Always loved how great the water animates in a lot of their stages.

I really love Blazblue's Backgrounds

this one is just insane!
Kof 99's backgrounds and OST are by far the best.

Fun Fact: NeoGeo had no background layers. It was all done with sprites.
Art of Fighting 2, John Crawley's stage.
what is this from?
thx.
Pretty much, the detail, the palette work, the tone, everything has so much love on it.

This one's missing frames. The stall door should open periodically.

Needs more gifs, but ah well. Do any even exist?

Depends on the round.
I wish they could do some Fatal Fury 3 stages, but some of theme are not really possible in Gifs...

The first time I fought Hon Fu, I was absolutly stunned. It was even better with the remix music of the Neogeo CD.

We're in 2013 and nobody never made something to use a gif as a wallpaper?
Yeah it used to be possible, and now it's not...go figure.
Here is a playthrough of Fatal Fury 3 where you can see all the stages. Enjoy !

Too bad we miss the "night" part of round 3 on some of these.

This is fucking sweet, thank you.
I'm cool with this being a yearly thread. Fighting game visual artistry needs more love

Doors should open regardless of the round. It's who is standing around that changes between rounds.

Slightly off-topic but these animated backgrounds really make me think of "cinemagraphs" (aka "animated GIFs as art"):
An HD fighting game with digitized sprites based on real actors and with cinemagraphs as backgrounds could be amazing IMO.

Even if KoF XII was, well, KoF XII, NO ONE can tell me that at the very least Russia and the stadium at night weren't great stages.
Also, the stages of KoF96 forever hold a special place in my heart.
(sadly impossible to show on the gif: the current characters' portraits on the screens)
(let's not forget this one is actually a fucking boat ride)

This one is my favorite:
^That one really is amazing.
Reminds me a lot of Soul Calibur on DC and one stage in SFxT.
The catwalk photographer and the couple dancing cinemagraphs are great too. Sony interestingly have a phone app iirc for making them but it doesn't store it offline or it saves it in a weird way or something.
Check out how well the animation shows the fanning - woman with the green fan on the right. Rest of it isn't quite as meticulously done but still great, probably why the fan is in quite a bright green but again, impressive stuff and really has a great atmosphere for a fight. Is there a video for the stage, you mentioned it was a boat ride?

Por comparission sake, I always love to comparte that bg with the rainy stage from fatal fury, neo geo's first fighter
The difference that 8 years can make in the same hardware is unbelievable

This entire thread is the reason I love 2D graphics more than 3d.
Long live the neogeo.

Hah, and people were hailing the sprite work with Superbrothers as breath-taking. This is the real deal.
I can't check the link in the OP now (it would destroy my phone), but does it have any Cyberbots stages? I remember on the second to last stage of arcade mode (or maybe the last stage? my memory is terrible) you fight on a satellite that starts in space but then starts burning up as it re-enters the atmosphere over the course of the fight. It was fucking awesome.
