best king of fighters

[Sybarite Paladin AxL]

most favorite (not in any particular order)

'98 for the old school classic KoF feel. Greatness

2k for the roster and freshness

2k2 because it's just great

 

least favorite:

'97

'99

Neowave (PS2 version has 3D backgrounds, I hate that. and the music is crappy)

 

I haven't played XI enough yet, my PS2's collecting dust. And I have mixed feelings about the new system. This goes for 2k3 too. Also 2k3 screwed up some commands to make them look like in CVS2, and I hate CVS2.

 

And even though it's not KoF, Neo Geo Battle Coliseum is one of my most favorite SNK games.

neogeo battle coliseum is brilliant,got it on the ps2 but i still like cvs2 on the dreamcast better.

if only we could get naomi emulation and atomiswave,i like all the ports of these games but you cant beat the real thing.

NGBC will always surpass any CVS. Although I did change my opinion about CVS2 the last couple of days. It's nice but nothing special in the end.

 

Also I'm playing 97 right now and it's actually better than I remembered. Certainly not my least favorite anymore. That's 99 atm.

 

Also if you have a chance, give the fan-made MUGEN KoF Zillion a spin. It's actually nice quality

Just unrar the game and play . This is the latest version so far.

 

Main highlights:

*2D Alba Meiraa

*Another Iori fully playable

*Stupidly hard and challenging Ai (does not read your inputs to know how to fight you) but tends to repeat itself.

*A lot of fighters have an EX version. Just select them normally while holding down Start. Also some characters have a second EX version.

To get it, select the character normally. Then, during the load time between fights, hold down the Start and Down buttons simultaneously.

*Mizuchi and Orochi in the same game.

*Many characters have been edited so that they look somewhat better than compared to the olden games. For instance, Orochi and Igniz have a crouch animation.

*Many great custom characters

*A lot of other great stuff.

 

The only downside is that mine exits randomly, but that's just my computer that needs a format.

the one I liked the best is kof96, then I dunno, 2k1 was pretty good and I liked kof 97 a lot too what I really hate about games after kof 2k is the artwork, I am really picky about that I guess but they look like pokemon spawns heh, anyway to me the kof fighting series is the best one ever released to date
