Hope the music isn't complete crap either. The old KOF and SNK games had the best scores ever.

You can't compare 2001 to anything, you can't even mention 2001 on any debate, if you are going to compare transition, compare 2000 to XI, since 2001 and 2002 were made by the whack job eolith, and 2003 is made by SNK Playmore but it was on the standards of Eolith.

People tend to forget that SNK was defunct, and anyone who wished to make games was welcome to it, heck, Yuki (Samurai Zero) mever made a fighting game before, Evoga (rage of the Dragons) was a mexican company that got broke after it, any game from that time shouldn't even be considered as SNK material.

But I agree on the score thing.

Indeed having your "family jewels" handed to strangers is a part of the arcade gaming, it's pretty much what drives people to get better, the whole competition thing.

Heck, the only reason I know how to play every single 2d fighter out there is because I was tired of having my ass handed every time I was at the arcade, It's annoying, but exciting as well, It's cool when you do kick some ass and people look up on you.

Which reminds me of a time, when Marvel VS Capcom was the hype, my local arcade had this huge ass 70" projector, right up front so everyone would stop to see the epic fights, and I managed somehow (I still don't really know, lucky I guess) to beat the dude who had just won an small torney there, the feeling man, it's awesome, heck, I won several small torneys after, and managed to get better than my rival (another friend who also loves fighting games and was a lot better than me when I started) but the feeling of that victory, is still the best one.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
