Street Fighter Vs Mortal Kombat (lemmy.world)

Which of the two fighting franchises do you prefer most? I preferred SF likely because I liked the roster of characters from dhalsim to blanka.

I would say my favourite in the series is SF Alpha 3. Nice anime inspired gfx and mechanics.

Mortal Kombat I didn't mind but I wasn't a fan of the early 3D titles I.e. Deception because I didn't like their soul calibur like side step mechanic.

What are your thoughts?

I always loved Tekken more, because a good match between skilled players looked like something out of a choreographed kung Fu movie.

At least up to the PS2 era. It was also slower paced so you had to be more strategic. I always thought all the little character story movies were a lot of fun. SF feels very bare bones in comparison. But I stopped paying attention a while ago. MK had a distinguishing gimmick with the fatalities, but the general character design never meshed well with me.
