The Second SNK Fighting Game Series to Arrive for PS2
It's about time that this collection comes to the US. This has the first 4 Fatal Fury games (the Real Bout Fatal Fury games are in Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 2 which is currently out only in Japan).
Like the Art of Fighting Anthology, these 4 games are 100% versions of the arcade games. However for the first Fatal Fury game, the issue of controls still comes up. FF 2 improves on this, with FF Special being the best game in the collection. FF 3 is the best looking game, but the new multi-line system is a little confusing at first. It's still a fun game needlesstosay
This collection will keep you playing as it's tough even on Easy mode. My main issue is the lack of a real 2 player vs mode like they have in the Art of Fighting series. 2 people can play, but the victor can't pick someone else for the next match.
Despite the shortfalls, this is a solid collection of old school fighting games. Hopefully Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 2 & the upcoming Japanese release of World Heroes Gorgeous will make it to North American soon.
First half of a great fighting series
If anyone is a fan of SNK, than they remember Fatal Fury from way back when. Either having played it in the arcades, or playing the sometimes watered down (although still fun) ports on the old consoles like the Genesis or Super Nintendo. Fatal Fury Battle Archives Volume 1 brings the first 4 games from the Fatal Fury series to the Playstation 2, faithfully ported from the original arcade versions respectively on each title.
You have Fatal Fury, Fatal Fury 2, Fatal Fury Special, and Fatal Fury 3. this series could be considered, like Art of Fighting, a precursor to the King of Fighters series, as it features a lot of regulars in the series, including faces like Mai Shirunai, Andy and Terry Bogard, Geese, and plenty of others. One cool thing about the series, not seen in hardly any other fighting games is the ability to jump back and forth between foregrounds and backgrounds, adding another plane to fight on.
Other than that, Fatal Fury offers all the fun 2D style fighting you can find in games like Street Fighter, Samurai Shodown, and others. It's fun, its old school, and its always to be remembered.
It's a shame though that SNK did not add any new features to this collection. You have the ability to color edit characters, and also adjust difficulties, but that's about it. Pretty bare bones in presentation.
If you're a fan of old school fighting and SNK, this is a title not to be missed.
Old school SNK fun!
Ah, these games are old gems. This is the first time that a few of them have been made available in the U.S. on a home system besides the Neo-Geo.
Anyone getting in to this game should know right off the bat that this is pretty old school. The original Fatal Fury was released around the same time as SFII, so you will certainly notice it's age. The gameplay does not feel very modern in the first three games (you can barely even combo at all in the FF1), but then again, why would anyone buy a classic game compilation trying to expect modern gameplay?
If you're an old school SNKer then heck, you probably have this game already. If you don't get it ASAP. The games are recreated faithfully, the music is still great (even today) and, most importantly, all of these games are fun.
