:tup: I noticed one of the differences was Kim. In RB1, Kim was a fucking cheesebox. Kim had a combo that could be done jumping in, standing up, and crouching. A guy I know one time had a winning streak of 30 wins because of Kim. But in RBS, Kim was toned down and that combo was pretty much non-existant.
I know that Kim and Sokaku were both cheap as all hell in RB1.
Billy was actually insanely good too, but he actually got better in RBS and RB2 whereas Sokaku got terribly nerfed and Kim was made much more sensible.
Yeah Sokaku was insanely powerful in RB1…I dont mind showing people just how powerful in a future Major when I hold a Real Bout 1, Special and 2 tourney for the PS2…can’t wait to play “The SNK State” Aka North Carolina…my eternal rivals it seems in the US of A hahaha.
I don’t know about better music…Real Bout Special is probably the best in my eyes. The music is good and the game is just fun. Even the moves look a little bit over the top, but not so much that it’s annoying (like MvC2). Kim’s Phoenix FTW.
I hope there’s some truth to SNKP releasing AOF collection in the US. If so, then there’s a glimmer of hope Real Bout can be brought over here.
The Wii may be our solution though guys since SNKP is releasing stuff for it…
FF Battle Archive 2 showed up today. :tup:
I’ll post up some impressions in the morning after I get out of work.
All you Real Bout 2 people I hope you are showing up at Final Round X when we will have a Real Bout 2 tourney catered to Garou Battle Archives 2!!!
Tried out all the games, I don’t know every single minute detail of the originals, but these all seem fine. No slow down, controls are spot on, etc. Very satisfied.
(Goes off to play RBS for a few hours. :bgrin: )
Man…someone would have to post a wrong video for the game.
Real Bout Special is damn good…Real Bout 2 is fucking awesome (I don’t care how “unfinished” it is); all of the Real Bout series is just an upgrade to Garou Densetsu 3 which was the most unfinished of them all. I’d really love to see a tournament organized for this game…you know…OFFLINE maybe?
Jester, you play Garou; damn you for living so far. I’d kill for a person to play EX AND RB with.
Noteworthy Video Links:
Garou Densetsu 3 Haruka-naru Tatakai All Charcter Combo Exhibition 1 by Rai - This game is one of the most insanely stupid I’ve ever seen from SNK, and that’s saying a lot.
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special Multi Character Combo Exhibition - Basics for even the console exclusive characters; but no Kim.
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special Multi Character Combo Exhibition 2 by S-Raw Style - And people were saying this game had no glitches? Really good exhibition.
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Dominated Mind Multi Character Combo Exhibition 1 by Adakino
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Dominated Mind Multi Character Combo Exhibition 2 by Adakino - Fans of Special should check out both of these videos, they are short but feature lots of crazy combo clips as an advertisement for Leaf of Adaki’s RBGDDM Combo DVD.
Real Bout Garou Densetsu + Special + 2 All Character Combo Exhibition 1 by Rai - Easily one of the best combo videos I’ve ever seen; the Capcom stuff at the end is kind of weak but the Real Bout stuff is superb.
Burningfist you are in Maryland right? All the SNK action is going to be going on about 8 days from now in Georgia…you should head on up…
Not a bad point idea…
Know anyone who is going from MD? I think Dan might be going but I’m not too sure on that. I need to make up for NEC! :wgrin:
Yes check the Final Round X thread and contact someone named Baltimore Chun. He’s going and Steve Harrison is going. You can’t miss this, this will be the SNK event of of first quarter 2007!!!
You saw my thread to see how many SNK tournies are being ran right??
Real Bout 2 is a confirmed tourney BTW.
How do you do Kim’s juggle?
If RBS had Rick, I would probably play it more. I really like his style. They shouldn’t have given Vanessa his Hellion!
