I patiently await to hear what goes down.
Man I can't believe this, KOF 2003 is very fun to me and I would love to see how things progress.

But lots of people will be pissed if it happens
I love the tag system.
I find your avatar hilarious, even though I don't agree with what it stands for.
this game will be more rehash. the sprites should be kof2k3 standard.
I don't like the colours or design they are esing with the title. the art is not so interesting either. looks like fan art.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Correct! That is indeed Hiroaki's artwork.
Man, first he gets to draw the cover to the KOF Fighting Evolution (10th Anniversary) artbook, then he gets to provide illustrations for KOF '94: Re-Bout, and now he (probably) is in charge of illustrations for KOF XI? I say it's about time. Hiroaki is (IMO) SNKP's most underrated artist (just look at his work on KOF EX2 or any of his miscellaneous KOF illustrations- all featured in the KOF F.E. artbook, and you'll see why).
bezzlebubble, I look forward to whatever you have to report on KOF XI (unless they give Shingo and King the boot again, which I hope they don't).

Yeah, I'm expecting rehash, too. And the art is simply horrible, the worst in KOF, IMO.
The plain white one looked better. I know that one was only for registering purposes, but that logo idea looks a lot better and cleaner in white.
A cheap ass reference to KOF03 for sure

Wow, I can't wait to know what they are going to do with this one... *crosses fingers* 
so soon...who would have thought?
i absolutely cannot wait to hear about this new episode
after all,this is the first "true" post-mvs kof
it's funny,
but everytime a new snkp game is announced on the AW
i'm like...what the fuck it can't be true ??!
i suppose i still haven't gotten over the fact the neo days are over
it's kinda sad for me,really

It would be a shame if this game was a rehash. They have had around 2 years to make this game great and up to current 2D standards. I just can't stand the games playing great, but looking horrible. I will get the port reguardless though, just for the Tag System.

I actually like the art. It's more... modern, I guess.
Oh well, I can't wait for more details.
I'm an arcade player, anyways. The system it's on has no effect on me.

isn't it funny how things are always changing and all?
i've turned into fucking gandhi in a way,
always defending playmore and these new games
the rest of the world has turned into me ???!!
because yeah,the only atrocious game made by playmore was chaos
noise made matri and rage,yuki the sspirits,playmore 2001 ( sorta ) 2002 and 2003
and well,they kofs and samurais specially...they're tops...
ports aren't good because they're never like the real deal
playmore and snk always had ( and still have ) this bad habit of altering / adding stuff
not good unless you're a casual gamer who couldn't care less if billy's fwd+A has been toned down
then again,casual gamers don't buy 2d fighting games......right?
what's the point of buying a port of an arcade game if then timing for the moves,combos,etc are all different?
anyway,i could afford neo geo games
i suppose i might get myself 60 dollars ports,so i don't see what you mean by "money hidden somewhere"
i want an aw,though
BADLY

it'll be an interesting ride from here on out with the AW, that's for sure.
i have no real feelings about kof xi either way, except that it will be cool to see how bad they nerf duo long this time.

hmm
This is SNKP's best artist. And you, yeah you with the face, quit being negative about SNKP.
SVC Chaos: fun single player. crappy multiplayer, but I know quite a few people who rock out on it single player. Nice sprites, good music, alright backgrounds. It's a fairly average fighter.
KOF Neowave: just a port of 2002 with better graphics? No, there are the three seperate style systems via CVS2 and the backgrounds actually animate well and we've all heard the great music from that game. That game has all the characters of 2002, but trade out 2 or 3 and add in 5 extra. Plus, the ps2 port is going to have EVEN MORE. There is actually a lot to Neowave.
Samurai Shodown 0/S. Awesome game. Lots of touched up/new sprites, and special was just an upgrade with more bosses...hmm...what other game did that? Fatal Fury 2!
KOF 2002 is great to play competitively. 2003, i think we all can agree, is a decent game. Really, Playmore is not such a bad company. They are a typical small Japanese game company. You expect them to have the budget of say, a Konami game. I've used more hours of my life playing KOF 99 than Metal Gear Solid, and I don't even like 99 that much.

i agree with you 99%! the only quibble i have is with your ss0/spc call. special is near perfect imo (mainly due to the balancing which is spot on) and owns 0 for free if you ask me.

i'm just saying, for an AW, its like 12345661234567$ right now since it's so new. I'm waiting for the price to fall to a point where i can actually feel good about buying a board, and maybe getting it consolidized.
: :dreams: :
i dunno tho...SNKPlaymore needs to make a breakout hit again...we need another killer app like Samurai Shodown was on NG...
NeoEsZ said:
sorry,but no
it's not about the fact chaos is broken in 2p mode
many fighters are shitty in 2p but shine in 1p mode
samurai spirits series until 0 / sp for example,hehehe
problem is,those chaos new sprites are alright until you see them in motion
and the bgs are super ugly
there are exceptions ( demitri,red arremer and his stage ) but chaos remains a shot in the foot
the entire vibe from the game is like
"hello,i'm 30 % finished but they decided to release me anyway,go figure"
aaaanyway,
let's keep our collective fingers crossed,yeah?
people who are into kof for the gameplay are gonna love it no matter what
everybody else is going to complain like crazy
it's like a non written law
