King of Fighters XII US Debut Trailer,

sorry if this has been posted before/is old but i just noticed it and looks good to me!

Thoughts? Whats it supposed to be like in comparison to SF IV?

Ripper · 2 Mar 2009 at 20:55

Is that coming out on the PSP?

Margaret · 2 Mar 2009 at 21:02

Would have looked great before Street Fighter IV, not so much now.

malachi · 2 Mar 2009 at 21:03

This is a Ps3 and 360 game only, cant wait for this to come out as I love my KOF games.

No, that would be Ralph.

This game is a nailed on purchase for me, assuming it's got online play of course!

Agreed it looks old gen compared to sf4 but it should still be a good scrap.

It may look "old-gen" to some of you guys, but the fact that this series still stays on track using good ol 'fashioned animated sprites is something of its own, and personally for me they look great.

Besides this game uses the same Arcade hardware that Street Fighter IV is on anyways i.e. Taito Type X².

The backgrounds look awesome. The backgrounds in SF4 are boring.

This year is shaping up to be every bit as good as the last for me. Looking forward to this.

Weebull approves of your sexy hand-drawn graphics.

He is however unfortunate in that KoF is possibly the only fighting series he's worse at than non-Alpha SFs.

Disagree...I much prefer hand drawn. Wish the new street fighter was.

Smit · 3 Mar 2009 at 08:36

Looks good

I have never really got to grips with the KoF series but I will be giving this one a try

bah

looked like him to me

I have KoF '98 downloaded from the HK PS Store, it's still great to play, but it's the PSOne version, so the loading times are annoying and the graphics a bit brutal on the eye. I'm actually looking forward to my fighting stick arriving as much for playing KoF '98 as I am for SFIV!

Epeen fact: I perfected the UK Champ Ryan Hart in the first round of a fight on KoF '98 once, I don't talk about the rest of the match though.

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom best beat em up so far, easily beats SFIV

Shame the game wont see the light of day in the PAL regions. On well, I still have my Marvel Vs Capcom 2

thevet · 3 Mar 2009 at 19:09

i have still got the original cartridge of this game on my neo geo from way back in 1994,even the power of a high end i7 pc can not emulate the brilliant sound of a neo geo properly

I much prefer the artstyle in that game than Street Fighter IV.

At least the Street Fighter characters keep that "Alpha" look to them whilst in 3D cel-shaded which I prefer.
