I am a KOF newbie but Ithink this is the best one. I just think it. I have, however seen trailers of the 2D ones and boy, they do look very crappy. I have beated the game several times and I can give you some advices:

Play as those guys, they are the best:
Athena Asamiya
K'
Mai Shiranui
Terry Bogard
Maxima
Ralf Jones
Alba Meira
Soiree Mrira
Lien Neville
Duke

Dont fight those, they are experts:
Kyo Kusanagi
Clark Still
K'
Maxima
Ralf Jones
Chae Lim
Soiree Meira
Lien Neville
Duke

Do not select those, they suck:
Kyo Kusanagi
Seth
Iori Yagami
Yuri Sakazaki
Ryo Sakazaki
Mignon Beart

Go against those, the stink badly:
Athena Asamiya
Iori Yagami
Yuri Sakazaki
Ryo Sakazaki
Leona
Rock Howard
Mignon Beart

I may have repeated characters in diffirent lists but thats because some characters like Kyo Kusanaki are worse when you control them. I play mostly as the better characters such as:
Lien
Duke
Athena
Maxima

I usually fight AGAINST the worse:
Leona
Mignon etc.

Graphics 10
Sound 7.5
Gameplay 9.5
Long lasting 10
Overall 10

Final Verdict:
Nothing wrong with this one except the voices sometimes SUUUUUUUCK and the lips move when they are talking and they do not move when they talk.

Excellent transition from 2d to 3d

I played and beat this game with every character. As you can assume , I am 2D King of Fighters (KoF) series fan, so I might have given Max Impact a little better rating than average Joe, but imagine you have 3d motions almost the quality of Soul Calibur 2, doable plain vanilla combos and really flashy and unrealistic desperation moves which made me laugh and enjoy 2D KoFs. This game might not become famous as Tekken or Virtua Fighter but for me, it was much more enjoyable (and shorter).

King of fighters Maximum Impact 3D, How will it be.

King of fighters have always been known as one of the best 2D fighting games ever, Fans have never been pleased because of the graphics but how the game play has been and it's characters. But this game has something new and different, Something surprising KOF fans. An Snk game in 3D! Don't be mad fans, The graphics are quite acceptable for PS2. Some 3D models look good (The new characters and Terry) And some models look bad( Yuri, Kyo) So far we know there are 4 new characters and with a total of 26, The new characters are Alba, Soiree, Lien neville and mingnon.
So far the gameplay looks like its gonna be a little 1 on 1... It shoud atleast be tag or so. But i hope this game does good because that 3D Fatal fury game was not a hit... But KOF still will be 2D ;-).

Not quite what I expected

This game is not that great, as a KOF fan I'm a little disappointed. I give it three stars because they animated the female fighters pretty good ^_^ otherwise I would have given it two. The gameplay is mediocre and the voice acting is horrific, also their mouths move when they aren't talking. Save your money and stick to the 2D versions.
