New Review Posted: King of Fighters: Maximum Impact

It's nearly February tenth, and this year I've decided to celebrate my birthday the traditional Canadian way, by reviewing King of Fighters: Maximum Impact:

"King of Fighters: Maximum Impact seems to have come from a bizarre parallel dimension; a parallel world where there was never a Virtua Fighter, or a Tekken, or a Dead or Alive, or even a Battle Arena Toshinden (the now-forgotten game that first made "changing the axis" into a workable 3D fighting game mechanic). KOF:MI doesn't just feel like first game in a new series; it feels like the first game in a new genre. Unfortunately, though that genre has actually existed for more than a decade now, SNK just seems to be completely unaware of it."

Scintillating stuff, right? Bet you can't wait to get a look at the rest of the review.

I'm getting a broken link. But it might just be my computer

I can't read the review. I was laughing too hard after reading the first sentence in the consumer advice part.

Quote:

Parents should feel comfortable about letting their teens play it. It's very violent, but it's completely unrealistic and non-imitatable violence, unless your children are exceptionally limber.
