Although this review is based on the Japanese PS2 version of "World Heroes Gorgeous," better known in the U.S. as World Heroes Anthology, keep in mind that, besides the text and online play, the two versions are identical. What really made up my mind to make this purchase (other than the great price) was the value. On this single PS2 disc you get FOUR games for the price of ONE budget title! Yes, World Heroes, World Heroes 2, World Heroes 2 Jet, and World Heroes Perfect are all represented here in perfect arcade form. I am an old-school gamer; a product of the late '70's, and an enormous fighting game fan, so this was like a dream come true. The controls are perfect, tight and responsive, with an arcade stick or with just the standard PS2 controller. The graphics will stir up a sense of nostalgia, and the music will bring you right back to that old '80's arcade in which you used to hang out. With in-game options such as arranged music tracks and color-editing for all the unique characters this really is a win/win situation. In short, SNK Playmore really has a winning system on their hands: Old school games compiled in an affordable collection. If you consider yourself a serious game player and/or you would like to bring back the old days for a few hours, you will not be disappointed with World Heroes Anthology for the PS2.Read full review
I play world heroes a long time ago when this came to the arcades many people say that this fighting game was just a rip off from street fighter 2 because the two ninjas hanzo and fuuma was doing the same special moves like ryu and ken but different, what i like about world heroes anthology is the fatal match in world heroes because it's a fun mode when playing against friends in versus mode that's what i like about world heroes so i decided to buy the game.
I dig the old school games like this one

As a fan of all Neo Geo games I can tell you that I am very pleased with this collection. All World hero Games on here look and play identical to their arcade counterparts. Very well done by SNK.....Kudos!
