Default Video Games

As part of my daily relaxation I like to play a few Fighting Video games. I was wondering If any of you think that they are good, bad, not worth it, good training aids etc.

Some of my favs are UFC: Tapout, Dead or Alive 2, Virtua Fighter 4, The Tekkan series.

I only play them for about 30 min a night before bed. I was wondering if any of you play some good Fighting Games?

The PRIDE FC vidoegame is out in Japan and will be released here in the U.S. in a month or so. And only for the PS2. An old but good game is Street Fighter EX3 for the PS2. Knockout Kings is also really good and don't waste your time on that new Mike Tyson game, it sucks!

Szczepankiewicz will become famous soon enough
Question

How is the connection between Video Games and Martial Arts made? You insist (repeatedly) that all topical discussions be restricted to Martial Arts. I realize that these games are fighting games, however, do they add value to your training as a mystical warrior?

Not in the least. There are some very unrealistic games. But then games are also becoming more and more realistic aswell eg, UFC tapout.

Im not saying in anyway that video games are better, realistic etc. to real fighting im just saying that there are good MA games out there. Its just like watching a MA movie only you get to be in control.

You wouldn't say any Bruce Lee movies are crap now would you?

Thanks for the reply
