I popped into my Xbox after a long time of not playing it and man SvCC definitely pisses all over it. My SNK fanboyism doesn't help matters, but SvCC just feels so much better and more fun. SvCC isn't one of the greatest Neo releases, but its the best of the SNK vs Capcom series in my opinion.
Okay, its offical, SvCC pisses all over CvS2

Couldn't disagree with you more.
CvS2, despite it's flaws, remains a very solid, playable, competitive fighting game. The available offensive/defensive options are massive, and the exploitable cheese is kept to a minimum, with only high-level players able to really break the game. The character sprites are much better looking, and the game just plays very well.
SVC has more flaws than a $50 diamond. The endless stream of bugs, ugly BGs, bad tunes, and horribly busted secret characters gives me a headache when I even get near the machine. It's an insult to those of us who proudly boasted for years about how much justice the real SNK would have done to the Capcom lineup. Chun-Li looks like pure shit.

I'm with loopz on this one. CvsSNK2 is far better than SvsC. Better/more characters, better backgrounds, better story, better layout of buttons and grooves.

Sorry, I have to also disagree.
I personally never could get into the CvS series [God knows I've tried to...] but when compared to SvC, it's easily a far more polished, developed and thought-out game series.
Don't get me wrong, I actually really like SvC, but to say that it pisses all over CvS2...? That's just doesn't seem correct.
Like I said, I don't really care much for CvS2, but I can certainly appreciate all the work that went into developing its fighting engine -- it literally has something for everyone; while SvC is basically just KOF, minus the running and rolling.
But hell...if I had to pick between SvC and CvS2? I'd take SvC anyday.
*side note - I don't know what the hell Loopz is talking about with Chun-Li...she looks pretty damn good in SvC.

I just dont get it, so many people are slagging off all the new neo games, First kof 2001 was no good 2002 not much better rotd was hated and now even svc.
I bought the cart and yes it has a few little bugs and is a bit unbalanced, but what are you expecting perfection. And to say that cvs2 is a better game just seems silly. I have had every version of it but the x box one and all of them look horrible. Only the DC version seems to have nearly as smooth sprites as cvs 1.
I hear so much complaining, (I know) But nobody seems to want to say wich neo games they actually like. And if everyone says kof 98 Im going to scream because we all know its good. Is svc really worse than kof 97 99 2000 of aof 2 or kizuna or rb, (maybe rb) I dont know Im just whining now. Sorry. I like the fucking game ok.

Some people just have strong opinions, that's all. I'll tell you straight off that I play and love playing SvC. I think it's a real fun game, but it's problems are really glaring. This is definitely a sequel game, where the next will (hopefully) fix all that was wrong plus add more.
This isn't as good as CvS2 though, not by a long shot. All consoles of CvS2 look graphically the same. I have all 3 console versions, and I'm willing to bet that if I ran one of those versions through my capture card you'd have no idea which one it was. The only real difference amongst all of them is that the Xbox has longer loading and the Roll-Cancels taken out.
CvS2 has 6 Grooves which give you the feel for that certain type of Capcom/Snk game. This game has all the characters plus tons of replayability when you factor in that characters are to be played totally different within a specified groove. You can tell a lot of time went into making this game the grandaddy of them all. That's why this is one of the most played serious competitive fighters today, and will be for the next 10 years. This is something SvC will never be able to claim - except for maybe the sequel if they do what they need to do.
Still though, people will shit on every new Neo release. It's just a habit this site has. You can tell who likes what newer Neo games by the threads in the Game Play forum where people discuss certain strats for games such as Matrimelee, ROTD, etc. I must say though, most of the people doing the bitching are the ones who buy the homecart, because I'll agree with them - most of the new releases aren't worth the $335+ price tag, but it doesn't make them bad games - especially if you're an arcade nut. Worth $335? Nah. Worth $50 port? You betcha. Worth the 25/50 cents per play at your local arcade? That, my friend, is that the Neo has always been about

I find SvC to be a good game despite its problems.I like the dash.It is faster than CvS2 and the recovery is also good, allowing you to pull out attacks in an instant.It almost has the same recovery as the run in KOF, probably even faster.I also like the guard cancel dash which is very useful if you are trapped in the corner and it also allows you pull off a free combo.
As for features, CvS2 definately has the edge with the groove selection and all.CvS2 also has better graphics but SvC's graphics is also pretty decent for a neo.
Both CvS2 and SvC:C has its flaws but it is really hard to choose which game is better.I find CvS2's gameplay to be not that solid and a little floaty and SvC has balance issues.

I'm with the original poster.
Capcom made it gay.
SNKP made it dark.
take your pick: gay or dark.
I understand that a lot of you got wet when LWK posted the thong threads - that a lot of you love the cock.
I on the other hand, love SvCC.

Sorry dude, this artwork is about as gay as it gets...
Kyo gettin' down to deliver the deep throat, while Ryu readies the Shin-Donkey Punch.
All kidding aside, I love teh cawk. EW's is my fave. If you're gonna take it in the ass, it might as well be the size of a Q-Tip tip like Unca Charlie's.

Oh geez thanks alot Loopz.
Now I'll be having KyoxRyu thoughts all day today.
And I was perfectly happy with my BillyxVega thoughts.
I like both CvS2 and SvC, though CvS2 has waaaaay more cheese than anyone wants to admit.
Blanka, anyone?

ewww, just thinking of you thinking about XXX_KyoxRyu_XXX is creeping me out
. Although that image isn't 1/10 as teh_gay as the Street Fighter V anime series (DESPITE having Chun li in the series, the only "fanservice" shower scene is in the "male chained heat" prison episode, with a long lovingly slow pan on Sagat's BARE ASS!!!11 I am not making this shit up.)
Anyway, hmmm... Blanka...
I know! Blanka + Joe for team butt taunt!

both games fuckin suck if you ask me its just which one sucks worse. some things I like in one game, certain things i like in the other game but i really doubt SvC "pisses" all over CvS2.
HOWEVER SvC Geese pisses all over CvS2 Geese
my many victims here at ng.com can vouch for that *coughsongohancough*

CvS2 is superior to SvC. Blanka isn't cheese. The only cheese going on in CvS2 is A-Sakura, really. It's not half as buggy as the lame hit detection found in SvC, easy infinities, and ass-backwards charge moves.
But the Capcom version isn't gay, nor is SNK's version dark. Shin Akuma/ God Rugal has to be the best final stage for any game. A whole burning town because of the combination of the two powers is just sick. Although I must give mad props to Red Arremer's stage, but it's hard to take seriously with the moves he has (sending zombies after you, etc.. seems pretty silly).
I really hope for all the stuff to be worked out in the next SvC though. It'll probably still be hard to play the Capcom characters without a medium button, something that the SNK cast in CvS2 benefitted from immensely, imo. What I really pray for is the gay charge motions to be fixed.

There's a good chance that the next SVC might be Atomiswave and not MVS though...
...which would mean six buttons? better graphics? better controls? no hit detection issues?
If the next SVC was Atomiswave would you guys even consider it a true sequel?
I too have to agree with most of the people here and say that CvS2 is the better game. Now if you compare the two number 1s(CvS to SvC) than SvC is better by far.
Take this in mind though, Capcom learned alot from the first game thats way the sequal is way better. Plus we all know how well SNK do there sequal (KOF 94-95, 97-98, SS 1- SS2 and so on)so there is a strong chance that SvC2 is going be a great game and even better than CvS2.

exactly, far more badass. CVS might be better in the competitive/tourney style department but SVC is a hell of a lot more fun.
CVS has a little too much "Capcom" in it for me. SNKP also did an amazing job with the Capcom peeps in SVC, best I have seen.
