The King of Fighters 99

A certain chic to the look of KoF 99 as the new anime techniques cross over into the gaming world to create a very snazzy looking array of pugilists with a distinct Akiba flavour. The backgrounds too ooze atmosphere as the variable weather techniques feel like a brooding end to a Kurosawa classic. Introduced the ability to call in a striker to launch an attack or perhaps just provide some well needed energy. A truly vast range of 32 characters - and thats just the starting line up.
