Ranking of Fighters 0032: Kensei: Sacred Fist & Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

Kensei one of my favorite fighting games. Hopefully the crew can check out Shao-Lin Lord of Fist as well!

TvC is the most underrated fighting game ever made don't @ me

"Intern" :D

Best lab coat the pineapple ? coat

TvC is so damn good. Here's hoping they rate it high!

@biggnife: This person speaks truths.

I have nearly bought Taksunoko vs Capcom no less than three separate times, maybe this will make me regret my life choices. It doesn't appear to be very expensive though so I could still pick it up.

Cave fight music is creepy =-(

Moving down the list?! This science is backwards!

This is MAD SCIENCE!!

So which is it? Is TvC really the new number 12 and thus better than SvC or is it below it? Did Ben bamboozle Jason or were they just both confused? WHAT'S GOING ON?

What the hell, is Douglas just supposed to be Steven Seagal? His portrait looks almost exactly like him, he's dressed like something Steven Seagal would wear in one of his movies and he even sorta fights the same way.

it's easily the best of last gen's VS games

Casshern was always my pick when a friend would try to cheese me with the boss characters in TvC. His charged punch turns into a command grab and just obliterates them.

I like how the first game ended with a race with Nine Inch Nails-esque music playing in the background.

@cheesus: came here to make same argument.

As impressive as the Temple Run extra in Kensei was, TvC had an unlockable Lost Planet top-down shooter.

Am I the only one who gets a little disappointed when the full cast isn't present? Which seems to be almost every week now..

@nasher27: Jeff is deathly ill, they can't exactly help it.

Douglas is just straight up Steven Seagal

Why didn't they fix the controls so Jason could throw punches?! Ahhhh!!!!

Did they not have all the characters, or did this version of TvC just not have Joe the Condor in it? I could swear he was in it, and he an all-time favorite anime character.

Always felt like I should watch more Tatsunoko stuff, only seen Science Ninja Team Gatchaman and all the Casshan shows. Their old super hero stuff is REAL good

yikes, Kensei is some bootleg-assed shit

The big characters from TVC aren't even boss characters, the boss is from Okami.

The Quick Look for Tatsunoko Vs Capcom was on Giant Bomb Infinite last night and I was super hoping it would be on a ranking of fighters sometime soon. And here it is!

Can we get a Grand Nagus skin for ZHOU? Please oh please.

@epidehl:

Joe the Condor and a bunch of others need to be unlocked first.

is uh..... is kensei haunted?

They didnt have any if the unlockable characters in TvC

TvC is the reason I still have a Wii U plugged in! Had a feeling after all the taunting on UPF last week that we might see this one coming soon...!

How can you play TvC without your resident anime expert?!

Ben, this is all you need to know about Tekkaman.

@shindupa: This is amazing

@romination: I think it might be, you know. Jeff isn't here for this one after all... Insider info for sure.

Gold Lightan!

Oh god, the first song in the second game is too much 90s Eurodance..

Kensei didn't look that bad

Still use my Tatsunoko fight stick! I remember it being the cheapest "good" fight stick for a long time, and it was for the wii!

"We need another WEIRD character. All the games these days have WEIRD characters...but we also have to go gold in the next week. Ideas?"

[sixteen hours later]

"FUCK IT! Bird head on a generic human body! I don't care anymore!!!"

Tatsunoko vs Capcom was robbed, it should've replaced Street Fighter vs Tekken on the list

Konami had the worst luck getting a Fighter franchise going.

The EPIC struggle....

Why does that robot look like a Western Digital Passport.

It was all fun and games until SF x T is placed above TvC. TvC is one of the greatest. Easily top 5 for me. Y'all tripping on it. Shame anime expert Jeff wasn't here for TvC.

Not fixing Jason's inability to throw punches in Kensei was fucking infuriating to watch. I don't like to be a huge complainer like that, but it shouldn't be too much to ask for to have the games actually working before you play and rank them.

Anyone else seeing this weird line on the left side of the frame?

The music for the Cave stage in Kensei is the best thing Mars Volta has done since Frances the Mute.

Ditto. I feel like Jeff would have never let that shit go down like that and would have enforced a bare minimum of production standards. If they can't be bothered to care about 1/3rd of the control set in fighting game missing, they should have skipped a week or done something they are actually interested in.

They didn't watch TvC's bangin' intro. What's even the point of ranking it without that?!

They didn't unlock anyone, including Zero or Tekkaman Blade.
