Top Ten Strangest Guest Characters In Fighting Games

  • Fighting Games will sometimes employ a guest character from another franchise, whether the guest is from a video game or somewhere completely different. I'm making two videos on this topic to find the most notable ones the both fit in nicely or stuck out more than they should have. This is the list with the more outlandish choices that may have still been fun to play, yet were not the greatest fits with the universe. AT from SoftwareAgentsCorp is here, too (along with working on a majority of the footage).
    Video game footage recorded by A.T. and Sam Gonzalez. Additional sound and video game footage editing by Danny Bereza and R. Michelle Marcel.

      too animated and cartoonish, plus they didn't have the rights to him. KI focuses on very gritty, monster like characters...most of the characters are either humans with powers or monsters...most of them fairly stereotyped. werewolf, alien, skeleton pirate, cyborg, mummy like sorcerer, vampire...i'm surpised they didn't give us a couple of new characters that wasn't an elf and an ork to be honest. oh and Tusk is a barbarian who lives forever...he can be killed but he doesn't age (hence why he is 10,000 years old). KI has always been very bloody and dark...a animated character wouldn't fit.

      Also kratos can get around 60% with bar. Which is stupid. He asks I has a parry that goes through projectiles and hits and it's can launch when projectiles are parried. Then the parried hit stuns enough to get a lot of damage.

      @@KushyCouch I agree with all of these except Kratos. I mean yes he was slow, and very underpowered compared to the rest of the MK9 roster but that's because it's a fighting game. They have to do it for balancing issues. Otherwise if they use guest characters at their full power they'd either be massively underpowered or too overpowered and Kratos is no exception. I mean think about it if they used his power level from the god of war games he would destroy the entire MK (and Soul Calibur) roster.

    • @MrTopTenList
      @MrTopTenList  8 лет назад +4

      Yeah, I see that. I agree on Raam. He felt boring and bland. Arbiter I liked since he was a humanoid alien, which fit in with the aesthetic to me. I could imagine him as a solider from another dimension since we have lots of characters from other dimensions in KI. If I had known Raam was coming out when I made this video, I may have put him on the list over Rash since at least Rash has a personality.

RAAM on the other hand, the dude shanks people and gets some pretty good combos, and honestly his inclusion really starts to grow on ya after stabbing everyone on the roster through the sternum.

      Agreed! Saying that Kratos is a weird guest character for MK just because they had to nerf him isn't a valid argument on why he's an unsuitable fit. Yes he was slow and very underpowered compared to the rest of the roster but that's because it's a fighting game. They have to do it for balancing reasons. If they used Krato's full power from the God of war games he would destroy the entire MK (and Soul Calibur) roster single handedly. Otherwise he's a perfect fit for the grandaddy of all violent video games.

    Kratos was totally at home in the MK series. This was a great list, even with a couple self-contradictions. The only other character I could think of for a list like this would be Heihachi's appearance in Soul Calibur 2. While he isn't strange in the aesthetic sense, it is strange for him - as a hand-to-hand-specific character - to be in a weapons-based fighting game.

    i've got one fighting game that some may have heard of, but it doesn't get like any attention on the net. Onimusha Blade Warriors on PS2. as we all know, Onimusha is pretty much a demon/horror themed hack n slash placed in feudal japan era. but in the spinoff Blade Warriors, it becomes a 2.5D fighting game that uses the main games' mechanics. now as for the guest characters. given the series is owned by Capcom, it seemed fitting to have Capcom characters as guest characters. but for who they chose, it was MegaMan.EXE and Zero (GBA version) mixing it up with samurai and demons. even though it seems weird to have these 2 as guests, they actually played pretty well. i thoroughly enjoy playing as Zero and getting his stats boosted to dominate the field

    Here's my argument for Rash.
    Killer Instinct's characters are generally inspired by various tropes and other characters in other mediums in parody form. You have Fulgore who is practically a Terminator/Predator/Robocop hybrid, Cinder is just a more sadistic Human Torch, TJ Combo looked like Apollo Creed and Sabrewulf needs no explanation.
    Rash I think fits this perfectly because his series was often seen as a Ninja Turtles parody so in that sense I think Rash fits perfectly.
    He is still an oddball character when you put him next to everyone else, but to me that's not much different from say, a boxer getting into a fight with a mummy, Killer Instinct is boarderline Saturday Morning cartoon when you think on it and that's not a bad thing in fact it's one of the reasons I love KI.
    Great video though, I could understand where your points were coming from with Rash.

      Rash was a nice addition to Killer Instinct if I may say so myself despite not usually being in favor of guest characters. Rash is goofy but oddly I think he does fit somewhat within the KI universe cause despite it's dark tone and nature there are very lighthearted elements to the game in fact the Battletoad Arcade game was actually pretty violent and even more so than KI.

    The reason I don't find Yoda, Vader, or Galen Marek out of place is because the basis for these characters are medieval-esque futuristic beings. Vader's initial design is even based off of that of Shogun Samurai armour. Also, Star Killer isn't canon to Star Wars.

    I would say Cloud is more out of place in Smash Bros. than Snake. Though they appeared on other platforms; the Metal Gear series can, at least, be argued to have gained it's familiarity in gaming culture through the NES games. Cloud, on the other hand, got his origin on a Sony platform because Square didn't want to work with the limitations of the N64.
    Has Cloud even appeared on a Nintendo system prior to Smash? I mean other than GBA Kingdom Hearts and bit parts in ports of FF Tactics, which he was just a guest character in?
    Also, while Kratos's does seem out of place, the characters in Mortal Kombat kill gods all the time. Shinnok and Raiden are both playable gods in MK. So it does make sense that Kratos's weapons would be normal in a universe where Johnny Cage can take a spear to the heart and still go on to kill a god with a punches and kicks.

    • @MrTopTenList
      @MrTopTenList  8 лет назад +4

      I can respect that analysis. Cloud actually fit a bit more compared to Snake to me on the fact that he fit the tone of Smash Bros with all the fantasy elements of Fire Emblem and Legend of Zelda. He fits if you look at him as a "pure guest," as in a character unrelated to anything Nintendo. As a legitimate inclusion in Smash Bros under the credentials of being an important character in Nintendo's history, he doesn't work, though. As for the MK stuff, that's good logic. I always saw Shinnok or Raiden as downgrading the power of their weapons to gain their mortal forms, but that's just how I looked at it. I never was clearly stated, so I could be wrong on that.

    • @Sweetestsadist
      @Sweetestsadist 8 лет назад +5

      *****
      No, they did downgrade. Raiden willfully did so in order to compete and Shinnok is a fallen god. But the gods in God of War do similar things while staying immensely powerful. Plus Shinnok is supposed to have all his godly powers when he has his amulet as he does at the end of MKX.
      Still, Kratos does seem weird.

  • @fluttershystayshigh4202

    in order to understand why Kratos wasn't king shit in the MK universe you have to understand MK's story of the difference in matter vs our demension and outworlds, its quite interesting actually but hard to grasp, its the whole reason Kahn was trying so hard to merge our two realms in the previous stories, cause if he succeeded the weapons on earth would be powerless, basically shit like guns would be nothing more than a bee sting to them, hence why characters like Cassy Cage in MKX can fire entire clips at their opponent but the match still continues "yeah their IS a reason for that according to the story" its a shame most MK fans don't give a shit about the story cause its really cool, but yeah Kratos was actually a perfect guest character, a hell of a lot better than a fucking xenomorph from the Alien movies.. lol

    • @MrTopTenList
      @MrTopTenList  7 лет назад +1

      I like the way you think! I'm also one of those MK fans who loves all the lore (it's why I actually enjoy MK Mythologies: Sub-Zero, despite the subpar game mechanics). The Kratos section was partially a joke on how Kratos would more realistically work in MK. The only truth to that segment was that I initially found him somewhat strange since they never explained how he's on the level of the other gods that downgrade their power for a human form, like Raiden or Fujin, like how the explained Freddy's presence. It wasn't meant to be such a serious-sounding segment. I've actually broken down the MK lore in other videos, like when I analyzed the relationship between Johnny Cage and Sonya in my Fighting Game Couples video or I spoke about how Outworld sunlight doesn't affect Nitara like Earthrealm sunlight in my Fighting Game Vampires video.

      Thanks a lot! While I never contacted them directly, AT needed some helped editing down the large amount of footage, so he contacted them. They helped, which meant me or AT would not have to go through hours of footage to find the right clips for the main video. He lets me know who helps and I want to give them credit, so it works! That being said, certain videos are on larger scales and need more help with footage, so the network of people varies from video to video. Also, I am much more of a Sony/Nintendo guy, but since KI was initially with Nintendo in its Rare days, I still follow it. I like the characters both old and the ones they're still creating.

    Kratos is far more fitting in Mortal Kombat than Freddy or Jason!(Who I also love in the MK games)
    But Id argue he is extremely fitting. He's violent, he eviscerates his enemies and he deals with Gods and the supernatural. Everything Mortal Kombat revolves around.
    And trying to critique Kratos being misplaced in MK because his weapons scaled down is pointless in a game that has characters surviving X-ray attacks.
    I mean if your gonna argue such petty details. Then you can say his weapons haven't been leveled up yet, like they do in the the God of War games. All his weapons start off at level 0. So there you go. His scaled down weapons in Mortal Kombat explained.

    • @whitelichmage7004
      @whitelichmage7004 3 года назад

      @Sub Saibot Agreed! Saying that Kratos is a weird guest character for MK just because they had to nerf him isn't a valid argument on why he's an unsuitable fit. Yes he was slow and very underpowered compared to the rest of the roster but that's because it's a fighting game. They have to do it for balancing reasons. If they used Krato's full power from the God of war games he would destroy the entire MK (and Soul Calibur) roster single handedly. Otherwise he's a perfect fit for the grandaddy of all violent video games.
