I was wondering if anyone would know of the ps2 anthologies would be better than aca neo geo. I was planning to get four of them. Here are the three I have left that I was going to get.
I was going to get the aca neo geo but they are 8 buck a pop the collections are a bit cheaper as a bundle (like four to five bucks a game). Should I get the collections instead of them separately? Thanks. And yes I know there is a samurai shodown and a metal slug too. Bit samurai shodown I can always get later on switch as there is a collection.
It's a really tough fight that I can't stop struggling with.
I was reading The King Of Fighters: The Ultimate History book which came up with a several interviews with nearly every director, artist, but the one that caught my attention was Kyo's first voice actor, Masahiro Nonaka. Nonaka wasn't confident with how to portray Kyo in order to make him as appealing as other famous SNK characters. During the interview, he says that he was big fan of a young singer and martial artist named Yutaka Osaki who died in 1992 when he was only 26 on unknown circumstances. Nonaka decided to use Osaki as his model when delivering Kyo's lines. This apparently was a major success but it goes even further. In the visual novel KOF: Kyo, there is a karaoke fight between Kyo and Iori. Nonaka sang "Pieces" The entire scene now feels like tribute Osaki especially when I read he basically has the same hobbies as Kyo. What do you think
guessing maybe next month they would show Mai Shiranui gameplay in SF6. though not sure about release date. so did they do it with Terry? a trailer then a release a month later? some think maybe january, but think the release gap isnt that large, could ready in the next 2 months though it can vary. I think she would wear a traditional outfit instead of COTW, but who knows. I have yet to sign up for the capcom account stuff, so havent accessed online in SF6. so I guess if I do get the DLC it would be for local versus CPU. they really should let the main cast free roam in world tour mode, that would be epic. the avatars are awesome, but they could have both usable there ya know in like a free mode. but of course capcom uses story excuses to limit their mode's selection. and how come they don't sell the chineses dresses the chinatown opponents wear at night?
but yea anyways, could be interesting how they design Mai in SF6. not expecting much though cause still say she looks and plays best in DOA 5 and DOA 6.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about SNK while playing their games, it’s that they have some pretty good music. From Fatal Fury to the King of Fighters, SNK’s got some pretty sweet themes for their character stages. And, much to my happiness, I’ve found that you can download songs from many of SNK’s games off the iTunes store. However, with this discovery, I find myself faced with a problem: deciding which songs I’m going to download. I’m sure most of you were able to figure this out, but I don’t have unlimited iTunes money, so that means I likely won’t be able to download very many songs to my iPhone. So, I’d like to know: what are all of your top picks for SNK music? Like, which songs do all of you consider to be the best and most worth downloading off the iTunes store? If you have any such recommendations, please share them down in the comments, and I’ll be sure to take them into consideration when I go to make my purchases.
I'm curious about the movies that inspired SNK games just like how King of Kickboxing inspired Fatal Fury. Considering Patrick Swayze was the model for Ryo, one of his movies must have inspired the first Art of Fighting but do you know any possible influence? I only watched Roadhouse which involves random fights in bars similar to the levels of the game. Any idea
