I very briefly played KOF 2002 for the PS2 yesterday, and like the others it seems like a good port. The main thing with this port is that if you enable an option under the graphics menu you can turn on *true* 3D backgrounds. I didn't notice them at first and they blend in very well with the sprites, but they aren't as good as the ones in KOF '99 for the DC... they are more or less on par with the ones in KOF '98 for the DC in fact (Dream Match).
Gonna do some more playtesting later tonight, and I'll maybe post some more in-depth thoughts on the site.

Cool. Can't wait till this comes here so I can play it with King finally. I wouldn't bank on it coming out in the west due to Sony's bs policy on 2D stuff... however this does has proper 3D backgrounds so you never know. Having said that, I did hear that the only reason they let the KOF 2000/2001 pack through is because it was a value pack with two games. Let's keep our fingers crossed... Kaz

Hook us up with pics of Goenitz and Geese!
Where there any other new additions to the PS2 version aside from Shingo, Geese, Goenitz and King?

I guess i'm the only one here who didn't care for kof 2k2  I love the character selection but thats about it, i wish the gameplay was as smooth and balanced as kof 98.

Shingo is OVERPOWERD here!, do this: Highpunch->f+LowKick->shingo kick (high kick)... it does the same damage as a power geyser or orochinagi  here's also a neat 2k2 shingo combo, in corner (2stocks): jump-in HK, standingHP, hcb+HK(cancel the 1st hit), qcf-qcf+HP, then juggle b,d,df+HK (at random, the 3rd hit will appear... look at the enmy's life... ouch over all, SHINGO rulz in 2k2 king is a bit, blech in this one, she's a bit lame in here... and her HSDM is ok, i guess (surprise rose) dunno about geese and geonitz cuz the ps2 i played in still hasnt unlocked then, and i based my shingo and king from the DC version (which should be quite similar)

At the risk of perverting this thread:
I love 2k2, and like it a lot more than 98.
My reasons: -some characters get new animations + voices -some characters get new moves -the bgs are excellent (Rugals stage esp: wonder how that looks in 3d?) -the music rocks way more than 98s
Ok, so all those points are a matter of opinion, but I just felt like stating them anyway ;D
