Garou Mark Of The Wolves (PS2)

[eastyy]

Qp FP
Qk FK
Been playing it quite a bit and found a corner combo for marco here it is

jump in with a Fk then Fp do a quick dragon punch and cancel it VERY quickly follow with the TOP attack if timed right the last hit will miss but it means the enemy stays in the air longer so you have time do to the super dragon punch.You can also use the qcf+qk instead of the top attack and if your very fast you can link the super dragon punch after it

Are the character sprites the correct size (or near enough) ?
Also i'd like to gauge your opinion on the graphical quality of the two machines when viewing both Garou's on CRT's?

The sprites look exactly the same size to me. And with the filtering set to "soft", there's no meaningful difference in the graphics at all. If you use the X&Y positioning to move the screen up a bit you can even semi-crop the score to make it look EXACTLY like the NGH version

It's a great port IMO. Might be tempted to get rid of the cart before the arse falls out of the Neo market completely

I took a couple of pics to compare them (they're not direct screen grabs, so any difference in quality is down to the actual photo quality).

Still really a shame snk-playmore did not spend time enhancing it for the PS2.Even a few ps2 exclusive backgrounds i would have been happy with.

Excellent and tough game for me

I emailed Ignition and they said they are unable to comment at present as to whether the likes of Garou, Re-Bout and suchlike will get a PAL release. Considering how long it has taken Sam Sho V and the other Slugs to appear, I would say that chances are looooooow.

I picked up Re-Bout while I was in Japan, came in a lovely set with a neogeo2 pad for the lovely sum of ?15 \o/ . Its an absolutely stunning re-make rammed with new sprites, backgrounds, play options, and also includes the original neo-geo version of the game and a new animated intro. Absolute must for any KOF 94 fans

I thought Ignition went bust?

[nightstalker100]

they have which means the funs over for europe now.No snk releases will see the light of day over here which means unless you import you're screwed. But im not surprised to be honest what we their shoddy scheduling and inability to release a game to its announced release date. What did we get anyway? 4 or 5 games. 2 on the xbox and 3 on the ps2. What a shame. I think it spells the end for any future snkplaymore release in europe, i can't honestly see any of the games being released on the next gen consoles.

[Baseley09]

They didnt it was a *misinterpretation*. They have 3 or so games coming out this month.

[nightstalker100]

Best news ive had all day. cheers

[Balou]

You mean Metal Slug 4 & 5, King of Fighters 2002 and Samurai Showdown 5?
They are all scheduled for release in september and october according to Amazon.

[The Streetest Dude]

Ignition, fortunately, have not gone bust. Nor were they ever near going bust. What an odd rumour to be circulating, where did you hear it?

King of Fighters '02 should be out this month, KOF '03 a bit later. Everything else, also a bit later.

[Big Seany]

Agree with last comment. They a'int bust, as they emailed me, like, a few weeks ago!
