![]() ![]() You’ve got single character play, with the same above modes. You’ve got the classic Arcade style three-person team play, either in tournament, versus another player, or versus the CPU for one match. That said, the game modes more than make up for that. So, okay, KOF98UM doesn’t come with a story build in, as it’s a “Dream Match” title, and as such represents more the idea of getting a bunch of characters together and letting them beat the crap out of each other. Assuming it comes to the US with the exact same features it has on-board in the import version, any fan of fighting games NEEDS to own this, especially considering the low, low price tag of twenty dollars (for the US release, as of this point, anyway… importing it costs… a whole lot more, shall we say, but the pain, it is worth it). ![]() King of Fighters ’98 Ultimate Match is a strong reinvention of the original decade-old title, featuring a whopping sixty-four characters (IE pretty much everyone from KOF ’94-97 and a bunch of alternate versions of characters), new moves for old favorites, and a ton of stuff to do. So leave it to SNK to re-release the game and make it BETTER. In short, it’s generally considered one of the best KOF titles ever, and could well be considered one of the best fighting games ever, period. It’s also a “Dream Match” title, meaning there are a metric ton of characters in it, for those who love their variety. This is not to say that the games post-98 are bad, however, so much as to note how fantastic a product ’98 was from ’94 to ’97, SNK had been experimenting with different styles of visual and gameplay elements, trying to find styles that clicked, and by the time ’98 came around, it pretty much set the gameplay tone for the next several games in the series until ’03 came along, as most of the later games are derived in large part from the strides made in the first few games.
