KOF2001 is awesome on roster and movesets, Robah is king on trap corner back hand fist to uppercut, great combo or just back hand to DSM uppercut. Either way 2001 is great, some stages are meh but it plays so great...

98 for me, but I do love the DC version a lot too (Dream Match 99). 95 is a very close second.

You wanted it, you got it. The ultimate KOF poll. My vote goes to 96.
Where is KOF14 on the list?
I would have to agree, 96 is my favourite (has Geese, Krauser, Mr. Big).

it's sad to see that 97 only got one vote. it's my favourite. but seeing that 96 has a high vote count automatically makes me feel a lot better.

That was my vote. I don't have 96 or 98 yet so out of the ones i own, i choose 97. 95 comes as a close second.

I played the crap out of the dc ports of kof 98-02 before I started playing on kaillera. Not sure how they stack up cause its been so long but endless hours of practice on the dc back then. Especially 2k

99 DM and 99Evo are awesome, I like the others too but the 480i kinda kills the vibe. 2K1 has a bunch of extra stages through the years, so awesome. Wish they'd release them ultimate KOFs with all them stages from the previous KOFs, it's only fair!

I know 98 will win but my vote went to 95. I just love the artwork and the stages feel more special. It also has a special place in my heart because it was my first kof when I bought it on the Saturn many years ago when it came out with the rom cart.

98 really doesn't do anything much for me. 2k2 #1, '95 and 11 tied for #2.

95 for me. Still the cart I fire up most often. Second would probably be 2k1

most of the kof games are great on the mvs, does have some dope tracks plus Iori was introduced. But i prefer my kof games with running over dash. thats the only thing that kills the earlier games for me from being better

its a fun game but ive had way too much fun with the other in person and on kaillera/mame/fightcade over the years. If the netcode was better on kof xiii maybe it wouldve gotten more love

Damn, no love for XIII

There is love for XIII...but there's more love for other KOFs.

XIII could have been perfect f it had the fighting engine from XII with some fine tuning...the critical counters should be refined...also AOF2 Geese as the boss and a netcode with the caliber of Capcom games and you'd have perhaps the greatest swansong to 2D pixel art fighting games. Between XII & XIII lies greatness but somehow neither of the two achieved it individually...
