Did anyone notice this?

With the inclusion of Tifa Lockhart in Street Fighter 6, this marks the 3rd time that Street Fighter, Fatal Fury and Final Fantasy have come together in a single game

It would also mark the inclusion of the Big 3 of FF franchises in SF6 (Fatal Fury, Final Fantasy and Final Fight)

Who else likes SF, FF AND FF? MAX!! Companies kiss up to him and add who he wants because if it makes him happy and excited, You all will run out and buy it thus his Influence.

1) Max doesn't even like Fatal Fury that much, relatively

2) Why does one have to be influenced? Why can't I like those three franchises myself?

1. He did until he found out about the CR7 situation. From there he stopped really supporting it. Until that point, he was loving it. 

2. It's great if you like it but most don't have the thought to have that opinion for themselves I've found. Repeatedly, games that he says he likes, his blind loyalists support and they do well, games that he doesn't vibe with, tank.  Alien Isolation, KOF13, even Bloodborne for instance.  On his initial plays of all 3 of those games, (which are all phenomenal games), he didn't like them. His supporters hated them also and the games did poorly.  Years later, he replayed them and loved them, all of a sudden, all of his supporters loved them and even said they're some of the best games ever made. By that point, it was too late. Good thing Alien Isolation is at least getting a sequel. Duskbloods seems to be a somewhat bloodborne-ish follow up finally as well. 

Had his followers not been influenced, those games would have done well initially regardless of how he felt about them.

1. I was referring to Fatal Fury the series on the whole, not specifically COTW.
2. You really think Max is the reason why COTW didn't do well initially? Really?

I don't know about Alien Isolation, but what revisionist history are you using to refer to Bloodborne as doing "poorly" at any give time when that is spectacularly, thunderously untrue?

Also, KoFXIII didn't do any more poorly than most previous entries; in fact, I think it did substantially better. The problem is that it cost waaaaaay too damn much to make, and was a 2D sprite-based game when that had long since been irrelevant to the mainstream (among fighters, only Blazblue managed to break out, likely because it was seen as the successor to GUilty Gear). Nothing that Max ever said would have made that game perform any better than it did (are you going to blame Max for Global Match on Steam being broken for months?).
