Welcome to Gaia! ::

NHL '94 is godly. I don't have the Genesis version, though. I don't even have a Genesis. crying

Kind of like Squaresoft and their merging with Enix.

i know i wish they would like make a new type of sports game ;>>

I'm not too big on sports game, cause I feel they lack the creativeness that the Mario seires is FULL of. But i did like Mario Hoops 3 on 3.

So far, Mario and co. has done almost every sport.

DO you guys think they could cut it in a hockey or football game?

Yes actually, I did know NBA Jam and Blitz were owned by Midway, still doesn't mean that new sequels are in order.

EA isn't going to do anything innovative or creative for the rest of their days as a gaming company because they don't give a s**t about the gamers, only the dollars.

Hey everyone, I'm leaving at about 11:30 and won't be home until some time after 2, so while I'm gone keep voting. Right now it's a tie, and I need a definitive winner. I've decided I'm going to do all 3, but the winner will go first, and it will go in that order basically.

Hey everyone, time for another review.

This time I'll be reviewing Neo-Geo Battle Colosseum for the PS2.






Neo-Geo Battle Coliseum is a crossover fighting game made by SNK Playmore, in which games released on the Neo-Geo arcade system are represented through their own respective characters. The game features characters from Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, Samurai Showdown, King of Fighters, Last Blade, Metal Slug, Buriki One, Savage Reign, World Heroes, Aggressors of Dark Combat, Athena, and 2 new characters that are for this game alone (Yuki and Ai.)

Here is a list of all the characters:

* The King of Fighters

Kyo Kusanagi (in his NESTs saga outfit)
Iori Yagami
K'
Shermie
Mizuchi (a clone of KOF 97's Orochi)

* Fatal Fury

Geese Howard
Mai Shiranui
Kim Kaphwan
Jin Chonshu
Jin Chonrei
Tung Fu Rue

Bosses

* Mizuchi: A clone of Orochi created by WAREZ.
* Neo Dio: An alien form, boss from World Heroes.
* King Lion/Shin Shishioh: The boss version of King Lion/Shishioh from Savage Reign and Kizuna Encounter.
* Goodman: The real final boss of NGBC. He uses a flaming whip both as a weapon, and to command a fire-like gorilla spirit (called Saru Ou, or Gorilla King) in a manner similar to an animal tamer. Interestingly enough, he looks very similar to Igniz, end boss of The King of Fighters 2001.


The game has a 2 on 2 tag battle system, similar to the vein of Marvel vs. Capcom. You press R1 to tag out, teams can also do a tag combo in which your partner will come out, hit your opponent into the air, while you do a combo in mid air and knock them back down.

The fighting style is very similar to the vein of King of Fighters, so if you are a fan of that, or of fighting games in general, this is the game for you.
The controls are very good, just like most SNK fighting games are, and the PS2 controller is just about perfect for your SNK fighting games, considering it's a mainly 4 button attack system.

I give this game a 10/10. It's a great fighting game, and has a very vast set of characters I didn't expect to be in this game. I personally would have liked some more Fatal Fury characters, but that's just me. This game is also only 15 bucks, I'd recommend getting this and KOF XI, both have similar engines but both are great games.

Yeah, that's too modern for me. Although NGBC is modern it's based on a retro style, my kind of style.
