Garou: Mark of the Wolves coming to the US? Rated by ESRB photo

You might have known that Japanese Xbox 360 owners were getting a version of the 1999 SNK game Garou: Mark of the Wolves, but now an update from the ESRB webpage points to a US version coming soon.

We got our hopes up after we heard from a Microsoft Japan press conference that the game was coming to the Xbox 360 in Japan this year. Now, the Fatal Fury series fighting game was just rated Teen by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board. Many series fans will tell you that this is the pinnacle of the series, so it's great news that this favorite has been rated and is probably being prepared for US release.

Of course, an ESRB rating isn't a confirmation, but I think it's good enough. And, since E3 is only weeks away, we expect to hear more about the title very soon. 

SNK fans, how pumped are you?

BRB changing pants!

This is great news. Now lets cross our fingers for online play. MotW is an awesome game. Graphics and gameplay still hold up even today. I'm super excited.

I'm a total whore for Mark of the Wolves. That said, I'd be more pumped if this were coming to PS3 as I don't own a 360. Luckily, I have Garou on Dreamcast, 2df and NeoDS.

Well, I've got the DC version, and no 360, so I'm not totally excited.
But congrats to all those who've never played it before and own a 360! It's amazing!

I already own this game, but I'd definitely be interested in playing online. As excited as I am, I sure would like a new HD 2D SNK fighter to play with...

I'd be more interested in Last Blade 2. But I'll be all over KoF98UM and KoF2k2UM when they come out. Wouldn't mind some World Heroes 2 action either. STREET FIGHTER ALPHA 3 HDR DAMMIT.
