(More customer reviews)Let me start out by saying I had this game on the original Xbox and loved it. SNK makes awesome fighters, especially the KOF series. I sold my Xbox and all the games a few years ago when I went off to college. A few months ago I picked up a 360 Elite and decided to get my fighters' collection going again. Backwards compatibility was one of the selling points, and the Xbox website has this game as listed 360 compatible. Silly me to just confide in that alone. But after all, my Street Fighter Anniversary works perfectly on my 360, so I expected nothing different for this game. Well, the KOF 2002 disc is VERY glitchy. Parts of backgrounds glitch in and out and the arms and legs of characters disappear during gameplay. There are grids that appear over top of the characters. The KOF 2003 disc is completely unreadable. At first, I thought I just had defective software. I drove over to my friend's house who still has his original Xbox and both discs played perfectly. After searching the web, I came across other people who've had the same problem. There is even a Wiki page dedicated to how well each original Xbox game plays on the 360. I wish I had done my research first rather than blindly believe what the Xbox website showed.
Some people may find it unfair for me to rate the game so low when it is an awesome game but just not compatible with the 360. This is how I see it; I am reviewing the overall product in its entirety; KOF 2002/2003 on Xbox is advertised as being compatible/ playable on the 360 by Microsoft themselves. I bought the game on this pretense. It proved to be false, and since I no longer have an original Xbox, this game is no good to me. I still rated it 5 stars for fun since it is in and of itself an awesome game, and if Microsoft were true to their word and it was compatible, I would've given it 5 stars overall.
For anyone who does have an original Xbox and is a fighting game fan, I'm sure you already have this game and know how sweet it is. And if you decide to get a 360, hold on to your original Xbox 'cause 360 'backwards compatibility' is a joke.
