the King of Fighters

The first ever dream match game to actually turn into it's own canonical series, that used to come out on a yearly basis until after 2003. The series isn't as mainstream as Street Fighter (who in term of boss difficulty is noob-like compared to SNK) and actually is harder to find in stores. The game is in a team battle 3-on-3 format that is usually is the standard for future dream match titles other than KOF itself. There is single player mode as well but no one goes there do they? Every few games, they have a new saga and focus the game around a new set of characters something Street Fighter NEVER DONE! and add a somewhat newer cast withsome old school faves. Usually those that bash KOF usually got their ass handed to them by Rugal or some other SNK boss character with relative ease because they tried to play it like Street Fighter
