I love 2D fighters. My favorite in this three game collection was The Path of the Warrior. I like the smooth animations. The AI is tough so be prepared to get beat down until you get better.

3 great games in 1. Fun game, little difficult but you get the hang of it with time and patience.
Requiem –
A great classic

Good collection of good fighting games. I really like Art of Fighting 3 the most. It was really ahead for it’s time with smooth animation.

This series is the truly special. There is much history that resulted from these games. This game was released in direction competition to Street Fighter II. Also the reason Dan Hibiki was born later on. This series was created by Street Fighter creator, Takashi Nishiyama.This game pioneered dashing, super special moves, damage on characters, taunting, spirit gauge among many things.Not only that but the mood, music, sound effects, graphics, and dramatic tone of the game are truly epic and top quality. The series, especially the first 2 games are heavily influenced by martial arts movies and legends and real life Karate Master Mas Oyama.While the games don’t play exactly like other 2D fighters, it is similar and with enough time spent on the games, they become very addictive and fun.A must-have for fans of fighting games, Neo Geo games, or SNK games. This was the first Mega Shock Neo Geo title so it truly is special.
Kirby –
Complete series before they were in king of the fighters.

Snk-Playmore seems to be one of the last companies to be releasing these old-school compilations. I’m personally glad that they are archiving the legendary Neo-Geo collection thru these releases.Personally, I’ve never been a big fan of the Art of Fighting series. Just couldn’t really get into it like some other fighting games; however, I still enjoyed it from time to time.This compilation is a no-frills “direct to video” port from the Neo-Geo. You get all three original AOF games without any touch-ups or additions. Some might berate this tactic, but I don’t mind it ‘au natural’.You get three original Neo-Geo fighters, that went for about $200 each back in the day; now for around $10 or less. Don’t like 2D sprite-based fighters? Then go look elsewhere. Otherwise, you’ve come to the right place for some SNK nostalgia.

For casual gamers, SNK’s Art of Fighting franchise may not be as well known as their King of Fighters, Fatal Fury, or Samurai Showdown franchises, but that has never made it any worse. The Art of Fighting Anthology collects the three games in the series that follow the fighting adventures of Ryo and Robert as they take to the streets. The first game is the only one that has a storyline that makes any kind of relative sense (the pair are on the hunt for Ryo’s kidnapped sister Yuri), but since when have you played a fighting game for the story? All three games have been emulated relatively perfectly from their Neo Geo arcade counterparts, which is good and bad. The first game suffers from a bit of slowdown and offers somewhat archaic controls, while the second game improves on this. The third Art of Fighting game is undoubtedly the best and re-vamps the graphics and tweaks the gameplay as well, making this collection worth picking up for alone. Though it would have been nice if some extras were included on the disc, the Art of Fighting Anthology is an excellent pick up for the price; and offers some great, old school 2-D fighting action that is still enjoyable to this day. Like the Metal Slug Anthology before it, maybe SNK will release some of their other franchises (like Fatal Fury or Samurai Showdown) in compilation form for the PS2 before it finally goes to console heaven.
