I use to like the KOF series... but they have been rather disappointing since XI. Some of the classic titles that I still like & play is Garo: Mark of the Wolves and Capcom vs SNK 2. (Well, some SNK in it) I hope someday SNK will get around doing another Fatal Fury or collaborating with Capcom again to make Capcom vs SNK 3. And please... bring back Geese!
There's KOF XIII. Go play that.
Odin's beard! I'm so glad someone else is rocking on Magician Lord. That music for the first stage is so good.
