AS USUAL THE EVENT BROUGHT A LOT OF PEOPLE, SOME WERE SINCE 5 AM OR EVEN THE DAY BEFORE, THE LINE TO GET IN WAS 1000 METERS LONG, BEFORE THE SHOW STARTED THERE WERE SOME VIOLENT INCIDENTS WHEN THE GUYS ON THE LINE STARTED TO THROW THINGS TO THE BY PASSERS AND CARS, ICE CUBES AND ROCKS WERE FLYING, AFTER THAT THE DOORS WERE OPEN AND PEOPLE ACCESS TO THE 4TH FLOOR, THERE WERE ALMOST 15 KOF 2002, AROUND 20 RotD AND OTHER GAMES, ON THE BIG SCREEN A VERY COOL VIDEO WITH THE KOF STORY SINCE 94 TO THE PRESENT WITH CARMINA BURANA THEME AS BACKGROUND WAS PLAYED, THE PEOPLE WENT NUTS REMEMBERING THE GOOD TIMES, THE RECORDING INSIDE THE SHOW WAS PROHIBITED.

NOW, ABOUT THE KOF2002 GAME,THE FIRST IMPRESSION WAS QUITE DISAPPOINTING, IT LOOKS LIKE A KOF 98 BUT WITH BAD "CUT AND PASTE" BACKGROUNDS AND EVEN WORST MUSIC, THE FRAME ANIMATION FOR SOME CHARACTERS ARE COOL, THEY LOOK LIKE GAROU QUALITY, SPECIALLY KIM, OTHERS LIKE VICE LOOKS CUTE, THE VOICES WERE CHANGED, I THINK THEY DID NOT USE THE SAME VOICE ACTORS AND WORST OF ALL ( THE BUILDING ALMOST WENT DOWN) WAS WITH IORI AND KYO INTRO, LAST YEAR EVERYBODY WENT CRAZY, THIS YEAR.... NOTHING HAPPENS :p , THEY DON´T HAVE ANY SPECIAL INTRO, JUST SOME PHARES AFTER DEFEAT.

THOSE ARE SOME PERSONAL IMPRESSIONS, EVEN WHEN THE GAME LOOKS GOOD I FELL LIKE SOMETHING HAVE BEEN MISSING WITH THE YEARS, LETS SEE NEXT YEAR WITH EOLITH OUT OF THE KOF SERIES. <img src="graemlins/spock.gif" border="0" alt="[Spock]" />

I think the backgrounds are very nice, but that's not as important as the character animation, which you mentioned "MOTW" quality. As I said in my earlier report, the animation is smoother than KOF '98, which translates to flawless combos into super moves.

It could also be the screen that you watched/played the KOF 2002 on that didn't impress you. I played it on a super clean screen, so it looked very nice.

When KOF 2002 officially comes out on the MVS, the tough neo crowd will makes it's determination, but KOF 2002 has my vote for the best KOF ever released.

kof 2002 will be bloooooody good

its right what i wanted

absence of eiji and geese aside

music is nothing special from what ive heard
but who cares,
96 will remain the one with best bgs and music

at least its not garbage like in 2001

the game in itself is 98 part 2

no strikers,no ratio system

if you must copy something from capcom,
copy the good stuff at least

cut and paste bgs?
they're very good and the italian one is amazing

cut and paste? they're new

cut and paste?

i hate kim
his new stance is a joke

the quality of the rest of his animations is shit,
but the new stance oooooh its like motw

well,thats not even a compliment so bah

kyo and iori?

yeah,who cares

they arent the main characters since 99

i think they wont make the cut next year

and rightly so

i am tired of about 70 % of the kof cast

OK, No eiji is fuck.
as always.
But the music is great again.
Bg's are nothing special but way better than 01.

I agree!
the flame users should be put to the back for a LONG time....I mean they did a sappy job with k its shows that the flame users have got to go and share the spotlife to some of the current characters to be the main spotlight... fanboys should realise that KOF needs to be revamped by Axing those 3 now!

Damn fireflamers !!!, they are stolen the esence of KOF (crossover of the entire SNK series without SS and LB) for their stupid proposes, I don´t care about the main characters are a flame boy or ice boy but Iori and Kyo didn´t played a important role for years so don´t put the spotlight another time <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" /> .
