How about talking the Fatal Fury series and their non-canon sub-series? Fatal Fury was a pretty interesting game, although it got much better with the release of Fatal Fury: Special and the Real Bout and Garou: Mark of Wolves. Should SNK return the series to the original glory instead of just relying in ports of The King Of Fighters series?

Fatal Fury was and is the best 2d fighting game series ever done.

Beats Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Guilty Gear, Marvel Vs Capcom, KOF, Samurai Shodown by far.

Terry set the STANDARD


Only Motw sucks since its shallow compared with the Real Bout games

Of course.

There are also millions of people which find farmville is fun as hell.

If you like it..okay..but accept MY opinion that i dislike it.

Its characters, its look, its music..its gameplay. I dont like it and find it SUCKS compared to the RB games

he just hates the new characters, and i like what they did to terry in motw remove the raising tackle cause he has his power dunk already. and faster burning knuckle for defensive counter. and lessen the comical characters and added more serious ones hey even dong hwan is serious when in battle he's even considered more power than his brother. the only character that doesn't fit in imo is hokutomaru yes he is andy's student but he doesn't really have a "story". he just fights because andy got tired of him.

i really want to see a continuation for the motw they need to add joe and his pupil. in kof terry and the other garou/motw characters are just for lol or just in there because of their popularity and doesn't have any involvement in the story. the only thing i don't like in motw was there was no roll or change position it feels like it ain't snk traditional game.

Fatal Fury is a classic which should not have ended like it did, the main three characters in particular are not shotoclones like happened with Art Of Fighting and I wonder if they wishes to add Andy and Joe in a possible Garou: Mark of The Wolves sequel. For you guys, it would better having brand new normal sized sprites or HD sprites in possible releases?

i would like to see them in an hd but different artstyle from kof, i would like snk to continue the motw artstyle. in my opinion it was the best art style for a fighting game in that era  imo that jazz music in motw was the best

At least the ps2 version has a gallery with those i think..maybe the dreamcast version too.

Sooner or later i play it and make screenshots of the gallery which i upload on my website like i did it with kof 2k2 UM artworks last week http://www.game-art-hq.com/king-of-fighters-2002-unlimited-match-official-artworks/

if you really want em, it might be my next project ..but i bet the most of em can be found somewher ein the internet already, or?

i really disliked the motw music. but yarr.. taste is different.

I personally preffer Fatal Fury as a 2d fighter, when I learned about Wild Ambition, I could not get closer to it. Did I really missed something?

Yes, a quite good Story Intro Movie and a nice arcade intro. It also had some nice music tracks. The gameplay itself was bad compared to the old FF games. Oh yes..it had Mr Karate as unlockable together with Duck King

What I'm going to ask now, doesn't really have much to do with the FF series, but as soon as I saw these posts, the image popped in my head (It is kind of a census question I make, without the actual data). What do you guys think of KoF MIRa?

I think the MI series is actually great - Character and Universe development. Sadly it doesn't appear to be canon or relevant ... I wish it was.

Let's focus more in Fatal Fury series. What do you guys thinks about Geese "2nd death"?

Loved KOF MI 2, in my opinion the KOF MI series was the only fighting game series so far where a company managed it to transform a 2d fighting game series to 3d, by adding new game play elements and not giving it just the 3d graphic (as seen with SF EX/SSIV,MVC3,FF Wild Ambition, MK 4,)

MK Deadly Alliance was a very different game than its 4 prequels..but the Mk team didnt port the 2d game very well..  MK2011 comes close but i think KOF MI2 still did it better, since Mk2011 is still mostly a 2d game with 3d graphic but 2d gmeplay mechanics

It is relevant to the Fatal Fury series, because it talks about South Town, and how after Geese's death, the Crime Syndicate is disbanded, and now the "underworld" of South Town is ruled by "Gangs" ... one of the most prominent ones is lead by the Meira Bros.

The game acknowledge's Geese's death as canon, and Billy Kane is a warrior without a clear path in life, who holds a great grudge against Terry. I think the Terry vs Billy rival cutscenes are the most engrossing in the game, as far as character development goes.

It's relevant, bitch.

That's a interesting story, however avoid making use of needless insults, we are not here to make arguments. In fact, the 1st Fatal Fury had "The King of Fighters" as the sub-title, although Fatal Fury: Special leaded to the KOF94. How about character tiers around the series?
