MotW is a solid non-KoF SNK fighter, but even though it's pretty it doesn't hold up especially compared to 98 or 02, but I really value big rosters and team battles. Even still though as far as their smaller games went I like Last Blade more overall.

Uh, thanks?

I have no idea why americans felate this but won't go near KoF. I have a feeling it's because of aggressive Sega Dreamcast marketing but KoF98 and 2002 came out on Dreamcast too so even that makes no sense.

Well I sorta have a problem with the roster. Its not that large and some of the characters are lame imo. I actually have the android version which I got for like 3 bucks and you can do supers with just taps and swipes which makes it fun.

It's much more accessible. Small roster so not a ton of characters to learn and all the inputs are simple, with most supers just being two quarter circles and an attack. But it does still have some depth so it's a great beginner's fighting game.

It's one of the best, but the character roster is nowhere near as great as KOF or even the Real Bout Fatal Fury games.

go back to sfv

>tfw Garou 2 was 70% done before SNK went bankrupt
>spent years wanting to do it but barely scraping by on KOF
>designer on Garou is now SNK producer, says he has to make Garou 2 before he dies
The impressive thing about Garou is how good it is without multiple revisions, unilke Third Strike, Vampire Savior, KOF 98, etc. If we had gotten a sequel in 2001 it would have been the best fighting game ever.

He's probably talking about feint cancels, which cost nothing to do. Imagine shoryu FADC backdash costing no meter. Just Defend giving you life back is dumb as hell, too. Still a great game despite these setbacks.

What's a good place to find neo geo roms? I only find these weird files that have a lot of .rom files in them.

ok yeah that's cancer, didn't know this was in the game

>>5959931

i was looking for this pic, thanks for posting it

>>5960829
sure, have another. I'm glad you like my CRT.

That it could have been that good? Compare SF2 to Super Turbo, New Generation to Third Strike, KOF 94 to 98. Why couldn't Garou offer the same level of improvent with a sequel or two?

>>5960313
I love all things KoF but Garou holds a special place considering my friends and I spent almost every other day playing it for like 4 years

>>5961453
Ohh, it would be good certainly, just not the best fighting game ever.

>>5960734
The nice thing about Garou that counterbalances the utterly stupid things in the game is that normals do chunky bigboy damage so you can still win playing good spacing and staying unpredictable. And I'd be lying if I said the stupid shit like feint cancels and feint links didn't add their own layer of enjoyment just playing around with them.

>>5959930
I'm still angry the sequel never materialized. Playing with Freeman is a blast tho-
>>5960395
Hey, if Daraku Tenshi got a remaster after years, who says Garou won't?

>>5960395
The only way Garou 2 would work is if they pulled a Megaman 9. I have a hard time imagining SNK doing something like that in this day and age, where they seem to be hard at distancing themselves from the "reuse assets for an honest-to-god full decade" school of development.

I've said this before in Garou threads but I know a guy who plays Tizoc and uses his feints like he's calling out his attacks. Shit is mad entertaining
