Been playing these two fighters a lot lately, and it got me wondering.
Which are your favorite KoF/Fatal Fury games, hell even throw some Samurai Showdown if you feel like it.
Samcho 2 is my favorite btw.
-
Real Bout 2
KOF 96/98/2002
All the Samurai Showdown games except V
-
Fatal Fury - Either RBFF or RBS.
Favorite KOF: '97
Favorite SS: SSIV

I could spend hours looking at the backgrounds.

still amazing to me

DROOLING!

Yeah I gotta go with what I "personally" like the best, even though it's not the best in the series. I love KoF 94 and I always will. KOF 98 for just the animation and characters. Althena is super cheap in 98 though. She's way unbalanced. I also love KOF2k. There are all these little things though that give me something to like about all the KOF games. (even kof2k1)
-
Yea, SNK is king.
I loved KOF '95 pretty much forever until '98 (AKA KOF '99 Dream Match on Dreamcast)
I'm not sure I've ever really enjoyed a KOF as much as those two since, but I've heard good things about KOF XIII.
Mark of the Wolves and Real Bout Special RULE the universe!!
-
Real Bout 2 is pretty great, but there are some things about Real Bout Special I still really like that didnt make it into RB2, like the goofy announcer. Obviously MotW is f*cking great.
With KOF...honestly, they are all great. 95 is great if you like taking 3/4 off a life bar with one simple combo. 94 is the weakest, and 2001 is too damned weird for me...but still amazing in its own f*cked up Eolith way. 97 has a terrific story mode, same with 96. 98 has a great cast and fixes many problems with the earlier games that cast came from. 2000 is boring in one player mode but extremely refined for versus play. 2002 is really cool all around, 99 is maybe the most polished, and 2003 is the easiest ones to get non-SNK people into.
I guess I like 03, 2000, 2002, and 98 best.
Non-Neo KOFs: XI is interesting but I just couldn't get into it. XII is really lame, XIII is absolutely terrific.
Neo Wave is dead to me. R-1 and R-2 are the best portable KOFs we will ever get. Maximum Impact is beautiful but bullshit.

f*ck!
what is this bkg from?

SVC Chaos is complete crap...

SVC Chaos is complete crap...
I prefer to think of it as a beta. It has some really good art in it, it's just unfinished.

I was talking mostly of the game play, it feels really broken, but the art is good.

Kof '96
Real Bout Special
Garou
Last Blade
Gowcaizer

KOF 99 was one of my first KOF experiences. I always played capcom fighters as a kid, and never played SNK until i started branching out in games. I also really enjoy MOTW. But my favorite would have to be KOF XIII, since i play this game competitively
-
KOF '98
MotW
still need me to get BOTH!
and..
Samurai spirits (for being the original)
Shin samurai spitits (for being the best)
-
Gowcaizer
Always wondered about that one. Have never played it, but I dug the anime bitd. Masami obari designs were so loooong and pointy.
-
Gowcaizer is a very niche appeal. Most will not like it, but if it's your thing it's good times. It helps that I just play fighters for fun, I have no interest at all in competition, hence I could care less about balance and sub-systems. Just fun.
-
KOF 99 is the shit.
P.S. - Kim in da man.
-
Gotta go SS2, just for amount of time I've spent playing it with friends.
MotW is just god like, but I enjoy RB2 for some fun.
KoF97 is my goto, the music in 98 does nothing for me. After that, I sort of can't tell the differences since I'm not hard core KoF fan. XIII is the best thing SNK could have done with the series; brought it back in HD keeping hand drawn sprites. I hope they can do that for other IP's they still have.
Ninja Masters is good fun that most ppl missed in the arcade. NeoGeoX should have put it back on everyone's radar. It's like a lost SF2 from BitD.

I'm sold!
Ninja Masters is another I never saw at the arcades. I saw MotW once at an arcade in Syracuse (ny.)

SvC Chaos here
-
I loved Mark of the Wolves since the first time that I saw it in an arcade. I've bought it for Dreamcast, PS2, and Xbox 360. A couple of years ago my roommate and I would determine who would do chores by who would win a set in various fighting games, mostly MotW and Super SF4. Good times.
-
Garou MOTW
Samurai Shodown 2
KOF 98,96
Waku Waku 7
Last Blade
RB2
-
SVC Chaos is complete crap...
I don't think it's bad game but it could have used more polished.Not to mention,how much it's hit detection is screwed up.

f*ck!

(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c232/endmemory/ggxxkr.jpg)
This is from a Guilty Gear, although I'm not sure which one.
I'm with pretty much everyone else, love KOF 98, Mark of The Wolves, the Real Bout games. I also go back to Art of Fighting 3 often for some reason.
-
That background's from the Korean version of Guilty Gear XX #Reload.
-
My rational side says SS2, RBS2 and KOF98
My heart says FF1 and SS1 because those are the ones I sank a billion quarters into as a kid. Always had a soft spot for FF1 even though it's primitive and the gameplay isn't the best.
-
Gowcaizer
Always wondered about that one. Have never played it, but I dug the anime bitd. Masami obari designs were so loooong and pointy.
Masami Obari has had a long and wonderful career and Gowcaizer is the absolute worst f*cking piece of shit he ever worked on. He clearly needs supervision, but otherwise he is a very talented guy with a lot of good work on his resume, and no I'm not talking about Fatal Fury.
If I had to sum up Gowcaizer in one world, that world would be "gross". It is so so gross.

Worst Obari creation? No way dude. That title belongs to Angel Blade....

No doubt. I actually remember playing SS1for the first time, but #2 took my money! Lol

Since we're talking all around Neo fighters and not just KOF, I have to go with Waku Waku 7 as my favorite Neo fighter. I just love the characters and style of the game. It's also really well balanced to me. Character select music is the best EVER!
BTW, WTF is wrong with Angel Blade? O:)

Go watch it and see for yourself. I'll give you a hint though, if you look at the credits, everyone that worked on it is uncredited, as none of the people wanted to be associated with it. Except for Obari himself, as he's quite proud of his accomplishment...
Waku 7 is a game that I just can't seem to get into. It's good, but I just don't seem to enjoy it as much as I'd like. I'd rather play Matrimelee, which is another Neo great.

Damn, gonna have to watch it again.

Matrimelee has some of the best music from a cart game ever
