It's funny because EGM reviewed Midway classics in the same issue, and never do they mention archaic graphics or sound. Instead the grizzled editors chime in about superlative gameplay compared to today, but when they review KOF it's OHH, it's so ugly. The graphics are horrible, especially 2001.
I guess it's not about the gameplay anymore...
Also, I think it's about the year numbers after King of Fighters which the editors (except Sushi-X), which of course are 2000 and 2001 and just expect it to be something graphically of that era.Kevin Paul said:Play gave the compilation a B+, which is the best review so far.

Capcom may have refined tag-team fighting with Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Holy crap, I miss Treasure...Kevin Paul said:I'll give Sushi-X credit he at least looked at the game objectively. All the other reviewers didn't, instead they griped about graphics. Hmm... I guess that's why in their minds Soul Calibur 2 is the greatest fighter ever (not saying the game isn't great but not the greatest).
And granted this compilation is $39.99, but at least it's two games for 40 bucks.
With that kind of press from one of the more mainstream video game magazines, it's any wonder why SNK never got the support it deserved (but the same can be applied to 2D fighters, Treasure, shooters, etc).
As of now, I don't think so, but might come out in the future. Ben Herman previously talked about SNK Playmore going to Europe, but never said when.SilverAngel said:does anyone know if its coming out in europe?
Even worse anyone want to type up the crap that was said about it in EGM?rebellion1 said:Anyone want to type up what them schmucks at playstation magazine said?

Their reviews were:
5.0 | 5.5 | 7.5
Overall not bad, but they say how old the Neo hardware is and hold IT accountable for bad games... crap.
I think even you are selling it too short. Horrid graphics, music that reeks... you can maybe say those things about 2001, but 2000 (the last full-SNK KOF) has very good graphics and in my opinion one of the best soundtracks of the series. The Ikari team, Ryuko no Ken team, K's team... those are great themes... It's unfair that you lump them in with the techno-noise of '01.Kevin Paul said:I can't understand why the KOF compilation couldn't at least get 7s. Granted the graphics were horrid even when they were originally released, the music reeks and the only replayability is in versus, but the gameplay is still leaps and bounds better than most 3D games./B]
