To put Kensou as a hero..They would have to change his costume..he looks like a dork.

I wish the Ikari team were given a starring role (Ralf Jones most especially). Not the ghey Bao or Kensou. <img src="graemlins/help.gif" border="0" alt="[Help]" />

I think it'd be better if they had their own game to show how much of boss pimps they are

Yes, I think Terry would be a good hero. Also, I think Geese should be the main villain. If it were my way, this would be so heh. Plus there is no way in hell Kyo could come close to Geese. Atleaset Terry tries. (No Terry cant beat Geese...)

Nope, Terry is the hero of Fatal Fury and that's the way it should remain.

How contradictory these 2 statements are. In the Fatal Fury storyline Geese is dead. He died once, he only survived a previous fall, he did not resurrect. Yet he appears in KoF 2000 I believe. The 2 universes were closely tied until KoF '97 after that they seperated.

I believe KoF was created to give the fans what they wanted. Art of Fighting meets Fatal Fury whilst adding a series of new characters.

Hi folks I am new to the forum. First off, off the bat I am a huge Terry Bogard fan.

Now as to the topic should Terry be the hero of KOF, I hate to say this but I think he should not.
It would not look right if Terry was the lead in both Fatal Fury and KOF. Though while agree with this, I dont agree with other things. That is even though Terry is the not the main character of KOF does not mean that he should be degraded and jobbed and always look weak and inferior next to Kyo...I cant tolerate that.

While speaking of Kyo why does it always seems that he can beat ANYBODY in the entire SNK universe which is also not cool with me. As wellKyo gets the most attention out of everybody. It's always Kyo this and Kyo that...why bother calling the game King of fighters when it should be called Kyo Kusanagi's life.

Also someone on this forum stated that Terry has had enough of the spotlight and that he should let someone else have a turn? well what about Kyo? he has been in the spotlight from 94-98. Even though he wasn't the main character for two KOF games, he got the main character status back in the new KOF game plus he was the lead in both SNK vs Capcoms games and in the third I am sure. Really who should let some else have a chance?

Anyways I feel Terry should not be disrespected always losing and looking weak to Kyo as well as Iori and K'

I agree with a lot of this post, but I think Fatal Fury should be given to Rock Howard now and Kof should be given to terry for a year or two b4 making a new hero.

I agree on this man, Terry is my favorite character and I hate to see him lose agaist other fighters in such stupid ways. He is one of the strongest characters in KOF. About him being the main character, that I see it very hard due to his personality. He is the kind of hero that doesn't need to be the main character to be the best. But they need to improve his fighting, skills now that he is training ROCK to make him one of the main characters

Terry give way to Rock, NNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I mean the T-man was also my boy , but he has only been my boy for 8 years odd, and I am only 22 , come on m8, how about another 22 years when I am 44, at least until my passion for T, I starting to die down a bit, and respect to Terry for getting KOF, but a bit more than a year, maybe until KOF 2010 , which the new title could be THE TURN OF THE DECADE FOR THE NEW MILLIEIUM OR THE BEGINNING OF THE CENTURY FOR THE LONEWOLVES, or something like that

Terry, as I stated before, should be on the next 2002 marquee. Or better, a MotW type marquee with Rock and a shadow of Terry. Too bad they didn't add fighters from MotW. Some of them are just awesome and they could resurect some team.

I am glad you guys are supporters of Terry and you understand what I am getting at.

Orochi Flava stated that Terry should be the hero in KOF for awhile while Rock gets Fatal Fury. Well to be honest I have no comment on that but I definatley think that in SNKvsCAPCOM 3, Terry should be the lead in the game because I feel that he is Ryu's true rival. Fatal Fury and Terry were created to rival Ryu and Steetfighter(before KOF ofcourse)Terry and Ryu have more in common than Ryu and Kyo.

Though seriously guys I doubt that any of this will happen. In SvC 3 I am pretty sure that Kyo will be the lead and will keep continuing to be the lead in KOF until it ends.

I am also pretty sure Terry will never be a lead in anything anymore which sucks because he started SNK and KOF.

It makes me so :mad: <img src="graemlins/envy.gif" border="0" alt="[Envy]" /> <img src="graemlins/mad2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mad 2]" /> <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[Crying]" /> :( <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" />

I gotta go with Kyo on this one
Terry is cool and all but he gave up his hero status when he picked up Rock
I would be happy if Terry killed K or K9999 though

Well, first off, I don't think Terry should be the KOF hero either, but he really shouldn't just get chumped. SNK made it seem that if you don't have fire, you can't win, and that's not right. In fact, I actually appreciated KOF more when I first played '94 and saw that Terry wasn't the main character. It showed that there were other people in the world than the Fatal Fury/Art of Fighting characters. But come on! I think he could take Kyo/Iori/K'/K'9999.

Secondly, as for the whole Mark of the Wolves thing, Terry's still the hero. If you guys will recall, didn't Rock leave with Kain? Normally, a games ending is kinda up in the air, but it happened in both Terry and Rock's endings, so it's 99% fact. Any thoughts/opinions on this revelation guys?

Kyo should definitely take a backseat to Terry in Capcom vs Snk....Terry and Ryu were the original company rivals... I remember a magazine article was even done on the subject a few years back...(I forgot the name of the magazine.)

Yeah, I remember seeing that, too. It was Animerica, if memory serves me correctly... In it, it had them as a "draw".

You know I agree with both Overkill Geyser and Orochi Flava.

What O-geyser said is true an makes me angry with the fact that NOW in KOF if you do not have crimson flames or orochi and nests powers than you are not good enough to be the best and to me that royally sucks.

Terry wasn't born with "POWERS" and he wasnt given powers like 'K. He busted his ass in the mean streets of Southtown learning the techniques such as the power wave and my screen name the power geyser.

Also correct me if I am wrong but the only reason I feel that KOF was a success is due to the fact that Terry and the Fatal Fury characters and Ryo and the Art of Fighting characters are in it. If they were not, I think KOF would not be as popular and Kyo sure as hell would no be enjoying the status that he does....well thats my opinion.

Y'know, P-Geyser, you're right! And as far as the whole "flame" thing, Kyo and Iori are friggin' mutants! They didn't train to get their powers! And, you know, if Terry and the rest of those fighters trained to get their abilities, what's up with that slacker, Shingo?

I'm not too wild about that "Born with Powers" thing either...look at how garbage Kyo is when he loses his "Flames." He's turned to the Dark Side instead of training harder..what a slacker...lol. Terry just worked hard at it (and just put back a few beers)and has worked out his differences with his past...you have to respect a guy who will raise his enemy's son! Also, whats up with Joe looking bad like that? How can he be the kickboxing champion when he is always portrayed so weak? To the K' flame series...how about you guys train for your powers, instead of bragging or crying about being born/given or losing your powers... From the Looks of MOTW though, Terry is the man again, and very well respected. KOF BELONGS to TERRY...everyone that I know that started playing KOF (in 94) started cause they loved that Terry was in it!

Doesn't being born with your powers make you diffrent then everybody else??? So wouldn't you be upset if you lost it,While every other tom, dick, and mary got flame powers cause they quite having a life to train to get it, Terry is cool and all but as the hero of KoF i think not. He has Fatal Fury to fall back on before he's replaced by Rock(who was kinda quick to toss Terry to the curb to find hid mom don't ya think?)
