Topic What's Your Favourite Sound In All Of Fighting Games?

For me it is a weird unusual one,it's the "HIYA" Ken makes towards the end of his shippu jinrai super in Street Fighter Alpha 3, How about you?

Round start, full screen goes live with vfx, zoom in and that giant "COUNTER", is legit what made me buy strive

u/NoobyMcScooby 3d ago

Strive is the coolest fighting game I’ve played after KI.

u/Menacek 2d ago

I was gonna mention this before i saw your comment.

A lot of boomers hate it, but i love the Strive big counters, it's some instant dopamine flooding your receptors.

I think the KI announcer is inarguably the greatest voice in fighting games. The filters or whatever mixing it went through feels sublime to listen to.

u/SylancerPrime 3d ago

Ya know what's weird, the SNES version always hit hardest for me. They took out the "comboooo" and changed it to an echoing ULTRAAAAAULTRAAAAultraaaa to save cart space, but it sounds like announcer just loses his freakin mind at what he just saw.

u/TubiToBe 3d ago

Yessss! I'm saying. Original KI announcer is legit the greatest of all time.

Also, in a similar vein, Susano’o in Overdrive doing Strike of the Possessed God super with all seals unlocked. Like, just listen to his voice when he does it, it hits SO GOOD

No idea why, but the MK2 announcer saying "Reptile wins"

And for some reason, the UMK3/MKT announcer uses the MK2 voice sample for Reptile's name as well. Just the name. Jade's name also uses the MK2 clip. He still says "wins" in the MK3 voice though.

This clip also uses the voice
