first thing's first. i am new here. i've loved fighting games and neogeo goodness for as long as i can remember, and am amazed to find a site like this. the reviews are grand, though i'm curious as to what you make of kof2003? i personally think its one of the best in the series, second only to '98. though that is my humble opinion, mind.
as for the thread, i remember playing in poland of all places, a game called "franco's crazy revenge" on the amiga. such a bad experience almost made me want to take life. has anyone else heard of it?
as for the music debate i'd probaby say kof'95 had the best score. since its the only fighting game soundtrack where the composers have really put some thought into the actual instrumentation of the pieces in order to enhance the backgrouds in general. something that becomes apparent when you think about the sound of the lone cello in the art of fighting teams' stage and the upbeat funk on kyo's background.
after that would come the soundtrack to the last blade games for pretty much the same reason.
as for capcom's music. for me its always been a bit boring and samey by comparison. as in virtually every game i've played it just boils down to small collection of catchy melodies done with a limited range of sounds. in other words game music being made in exactly the same way as it has done since the 80's.
