Best Dreamcast fighting games?

What are the best Dreamcast fighting games,in your opinion? I'm a massive Street Fighter fan-should I get all the capcom vs. Snk,marvel vs. capcom and street fighter 3 games?

So far,I think these are excellent :
*Dead Or alive 2
*soul calibur
*capcom vs. snk 2


Good :
*Street fighter 3 : double impact
*Fatal Fury:Mark of the Wolves

Dissapointing :
*Guilty Gear X(maybe cuz I don't understand the text)
*Vampire Chronicles(as above)
*Virtua Fighter 3(stinks compared to almost any other fighting game)
*Mortal Kombat Gold

Besides Soul Calibur, your list is missing Marvel vs Capcom 2. The second best fighter for DC...IMO

Project Justice is unique and kind of quirky, but a lot of fun.

Give Guilty Gear X more time the game is great . If your having text issues pick it up for the PS2. Vampire Chronicle I THINK im not entirely sure can probably be turned into english by hitting a few dip switches. I know this was true for Super Street Fighter 2X, and Puzzle Fighter. I'd have to ask DLogic he owns them.

Soul Calibur, Powerstone2, Guilty Gear X, DOA2 Hardcore and Marvel v. Capcom2 are all excellent. I didn't really care for any of the virtua fighter games.

Don't forget Tekken 3 with the Bleemcast disc. : )

The DC is probably one of the best fighting game consoles ever. There's Soul Calibur, SFA3, SFIII:3S, MOTW, CVS, CVS2, SSFFIIT, Vampire Chronicles, Guilty Gear X, Last Blade 2. The only one missing franchise is Sam Sho. Last Blade comes close, but it ain't no Sam Sho.

The PS has a good selection too, as does the Saturn. The PS2 has a pretty poor selection (unless you include PS games).

If you own Soul Calibur..... is anything else really needed? I think not.

The legend will never die!!

As many others have said, Soul Calibur is the best... I spent so much time on that the first time I got it... best $5 at a pawn shop I've ever spent...

I'll also second Project Justice... it's quite fun. Not in the same league as Soul Calibur, but it's a lot of fun... I'm currently working on unlocking all of the characters...

Disappointed with SFIIIouble Impact and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

keep a close eye on ebay...every few days one of these games slips through the crowd,only gets a few bids and you'll get lucky.

UFC It is just plain badass. Half of the fun is taking on a button masher and making them tap in 2 seconds. I like to call it the "make someone my bitch" factor.
