I don't play Kof99 very well to, but it's my least favorite Kof(I only played KoF2K a couple of times in the arcade).

I love kof 99 ,I think the mid scenes are cool too and the fact if you get a high enough score you get to fight either iori or kyo at the end.

The Most i chould pull off in KOF 99' is with Kyo and thats a 13 hit and yes its not the best kof but it's not the most shittyist
i think 95' sucked the last boss is kool and the ending are good but when do people get fighting games for the storyline (thats only RPGS and ACtion/Adventure) <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

I still like to play KOF99 every now and then. I don't think it's lame and they're isn't much combos involved. I like '98 and '00 the most. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

kof 99 may not be the best kof in terms of combos but its certainly one of the most stylish.cool fighters like k',maxima and jhun are first introduced in 99'.iori's new super and kyo's new outfit were also cool.

the thing i don't like about 99' is the missing combos from kof 98.mary can't connect her dynamite swing from a stand C->f+a.there are other fighters who also have missing combos.athena also don't have that throw command.another issue i have with 99' is the lag during supers.there sre some supers which take quite some time to come out unlike in 98'.which makes it impossible to combo.

i'm glad that in 2000',all those issues were tweaked and hopefully in kof 2001.

Say what you will about the gameplay, but KOF99 is the best looking of the series, hands down.

First off, let me clarify so we're all on the same page: I am judging the Original Neo homecart version of KOF99. No 3D BGs for me.

I hear you, but the colors, to me, look their absolute best in '99. Vibrant, more realistic and eye-poppingly good. The characters look their best. Animation is great. KOF00 would have been just as good if SNK had actually finished it.

AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE BACKGROUNDS!!!!!

The Downpour BG is just about the best 2D fighting game BG of all time. The 'Airport' stage also looks amazing.

All admit that the intro and select screens are pretty weak, but besides them, '99 just looks awesome.

well i don't know how 99 looks on home cart but in MVS i think 98 has overall best presentation, even tough i do prefer the character portraits better on the 99 version

so 99 is not as bad better than 2000 but not than 98 or just a tie between them both (in presentation only cause in GP we all know who's king) <IMG SRC="smilies/smirk.gif" border="0">

just wish 99 had an intro and song as catchy as 98

You and me both!

98 is definitely the best KOF overall.

no K.O.F. ever sucks, it might be not that appealing like other years but hey it's K.O.F. and K.O.F. is just too H.O.T. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

K.O.F. '98 is definetively the best one for me tough

the best background for me is the DC version of kof 99.

i've heard so many good things about kof 2001's awesome backgrounds.

I like KOF 99 personally, but that's probably because I'm not a combo fanatic. I can't do anything more than Clark's Gatling attack into his napalm stretch.

But the music is about on par with 96 (best in the series). Look at K's music, or the Ikari's, or Kyo's (both Shin and the clones), or... KRIZALID!

The backgrounds are also just awesome. Either the airport, or the downpour (I agree on it being one of the best ever), but Krizalid's stage just rocked me. You can't compare that level of intensity to any other KOF boss stage. Not even Orochi's, which was still pretty damn cool.

And yes, I thought Krizalid was an awesome boss. You may lynch me now. Probably the only boss whom I felt completely overwhelmed by.

YEAH, YOU ARE RIGHT!

KOF 99 IS HORRID, I FELT EXTREMELY DISSAPOINTED WITH IT, KOF99 SUCKS!

IT SURE LOOKS AMAZING BUT THE GAMEPLAY SUCKS!!!

THE BEST KOF´s ARE 95 AND 97!

KOF 98 IS GOOD BUT ONLY A LITTLE BIT BETTER THAN 97, NOT ENOUGH TO DESERVE BEING 98 BUT 97 1/2...

KOF 2000 IS HORRIBLE AS WELL <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">
