Do any of you regularly play fighting games online on either 360 or PS3?
All day erryday. I play up to a few hundred matches every week online!
My question is like smash bros does lag almost 100% get in the way of someones skill? As in when people talk about tiers and such, are online matches never included?
Every fighter I've played on PS3 and 360 has better performance for Smash Bros. For games like BlazBlue, SF4, and HDR, it's extremely solid and the lag is unnoticeable if your connection is reasonable. Shoutouts to wireless connections being garbage
Tier lists that get passed around are usually based on tournament results and how the very best players perform, but there's still an amount of subjectivity to them, so take them with a grain of salt. Sometimes it's pretty obvious who the best characters are... and sometimes it's not. Sometimes it doesn't even matter and only comes down to individual matchups.
