Ah, so Young Geese is the long haired Geese from Art of Fighting? (I've seen artwork, but no actual in-game shots of him).
Anyway, not having an X-box means I won't bother with Neo Wave. I'm quite looking forward to KOF: Maximum Impact 2 though.

Neowave is really disappointing. It's 2002 with a gloss of paint, and not a particularly shiny one at that. I mean, it loads in between fights and stops the music - that hasn't been a problem since the DC version of 98. It's no big deal because the music sucks anyway. There aren't even any win quotes either. It's really a lot of minor stuff, but considering you can get 02/03 together as a pack - and 03 is definitely my favorite KoF - that's definitely the better value. Even if you really like 02, it's just really redundant, except for the addition of Young Geese. There's not enough room for a repeated "UGH" to express my annoyance with this. It also makes absolutely no sense what with the 02/03 pack having load times as well (pretty minor ones in my opinion) with music playing all the while, while NeoWave doesn't. Oh well, I'm still gonna get it just to support SNKP and really try to learn the new systems/"grooves" that it has. And Young Geese. UNF! |

I already have KOF 02/03, so I'm probably going to skip on it and wait for KOFXI. I played it in the arcade and it's pretty disappointing. Probably worth the $20 if you don't have 02/03 for the PS2 or XBox, though.

I don't know, I find it hard to muster enthusiasm for this and for things like Capcom fighting evolution when they are still using 10 year old character sprites and move sets for the better part... I'm happy with my neo-geo and King of the Fighters '98 personally  |

i really have very little desire to pick NeoWave up (i'd rather save $$ for MI2 or XI), but i almost feel like i have to, or else SNKPlaymoreUSA (ahh, too long) won't have as much leeway with bringing other titles out here in the future. i think the whole thing with Rebout being cancelled a month before its release sort of scared me.
