I wish I could play against people online but I'm just plain horrible at these. I can beat the arcade modes and my friends most of the time but playing online is a whole other thing... I usually end up losing in a few seconds, unless I happen to have a fluke which doesn't really happen often. They still appeal to me in such a weird way, can't get enough of 'em.
I actually loved SFxT. The gem system is confusing as hell which is a turnoff but I found the tag teaming and the characters to be fun. We played it with a friend for hours. I don't really play any Tekken games so this is pretty much the only "Tekken" game I have. I also love crossover games for some reason. Might make a thread for that later on.
Pretty much the only letdown I've had with these games has been KoFXII. While the game is overall fantastic the online is almost unplayable and there is no story in the Arcade. Beating my own scores gets boring pretty quick.
Ah, I was thinking you knew how to play fighting games...
Dude, no respectable fighting game player takes online seriously anyway. Tournaments and Arcades is where the "respect" comes from.
Everyone who doesn't know how to play fighting games gave it a good review and everyone else on Eventhubs, SRK etc gave it shite reviews. It's a crap game with broken mechanics. It's THAT bad the community didn't want to see it at EVO 2012 and WON'T be appearing at EVO 2013. It's a terrible game and easily the biggest flop of this year and one of this generations.
Wait what? KoFXII sucked dude. It was a well known bad game, but KoFXIII is a frikkin' incredible and fixed everything wrong with KoFXII. EVO was HYPE when that showed. I quit KoF now though because it was just filler for TTT2

Unfortunately the fourth Soul Calibur was a bit of a letdown, not much 1-player fun to be had. Soul Calibur 3 is the best in my opinion due to it's storylines and alternative RTS-ish gamemode 
Yeah Soul Calibur has had great orchestral music. I never really learned how to play Soul Calibur on the level of Tekken or SF but SCV has me interested to learn.
I liked SC 2 because it had Link.....Link. A great addition who suited the game well!
Trudat - It's always nice to play an extra-world character 
One day, there will be a game with all major characters from all major game companies. Just gotta get around the niggle that is licensing
But we still get those.
Spawn and Heihachi in the Xbox/PS2 version respectively. We got Kratos in Mortal Kombat. Toro, Pacman, Kuro, Megaman and Cole from InFamous in SFxT.
