Anyone play Mingnon's sister yet? She looks pretty cool ;D I haven't been interested in trying the new characters, honestly i'm not even quite sure who Mingon is. So, even though i kinda like this game i've pretty much given up on after loosing all my competition. Now that i've learned a some long combo's all of my friends refuse to play the game. Considering the blatant unbalance of the characters i'm not supprised they think it's so cheap ;D

So far (after a few hours play and much unlocking) I am really enoying the game. It is pretty damn cheap and unbalanced, but as a fun game with some cool extras thrown in (which makes single player a bit longer lasting), you can't go wrong. It's easier to get non SNK fans to play this one too, so if you can accept it for what it is then it's great. It's definitely better than the first Max Impact anyway (although I must admit I liked that too). One lame thing however - all the secret characters appear to be clones. For instance, Hattori Hanzo is pretty much a clone of Nagase (who is kinda cool btw... she looks nice at least ). Very lazy, but still good to have the extra characters in there I suppose. This may make some of you happy, but in the end credits it would appear that Soiree is dead... you see his ghost walk past Alba, and when he disappears Alba punches the wall. I haven't completed the game with either Alba or Soiree however so I don't know exactly... Gonna put some more time into the game anyways! Kaz

lol! Nagase does look a little better than Falcoon though Been playing more and pulling out some nice combos... I suppose that shows just how easy it is when a player of my general "ability" can pull out some really flashy shit. Got a fair few characters unlocked now too - I'm up to Lily Kane, think there's maybe another five after that. The challenge mode is pretty cool too as it keeps the one player experience fresh for a bit longer, I'm having fun going through all the different missions as well as pounding the living crap out of Metal Slug... Think Mignon's sister is the next character to be unlocked for me... Kaz

Got Ninon enabled and I am really liking her character so far, although I suppose some people might find her "Loli-Goth" style a bit questionable. Her alternate outfits look superb from what I have seen so far though, especially this one: Thanks to Lyte Edge at neo-geo.com for that pic. Gonna have a blast with her later, at the moment I'm practicing shit with Terry and Mr Karate. This look familar btw? Pic 1Compared to this: Pic 2Vaguely similar. Anyone know how old she is supposed to be though? She looks like a kid in that pic, but she seems older in game. Kaz

Hehe God dammit - got to the last two missions on easy challenge and I just can't do them right now. One of them you have to perform 5 sabaki's (parry's) in a row and it seems impossible with my reaction times, and in the last you have to beat Alba within 60 seconds... sounds ok but he has 200% health, and infinite power gauge and single hits do him no damage so you have to combo him. I think I can beat Alba if I concentrate properly, but the 5 parry's in a row...? Ergh! Any tips? ;D Kaz

I have a rip of every track in the game - I'll dig through them and find the ones you need I finally went back and finished all the easy missions - god the last two on level 10 are a bitch, especially the "sabaki 5 attacks in a row"!!! Anyways, was well worth it because I got the Neo Geo Land stage enabled - not the Esaka one from the first game, but the new one that has music that's basically a remixed version of the Neo Geo jingle... very cool indeed! If you pick the 2nd version of the stage though, it actually plays the original Neo Geo version of your chosen characters theme tune, which is a really nice touch! ;D Kaz

I want to love this game so bad, but I fear it will fall short in many areas....

I like this game better than the 1st one for its fun and coolness. Not to mention some
surprise characters with the likes of Fio from Metal Slug and Richard from Fatal Fury.
I am also grateful that some of the additional costumes are those of background
characters and those who are not in the game. I am very thankful for the music because
it has been ages since I have heard classic game music since KOF 98.
please can you link some music off King of Fighters MI 2 kazuya? thanks

I got this a few days ago and I'm starting to think that this 3D KOF can become a respectable series at its own right ;D Although some hidden characters are a bit of a clone of a main character (like Hattori Hanzo as a clone of Nagase and Lily Kane a clone of Billy, both with a few altered moves.) or a variation of the character (Classic Kyo and Garou version of Terry, Wild Wolf), the ones that are not rocks! You have Mignon's sister (who is 1,00,000x better than that annoyingly cutesy and out-of-place Mignon), Armor Ralf (kinda like a Metal Zangief-type character), Mr.Karate(!! Ryo using Takuma's moves and more!!) and Nightmare Geese (OMFG!!).
The graphics are surprisingly good, especially considering that SNK mostly did 2D games 95% of the time. The most of the single-player modes are genuinely fun and although slghtly unbalanced, they've at least toned down some of hte annoying moves (Alba's projectile, though seemingly modified, is actually easier to avoid now).
Totally awesome!
