    Just in case you are wondering, those characters are not tournament legal and disabled by default on multiplayer games (Max manually allowed them to be used because he wanted to play Geese, unaware that the others are beyond broken)... Probably for the best tho, stabbings are notoriously common in arcades with KOF.

    Now THIS one, this one right here is absolutely one of my favorite KOF's ever. Gigantic roster, great music, great artwork, and really fun gameplay. 2002 UM is an outstanding game. It's everything i love about KOF.

      Hello Orlanzo :)
      OG KOF 2002 and 2002UM are two completely different games.
      As much as I prefer the roster of UM, I really missed the OST of OG 2002, the Stages and K9999
      *Tears '02* , *Kurikinton '02* , *Beauty and the Beast '02* , *Seoul Ni Ikou! '02* , *Diet '02* and *Violent Fire, Lightning, Earth* are my favorite remixes.
      The original tracks like *Deserted Town* , *Tacos Dance* *The Netherlands* , *Progress* , *Napolitan Trance* and *Last Dance* are amazing!
      Such a shame SNK Playmore didn't make an arranged soundtrack of the music of OG 2002 BUT thankfully the fans have made awesome remix covers.
      I recommend listen to *The King of Fighters NeoStation* and *Daniel D Harvey* remix covers.
      The Stages in OG 2002 were great!
      Mexico, Italy, China, Korea and Rugal's being my favorites!
      I liked how most of stages change between rounds having a day, afternoon and night phase.
      Also the music changes between rounds in the VS mode depending of which character appears.

'98 UM was basically '98 with more characters and stages while '02 UM is basically a different game completely from vanilla '02.
      As far as vanilla '02.....ehhh i'd be lying if i said i really liked the music or stages, i didn't lol. But i did like REALLY like "Deserted Town". That was my favorite track in the game, so ominous and tension filled.

    One of the things I like about this game is the sheer number of cameos from other SNK fighters. That school festival stage Chizuru, Saisyu, and a character from Art Of Fighting 3. That Korea stage has Kim's two kids as they appear in Garou and what I'm 90% sure is a Last Blade character. That Thailand temple stage has both the Capo characters from Fatal Fury and two of the Metal Slug characters. The restaurant has Tung Fue Rue, Hon Fu, some dude who was in the first or second Art of Fighting, and both of the Jin brothers. The beach stage has Alfred from Fatal Fury: Dominated Mind, Jubei, Duck King, one of the guys from the Sports Team in KOF, a character from Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition, and I'm pretty sure the main character from Buriki One. There's probably another 15 I just don't feel like naming because this comment's already too long.

    Mediterranean: Alfred front and centre, Jubei Yamada perving to the left until Toji Sakata comes in later, Duck King and Heavy D! on the far right.
    Neogeo World: Franco Bash up front, Sho Hayate on the rail, Jin Fuha spinning in the centre, Cheng Sinzan being fat and floating in the air.
    Kyokugenryu Dojo: Lee Pai Long standing in the centre, Ryuhaku Todoh at the next pillar to the right, Gato behind the row of sitting students, Khushnood Butt at the end of the row, Hotaru Futaba shows up next to the dragon painting on the right.

    My favourite game from the King of Fighters franchise, in virtually almost every aspect from the gameplaywise having some of my favourite variations of some characters like Orochi Yashiro. To the varied roster, with inclusion of Nameless and his pretty good story.

    Watching you play and rejoice with the broken stuff you could do with Igniz was fun, but you _definitely slept_ on the oh so *BROKEN* chainings that both Omega Rugal and Nightmare Geese have.
    2002 is fondly remembered because it pioneered the use of the "dream cancel" and "super dream cancel" for combos. Someone using those and knowing how to cancel movements upon movements won't even let you touch the ground, much like Igniz, which as broke ass he is, _also had a couple of cancellable moves_
    That and you never used the hidden super deadly moves of each of them when you had the chance at low health. I wanted to see Geese's half bar reppuken again, hah!
    But i'm glad you had fun Max! ...don't play these three on any arcade though, they banned; and with reason when you see the broken combo videos.

    fun fact the character angel was created because a bunch of mexican devs kicked the asses of the kof devs at their own game multiple times. I can't remember the full story but definitely look it up and read it if you get the chance. Vaguely i remember it starting out as money matches in the 1000s of dollars and somewhere in the middle there was a bet to have a character put in one of the games. Them south and central americans they love their kof.
    igniz is in the top 3 hardest kof bosses of all time. the other 2 in contention being magaki from 11 and omega rugal from this game 2002. Part of the challenge is that you only get 1 attempt before it game overs you but even without that this rugal is a strong contender for hardest kof boss. if you ever do a boss rage make sure to save state.

While the character herself wasn't created because of the people at Evoga, who would later make Rage of the Dragons, her name is indeed because of Evoga's Ángel Torres, who did win a tournament involving SNK staff. That's why Ángel's name is masculine, instead of the feminine Ángelina it would normally be.

    Just to clarify, this version people are playing nowadays of 02um and 98um on steam/ps4 are ports of the xbox 360 version and dont have the 3d effects of the Ps2. The 2d content might have received some higher resolution, but if you check the game on the Ps2 version on emulator you will see how pretty these games really are. The Ps2 on a tube tv was the peak of quality.
    To give an example, 19:52 in this few seconds the camera would slowly descend to the battle arena with a paralax effect.
    My point is, its just sad that when the game got rollback and competitive online, people have to play with retro graphics.
    And is kinda sad to see new players thinking this is the 'real' visual of the game.
    98um got a bit too far and even removed some scenarios from the ps2 version.
    Whats more weird in my opinion, NeoGeo Batttle Coliseum (that no one cares) got a HD port to xbox360 with all the 3D effects and most likely will stay there alone forever.
