man where the hell have you been
what do you mean?

wow, interesting point there... i set it on level 1 just to go thru on unlocking everyone.. and yeah, it was kinda hard.. im gonna try to set it to level 7 now
Is it me or does it seem to have random long load times? Seriously, it seems that you can get stuck staring at the end of a character's win animation for around 10 seconds before the screen goes black, and then have to wait another 5 seconds before it comes back up with the new character loaded. It seems that there's a 25% chance of it happening. Sometimes it gets really annoying.
When it doesn't get stuck like that, it loads in about 2 seconds, so the transition is barely noticeable if it even is at all.
As for the difficulty level issue, tonight I fired it up on level 6, and got my ass handed to me. I didn't get past the first match. Then I dropped the level down to 5 and started again, and got all the way through to Rugal without too much trouble. Rugal is a tough nut though...
okay, i tried Level 7 and then back to Level 1... i think tarma is on to something here... it's prolly just my imagination as well, but seemingly "Level 7" and "1" got switched by accident...
EDIT:
here's an interesting theory, the neo games go up to LEVEL 8, but UM goes only up to LEVEL7, and as noticed, pressing next from 7 goes back to 1.... there could be a 'mix-up' that level 1 = Level-8
or maybe 7 = 1, 1 = 7, mixup
Weird. With the copy i have it's definitely easier to get through to rugal on level 7 than level 1... on either level Rugal is nuts hard to beat...
Wait.
You have a point.
Level 1 is nuts.
Level 2 is no joke either.
I think we should rank the difficulty levels.
Also, anyone beaten challenge #9???

I made an How To Play video for The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match.
I tried to simplify as much as possible
so the majority of the people should be able to understand it.
Who is unlockable in this game?
EX characters are already unlocked. The only ones to unlock are the Orochi versions of Iori and Leona, Orochi himself and Goenitz.
I don't like it, feels just like another rehash of Dream match 99' to me.
Graphics i've seen years before.
Music i've heard years before.
And no notable gameplay improvements IMO.
Good that I still own the original '98 on NGH.
That man speaks the truth.
The best thing Ultimate Match has, is the "Neo Geo Mode".
Best thing that 98UM has is the ability to make Neo "purists" get pissy that there's a version of their "priceless treasure" with more content for less money.
