I have known about this for awhile but just saw a vid up on gametrailers which really shows how 2d graphics can still shine in this HD age. In fact, they look all the better because of it.

 

here is a low quality version from Youtube for you lazy people:

 

 

The MUCH NICER higher quality version requires a trip to gametrailers

Yeah, I realised after my excitement about this died down. Bit annoyed that there are quite a few characters lacking like Rock, King, K' actually there is a whole load (and yet it still reaches 20 characters...). But I was wondering if this is the roster available for the arcade, with more being available for home consoles. And then there is the unlocking of characters to think about. Although whats the point of unlocking old characters :wtf:

Maybe even dlc characters but that is just extremely low.

Dude, what the hell?

 

You cannot compare SF2 HDR to KoFXII. SF2 uses double upscaled character models depending on what resolution you use. KoFXII is completely new from the ground up, they didn't have to fit to the old animations and hit boxes. These two games cannot be compared.

 

And for the record, HD Remix looks pretty damn nice even if you can see some pixelation in the models when the game is upscaled to 1080p.

Kim is pretty good character to use. Anyway, I doubt this'll be downloadable at least not for 360... Its bound to have a huge file size. SNK will probably get some more characters drawn and release it for consoles Q4.

Really annoying as I used to use vanessa and king. Some of the easier/more fun characters to play as. Whats really amazing though is how screenshots really dont do this game justice:

Sigh.... another reason on my ever growing list to console HD. But its nice to see down quarter circle punch games are making their return. Not into that wii flailing your arms about rubbish.

These games were more full of the half-circle then forward/back button presses. Was really painful on the ol' fingers.

fuck me sideways this game is pretty.

 

What be the crack between this and SFIV then, genre fans?

 

I would say that KOF is more hardcore than the SF series, or at least, just less accesible. Lot's of commands were very much more demanding than SF. And I think KOF was the game to give birth the the phras "Boss Syndrome" as many of it's boss characters make Seth look like a walk in the park. That's all I can be bothered to remember at this point. Oh, that and the story is many times more ridiculous than SF and the cast from game to game is gargantuan.

Looks like this game has been pushed back a month or so, GAME are the only ones listing it. And they have the release date as 28/8/2009.

 

KoF12

 

Yet it gets release in the US on Tuesday........Looks like VG+ will come in handy again.

Haha. How many beat-em-ups is that on your play list now?

erm....BlazBlue, SSF2HDR, SFIV, Battle Fantasia, UFC, and MvC2 next week.

Oh, and Garou MotW, Fatal Fury and Samurai Showdown on the eggbox.

 

You simply can't have enough fighting games.

 

There is definitely an over-saturation of the market at the moment, its hard enough just learning the intricacies of just one fighter. But meh, its my favourite genre.

I want KOF, I really do. Heck I even made this damn topic. But I have a) too many games and b) a few of them are fighters! And I want tekken more so something has to give...of course that means nothing if I see it at silly prices....

Good news dude, it seems the copy game world people have got hold of this and confirmed it is region free. Looks like this one is going in my 360 along with my SF4 and Battle Fantasia.

 

I've just placed my order, should have it weds or thurs WOOO!
