The 2nd KOFXII Thread (debuting at AM Show in September)

TaZaR:

Uhh, Goro looks pretty strange on that ingame frame. Like he got inflated like a balloon, strange.
I was also hoped for that, they’ll give him a new outfit, but no.

In the game artwork Goro was always displayed leaning toward chubby muscle in the middle then a solid rock solid abs.

As for the remaining characters, we will have to expect not every team will be complete since there are no real teams in this game. I’m willing to bet that Clark is sacrificed on the limbo alter this year though cause the only way Mai isn’t in this game is if they are having “issues” getting the bounce right.

I always figured K was on the anniversary logo because of 02UM

I’m fairly sure he won’t be in this without his team.(and I heard he’s fairly unpopular save for a bunch of fanboys)

My bet is on Clark and Yuri for the last two slots, to round off their teams

Yeah, I know, but his pose on that frame is still wierd. But I don’t wanna judge it overall, I wanna see some other sprites of him first…

If I can recall it correctly, he is popular, but not as much as SNK thought he will be, when they created him.

Saisyu_Kusanagi:

This is SNK’s Year. I am so back into KOF and Samurai.

My list for 2009

The King of Fighters XII
Samurai Sprits: Sen
KOF Maximum Impact: Regulation A 2

ST HD Remix is repeat nostalga and ST4 is a glossed ST:EX.
New system and new graphic style, that is what I need.

Ryu is S teir already? With out parry it is the same old SSF’IIX I have a fireball and you don’t crap. Not going back.

Wow, there’s so much fail in this post it’s hard where to begin. But I’ll just one question: Have you actually played Samurai Spirits Sen? Cause pretty much everyone I know who’s played it says it’s a thunderously mediocre Soul Calibur clone.

re: XII

Last remaining characters: Betting on K’ and Mai.

Knot8 · 2008-11-29T00:01:28.000Z

I hope K’ makes it am a KOF noob but I remember when I used to play at the arcade in mexico I loved that guy.

MUSOLINI:

yeah almost like sf… i wonder if well ever see a new hd 2d SS game on this hardware. the didnt do it on the h64, they owe me, i mean us.

Looking back at all the beautiful stages, effects and music SamSho had, it’d only be fair that SNK would make a new 2d one. :wonder:

Mycah_Leonhart:

Hell if we’re capping off teams, fuck Clark can we get Whip back?!?!

It’ll make up for this bullshit ass Kyo we got this year.

He doesn’t need chain punches to survive. It’s just extremely mind boggling to me because almost every version of Kyo that had his old move set was far better than the one with the new move set. So can you actually explain what makes him so shitty?

P.S. Whip over Clark? GET SERIOUS!

Vicioustale · 2008-11-29T01:49:04.000Z

I’d bet on Mai, SNK loves titties how could they give up a chance to make some HD titties?

I believe K’ will be in for story purposes, I’m no expert on KOF canon but he seems pretty important, but then again Capcom made Street Fighter 4 without Alex.

Cronopio · 2008-11-29T01:56:28.000Z

Anakron:

Fuck yes, Whip is a very unique character unlike KOF grappler #20.

lol, Clark is WAYYY more original than Whip.
Clark was the 2nd full scale grappler in all of KOF, wayy back in 1995 and 1996, before grapplers got hype. Clark is much more original than Whip ever will be

2 pages too slow man.

ReXXXSoprano · 2008-11-29T04:20:12.000Z

Throwback Kensou is too fuckin beast. They finally get around to putting shine on Psycho Solider. Just do ya self a favor and play that game on mute. That song is good for 5 minuntes, in which afterwards you’ll rip your ears off. Now show me HD Kula and I’m good.

98 Kyo>Old Kyo

Old Kyo is actually not shit, but I just don’t like him. When I said Old Kyo was ass, I was over exaggerating. When I thought about it, I use Kusanagi in 2002 sometimes and he IS old Kyo with a different voice and persona. So I’m like damn…I contradicted myself on SRK

In 2002, Kusanagi/95 Kyo is better than normal Kyo

I also find 98 Kyo more fun to play. Although alot of the things are similar, its his final showdown super (QCFx2+P in 98) that really makes him the best Kyo to me. I do honestly believe 98 Kyo is better than 95 Kyo.

Low B -> Low A into super for 50% life is the shit.

comoesa · 2008-11-29T05:55:11.000Z

wow im really loving th fact that chars actually have different sprites now.

SNK_Fan · 2008-11-29T06:14:39.000Z

Good weekend for KOF XII news. Looks like Team BUFFETKILLER for me. (Goro, Ralf, and Raiden)

Also nice to see Chin and Kensou.

It’s 10AM in Japan. Isn’t the KOF event going on right now?

Not only was she a complete bitch in 2k2, they made her utter shit in XI which just goes to show that they don’t know what the hell they’re doing with her. So why not keep her the hell out?

Clark on the other hand, is a well established character THE KoF grappler. Such a shame they put Vice in CVS2.

That super and aragami chains had retarded good priority in 98. :mad:

rukawa_kaede · 2008-11-29T07:04:33.000Z

Clark is the definition of the fast grappler. that’s what made him so unique

danomighty · 2008-11-29T07:33:23.000Z

2 spots?

I hope they bring back my girl Malin!
