“What the hell?” I hear you ask, well allow me to explain. The game consists of 48 different characters from the Street fighter and SNK brands and six different groove settings, C- Groove, A- Groove, P- Groove, S- Groove, N- Groove and K-Groove.
I rarely played this mode because it caused many a frustrating moment between me and my cohorts when I would get beaten because my fighter was weaker than theirs. This allows you to have two weaker fighters and one supremely strong one or one weak character and two stronger than average ones etc. The third option (and most likely the least used) is the ratio fights you may pick up to three characters and distribute the damage ratio amongst them. There is also a three on three fight option where you select three fighters each and use them one after the other, it’s a shame that there is no tag option as it really would encourage much more intellectual fights based on switching characters tactically. This can become quite tedious at times and very frustrating when you make it all the way to the end just to get bitch slapped to Hades and start all over again. The basic one on one fights are simple enough, best of three and the winner progresses to a slightly harder opponent. This is where the game comes into its element, ok so it’s hardly pushing the genre but it still amazes me in the same way it did when I was a child. Ok so they’ve looked good since the PS1 but I just can’t get enough of seeing that bright blue light emanate from my hands as it makes its way towards my opponent. One thing that managed to impress me though was the attacks, mainly the energy ones. Instead we are given pixelated computer game characters that were made to hurt each other. They don’t look as spectacular as they should, were on the next generation of consoles here people, this should look like a spectacular display of characters that look ripped straight from an anime duelling it out. Unfortunately the characters also are quite dire. Other interesting sights consist of a big beer guzzling cowboy and two giant sumo ninja men staring each other out. The guys at Capcom clearly have never visited London before which looks more like the outside of a museum with big red buses.

Not a major plus for the game, nice well presented backgrounds that look rather good and can be quite comical at times. This is the first fighting game of the Street Fighter breed I have ever bought, expecting only to use it for multi-player games I’ve found a compelling, well rounded fighter that will have you coming back for round 2.

Or if unlike me and you are a fan of the both series then you will most likely be wetting yourself at the concept of this game. Ever wanted to beat down on Ryu from Street fighter with Iori from King of Fighters? No I thought not, if like me you have never heard of SNK or KOF the latter part of the name is hardly going convince you to buy this.
