    Overall, this game has a lot to live up to with its older siblings in the arcades. The PS2’s D-pad or analogue sticks are always going to struggle in comparison to a proper arcade joystick controller. Read more

    There’s a great game lurking beneath King of Fighters XI’s antiquated façade; it just depends on how hard you’re willing to work to find it, and whether you’re happy to overlook some rather sloppy design errors. Read more

    • Large selection of characters, lots of modes, great multiplayer potential
    • Cheap bosses, very dated appearance, a few needless glitches
