Haven´t played 2001 yet, but it will sure get 1st place.

Since now it´s 98 and 2000!

If you can only get one, get '98.

If you're eventually planning to get the entire series, get '96 last. It's the worst one.

I'd recommend you get them in this order (assuming you're already getting 2001):
-98 first
-97
-95
-94
-2000
-99
-96 last

I say KOF2000, it has the best balance and gameplay of them all. The only bad thing is the strikers, but that's just to play without them.

Maybe KoF2K1 also known as KoF2001!!!

Til the day is coming out on AES, there isn´t another KoF like that "98 - Dreammatch never ends / Slugfest @time...
Top Animation, Gameplay, Sounds- and of course combo-and funfactor!!!
It´s so sad that KoF98 placed just 2nd behind "MotW"... :)

Go with '98. You get all of the best features of '94-'97, plus a few other extras (like hidden characters, special endings, and power-ups at the continue screen). '98 is also the best game for your money (I got a KOF '98 AES cart back in November for $81.00). The cover artwork is also very nice.

My opinion

kof98 probably the best all around king of fighters. It's the one you'll spend the most time with.

Kof2001 is amazing

95. How can you think it isn't?! Great story, great characters (it's got Billy Kane AND Eiji Kisaragi on he same team, with Iori to boot) and I like the engine. I still play this game.

Next, would have to be '98 or '99. '98 is just so well done, and '99 was cool because it began to move the series along. A lot of people dont like it for that reason, but the game is quite solid.
