i can't believe there wasn't a topic for this.

anyway, KOF XII is going to be the newest installment to the KOF series. however, unlike the previous KOF games, this will be a true next-gen KOF, as all of the sprites are going to be redone in high definition.
oh and did i mention? there's no 3D ANYTHING in this game. everything is hand-drawn. score one for 2D gaming.
i mean seriously JUST LOOK AT THIS SHIT (incoming screens)

oh yes.

if you consider yourself a true fighting game connoisseur, you'll be getting this.
hell, if you even consider yourself a 2D gamer you're getting this.

What if I consider myself as not much of a KOF player, and the only character I like from the series is Iori? And maybe Terry?

Athena can go die in a hole.

LOOK AT IT

you're gettin it.

I must say just seeing these sprites in motion is worth my money and heck if Metal Slug looks like this one day I think I'll die of happiness. This is why sprites rule.

if i had some extra money

i would buy this

Looking forward to this for a long time.
Updated graphics are yes.

IORI!

Fuck you guys, I'm bumping this.

A lot of new info, most of it being VERY new to you guys.

Be sure to check out those two videos too.

Oh, and here's something interesting...

Check out the KOFXII roster, and the art style specifically... then look at the above website. Notice K' and Mai in the picture? Drawn in the EXACT SAME style?

This could be a hint to them being in the game as well!

This game looks pretty promising

While I never actually played a KOF game i'm probably going to end up getting it to give it a go

arkham asylum, valkyria chronicles, kof XII

these are the games everyone should own

What systems will it be on? I have a very limited choice.

Far as I know 360 and PS3

Watched the Ash combo video, god damn this game looks hot.
Sucks that this won't be released on Wii with a reduced framerate and static backgrounds [like Guilty Gear]



WAIT
DOES THAT SAY "NOW IN ARCADES"
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
BRB, GOING TO NYC AND PLAYING THIS SHIT BEFORE TYVON DOES

well, it's nice to know that. I don't like to play KoF (or any other fighting game), but I really love watching the others playing. But I'm certain I won't see those stuff soon. The nearest arcade (which is... 2 hours away from here?) still has Cruisn' USA as their main machine.
