PS2 Underrated Gem: King of Fighters: Maximum Impact

This is a series of gameplay vids I'm doing highlighting overlooked games for the PS2.

King of Fighters: Maximum Impact is SNK Playmore's foray into the 3D fighting world, and while it's not perfect, it's definitely a better 3D run than the Street Fighter EX series IMO.

SNK Playmore has brought their premeir fighting franchise into the 3D realm in style. It's a fast and furious 3D fighter with 2D fighter gameplay. It also ads a few things due to the change into the new dimension.

KOF: MI is also availble in an upgraded version on the Xbox as King of Fighters Maximum Impact Maniax which has a Japanese language option, and online play.

The Xbox version would probably be the one to go with if you've got the option, but the PS2 version is still great regardless.

It also has a PS2 sequel.

Yeah 2006 and Regulation A are WAY Better. But really the only thing that killed this was Sony America's choice to dub this with people off the street.
