King of Fighters Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 There is a good chance that my gym might close so i was wondering if it is a good idea to buy tekken 4 or vitrua fighter 4 to see what style of martial art i might like to take. Is this a good idea or the worste idea that you have ever heard?
Radok Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 Get tekken 4. tekken 3 has given me great ideas for combos. If you can't laugh at yourself, there's no point. No point in what, you might ask? there's just no point.Many people seem to take Karate to get a Black Belt, rather than getting a Black Belt to learn Karate.
adrenline Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 uhh, thats one of the worst ideas ive ever heard. if you wanna choose a style, read up on them, watch videos of the techniques, watch videos of the style in a combat setting (like a tournament), etc etc. my website: http://www.liquidfission.commy forums http://www.liquidfission.com/phpbb
DokterVet Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 heheh, Both games will demonstrate the techniques of various martial arts, but not neccessarily their effectiveness or actual applications. Don't go with whatever martial art your favourite Tekken or VF fighter uses, but use them to see what various martial arts look like. 22 years oldShootwrestlingFormerly Wado-Kai Karate
PhilM1 Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 i agree with andren@aline. You can buy the game just for fun yeah that would be great. But i reccomand looking into arts. Going to the Google martial arts page. Getting more into mma and researching. and after all street fighter could beat tekken any day!!! BOOH YEAH!!!! fight til you die
King of Fighters Posted May 6, 2003 Author Posted May 6, 2003 I agree, i like street fighter games better than tekken but tekken has real styles and actual moves that could show stuff from a style.
PhilM1 Posted May 6, 2003 Posted May 6, 2003 true, whats your favorite street figher? fight til you die
King of Fighters Posted May 6, 2003 Author Posted May 6, 2003 Marvel vs capcom 2, its not exactly a street fighter game but its my favourite capcom fighter. street fighter 2 would be my second choice.
Tombstone Posted May 6, 2003 Posted May 6, 2003 I think its a bad idea but if thats what you want to do then go for it.
monkeygirl Posted May 6, 2003 Posted May 6, 2003 Street Fighter Alpha 3 is better than Marvel Vs. Capcom...combos are too easy in the latter Those games are great for fun, but are hardly ever realistic. A lot of the time, different characters will have blended styles, so no one style is ever "true". 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
