Now that I am somewhat settled (until this weekend when I start moving out of my folks house) I have been playing a lot.
Neo Geo Battle Coliseum: Not as in depth as King of Fighters, but really FUN. I like the method of getting the hidden characters in this better than KOF, and I love the mix of characters as well. Terry, as usual, is the shit and my chosen gun, but I love mixing up that second slot. Fun game, and well worth $20, but don't get it before KOF 11, because that game is amazing.
KOF 11: Awesome. One of the best 2-d fighters in years and better than most I have ever played. It's not third strike, but nothing is. Oswald, Terry, and K or Hayate are the team of choice, and Oswald's Leader Special is tremendous. Some of the challenges are crazy hard, but they really add replay value because of the difficulty.
The rest are all on my Mame emulator:
Garou: Mark of the Wolves: the contiuation of the Fatal Fury story, basically. If you love SNK games, like me, you will love this. I stay away from Terry, because I use him in every other game, but the characters in this game are weird and fun. I have a hard time getting to far with this one, but I am able to keep my fight level around AA-S, so that is something.
Marvel vs. Capcom: It is what it is. Fun, fast paced, I usually play this when I have 10-20 minutes to kill and just want to have some fun. Wolverine and Spidey or Ryu are fun, but I like to throw in Hulk or Cap as well.
G.I. Joe: A run and gun game, but fun for Joe fans. There is no difference between the characters, but Duke or Roadblock are the call due to my love of them in the comics. I hope with the movie that someone will release an "Ultimate Alliance" type G.I. Joe game and do the series right.
