If they don't change the stage, the music and some of the voices, it's useless to buy it

What I really want is for SNKP to release some *arranged* soundtracks again. That is one of the main things that I think is lacking from the ports, but they do also need to add some good bonus features too (that you can unlock). It doesn't have to be anything exceptional, but just putting in some artwork of the website (like in SvC) doesn't really cut it for me.

True - but the PS2 versions look better imho... better colours as the DC versions had kind of a washed out look. It's not enough to make you want to buy the PS2 version if you already have it for the DC, but if you have neither I'd probably recommend the PS2 version. We still need arranged soundtracks...  Kaz

5 new characters for the PS2 version include: King, Shingo, Goenitz, Geese, and Bosou Iori Source- gameonline.jp/news/2004/01/16003.htmlHehe, i guess snkp decided "Who needs to bring somebody new or exciting when we can just rip Goenitz, Geese, & Bosou Iori from the ps2 port of SvC plus King & Shingo from the DC version or kof2k2"  Either way, the more the merrier i suppose.

Thats good news...I always thought that kof 2k2 was the most balanced (and thus boring  ) kof's, but with Goenitz and Geese this should be a great port.
