but anyways... like I said, it all depends on who you play. Any fighter can be a button masher vs other weak fighters. I hope Tekken 5 is online so I can prove myself

Point is button masher vs expert = expert win

Your joking right? SMB was/is a button masher if i ever saw one.

Neways about the list I disagree (duh) and as for SC2 being a button masher I disagree as well, although I do admit VF4 having a deeper fighting system. Today one of my friends was button mashing and me and my other friend totally destroyed him.
I think the air juggles are nice and take a certain level of skill to accomplish, I think Namco did a good job on the sequel.

You can button mash SSB, but if thats your tactic in fighting me, there is no way you will win.

Ditto.

SSB is the least likely button masher of them all. If you sit there and keep hitting A or B, everyone else will just move their character back and watch you make a fool out of yourself.

Whereas with Soul Calibur 2, I can close my eyes and violently molest the controller and end up winning a match.

Hmm well I agree SSB has skill to it for a simplistic fighting game, and there is many tactics there, but I don't think many of you have seen a proper SC2 challenge (for those who claim it's a button masher).

Watch 2 experts play and u will c. Also watch the experts kick the button mashers ass

I agree with you bobcat, I don't think SC2 is soley a button masher game I'm just saying that using a button mashing method in SC2 works. Not against people who know how to play the game but you can defeat some of the AI using button mashing. But if you put a button masher against someone who knows how to play the game, the expert will win, no doubt. But in SSB, button mashing won't do anything, unless you're pitted against a level 2 or 1 computer.
