Would you buy KOF if it went 3d in 2002???

Would you even think about buying this game if it went 3D??? What if it had graphics better than Dead or Alive 3, on the infamous XBOX? Would it be the same? Completly different? Not KOF?

Personally, I think it would have major potential to kick ass if it wasn't done cheap and crappy like tekken 4 with its awful movement dynamics and one dimensional button mashing gameplay. It could be a damn good KOF. And seeing Leona in full 3D with the attention to character detail like in doa3...

Could be sweet, you have to admit...

But then again they could majorly screw it up *cough!!*tekken4*cough!!*

I'm not exactly begging for a 3D upgrade to KOF. If an upgrade were to ever happen to this game, I would like it to stay in 2D.

If SNK ever decided to pick up and move out of MVS land, they should really consider the already established NAOMI arcade architecture as apposed to making their own new system. Not only would NAOMI be enough for all of SNK's 2D needs, but it would also allow new gamers to enjoy the bliss that is KOF or any other SNK game.

NAOMI is econimical, easy to program for, and already has an established stable of 2D fighters.

Going 3D would ruin KOF's vibe. Keep it 2D.

Would the Neo Geo have the power to handle an AES cart with 3d gameplay?

I doubt that there is any way to make the Neo push a game like KoF into the 3D relm.

I would definitly be interested in seening KoF 3D but I would prefer that the 2D games continue to churn out at the same time.

It would probably turn out something like Street Fighter EX series (which capcom doesnt make anyways).

It would either be pretty good like that, but not as popular, or suck.

SNK's 3-D hyper games arent bad at all, but some of their other 3-D stuff like Warriors Rage 2 on PSX is pretty awful.

I'd rather see them do Garou Wild Ambition 2, than a 3-D KOF.

The question isnt whether or not we would buy the game...it's would we like to see the series go in that direction, and at least for me, the answer is no.>>>

I don't think SNK has the money to make a 3-D KOF, lol. Their not even making KOF 2001 on their own.

It would be nice to see on the Hyper, if they could make it move look like Warrior's Rage and move like Wild Ambition. I'm not sure if the board can handle it though.

The hypers dead, deader than the NGPC (thats really dead).

So we'll never know what they could have done on it.

I'm sure you've all seen Dead or Alive 3! What would you think if the graphics were like that or virtual fighter 4? Would you still be opposed to buying the game.

Nope.

Don't care for 3D games, plain and simple. There's only a handful I've ever really liked, and those are few and far between.

I'd much prefer it to stay in the realm of 2D.

I ve never seen a good Fighting 3d-game for the moment, and i think there is a reason: The game play isn't as good as in Fighting-2D games.
Since the begining of the new generation of console, there was only one good Fighting game: Guilty gear X <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

I love FF:WA for the PSX(Only game I own for that system minus the system)
I would'nt have a problem with 3D as long as it has that SNK style!!
-BB

Only a graphics junkies(and Capcom whiners) wanted SNK to pull the plug of 2D so it can go on 3D style.

Why do people always complain about wanting SNK to make graphic upgrades? This bores me...

SNK 3D games are ok.(Thanks to Akira's Street Fighter EX2 plus for tweaking the gameplay of 2D fighters in 3D land)

I'd buy dog shit if was to support SNK.

If KOF went 3D it would be a totally different game. However, if a game like this was produced it would have the potential to attract the 3D fighter fans. People who enjoyed games like DOA or Tekken would probably like it. But IMO, some of the SNK gamers wouldn't go for the idea of a 3D KOF. It would be kind of interesting to see how the game would turn out. I wonder what system the game would come to. I'd say the chances of a game like this being produced are pretty small. KOF should stay 2D. They shoudln't mess with a good thing.

Most 2D to 3D transitions don't work i mean the hyper games are good but do not come close to there 2D counter parts..........although the thought of Mai Dead or Alive 3 Style is very very VERY tempting <IMG SRC="smilies/drool2.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/drool.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

Fuck this idea. There's enough 3D bullshit to go around. I love SNK games because they are the epitome of how design ethic would have evolved has the accursed PlayStation never reared its ugly head and made 3D the current paradigm. If I want a 3D fighter, I'll wait for Soul Calibur 2. Let SNK keep it real by staying 2-FUCKING-D.

NO.

IT WOULD BE SHIT. END OF STORY.

I'd give it a try!
I mean,together with 2001 we have 8 games in the 2D realm-really time for something new!
Especially with that kind of quality graphics.
It hadn't even to be DOA3-visuals as in part 2 or soul calibur would do!
And if that doesnt work,go back to 2D basics-they won't run away... <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

I think a 3D KOF would be cool if done Soul Calibur style.

KoF 2002 really dosen't need to go in the 3d direction. 3D fighters tend to be more confusing and not as simple and direct as 2D fighters are. Plus SNK has the KoF series in 2D down pat, a graphic upgrade in 2D would be nice though.

If it was good, I'd buy it.

Unlike some people on this board, I'm not allergic to 3D games - if it plays well, that's all that matters.

Personally, I'd like to see 3D arenas and cel-shaded characters a la Jet Grind Radio in the 2002 installment. Make it pretty, but retain the general art style.

No. With 100% absolute certainty, no, I would not buy into a 3D KOF.

That's not to say that 3D is a suck-ass genre that should be gotten rid of as soon as possible, but it has it's place. For example, the Resident Evil games wouldn't have no where near the impact they do had they been done in 2D. Panzer Dragoon is another series that I couldn't imagine in 2D.

But where games like KOF really shine is in gameplay. Who can say there has been a 3D fighter that can hold up to ANY good 2D fighter in gameplay? Sure, the graphics can be pretty in 3D, you can get all the wonky camera angles going on, but where's the fun-factor? Dead or Alive 3, from what I got to play, while looking awfully nice, still was a turd in the gameplay department compared to games like KOF, Garou, Real Bout, etc.

I have a buddy that loves to go round and round with me over the "advantages of 3D fighters over 2D fighters", and always, as predictably as stupidity out of Adam Sandler, he says "It's all about timing. You have deeper realms to take into account when you fight in 3D, so of course no 3D fighter can have the moves that a 2D fighter does." And I'm usually like "So fucking what?! I play games to have fun. I want reality, I go fight in real life. I want fun, I play games."

2D is a tried and true genre with fighters. To see KOF get basturdized (as in get gutted like a fish) to make it fit into 3D, it would literally make me hate SNK for allowing it to happen. The hand-drawn beauty of the series, the gameplay and funfactor, no, it would not translate well at all to 3D.

And besides, if the main reason you want to see a 3D KOF is to see a 3D Mai, just go rent an Asian girl porno, use your imagination, and leave 2D KOF alone! <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Don't care about asian porn-I WANT MAI 3D!! <IMG SRC="smilies/drool2.gif" border="0">
