Super Street Fighter 2 was about the epitome of the SF series for me. Likewise, I look at MK2 as the pinnacle of the MK set (UMK3 wasn't terrible, but by then they'd gone from brooding and scary to just downright ridiculous and silly). Soul Calibur 1 > Soul Calibur 2, and Tekken 3 was as good as I ever saw a 3d fighter.

All time favorite?

Hmm. I can't pick just one.

I probably put the most time into MK2, but looking back, the game wasn't very "good." Certain moves just had ultimate priority and playing the game was mostly about picking a character who could hold priority against the guy your opponent picked. I'm torn on the Street Fighter series, because I loved the look and features of Super Street Fighter 2, but the 4 new characters were never balanced enough to be taken seriously. So all in all, I'm going to have to stick with Tekken 3 as my favorite, I think.
