Do you know why those 2D fighter fans are smirking all over their faces? Because King of Fighters '98, one of the most popular 2D fighting games on earth, is headed to the Xbox 360 as was revealed by the master list of games at the Tokyo Game Show 2008.
In development by SNK Playmore as Xbox Live Arcade title, the game will be released in the Ultimate Match version, which was also announced as PS2 version at the GCDC 08.

Maybe I'm wrong because I know little about fighting games, I played Street Fighter when it was new, but that's 10 years ago. The game looks like a really refined version of Street Fighter, can it compete with the new one?
Yes, very nice.
What about Street Fighter HD Remix? Does anybody know?
Still in the works (and hands of game balancer David Sirlin)
