PSX Nation

The one-two punch of this brawler and "Metal Slug X" has finally brought a smile to the faces of SNK fans still morning the loss of the NeoGeo Pocket.

GamePro

KoF '99 retains all the fighting fun of the previous years, though the load times will wear at your patience and make you long for the Dreamcast version.

GameSpot

A decent port of an inherently disappointing game.

This game is really good. It implements lots of actual fighting styles which kind of reminds me of bloodsport. My buddys and I liked this game so much we bought two copies the first day.

Kyo K. gave it a 10:
This game is perfect and just i expected to be more better than 98'. The fast combos and DM and SDMs make the game more interesting. I just wish that there would be more stages. Good and well done SNK.

Miguel G. gave it a 10:
This game is my favorite.

Miguel Z. gave it a 10:
The finishers are good but tough to do. It's a challenge to get the arts and video. Graphics are good. Moves are good. Anyone who hates it just suck your own freakin' self cause i give this a 10!!

Before I give out my response to this game, I must comment on Jonathan H.: DBGT sucked.... DBZ Legends had horrible grahpics, but I'm not a graphics whore, so i don't care. It had great gameplay. Thats what killed DBGT. DBZ UB22 was just slow as hell. now... KoF99 is indeed one of the best 2D fighters the PSX ever had. Amazingly drawn characters and incredible moves, including the great "striker", the game offers great gameplay, and the extras that come along with it, like the color config, and demo, aer pretty tight. What kills most of the joy of the game is that for 1) the boss is just......well read everyone else's opinion on it. The load times are REDUNDANT as f..k. Street Fighter ALpha 3 never had that much load time in it, so what the hell... Overall though, the game is really good. Anyone a fighting fan, check this game out. Note: fighter fanatics: buy the game...only if you don't already have the dreamcast version. game collectors: DEFINITELY buy the game. Kof99 is becoming very rare for the PSX to get intact, like Mr. Driller. Later. P.S. i stand by my comment on the DBZ games. If you guys were true fans of the series, then you'd have DB Z Hyper dimension on SNES and NOT the rom....(probably the best DBZ fighter)

Joseph A. gave it a 9:
This is a great game when it comes down to the dream fights as well as the fighting period. It is an action packed game full of exploding characters, and I think it is wonderful. I think this is the game that I have been waiting for.
