1997-2001: The PEAK of Fighting Games
I think a pretty common agreement is that the 2020s have been the spark of a new golden age of fighting games, with games like Guilty Gear Strive and Street Fighter 6 really leaning into promising times to come. With Tekken 8 on the horizon it made me think about what I would argue being the best span of years for the genre. Feel free to comment or leave suggestions!
NOTE: "Honorable Mentions" are games that aren't as widely played or acclaimed, but I felt were worth putting on the list in some capacity for their prominent artistic values.
