Profile

General: Fatal Fury "Special" isn't retarded, it's just a more complete version of Fatal Fury 2... Basically, this installment allows you to play as the bosses from Fatal Fury 2 and marks the return of Duck King, Tung Fu Rue and Geese Howard (a few classics from the original Fatal Fury). The game also has an appearance by Ryo Sakazaki from the Art Of Fighting series. The gameplay is basically the same (kinda slow), but feels a bit better overall.

Closing Comment: SNK takes a recipe from Capcom's book with their Street Fighter 2 series, and dishes out an updated version of Fatal Fury 2, with more characters. This is definitely the better option when it comes to the Fatal Fury 2 engine, but the game suffers from the same slow gameplay.~F.Yagami, Webmaster of TFG
