The back hop, short jump, and long jump are still in. To begin with, the control scheme of the Real Bout games has been abandoned in favor of the standard four attack buttons – two for punches, and two for kicks – and plane switching is gone entirely. So yeah, it’s absurdly complex, but it’s still less intimidating in that respect than Virtua Fighter or Street Fighter III. It takes several elements from both series, improves most of them, and introduces a multitude of other features that work to give players as many, if not more, options than in any other 2D fighter. While the design is still very similar to prior Fatal Fury installments, the combo system and overall feel of the game more closely resembles The King of Fighters than anything else. There are only twelve playable characters (fourteen in the home versions), an extremely small roster for its time, but it’s such a great game that this can easily be overlooked.

Kain resented Geese and forced Marie out of his estate. Several years earlier, Geese had been romantically involved with Kain’s sister, Marie. Heinlein, who has risen to power as crime boss of post-Geese Howard Southtown. Overwhelmed with guilt, Terry raises Geese’s son Rock, hoping to prevent him from following in his father’s footsteps. The intro recounts how Geese denied Terry’s aid and fell to his death from the top of his tower. Garou: Mark of the Wolves takes place in the then near future of 2008. And both represent the pinnacle of 2D fighting game design for both companies. Both greatly overhauled the play mechanics and also introduces a completely new character roster, resulting in a game that feels significantly detached from its predecessors. For starters, both have some of the most gorgeously smooth animation ever seen in a 2D fighting game. Garou: Mark of the Wolves is often compared to Street Fighter III for a number of reasons.
