while I didn't play both versions of KOF2000, I can assure that both, graphics and gameplay are exactly the same as the MVS. so no slowdowns (which I heard the DC had), no missing animations, no difference in combo timings and no shitty control (like in KOF 99 for PSOne and DC)

in short, PS2 KOF2000 is a perfect port. most people who bash it actually didn't play it.

the extras on PS2 are the new strikers (8 I think) and the KOF 94-99 intros ..... there is no english option in Jap version of this port (don't know about DC)

I heard the PS2 version of 2k1 will have extra characters, is that true?

I doubt it.

I think magic-box mentioned that by mistake. the only extra Plamore did mention was the 3D backgrounds.

DC version had slowdowns, loading, and random faults here and there. PS2 version is nice and not goofed

The PS2 has less memory than the Dreamcast so it can't look better.
The DC has 26MB RAM total which includes VRAM, Main RAM, & Sound RAM while the PS2 has 38MB RAM total including VRAM, Main RAM, & Sound RAM.

How does the PS2 have less memory than the Dreamcast?

Main memory is more important than VRAM or sound memory.PS2 has 32 MB of main memory and DC has 16 MB.

I'm just curious to see the new backgrounds in 2k1.

That alone makes it worth the purchase.

To others, VRAM is important while RAM is nothing.
