    I finally got to play SNK's King of Fighters 96, and the game is virtualy 
awesom! The game includes a couple of new teams, and a new last boss. One of 
the new teams include; Iuri (Kyo's arch-enemy), Vice, and Mature who are 
Rugals past two secutaries from the first two. The second team is a hero's 
nightmare; Mr. Big from Art of Fighting, Geese Howard and Kruasier from the 
Fatal Fury series.
 ** (Both Billy Kane, and Eiji from 95 have been taken out; along with
Heidern.)
    The graphics are as well done as Art of Fighting 3's graphics (for those 
who were lucky enough to play it). New features include an air block, along 
with a combo meter. Newly designed power guages were added in as well, with a
new dash attack which allows combos to be pulled off easier. And all of the 
characters received a couple new moves, while all of their supers are left 
he
same.
    Please if you get a chance to play this game at least one, do so. Because 
SNK games do not get as much hype as American games do. So please play it if 
you get the chance.
BTW: KOF'95 for the Playstation is a pretty good translation. But be warned 
f
you do not have very good patience, do not play this version, because its 
loading time is a record breaking slow. But if you do get a chance, go out 
nd
rent this game. It's worth it.
