I play alot of video games, as I assume nearly all of us do and I consider myself an above average gamer. I enjoy all genres of games ; shooters, rpg's, action, MMO's and the sort. However, there's just one genre that I can't grasp : Fighting games.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy fighting games, I always get sucked into buying the newly released ones. What I'm trying to get at is that while I considering myself above average in all other types of games, I'm just weak in comparison when I play fighters. I flat out suck horrendously.
I know I'm terrible, yet I just keep getting sucked into buying them because its so tempting to better myself! Street Fighter 4, Marvel Vs Capcom 3, and I even recently just purchased Skullgirls. While I play these games I just can't seem to get better at all! I follow guides, I follow tutorials, I even experiment and try to develop simpler combos going into advanced ones but when it comes to a match against another player, I just go blank. I guess i'm not used to reacting fast or whatever but I need some help badly!
So I ask you, do any of you have any tips on how to become better at Fighting games?
