THIS WAS THE MOST EMBARRASSING WAY TO LOSE...

[@85futureshock]

This game is one of the reasons why im so glad I still own a Japanese Saturn. Out of all the KOF games, 96 has the best music and backgrounds. This game felt like the first one in the series where it started to establish its own identity and an example of how SNK always put those little touches into their presentation versus Capcom.

[@xm_heecka.laddder.job_mx5962]

Also don't forget.... freaking Flying people in the Sky due to Goenitz tornado

[@DARS_04]

A shame that the music resets after every round. The AES release is pretty cool, and the console versions are both better and worse in regards to the presentation.

He can only beat one boss ,,, and It's Orochi. Because Orochi AI is broken. And orochi is the easyest boss to beat

The song that was playing while you were fighting Athena was Psycho Soldier, the eponymous theme song of the game Athena and Kensou came from, Psycho Soldier (1987) Fun fact, the Psycho Soldier theme had vocals in the original game, which was the first video game to ever have a vocal theme song

[@purifyws]

I'd be surprised if there's *ever* been another person that's just picked this game up and beat it with one continue. Not knowing all the mechanics just makes it that much more impressive Also not everybody is willing to embrace running the clock right from the get-go, but that's our Justin lol. Great stuff

[@sarvag13]

Justin has played tons of kof to know the mechanics, he played 2002 um online and all the kof 13 trial combos for each character, he's quite the experienced player and the expert of finding the cheapest way out xD

[@Jasonred79squeek]

It actually does. Goenitze can DM whenever he likes. When he is red life OR when he has DM bar, he does an SDM. ... and when he has low life AND DM bar, he does an SSDM. I tested it out.

[@PikangsFutaba]

@@Jasonred79squeek yeah, that's the only reason, otherwise is like he's not in red and has unlimited bar, but a funny thing that happened to me, is that Goenitz for some weird reason fought me fair and square the 1st time I beated KOF 96

It is great watching Justin play KoF96. Iori is one of my favorite characters. It was a little disapointing that we didn't get to see Justin land Iori's Max Desperation move. Those are always full on extra.

[@skylersneathen4799]

He found the trick. Goenitz falls for repeated shit like this. I recall I found with Leona - keep doing her ground sabre (charge back, press forward + kick). If he blocks, do it again and he'll probably block it & won't punish or take it. Wash, rinse, repeat. My brother found with Geese just keep doing his dp, and Goenitz will fall for that.

I remember getting to this boss a few times when I played this at the arcades. Maybe I'm confusing him with a different one but I remember some characters easily laming him out. But it's been ages, literally when the game was new so I am not sure. I mostly played 98 and Rugal there could definetely be lamed out with a few characters.

[@LordRaptor]

It took until KOF 2002 for a KOF game to be better than KOF 1996 imo, obviously a big turning point and one of the best games in the series, I consider this game the blueprint for what KOF would become and remain until this day.

[@rendarecorrentecomopcoes2336]

Kof96 is beautiful and defined the style that would become synonymous with the KOF series. But the game itself is terribly unbalanced. Look at Robert or Mature, every special move is safe, you can spam Robert's "tatsumaki" all day and the opponent cant counter. The best KOF for competition is 98 in my opinion. Other than f*king Iori, the game is relatively balanced and really competitive.
