"While Capcom created multiple famous fighting franchises, most other companies only dipped their toes into the water; even Midway stuck with Mortal Kombat as its sole fighting franchise until the release of War Gods, which was essentially Mortal Kombat 4 with a different coat of paint. With multiple sequels and multiple franchises released in such a short span of time, no other company could seem to match Capcom's output — save for one. That company was Shin Nihon Kikaku, better known to the world as SNK, and their rivalry with Capcom created constant innovation and competition in the genre.
Some say that the genre reached its peak in 1999 with the arcade release of Street Fighter III: Third Strike. However, I beg to differ. I believe the peak happened elsewhere that very same year, and I believe that SNK finally achieved its goals and made a game that was more fun to play than any Street Fighter title before or since. That game was the final entry into...
“As the latest mainline entry in the Fatal Fury series, GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES remains a stellar 2D fighter so let's enter the ring.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
One of the few Dreamcast games I bought. I made sure to snatch it up when I noticed it was on the Switch. I don't know what made this game resonate with me but I love it. I barely touch 2D fighters anymore unless it's to boot this gem up.
Well, my expectations have been shattered (finally). King of Fighters XV has finally released information about their upcoming Season Pass 1. Team Garou consisting of Garou: Mark of the Wolves alum Rock Howard, B.Jenet and Gato will be released March 2022. Team South Town consists of Geese Howard, Billy Kane and Ryuji Yamazaki will be available May 2022.
that sad not that your looking forward to the game
but the fact they're talking about the season pass
and the game not even out yet smh
Yea, I hear ya', but that's par for the course for fighting games. If they sold gangbusters this might not be as prevalent, but this isn't anything new since the Xbox 360/PS3 generation. Plus, I don't mind giving them a few extra dollars to support them.
Dean Shimabukuro (Sr. Marketing Program Manager) - The August Games with Gold lineup is here. On the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, return to an apocalyptic Earth in Darksiders III, and embark on an epic adventure in Yooka-Laylee. And for our classic lineup via Backward Compatibility, discover the hidden truths of Lost Planet 3, and become the ultimate fighter in Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Not too bad. Lost Planet is a series Id like to see get a reboot. And i have not played Mark of the Wolves since the DC. Great fighter though.
First month in a long time that GWG is better than PS+ imo. I'm sure Sony will step it up next month and hopefully Microsoft does too.
Not too bad but what ever comes out I never get the time to complete any of them. I more look forward to the back compat as they are for keeps.
Darksiders 3 has been on PS+ before. But I'm going to give this month to Xbox.. just barely. Still a weak month from both companies, but probably the best Xbox lineup in a long time.
Who used to say that?!?! I could easily google it but noooo….. Did Triple H used to say that? The Miz?
The hitman hart! Sure did 😂🤣 I’m so lame cause that was my favorite wrestler as a kid!
Yeah he had some of the funniest wresting quotes. So memorable. I miss the 1990's when wresting was fun to watch
The real crime is how far SNK has fallen and a sequel to this game was half way done but never completed and released.
I do remember finding this the most fun of all the SNK roms years ago. I'm not sure I played this one on consoles or in arcades or wherever it originally released. It is a fun game with great movesets for the characters.
B. Jenet.
That is all.
R.I.P
Fatal Fury
Art of Fighting
Samurai Shodown
Last Blade
Ninja Masters
and so many other awesome game series by SNK of the nineties :(
Really wish I never sold my AES homecart. Ah well, still got the MVS version in my cab. Such a classic.
