SNK VS CAPCOM: My opinion..

After seeing the videos thus far, I dont know why, but I am getting into this game.
I think Bison looks great, cause it didnt appear he had much standing animation, but when he started up, just...WOW! They got a light saber type sound for the psycho power idea.. Not to bad. I can dig that, im not big on star wars, but thats cool to me.

I cannot believe how buff saget looks, which saddens me more on how cool a boss Krauser would have been in this game.
I like the fact they didnt ruin Iori in it!

My qualm is how fast some of the voices are, take terry's buster wolf for example. Its nice to have a minor complaint again..
Music wise they are going with a more serious undertone, instead of the usual predictable themes. I like that, cause its a stab in the dark. Some themes even scream of Ikari style sound..

I gotta admit I am loving this one Roman/Greek style bg with the ionic columns.. Looks fab..
Playmore is slowly getting its shit together.
Its starting to show a bit more with each release. I'm cool with a new look, and some redone characters. SOME ACTUAL ACTIVITY IN THE WORK AREA.

I am a tough and at times a biased critic game wise, (Ask charlie for a example)
I am finding myself with that feeling that I get when I know a games gonna be good, or at least decent at this point. like F said: "Its a simplistic engine"
This brings back the SSF2T/X days for some of us. I think that competition is gonna be insane for SVC. Now will some fucker upload a Shiki vid already?

I might just get off my ass and go back to arcades before I buy me one of these..

i dont have many qualms.
the only one being that hugo is just a huge target.
since i play alot of him and grapplers in general.
the voices do strike me as strange too.
still looking forward to this though.

I dig it as well.

Everything is looking pretty damn good in my eyes, nice BG's, character line-up ( Shiki... drool_2 ), fluid animation, distinct character interactions, great sound effects, but the music is...bleh.

Most important part: The gameplay

I like the slower old-school style of play I've seen so far, it makes for a nice change back to the days of old.

All-in-all, I'm looking forward to it myself.

To me this game looks amazing.
I feel that:

Music is good.
Animation is amazing.
Pre-Fight convos are awesome.
Character line up is good.
Backgrounds are sparse and feel isolated; that's great.

but...

Interface looks lame.
Could use MORE backgrounds.
Would've loved to see redrawn SNK sprites.

That's about it.
I too feel this game is leaps ahead of previous Playmore offerings; hopefully things will only get better.

I'm very optimistic about the game and the newer vids conferm it. I am impressed with the way things are turning out and cant WAIT for preorders to open up so I can get my grubby paws on this baby! I havent been this excited about a neo release since 98!

I like it too, but I wish they would had hyped up the intro a lil' more .

Looks great to me. I cant wait to play it. I love the way Ryu and Ken look. It has made me play alot more CVS2 in anticipation of its release.

I can't wait till SVC comes out, I'm sure it's not going to suck and I support any and all 2d fighting games, as imo there just aren't enough of them these days, let alone good ones as SVC seems to be.

Although the bar has indeed been raised by the former SNK, since only the most hardcore game companies continue to develop 2D games, I for one am grateful this game even exists. I can't wait for it!

I just can't believe there's no Dodge/roll system.

Just defend system is too much "MOTWesque". frown

So far, all that I've seen from SvC is very promising, all except the price tag for the MVS kit that is. $1,895?!?!? Sweet jumping jezus on a stick!! Looks like I'll be waiting a while to get it.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but it appears that the Capcom characters are better animated than the SNK characters......

Also almost all of the Capcom characters I've seen look beefier than SNK's

1895bucks... i ll wait the ps2/xbox release... (unless i can find an AES at 40bucks like in my hometown in late 90's and not at 150-160 like on the net nowadays)

At least your supporting the company.

That MVS price will drop like a rock when the homecart release nears, just like KoF'02. Perhaps just not quite as fast.

I'm beyond excited about this game, yeah there are some minor disappointments/omissions but that's bound to happen with a game of this magnitude that everyone's been waiting for so damn long. That's what sequels are for.

Homecart release= sick day for Loopz.
