THE KING OF FIGHTERS '97 GLOBAL MATCH

It Is The Classic of all life, for me along with Kof 98 the best game of the whole saga. We Go by parts: The Original game: The Essence of Snk (the good) with some designs, ambience and gameplay unique. Scenarios full of mobile elements, people cheering, cameo of other characters, etc.. In short "Alive". Characters with plenty of charisma, a Chang who is afraid to approach, a Yamazaki who would sell to his mother, a Iori crazier than ever, a Kyo "really", ultimately "characters" are not a sad sketch. Sublime Gameplay, where the "tactic" premium, forcing us to use well each character and not just learn a long combo to hook the opponent and ready. As for the story what to say? , at this point everyone knows, but I will not delve in case I do spoiler xDDD, just say that of 10. Ultimately all the affection of the old Snk portrayed in a game. THE Port to PC: The Port is a simple emulator + ROM, which has been added interface to configure controls, volume, filters, etc.... and an online mode that this time finally adds the option to play the arcade mode while we wait for another opponent, which saves us looking at the screen of "looking for a game" boring. (It was time) First the port was a disaster, Frameskip, crashes, the language was changed alone, online horrendous, etc.... BUT have put the batteries and today everything is solved, being quite well. Also have added more options that were not in its launch, as Vsync (which fixes the pulls and also have put in Last Blade 2 of Step) 2 modalities of online (the input lag and rollback, better see the forum for more details) which improve quite and an extra gallery mode to re-view the finals on request from users. Conclusion: If You like fighting games or you have lived this saga in arcades I think it is forced purchase, also say that is not a very high price and if you have the coupon that they sent (valid you have the day 18 April) you get thrown out of price.

-Negative Points: * Online-I could Hardly prove it because there are hardly any people, but how little I could do it was unplayable. Unfortunately It made me remember what is suffering playing games that were on GFWL servers, such as Mortal Kombat Kollection and Virtua Tennis 4. An oscillating ping that does not fall from 90 ms, having peaks of 300 and 400 ms, makes it more a struggle with itself more than fighting against the rival. A disaster. * Bugs on the offline-Playing the story mode, there are language bugs (from nothing are changed, or history texts or menus, to the Portuguese:/). In Some moments it feels like it freezes the fight during the same, having worse sensations even that playing in the arcade long ago. * No Training Mode-As Some people have said, you do not have to practice. If or if you have to train a super replayable fighting game doing it in team mode/single player or online. -Positive Points: * Reasonable Price-130 Argentine pesos, which together with the discount coupon of 25% that gave us of Yapa SNK for having some title of KOF, remain in approximately 100 argentine pesos = 4.5 dollars; * Story Mode-The strongest point by far. Is the completion of what started in the KOF ' 95, called the "Saga of Orochi", with a depth of much of the teams involved in this tournament, showing the different outcomes that occur by defeating the final boss Orochi, giving a final point to the M Isma of which, in my opinion, is the best saga of all KOF. * Gameplay-Making A retrospective to the year 1997, this title shows a great improvement compared to its predecessor of the year 1996. It Is a great intermediate step with respect to the execution of combos a little more elaborate and fine, combining simple blows together with hooks and tricks/specials, giving some variants depending on the character and the skill of the player. This intermediate step ends up giving the definitive jump in the next installment, which makes it thankful that they are given this step necessary to give rise to the best game of the saga at gameplay level to my knowledge (KOF ' 98); In short, I do not recommend it like many others, unless the nostalgia and the great story that brings behind make you buy it and do not return it.
