 King of Fighters: A Minimum Impact On Gamers August 23, 2005
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
King of Fighters: Maximum Impact is the first KOF 3-D game. Although this game has a good presentation, good graphics, awesome sound & visual effects, and awesome voiceovers, the controls just make this version of KOF unplayable.
Graphics 7/10 - Yes, I know I said that this game has good graphics, but, seriously, they could be better. However for SNK's 1st attempt in a 3-D KOF game, they did a good job.
Sound Effects/Voiceovers 10/10 - The sound effects and voiceovers in this game blew me away! Probably the best thing in the game!
Visual Effects 10/10 - Awesome visual effects! All the moves are done very well.
Gameplay 3/10 - Unfortunately, the very difficult-to-master controls makes this version of KOF unplayable. There are about 20-30 controls for each character, many of them hard to memorize and hard to perform quickly.
Bonus DVD 2/10 - The collector's edition includes a bonus behind-the-scenes DVD. BORING! All they talked about in this video is how they changed the game into 3-D. There is one chapter in this DVD that gives you a profile of each character. It's like reading the beginning text in a Star Wars movie....only much, much longer (over 20 minutes to be exact). Well...at least this DVD makes a good collector's item.
Overall: I recommend this game only if you are a fan of the King of Fighters series. If you're looking for a good fighting game, get Soul Calibur II for PS2.

Overall, this game is great! Althought Duke is a pain in the ass, I still like this one! The new characters are interesting too. 'nuff said!
