this is my King of Fighters: Maximum Impact fansite.
I hope you enjoy your stay!
-The commercial for the game is now available on-line, you can download it by clicking here.
-The free Terry Bogard Fatal Fury hat has been delayed at GameStop, but should be available soon.
-There will be an Xbox version of the game released sometime next year for Europe, no confirmation of a U.S. or Japanese release as of yet.
-Also, I got the game on it's release day, and let me just say, IT"S AWESOME!!!! The only downside so far for me is the English voice acting, and the fact the you can not switch it to it's original Japanese language track. But otherwise, I love it!!!
-I will be updating the the characters section with the full story for each of them soon, except for Hyena and Duke.
