![]() ![]() Once you’ve defeated him he gets punched through the veranda and falls to his death Geese is the first FG character to utilize a counter move when not spamming Reppukens at your ass, he’ll stand his ground and PREDICTABO-ly catch any physical attack you launch at him (though to be more exact, if you merely JUMP at him he’ll grab you so it’s grab+counter attack). Geese Howard is the game’s final boss and is fought at the top of his main headquarters: Geese Tower. Billy is Geese’s right hand man, and fights with a bo staff. ![]() Raiden in FF1 has the goofiest stance ever, and while Capcom did try to make it sensible, it wouldn’t be until KoF 13 that said stance was animated properly enough for it to look good.īilly Kane is the next mid boss that’s fought after Raiden. He’s the toughest opponent to beat in the game up to this point. Raiden’s most common attack is to spit saltpoison at your face, in addition his normal attacks hit like a truck. OK it’s not exactly abandoned but the way it’s colored implies it to me. Oddly enough he is fought at an abandoned amusement park. Upon defeating all opponents, you face off against the end bosses-Ĭlick to expand.Raiden is a disgraced Australian wrestler who works as one of Geese’s thugs. He can do hurricane uppers, but other than that, nobody gives a rat’s ass about this guy and he was quickly forgotten. Michael Max is the game’s designated black boxer. Supposedly he was ill during the events of Fatal Fury 1 having contracted whatever it was Birdie had during Street Fighter 1. He enters the tournament to get money for Duckling support. Still you gotta give SNK credit for TRYING to get all those Capoeira animations to work on the initial NG hardware.ĭuck King is the funkiest and grooviest dancer to ever kick ass in parachute pants. Richard fights using Capoeira making him the first actual capoeira user in a fighting game…even though his animations look really goofy. Richard Meyers runs the PaoPao Café nightclub, and enters the tournament for the monetary prize and to promote his nightclub. When he loses half his health he will hulk out and proceed to smash his opponents. Tung Fu Rue is Terry’s master whom he learned martial arts from, known to be a cool old guy and not a perverted turtle hermit. Incapable of matching Joe’s Hurricane generating prowess, he drowned his sorrows in booze, although it was said that he was a heavy drinker long before Joe’s stylish hair, sweet ass and Hurricane Uppers took people’s attention away from him. ![]() I’ll be focusing on the main games in the series and would be excluding some of the handheld titles in the series.Ĭlick to expand.Hwa Jai is a Muai Thai fighter and rival to Joe. ![]() The Fatal Fury series spans over half a dozen titles, excluding ports, with each having their own play style and systems. To me Fatal Fury ranks among my top 100 VG series of all time, while the games have their issues I still enjoy playing them from time and time and you can see the love and effort SNK had put into each game in the series (Topless Mary notwithstanding). My second foray into the series was through Real Bout 2 at an arcade at the time I was into KoF like many others and playing RB2 was a rude awakening of sorts what with that game playing differently to KoF and over time I got to play the remainder of the series. Personally I got into the series through Garou: MotW and having experienced the SF3 series some time after 1999, Garou won me over with its fluid animations and bright colorful visuals. While it may not be the most popular series ever, it has its fans, and is all in all a very interesting and varied fighting game series.įatal Fury can be safely seen as SNK’s flagship title of the time, being the rival to Capcom’s Street Fighter series (although King from Art of Fighting/Ryuko no Ken still stands as SNK’s first FG lady). ![]()
