Suggest a SNK fighter for me

I also recommend KOF 98 or Fatal Fury Real Bout 2 as good starter fighters.

Cool, thanks. I'm excited for SFIV and I want to get more excited for KOFXII by getting into SNK's games.

Last Blade 2 is my favorite.

I'll go with Samurai Shodown 2 or Last Blade 2 like someone said. Nothing beats cutting people up. Punches and Kicks are for the weak.

As far as I know, one version has bigger load times and the other loads sounds on the fly, so there can be a bit of lag in the sound when the action gets intense, not sure which one came out in the US

Yeah, I read that somewhere. I think I would rather have the original SNK import than the Playmore re-relase or Agetec localization. They seem to be all about the same price, anyway.

In form is KOF 98 hitting PS2? A compilation of some kind?

Anyone here ever played SNK Vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos? Being quite young the first taste of fighting games I ever really got was Tekken and the like, so I never really played a lot of the classics. I remember I got into emulation around the time this game was released and it's what really pulled me into 2D fighters. Since then I've tried to play as many different ones as possible, but I still really enjoy this game.

I played the NeoGeo version but it's also available on PS2 and XBox.

All the Samurai Showdown games are great, especaily 2. I think 5 was released for x-box. I would also recomend Neo Geo Battle Collesium, but the characters aren't really as balanced as they should be. It's still a great title and you can pick it up for around 12 bucks.
