so let me know if there are any incorrections. This is my first vid on the topic and if people enjoy it I'll post more. Timestamps and music are in the description.
Edit: Here are some notable facts I missed:
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was a main stage evo game. I do go over the game in the video though.
Unlike Mortal Kombat, Injustice has a hold back to block system in contrast to MK’s button block. Also, instead of a traditional round system, there’s a lives system, so players don’t regain all their health between fights. There are also nuances with the combo system and buttons.
Virtua Fighter debuted in ‘93, not ‘92.

"What's your favorite fighting game?"
"MK."
"Mortal Kombat?"
"No, Mario Kart."
😭😭🗿
6:50 😂😂😂😂😂
Would participate tbh
the mario kart ds one made my brain stop working for a few seconds that was hilarious
Best way to describe my feelings for that segment
You wouldn't believe how loud me and my siblings were playing Mario Kart DS on car trips. Drove our parents nuts
around 7:22 or so, you might think, "Mario Kart isn't a fighting game," as did I. until I remembered all the nights playing it as a 20something with my best friend and a 36-pack of beer.
shit got physical. furniture was moved.
Feels so wrong to see that Darkstalkers was never at EVO
Yeah I was surprised at that too
I was NOT expecting to see Mario Kart here that was hilarious.
My hands were tied
@@Choicental There was a year when MLG had a crossover event with Evo (2005), so you could have included Halo 2 as well
I find it hilarious how quickly brushed aside the Injustice segment felt. Like it feels like each game from a bunch more pile was explained more than the zoned out injustice.
MK covered a lot of the same bases to be fair
@@Choicental Doesn't Injustice have regular blocking where you have to hold back? I'd say that distinguishes it from Mortal Kombat a bit. It also has a lives system instead of a round system, which means your health doesn't get refilled between rounds.
@@Oscar97oI didn't know that it had a life system. That alone is a good difference
@Oscar97o Good point. I’ll add this to the pinned comment
That's bc Injustice was always just MK lite. Which is a shame bc DC characters deserve more than just playing like a lesser MK character. If superman isn't 8 way airdashing or blasting screen filling laser beams in your DC fighting game, then that's not a real DC fighting game.
The best part of this video was the TH-cam thumbnail screenshot that flew by: "Project L will save Will Smith and Jada's marriage" 😂
I was waiting for someone to point that out lol
2:25 CAPCOM VS SNK
The best crossover. It was played in arcades & on concmsoles 24/7
Hopefully we get a new one. I was so hyped when Terry and Mai got revealed for Street Fighter
cant believe there was no kyanta the most iconic fighting game in the world
Literally crying
I am kinoko
@@I.Love.KishkaI am Kinoko
ya got me good. Not mentioning Fatal Fury after mentioning Art of Fighting was bugging me but then you did mention it!
Tatsunoko vs Capcom was a main stage game in 2010.
Had a feeling there would be a mistake somewhere. At least I covered it in the speed round tho. I’ll double check things next time. I’ll add this to the pinned comment
3:18 Soul Calibur also has a ring out system
You forgot about Shaq fu, the Best fighting game ever created.
The joke stopped being funny when they made a sequel.
@@Hawkatana But it's beatemup.
@@PAINNN666 That's not what I said was about.
Finally, someone that recognizes the quality of DOA combat system, and not only its aesthetics
People think I'm crazy when I say I love DOA6
they gutted it 5 is the better play
@@sonicspeediscrazy DOA 6 Is more consistent imo, that's why I prefer it
I always feel embarassed telling people but DOA is unironically my all time favourite fighting game franchise. It just feels so satisfying to play and its far more accessible than tekken imo
@@bartimusprime5652 DOA is the series that introduced me to fighting games. While Guilty Gear Strive is my favorite, DOA2, 5 and 6 are still very important to me. And yes, I like DOA for the waifus too, no need to deny that.
The reason I got serious about fg was DOA 6, I really miss the counter system.
Every other fighting game in the list: Has a ton of features, counter mechanics, assists, deep gameplay.
Mortal Kombat: It's got Kameos.
this video won my heart and reminded me of why i love fighting games so much
Glad you enjoyed it! This year’s evo will be a memorable one
Memes aside, Mario Kart DS offers a lot of technical room to grow with some of the most robust snaking and movement tech in the franchise, allowing for more player expression than just having good lines and getting good items. While it's inclusion in EVO was obviously a bit out of place, the game DID have competitive depth for a kart racer, and I spent a lot of time in the game.
Ohh I never really thought about Smash movement being inspired by Kof
SNK goated
10:10 that's funny considering how terrible it looks, and how it's characters are so forgettable they need to relely on guest characters for dlc
Sorry it's involuntary hating
@@evilded2 It's not hate, it's the truth
Mk got the most iconic characters in fighting games outside of maybe street fighter calling them forgettable is insane
Just admit ur a d1 hater(im a d1 glazer)
A Persona channel AND a fighting game channel at the same time? Instant sub.
You missed some popular franchises like Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, DefJam, ClayFighter and Bloody Roar. Naruto UNS 4 sold more copies than the best-selling Tekken game ever, for example.
Only 90s Kids remember Mugen, The fighting game where you could make any fighting game. Solid Video!
I really enjoyed this video! I have only ever been into Tekken and Smash Bros. as far as fighting games are concerned, but with the announcement of 2XKO I have been wanting to get way more into them. I'm going to be checking out Evo this year and this video really helped me understand what I might want to watch/ buy next! :) *Stares at Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection*
I have a feeling this evo will be a memorable one. Hope you have a fun time if you end up getting any games!
Great idea for a video - very straightforward, but good info, thorough and I loved the segment on Mario Kart DS! Subscribed! 😊
I think you missed a game: Shaq Fu. 🤣
(Great video, thanks 😃 )
I have a feeling Rivals of Aether 2 will be pretty big for the platform community. Offbrand Games could push it to be bigger than the first one.
this is an oddly well put together video for how much it's covering, usually these videos rush and the dude's talking a million miles per hour and barely really describing anything, even brushing over alot of shit to get that click bait "every fighter explained in 5 minutes or less" while only describing the big 3 and maybe like smash bros, but your script is just concise, well structured, easy to understand and gives a surprising amount of detail to each fighter given the videos length and the number of fighters included
Little bit of love for Killer Instinct. Thank You
Calling Mortal Kombat one of the big 3 in 2024 is pretty funny ngl
Quiet you MK1 just needs that 26th patch to make me go back from Tekken
It still the one that sells the most out of the 3…so yeah, it is the biggest fighting game franchise.
Don’t come at me, I don’t even play it, but it is the truth !
It’s just not a popular competitive game.
@@clementnunes5070 SF6 and T8 both outsold by miles. Also sales is not an actual parameter to judge a game lmao
As someone who plays MK1, T8 and GGST I find all the MK1 hate so funny.
If ur talking about mkx or 9 then yea but there recent releases were pretty bad
DOA MENTIONED ❤
Love the series too much, it's what really got me into fighting games and it's still perfect to me. Sad that the franchise is pretty dormant currently, but it's one I still recommend to anyone.
Finally somebody talking about DS at EVO I remember when that one random potato quality video came into my feed i was like no fuckin way
Such great video! It's a great form yo introduce people to any fighting game franchise 🙌🙌🔥🔥 (you scared me for a moment when i didn't see Fatal Fury in all the video 😅😂. Can't forget the goat!! 🔥🔥)
Suuuuper solid video, really enjoyed this
Just brief recommendation of both Figthing Vipers and Last Bronx, amazing 3D Fighting games by SEGA
When i was a kid me and my older cousin would go to a arcade center and play king of fighters for hours, such good memories
This is one of the best videos I've seen about the topic.
the only surprise is that they added MK1 to EVO 2024
Hope this does the numbers bro this shit was fire
Bro is so underrated
Deserves way more subs
Glad you liked the vid!
Forgot to put Tekken after Soul in the timestamps
Thanks for the heads up! Looks like I accidentally put it as 4:14 instead of 5:14. Should be good now.
17:31 BONUS ROUND
Nice one !
And bravo for the last entry, because I was going to riot (well, all alone ! 😅) because of its absence !
Two more missing entries for me, worth noticing: BigBang Beat Revolve and Hinokakera (the king of doujinshi!)
Nice work, already shared !❤
Great video bro, but what about rivals of ather? Multiverses, brawlhalla, mk vs dc, and the one and only, DIVEKICK
3:00 I started actually playing fighting games with Street Fighter 6. Also got myself Tekken 8.
And Virtua Fighter's the one I'd be extremely interested to get a new game of, so I could give it a try. It's the fighting game that sounds the most like it's right up my alley.
Provided the rumoured next entry is on PC.
Another great video
Please more THE KING OF FIGHTERS videos! New subb
I know you were mainly focusing on traditional fighters, but you missed a couple of platform fighters (games like smash bros). Mainly Rivals of Aether and Brawlhalla.
Wow this video was very comprehensive! The only omission I could think of that might have fit in this video would be the battle arena toshinden series.
Great video dude! I've been into fighting games as a mega casual, so a lot of this was new info for me! Also as a BFTG fan I gotta say that if you're looking at playing 2XKO, the game Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid shares a fair bit of the gameplay style with the tag system, even if it leans on more towards the style of MvC.
Once again, great video! Looking forward to trying out 2XKO and Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves!
Thanks! Another upcoming game you might wanna check out is Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact since it’s also a team game like battle for the grid. Somehow I completely forgot about it
@@Choicental I'll go look it up! Thanks for the recommendation!
Just gonna mention that tekken's time stamp isn't showing up for me in case that's an error in the video at the moment
Thanks for the heads up! I think TH-cam is still processing it since I added that one kinda late. I updated the pinned comment with the timestamp for the time being
@@Choicental ofc np!
Wasn't expecting Arcana to be touched on, kudos.
I love FG related videos that acknowledge DOA as a great game and not just say the same bs and stupid jokes everyone repeat as morons. Great content man!
Thanks! I tried my best to lift games up rather than put them down
Gteat vid man keep doing your thing man
If you’re a big anime fan, they are soon releasing a HXH fight game titled: Hunter X Hunter: Nen Impact. It’s going to be made by the developers of MVC3, with the same 3v3 super long combos style.
The game looks horrible.. And hxh is one of my favourite anime, coming from someone who doesn't really like anime all that much.
@@rns6889 gotta give them a little lenience, they were given like $10,000 to actually make the game. The company has a good history of making great games with a small budget so I’m not too worried. (Although you are right, it does look terrible 😅)
big 3? get mk out of there 💀
Shouldve been kof lol
MK is undeniably big 3, whether you like the game or not lol
im pretty sure by every measure outside of (maybe) sales guilty gear is doing better, and has been doing better for about 5 years now.
@@omniboo1762 GG only has had some semblance of mainstream attention with Strive, please respect MK.
@@chobanawanui7599 strive has been out for 4 years, and ever since its consistently had more players at events and more people playing it online at a given time. the past 4 evos its been at the top 3 games in terms of entrants and was number 1 for two of them. You're not giving the game any of the respect it deserves. MK hasn't been good since X and that's reflected by its playerbase.
What, no King of Fighters?! Looked at the description and it turned out it was in 9th. And hey it turns out there is Samsho too. Plus you didn't forget Art of Fighting and it ends with Fatal Fury is a turnaround from almost got furious to instant subs.
I did say I’d take you on a ride after all
Great Doc!!!
Wasn't aware Battle for the Grid never made it to EVO. Unfortunate, since it is such a good game.
Best thing MK gave us is the iconic theme.
I agree that Mario Kart DS is the best fighting game
wheres catherine???????????
I’ll be making a dedicated vid just for Catherine at some point
The game Powerstone needs to come back! Also I don’t know if you would include the def jam fighting series
If you’re going to bring up Mario Kart, why did you not mention Catherine?
Bro the vs games started with X-men children of the atom a year before xvsf. Akuma was a secret character you could play as.
It went Xmen COTA, Marvel Super Heroes then xvsf
Got to give a shout out to Aquapazza: Aquaplus dream match & Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax
No Divekick mention?
Seriously though no Gundam Vs mention?
Weird order, that would have been interesting to start from the oldest to the newest ones
I decided to just order them the way they appeared at evo and figured it coincidentally spread out the classics decently well
I knew Hinokakera had no chance of ever being mentioned, but I still think it's worth to mention it. Guile Win Quote has a video on this game and I recommend every fighting game enthusiast to try it out
Maybe I’ll make a part 2 with some of the more underrated games. There were some others I didn’t cover like Divekick, etc. and this vid was for the most popular series
@@Choicental and it was great by the way, I tend to comment for things missing more often than for praise. But this video was definitely well made
immaterial and missing power, scarlet weather rhapsody, hisoutensoku, etc.
Hey love the video! Great and concise with good edits. I think the most iconic fighting game moment however is wombo combo, its still used in gaming terminology today and boasts almost 30million views
edit: probably not more iconic but more popular but mainly for the meme so i think evo moment 37 is ultimately more iconic to the fgc
That’s fair. On the other hand I mainly know about the recording more than the actual video and it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out where it was from lol since most people memes skipped the “that ain’t falco part”
I wish Killer Instinct 2013 was included in this. It is a criminally underrated fighting game that deserves its rightful recognition. Other than that, what a great video.
Killer Instinct 2013 is there. Check 12:13
And thanks!
have you heard of eXceed? its a fighting game card game with set decks. its really good, just about as complex as video game fighters. its most recent release was a Guilty Gear version (just named Guilty Gear Board Game, though it is eXceed)
If you need a 20 minute video of some guy rambling on about Mai Shiranui or Cammy, you're probably in the wrong place, buddy.
...Who are you talking to?
@@guitaroach Ustedes pantalones ahora?
8:36
in short
if you are fan of tsukihime , (or any any type moon works: fate , kara no kyoukai, mahoyo , ...)
or you are fan of a deep shield system alongside air combat
or you want to see an animated curry for best girl ciel
(also, that doa summary was pretty good, good visual, good character design, customs , deep HOLD System , interactive stages ,... and lore (if you go to play DOA Dimmention)
This is a great video! I looked for something like this a year ago when I tried to break into he fighting game genre and just bought old versions from most series on sale. So far I've head the most fun with the old Guilty Gear titles and KOF 13, and I thought UNI might be up there as well. But I never got around to really putting the time in either one of them. Now I'm mostly working on my Smash Ultimate game, but I'm about to give the newer Guilty Gear: Strive and Street Fighter 6 a chance as well.
Games I missed in the video: Power Rangers, Jojo, Nickelodeon, Rivals (2), Brawlhalla, fighting herds, only move is hussle, footsies, Fist of North Star, maybe Lethal league Blaze and that mecha arena fighter.
You are Mario kart but not Thems fighting herds?
TFH hasn't been a mainstage evo game
@@evilded2 It was, but it was the year of the plague and everything had to go online.
@@Rocketknightgeek It was not, 2020 it wasn't part of the 9 main stage games and Evo online 2021 it wasn't a featured game.
felt injustice was given an injustice by just being skipped over basically
Battle Arena Toshinden. It was big... until T1 came on PS1. Better be here instead of obscure Tatsunoko game.
Let's pray for the day we're gonna have World Heroes Perfect at the main stage 🙏🏾
I wonder What would be Like IF
Def Jam was Involved in this Video Too...
Imagine if we really got thems fighting herds at EVO. It would be crazy 😂 goated game tho
I hope we get to see a ton of 2D art style games make a massive comeback. I freaking LOVE the 2D art design. The unique 2D sprites, The movement, move sets, the level of creativity and visual art design overall is utterly Fascinating. I WISH we could start seeing more games like it. Anything instead of just getting stuck with more modern 3D style fighting games. I hope we see other types of games at least bring back the use of 2D art style. These kind of 2D visuals and characters hold up so well in my opinion. The design is almost timeless in some ways. I just cannot stand the 3D approach that's mixed in with some dumb doofus looking art style. Like a Frankenstein hybrid between Pixar art style and giant idiot looking art styles and character designs.. I just hope stuff like this makes a big comeback one day..
Bro really said KOF doesn't have long combos 😢
I think a lot of games, even street fighter, can have some really long combos, and kof especially when you play Ash, but compared to other team games you can do well with relatively normal length combos
Absolutely shameful that For Honor wasn't mentioned. That was the game that made me actually understand the appeal of fighting games.
just clicked because i was told arcana heart was included. would of been cool to mention some of the mechanics, or include some other team arcana games, but its impossible to include and remember everything, And hardly anyone understand a lot of basic arcana mechanics, so it s better to not mention too much without spreading misinfo
If you’d like a 3D fighter with depth AND larger movelists than Tekken, play Soulcalibur.
That’s literally Virtua Fighter.
You better go back and give Soulcal more depth, because wtf??? 💀
My man missed the most important 3d fighters, sonic the fighters and Sega fighters megamix!
I get you’re probably not a platform fighter guy but I feel at the very least Rivals of Aether (1 or 2) should’ve gotten a mention
Looking back on it I’d have put rivals 2 in upcoming
Interesting to not see JoJo on this list
Nah darkstalkers is known for all the baddies it has. Morrigan, Lilith they got everything
Adds Mario Kart but not Them’s Fighting Herds
you forgor sonic fighters lol, but that aside, amazing video covering even some of the fgs I haven’t heard of
Marvel vs street fighter either started with X-Men children of the atom or street fighter
Guilty Gear Strive for me, blew every other fighter out the park, maybe except Tekken. Never knew a game can be this good.
no soku :(
Oh wow you did the joke of Melty about the bathroom and showed neko arc, how original.
No love for Streets of Fury? The most groundbreaking of em all?
The background music is a bit too loud
