Review: No, Fatal Fury "Special" isn't retarded, it's just a more complete version of Fatal Fury 2...
Cheap joke, I know. Basically, this Special upgrade allows you to play as the boss characters and also marks the return of several classic characters that were sadly missing from Fatal Fury 2.
.
Fatal Fury 2 brings back some of the old favorites like Duck King, Tung Fu Rue, and Geese Howard. Ryo Sakazaki from the Art Of Fighting series also makes an epic appearance as a bonus character you can fight against. The gameplay is basically the same as Fatal Fury 2, but is a bit faster and features a new combo system. Graphically, the game was enhanced in some areas (like the selection screen), and several stages were updated.

Closing Comment: SNK takes a page out of Capcom's book and dishes out an "updated" version of Fatal Fury 2, with more characters... While an improvement over Fatal Fury 2, it was still an "average" 2D fighting game at the end of the day. ~F.Yagami, Webmaster of TFG
