i wanted to make a suggestion for a new sub forum in the video game section just for fighting games. alot of YF members are into fighters and it makes sense considering we are already on a forum for a competitve game. it's a natural fit for most CCG players.

there could be a thread for all the "major" competitive fighting games:

Marvel vs.Capcom 3, Street Fighter IV, King of Fighters XIII, Mortal Kombat 9, Tekken, Smash Bros., and BlazBlue. also upcoming games like Street Fighter X Tekken, Soul Calibur 5, and Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

also some lesser known games like Skullgirls, Melty Blood, or Persona 4.

no older games like MvC2 or SF III though to keep it relevant.

the threads can be further divided into specific character discussion, upcoming tourneys, tiers, reports for local tourneys, etc. if multiple topics are made (like if we have 5 Ryu threads) the newest or least popular/least helpful thread would be deleted.

if i would be so bold i could moderate this sub forum (/\ _ /\) also someone like chaosmage or acegik would be perfect since they both have alot of experience in fighters.

i think this is a good idea since ALOT of threads in the video game section are devoted to fighters. it would clear up some space and help focus these kinds of discussions more.

Thanks for listening and let me know what you think!

My concern is that fighting games are a very small category, albeit a more competitive one than RPG, FPS, etcetera. I don't believe we have the activity or demand to sustain a section specific to a single genre of videogames.

The standard answer you'll hear is if it picks up in popularity we'll consider it. :)

ok fair enough. i just noticed alot more people talking about fighters than i would have thought so i thought it would have been a good idea.
