Fighting Games for Your PC

 

Fighting games have been directly brought to the personal computer from the arcades of the good old days.

There are very few fighting games that feature a single player story line, most of them having a designated roster of base characters which you can choose as fighters in the game.

Later on based on the rounds you win and the way you win them you will have the opportunity to unlock more characters and bonus content for them such as their biography and endings, costumes, weapons and new fighting styles and moves.

Few game have entered in history as the basics of fighting game platforms. I am referring to games such as Mortal Kombat, Street fighter, Soul Calibur and Tekken. Many of these games have been remastered from the original versions only because the older versions did not benefit from the amazing graphical capabilities that current machines can offer.

Fighting games tournaments are frequently organised and they offer various prizes starting from some component parts to various cash bonuses.

In the game the basic rule is to fight your way to the top of the pyramid and this is a Mortal Kombat reference right there and become the ultimate fighter. You do this by memorizing a few combo moves so that you will win the fights that later on present a good challenge. Combos represent a series of button presses that result into an impressive line of movements and fighting moves.

It's a great way to let out some steam and dish out some pain so if you have a friend you don't enjoy very much and you want to show him that in a non-violent way...play some fighting games. Good fight - good night!
