    This game should have never made it past Microsoft quality testing. While I love the King of Fighters series it is unacceptable to release a game in the U.S. that has game affecting options written in japanese. Not to mention that ALL of the win quotes are also in japanese. Only the most hardcore fighter will want to pay for this and that is a shame, because it is a decent game.

    With so many options to tweak and enough characters to repopulate a barren world, this one should last you a while. Especially if you have buddies to fight with.

    KoFUM is still worthy of a solid score, due to the fact that it’s still one of the better pure fighters ever made, but it will be hard for casual brawler fans to realize its allure.

    This port comes up somewhat short. [Issue#49, p.102]
