    Street Fighter IV Volt now has some serious competition, and it looks like the future is pretty bright for fighting games on the App Store.

    The King of Fighters might very well be the new king of iOS fighters, thanks to its massive roster and inclusion of excellent online play.

    The King of Fighters-i 2012 is the best fighting game for iOS devices; mainly thanks to the control system,fully optimized, but the contents are shining as well, with great animations and exciting online features.

    The game has some great new features, and it is still a hell of a fighting game. I just don't think there is enough new stuff for someone who owns the previous version to run out and get it right away.

    The King of Fighters-i 2012 is a must have for those who do not own the first release though less of a necessity if you already have KOF-i; even still, it's worth grabbing for the online competitive play and significant roster increase.

    A brilliant revamp of the original that ups the ante for iOS brawlers, King of Fighters-i 2012 is only let down by its slightly laggy online bouts.

There are a lot of things that are somewhat buried, like how every character has 5 sample combos to try in training mode. The online is a little bit wonky, but when it works, it works great. If you like fighting games, give SNK your money. They've clearly earned it.… Full Review »

It is one of the most under-rated games on the iPhone/iPad. With 32 diverse characters (not including the optional dlc versions of Kyo and Iori), fast paced gameplay, extremely easy controls and very good online and bluetooth connection (occasional lag here and there). The game is also challenging, while not being too difficult, yet not so easy it isn't fun. If you're a fighting game fan, wanting to try out a fighting game on an ios system, then buy this game. It game is definitely worth your money.… Full Review »
