Hello guys I just wanted your opinions on which World Heroes game is best?I never played WHP so I'm going to say WH 2 because I like the one on one and the Death Matches.I didn't like jet much because they took out the Death Matches and I didn't really like the 1 vs 3 matches.

I really enjoyed WH1 and still consider it one of my favorite SNK fighting games.

Why? Bear in mind that this came out roughly around the same time as SFII back in the day. It offered a similar, yet different in some ways, experience compared to SFII. I was never a fan of Mortal Kombat, so when the SFII machine at the arcade was being played, it was fun to play some WH1 on the Neo MVS machine.

The floaty double jumps and rapid-fire punches really appeal to me and the death match mode was a great addition.

WH2 definately

WH2 Jet would have been tops, had they not taken out the death match.

I haven't played Perfect since it was first released, but I remember being really disappointed in it (that's probably why they didn't call it WH3)

I enjoyed the World Heroes Jet presentation style, big sprites, colorful game, tough AI, cool setup, no death match is okay with me, because frankly I had gotten burned out on the idea after WH2. The semi-tournament style in WH2J is fresh, modernized, and even a bit innovative for the times and the other fighting games being released.

It certainly kicked Mortal Kombat's ass. Street Fighter was probably a bit ahead of WH2J, but not by much, as WH2J definately topped SF 2 World Warriors and SF 2 Champion Edition. I loved World Heroes for the innovation and large colorful characters and actually the wide variety of characters was a nice addition to a great package. World Heroes Perfect let me down quite a bit. I'd say World Heroes 2 Jet was the pinnacle of World Heroes greatness, and after WH Perfect was unable to keep pace in new ideas and updating the character roster and presentation style, ADK made the right decision to abandon the franchise.

Heresy!

This poll is full of foul lies and deceit.

The World Heroes games were secretly developed by Capcom in order to discredit the glory of our Neo.

This thread is blasphemy of the highest order.

You must all play three hours of Samurai Spirits 2 to atone for participating in this hateful poll.

My vote goes to World Heroes 2, most balanced characters i thought. Mudman, Cap'n Kidd, Rasputin, Fuuma, etc. all wonderful

WH1's gameplay is better than jet though Jet has more characters.

I'd have to say that WH2J is my favorite in the series. Although I must admit that I thought the characters were lame at first. After a while it just kinda grew on me.

I am definately all about perfect. It is still kinda lame, but its fighting is much refined, and having the large character selection is always cool. The backgrounds in perfect are decent, and the music isn't too shabby. The only think I miss is the death-matches.
