King of Fighters

So it looks like the clan has switched from smash to guilty gear(GGXXS) once again. this was then followed by a quick trip down memory lane , or i would call Fighting Street where retroness came and gave us pocket fighter and the Zero series to hadouken down its still inviting 2d embrace.

Dramatic battle is always appealing not only for the bullying nature of having 2 players beat the pixellated stuffing out of the computer AI, but also to be on the receiving end as Shin Bison / Super Bison invokes all manner of computer disgustingness and decides to ramp up the difficulty
to dish the hurt out on a silver platter. versus game + cooperative mode = leet. i hope the Wii's smash brothers has this.

But look.. KOF comes and its 3d button mashing goodness has gotten even non SF-ers like prem and jed to participate. i suppose its the randomness of button pressing correlated with the distinct possibility of having a decent combo come out while doing just that. yes.. that means derrick is pretty good at this game.

and the challenge is to defeat prem's character.. who has a very short recovery time for most of the moves. and whose moves are multi hit, (which charges the super bar) and its just a bit difficult to fight. its not unbeatable.. its just something to hoot. like ong's super garuda.
alvin calls it "sucker for punishment". i tend to agree.



Hence Prem will do these moves.. (in no apparent order)







how to counter you say??
among other moves.. this is my favourite.
