The King of Fighters '99: Evolution

"...call on a fourth team member to race onto the screen and use a special attack of some kind... More pixilated than ever... surroundings are rather impressive... fighter count is lower than last years, the combatants are a lot more balanced..."

"All the backgrounds have been redone in 3D, and some very nifty exclusive backgrounds have been added. While they aren't incredibly smooth, the effect of depth it adds is quite nice. Little extra animation touches, like extremely cool rain puddles add a surprising bit of appeal to the game's visuals."

"...looks about as good as it possibly can on the Dreamcast... reproduces the gameplay and control scheme of the original King of Fighters '99 for the NeoGeo more or less... many of the characters that did make the jump from Dream Match to KoF Evolution seem stripped down..."

"...vintage KOF... you choose four fighters, one of whom is the designated the striker role before each fight... offers the most refined and Spartan fighting action... That's not to say that there are no combos, but they do little damage and are less extensive..."
