"SNK NEO-GEO has released new details of their upcoming MVS arcade fighting game RAGE OF THE DRAGONS.
This game will feature a PARTNER CHANGE SYSTEM:
there's a TAG GAUGE under the life bar; when the gauge is full, you can swap the current character with another one in the background; during the character switch, the swap-out character will become invincible, while the swap-in one will enter the stage with an attack, which gives you a chance to counterattack the opponent.
In addition the game features a FREE CANCEL SYSTEM, which enables you to execute a special attack which blows the opponent to mid-air, then you can use air combo to attack.
There's also a SPECIAL ATTACK GAUGE at the bottom, when it reaches 2 or more levels, you can execute the powerful DUPLEX ATTACK, where 2 characters of your team will attack with team combos.
During the first battle of each stage, if you press and hold all 4 buttons for a few seconds, your character will SURRENDER and you will lose the fight. However, in the 2nd fight, your second charcter will have much higher life energy than usual, but you will not be able to use PARTNER CHANGE SYSTEM and DUPLEX ATTACK, because of the 1st character's surrender."

It looks like the tag system is like Marvel vs. Capcom 1.Which is pretty good to me.

I always liked the tag-team feature in MvsC, looks like it would work good in this game as well.

Every time I see something new about this game, it just makes me want it more and more.

Nice sig ajsega!

I really like the 'new' system from this game, the First Impact and Team Duplex, and of course, the graphics.

But it seems to me that the animation (movement) isn't as smooth as MotW, not even KoF2001.

Do you guys think so?

Well from what I've seen in the movies, it's shaping up to be a great game...and the tag system can only be a good thing.

Seems that SNK are making their own version of MvC...in other words catching up with Capcom arf arf arf :D
