Fatal Fury Special, known as Garou Densetsu Special (餓狼伝説ＳＰＥＣＩＡＬ) in Japan, is an improved version of the one-on-one fighting game Fatal Fury 2. It was originally released on the Neo Geo by SNK, then it was ported to the Sega Game Gear by Gai Brain and Aspect in 1994 and to the Sega Mega-CD by Funcom in 1995.

Gameplay

Mega-CD version

Gameplay

Fatal Fury Special is an updated version of Fatal Fury 2. It adds a new combo system, a larger cast of selectable characters, and faster game speed. The graphics differ from the Mega Drive port of Fatal Fury 2 since the two games were ported by different developers.

Characters move with and and crouch with . They can move forward while crouched with (or when facing left). They backstep with (or when facing left). They jump upward with and jump behind and ahead with or . When using a standard control pad, characters can attack with a light punch with , a heavy punch with , a light kick with , and a heavy kick with START . When using a Six Button Control Pad, characters can attack with a light punch with , a heavy punch with , a light kick with , and a heavy kick with . Characters have different attacks depending on whether they are standing, crouching, or jumping. Every fighter has special techniques performed by inputting specific directions with an attack button. The game also introduces Desperation moves, which are powerful special moves that can causes massive damage but can only be used when the character's vitality gauge is low and flashing.

Characters can throw nearby opponents by holding the D-Pad toward the opponent and pressing the heavy punch button. They can block attacks by holding the D-Pad in the opposite direction of the opponent. Blocking while standing guards against high attacks (from a standing or jumping opponent), while blocking while crouched defends against both high and low attacks. While guarding an opponent's attack, characters can counter with an evasion maneuver by pressing the weak punch button, which reduces the damage taken and potentially damages the opponent if within range. Characters become knocked out from being attacked repeatedly; they are uncontrollable and vulnerable in this state but can recover more quickly by rapidly pressing back and forth on the D-Pad along with the attack buttons.

Characters switch between lanes with + on a standard control pad or on a six button control pad. If an opponent is already in a different lane, the character can roll into the other lane with or or perform a low jumping attack across the lanes with LP or LK or a high jumping attack across the lanes with HP or HK . Characters can perform a "powerful blow" with + START on a standard control pad or on a six button control pad, which is an attack that knocks the opponent into the opposite lane. Some stages have objects that can be destroyed when a fighter is thrown through them. Certain stages have hazards in the background plane, such as electrified ropes or a stampede of bulls, and thus the player cannot change planes but can knock the opponent to the other plane to cause extra damage.

There is a single-player story mode that can be played as any character. The player faces ten opponents (and can choose the first opponent), then faces five boss characters (Billy Kane, Axel Hawk, Laurence Blood, Geese Howard, and Wolfgang Krauser). If the player wins every match without losing a round, Ryo Sakazaki from the Art of Fighting appears to challenge the player in a special "Dream Match." There is no dedicated two-player mode, but a second player can enter at any time by pressing START to challenge the first player. Both players have limited continues. There are six difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents (Beginner, Easy, Normal, Hard, Expert, and MVS).

Characters

Move lists assume the player is facing right. If facing left, and should be reversed. P refers to either punch button, while K refers to either kick button.

All of the characters return from Fatal Fury 2, and the four boss characters are now playable in the single-player mode without needing a cheat code. Three characters from the original Fatal Fury return (Duck King, Tung Fu Rue, and Geese Howard). Ryo Sakazaki from the Art of Fighting is a playable character and also appears as a hidden boss.

Characters move with and and crouch with . They can move forward while crouched with (or when facing left). They backstep with (or when facing left).

Characters can throw nearby opponents by holding the D-Pad toward the opponent and pressing the punch button. They can block attacks by holding the D-Pad in the opposite direction of the opponent. Characters have special moves that can be performed with specific button combinations and can also perform Desperation attacks when their vitality gauge is low and flashing.

The "King of Fighters" mode is a single-player mode where the player faces every fighter in the game (with the first opponent being selectable), ending with fights against the boss characters Billy Kane and Geese Howard. If the player wins every match without losing a round, there is an additional final battle against Ryo Sakazaki from the Art of Fighting. There is a Vs Game mode that can be played against any opponent and a Survival Game mode where each player has five fighters and tries to eliminate all of the opposing player's characters. Both modes can be played against computer-controlled opponents and also support two-player battles using a Gear-to-Gear Cable. There are three difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents (Easy, Normal, and Hard).

History

Legacy

The inclusion of Ryo Sakazaki from Art of Fighting and the return of popular characters from the original Fatal Fury, including Geese Howard after his apparent death in the ending to the first game, was the first crossover of its kind in a fighting game and inspired the King of Fighters series.

Versions

The Mega-CD port is missing parallax scrolling and background details (such as the crowds in the stages for Big Bear and Joe Higashi). It also lacks the day/night variations for each stage. It has a Red Book recording of the original Neo Geo soundtrack.

Ryo Sakazaki only appears as a hidden opponent in the arcade version, but he is playable in all of the home versions (including the Neo Geo AES version).
