Cara, eu acho tão legal o fato dos personagens do seu time ficarem no fundo torcendo por você e/ou ficando tristes quando você perde, é um negócio tão divertido e que dá muito carisma e personalidade pro jogo, que num geral já é muito carismático e charmoso. Enfim, ótimo fighting game, mesmo que eu seja tão ruim nesse quanto sou no KOF 2002.

No sale Kyo peruano pero sale el padre de Kyo peruano

My day be so fine, then BOOM! Extra mode dodge...

Probably my most played KoF game. I really like playing as Brian and Lucky and this is their only game aside from other versions of 98 and 94.

Brian spin goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


There's so much I can say about this game, but I'll keep it incredibly brief; this is one of the very few fighting games out there where I legitimately wanted to put the time into learning its entire roster.

Picked up the original game in around 2013, moved on to PS2 UM a few years later, and still playing now ever since the rollback update. I'm three characters away from being able to reliably win with random select.

I don't think I'll ever feel any less bad about being so late to appreciating SNK's games.

One of my favorites and one of the best old-school fighting games out there, definitely the best old-school KOF game due to the large roster and gameplay improvements over older KOF games. While this is not the best port out there (if you're looking for online fighting only don't even bother, the netcode in this game is crap) it still provides a solid fighting game with excellent sprite artwork at a good price (this game goes on sale fairly often).

the jank was somewhat ironed out. fuck you if you play krauser fuck you fuckyou

IT ALL BEGAN IN ‘94.
KEPT ON ROLLIN’ IN ‘95.
PIECES FELL IN PLACE IN ‘96.
IT CAME TO THE END IN ‘97.
AND NOW IT COMES AND HERE WE GO.
THE KOF IS HERE AGAIN.

NOTHING’S GONNA STOP IT’S 1998.

It has Rollback so it's good :)

A fantastic game with awesome characters and great gameplay. Subpar netcode.

If you are looking for nostalgia, quality and replay value this is the masterpiece you are looking for.
It's the only KOF game that gives you the feeling of a tournament as it's shown that the matches are being broadcasted and the audience are cheering. Also, I miss the other teammates cheering or getting frustrated in the background which is missing from the later KOF games. Also, Rugal is scarier that other bosses. To most of the KOF fans KOF XIII is the best one but to me KOF 98 is the best KOF game

Chris en su forma más honesta

Bring back the American Sports team you cowards.

Why tighten up the controllers? Only because this is a classic arcade game doesn't mean everboy will play with an arcade stick. The joystick controls are too tight which increases dificulty for nothing. The salvation here is the addition of KOF 96 character roster. You will be more satisfied playing other versions of this game.

I suck at fighting games, the horrendous netplay doesn't help, neither does my wifi, but goddamn this is kino

edit: IT HAS ROLLBACK BAYBEEE

Is a fun game with a good fight mechanics, but the online is dead (on the steam version)
