I was there day 1 on ps2 playing the original. I still remember after years of owning it, I hooked it up via ethernet to play online and the fucking servers closed down a few hours later.

I started at 4U. sometimes I feel like "geez you kids have no idea how good you had it" at times. then again 4U was streamlined from Tri, 3U, etc... so I cant say it that much.

yeah I remember being pissed at Generations Ultimate monsters going in the water... and staying there. it was very annoying. I dint remember if 4U did because if they did it was very rare.

It started as your typical sweaty game for Asian try hard audience and as it got more popular it was getting enough polish to cater towards casual international consumer while still,to a degree,being able to keep the sweats interested.

World catapulted the series into mainstream but o still enjoy the bulshit Dos does.
