That second girl is interesting. Though she looks like she'd fit more in an RPG or a sci-fi fantasy action adventure. In a way, her *ahem* magical look almost makes me think she has a story relation to Mignon or something.

#1: Rock Howard and May Lee's lovechild... ew. :eek:

#2: Holy Morrigan Batman! SNKP must be getting back for making Maki look too much like Mai!

#3: Kyo's latest makeover courtesy of Dick's Sporting Goods

#4: Iori's latest makeover courtesy of Vlad Tepes

Why do they look like Tekken1 pre rendered character profiles?

Do SNK realise its 2005 now? those CG models wouldn't pass to advertise a PS1 game.

SNK´s 2D sprites belong in 1996. So why did you expect better form the CG?

Also, you can see on the official site that Billy's in the game, as well.

Those new characters don't seem to fit in KoF at all to me... Especially the second one. They don't even look like fighters... Especially the second one, again.
Even though Mai, Yuri and stuff are bimbos, they still kinda look like they're there to fight.

I didn't care for most the the models in KoF:MI, but here's hoping for a better game in the future.

MI 1 left a bad taste in my mouth and I am not very optimistic for MI2.

The logo seems very un-KOF like. The butterfly wings make it look like a KOF Dating Sim. I'd rather see one of those then another MI. ;)

Quoted for truth.

Falcoon's character designs are fucking horrible. Thank god he is not working in the main series anymore.

i like the 1st character actually, looks decent and very creative (for the most part), the 2nd character looks like Kula+Morriagan+Pixies, Kyo's new outfit i guess is for the anime's promotion somewhat//.. while Iori... he's still iori...

and oh, look at this...

MI 3 will be for the 360 and PS3. It's likely this will either be PS2 and X-Box only.

At any rate, I really dig the design of the second character (Luise/Louise). Looks very detailed and mystical, and different from any other KOF character. Reminds me a bit of Last Blade/Shadow Hearts for some reason, since she has a bit of that 19th/very early 20th century look to her. Not too excited about the first one though.

I'm thinking it may be the other way around... that the cartoon is for the promotion of the Max Impact game series. Usually that's how it goes; a tv show created to advertise something they want you to buy (Gundam merchendise, Naruto merch, etc. etc.), since they don't get any money just for you turning on the tv. Not to mention, all the MI characters seem to be in the show.

I was parusing the unused art gallery in KOF 99 and that jacket design for Kyo as well as the leather jacket sprite of him are in there.

Kind of wierd. They are just recycling old unused designs for new stuff.

Oooooh a rendered Billy...

My motivation to play 3D games is coming back, probably thanks to the returning popularity of Billy. Nothing wrong with that. :D

The second new character looks alright but doesn't belong in a kof tournament. Some one mentioned it before she'd make a great scifi/rpg character.

Dear Robi15,
You got to attend TGS? Did you take all the pictures on that maardu web site?
Can you verify that this picture showing Yuri tigertass.net/~maardu/kof2maximpact.jpg is from Maximum Impact 2 please?
Thanks.
