HOW DOES THIS GAME LOOK SO GOOD?! - Terry Legacy (Pt. 7): Real Bout 2 '98 

"I love the young people."

True

He and rugal

@@viniciuslobo3587 And Heihachi...and Shao Khan...and M. Bison...

And Cervantes from Soul Calibur

Emulators i guess ?

Awesome

I fuckin love emulators my first pc "game" in 2003 was visual boy advance lmao

My dad brought a tech and he downloaded some games one of them was SSF2 and thats where my love for SF begun

We all go through that glorious emulators phase

This game just went along with the pacing of online gaming. Simple as that.

And then, the fall of SNK betwen 2000 and 2001.

@@llamadelreyii3369 and now Capcom kidnapped Shinkiro, SNK's most famous cover artist

@@budgiecat9039 to be honest he was always back and on capcom and snk.

The NeoGeo was probably the most future-proof console/arcade ever. The technological advances from fatal fury 91 to this game is so fucking jarring, considering it's the same system

@@llamadelreyii3369 KoF 2000 was the last really good KoF game. 2001 onwards wasn't as good.

He played it already.

😂

I've only gotten that ad in videos that weren't about king of fighters ironically. Also what games are considered canon and what's the timeline like for the games?

@@fodv93 Fatal Fury 1/Wild Ambition, Fatal Fury 2, Fatal Fury 3, Real Bout Fatal Fury, Garou: Mark of the Wolves. EDIT (2024): It was recently confirmed that Real Bout 2 is no longer a dream match. It is now canon...even though RB2 has no story, but okay~

@@alexmcneill6445 Thanks. Does max put his legacy videos on a playlist or no?

@@fodv93 Usually. If he doesn't, someone else will for sure.

@@alexmcneill6445 Thanks

It's a dream match, that's kinda the point. It's lame yes.

@@DARS_04 even a dream match like KOF98 still has victory quote

MobileGamingJoe he's definitely my favourite Fatal Fury. The more I see him, the more I love him 😍

Been playing the games I could get my hands on, even imported in the Saturn age, since the SNES age. First I played on FF1 the stick was busted, yet I still tried to play it anyways. Got 2 and Special on the SNES, then the very early age of the internet showed me, there was more. So I went ordering from one of the early online game shops that was advertised in GameFan. GAMECAVE. I got KOF 95 released in the states, bought an imported 97 from Gamestop but had to take it back as there was a lil crack in it that messed up some stuff, so I imported that. I saw a combo twin box set of Real Bout and Real Bout Special, imported that sucker ASAP which gave me the first two RB games. RB2 didn't come till later and I didn't get to play it till much later. Along the way Dreamcast gave us 98 as 99dream match or such, so they then had to call 99 KOF Evolution. People use to talk smack on the Bogard, and the games. It's nice now to see the vindication of the lot and just how glorious and different they were. It's a grand little universe that I'm happy to see all the more folks interested in these days. My life will be a short one, but I'm glad I was born in 1980 and go on to experience what is likely some of the most creative ages of videgame ingenuity with the balancing of art and skill in beating the technical limitations to make fascinating games with great flavor and soundtracks made with such love.

Always has been

i agree. since FF1 it has evolved and only gotten better. it even has its own remixed version on AOF2. the arranged versions of the same games are so good. i have all of them on my mp3 playlist.

I really want to play it but i cant find a rom anywhere :/

@@laikaVNSMK i asked some brazilians playing kof2002 for a site with the rom and it gave me malware. So dont do what i did

@@ultrayoshi100 yeah... I've seen that's an issue with Brazilian sites. I'll double-check in my favorite site, I'll link it here if i find it...

@@laikaVNSMK There's the fatal fury battle archives on PS4.

I would but just like Max the pseudo 3D plane switching stuff doesn't vibe with me

"Rising Taco" is also quite perfect in this one.

Aren't the voice clips here the same from KOF 98?

@@FuriousGorge no shit, she married me. What's your excuse?

@@starbreaker269 i'm happy for you

Agreed xD

Then Max is doing his job well. I was excited to see not just Terry, but an SNK rep in general confirmed for Smash at last.

@@closedaccount2249 Amazing to see SNK branded. Also did you see my tweet because I'm not sure

Gogeta SSB Yeah, I saw the tweet. Just gotta find enough time to send you a message in the DMs. Don’t worry, I didn’t forget.

@@closedaccount2249 👍 Talk soon

Honestly, we need a Boxing team for KOF. Rick, Vanessa, Nelson and if there's 4 on 4 game play, add Heavy D! into the mix. EDIT: Name was fixed!

We dont have many native American characters in fighting games so a character like Rick Stroud is definitely one that should come back.

@@dnmstarsi You mean Heavy D? Lucky was the basketballer ;)

@@Spicypuff He's also one of the least stereotypical Native Americans in gaming so there's some extra points there for Mr. Stroud.

@@Bananas1000 You know what I mean. ;) Besides, I was half right.

What i would give for these types of stages in Morden fighting games.

madxruler sup good to see you on here.

@@artboy990 Always good to be around!

E24K Lawson Real Bout 1 & 2 look so clean. I think they're my favs from Fatal Fury. I hope to see Garou soon because I've heard that's the best one

Gogeta SSB You're in luck. Max played Garou: Mark of the Wolves last Tuesday night and defeated the true final boss of the game, Kain R. Heinlein.

Vanessa kinda stole his shtick of being a speed boxer. I hope we do get to see him back in Garou 2, as well as Xiangfei. Those two would definitely feel at home alongside the Garou cast.

You can thank his stream chat. Most of them seem to guide him in an odd direction.

Real Bout Special is a blast to play.

@@rayminishi689 yeah that's why We don't see kof 2001 which is arguably the worst, man I wanted to see his reaction to ignz

What about Garou?

@@shadowclonemaster He played Garou back when Rock was announced for KOF XIV, but I can't imagine Max wouldn't play it again. It's arguably SNK's best

that is certainly debatable. I mean you can even argue Dominated Mind being better if you're not a fan of the plane switching of the series (it removed it) and if you liked its parry system. Then of course there's Garou and I'd argue Last Blade 2...

@@budgiecat9039 there's something in those arguments. I'm not a big fan of parrying so that's why I didn't even consider garou, even tho it's the best animated SNK game. I think last blade was really good as well but the gameplay didn't feel quite as smooth as real bout 2 does at least that's my opinion. And hey it's a good thing this is debatable. It means that SNK made some awesome stuff back in the day. Let's hope they get back to those golden days soon. They're at a good start with kof 14 and samsho

Fatal Fury 3/RBFF games were basically that yeah; in combination to it (and RBFFS Dominated Mind and Garou MotW) being their answer to SF III as well

"HOW'S IT GOING DUDE"

@Romàn Nauwelaers Mostly chat

I know this is old, but Max had to skipped games because the Terry DLC for Smash was right around the corner and Terry is in so many fighting games as well. He couldn't do all of them in time for the Terry DLC.

@@luxerhusku2609 ah understandable. Just thought it was a shame because some of the games he skipped were my fav

yes

the legend do you know what‘s with the Marvel VS Capcom design style thou? Looks rather different than SNK‘s usual art/design style.

@@sheijlalaranda6421 What? Marvel vs capcom didn't event the style. It's 2d animated.

Sheijla Laranda Well the Real Bout series (and Fatal Fury 3) went with a more anime style than the old Fatal Fury games, similar to how Capcom did with the Alpha series.

Slade Joseph Wilson it didn‘t invent, but it was the first who popped into my mind

They were under a certain game presentation mindset, in the late 90s, where they were inclined to simplify things, instead of growing them in a linear way (like the natural expectation based on RBS from RB1). It was like: now let's cut out even seconds (intros and these special details) to make the game more profit efficient. That reminds me of how Capcom toned down some presentation elements in 3s, compared to 2i. Like, 2i ended up being the Last game with a specific victory and defeat art. It's simply that Capcom somehow decided to bet on a Very distinct musical direction for 3s, and that worked amazingly well. But the game doesnt have much care put on that presentation factor (unlike Sfa3 for example). It was a random bet that played out Very good for them. Both of those companies started getting kinda tired, i think. In the late 90s, with the notable exception of Jojo's Bizarre Aventure in the Capcom side, and Garou in the Snk side, It was mostly a time of winning the war by recycling your shit the most efficiently...

SNK was way ahead of it's time.

This was in 1998 check Art of Fighting 3 and Real Bout Special both from 1996

Yeah. And the prices for those Neo Geo shows how ahead they were. 600-800 USD back on the early mid 90's.

He is not playing any of these games again lol... He is too outside his element in Snk games (as anyone is able to see in the videos). Also the games dont mean anything to his mainly American audience - who just like him grew alienated from Snk and are only attached to Capcom. I mean, he could pick Mvci to play, and it would be a more popular video than a video with the best Snk game. That's how the American fg fans are.

@@carlosaugusto9821 I guess I'm a rare case. I'm American and grew up playing Fatal Fury, KOF, World Heroes, etc. If I didn't have the game, somebody I knew likely did.

They made the AI a bit more fair starting with Real Bout 1 so give those a try too for a less frustrating time.

Wow, even when he is like a literal total Noob in old Snk games? You should then train some stuff before going to the arcade mode. Like, to me there were many painful to watch bits in these videos, almost unwatchable bits. But that's Just because i'm a Snk fan...

He also skipped Real Bout Special Dominated Mind

@@chainedwanderer That one wasn't so good, not bad but not good

@@chainedwanderer and he'll probably skip Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition (or maybe not....but prob)

@@JosephXFS The SF3 like parry system alone is worth the view; also the Clockwork Orange final boss with his cheap OHKO desperation move lol

@@budgiecat9039 you said it my friend, the anime intro and cutscenes are worth it also.

Only until you cross the u.s border... (even If just virtually)

It's all in your heart buddy. I'm young and I'm starting to get a feel for old fighters so games like these just come naturally to me 😂🎮

He's biased towards Street fighter and it generates more views for him talking about it than other games

Better than all Capcom games though.

How do you select the Real Bout 2 version of Terry in KOF 98?

@@dealt I have '98 on my PSP; what I did there was hold start while choosing Terry as normal. You can do this for a number of characters, like Kyo, Andy, Yuri, Mai, among some others. You can even use the '97 Orochi forms of Chris, Shermie, and Yashiro.

Kush Man I did played king of fighters since 2015 I actually mostly played Iori and Terry

Also, if Geese is Terry's father, then, is Rock his BROTHER!??? And why Terry don't have the same outburst as Rock? I think Terry is not Geese's son, after all 🤔

Uncle. Geese is Terry and Andy's uncle. Rock is Geese's son. Terry and Andy are Rock's uncles. Its a crazy mixed up storyline.

I have never heard any of this.
