Sorry if this has been posted all ready

New screens courtesy of snk-capcom.com

scroll down a few posts to see the pics

If this game is truely a 'tribute' title im up for it. my hope now is that it contains all KOF charecters and plays like a blast from the past i.e KOF 96-98. These backdrops seem cool....

what do you guys think now?

I've seen some of the images of KOF Neowave floating around out there, but I had yet to see the ones that were shown in the snk-capcom.com forums. I'm still sticking with my earlier comments saying that the verdict is undecided at this point. Will I probably end up loving it anyways? Yes.

The backgrounds seem to becoming more plainer by each photo. It just doesn't have any life in it. The Art does resemble that of Matrimelee, just by looking at the Jhun and Athena portrait. Ah well......

The BGs look damned good but why are they so devoid of life? There should be at least some onlookers in a few of em. But overall, I'm just eager for more details!

My first impression: wow, nice lighting effects!

Second: Wow, looks like CvsSNK2 (not really a bad thing, IMHO)

Thrid: Jesus, the artwork on the faces blows. I mean, really shitty.

So far, so.... well.... better than 2k3, which isn't saying shit.

I agree with all of that except the 2k3 bit. It reminds me a lot of '99 and before, all games that in all honesty bore me. But hopefully the gameplay tweaks will kick it up a notch.

YES. They are just scans. But the sprites STILL don't look improved AT ALL. Doesn't even look AS GOOD as CvS2. From the scans. Once again, only time and a first-hand viewing of gameplay will tell.
So we've only seen screens from Neo Wave, right? People are claiming Neo Wave is by Sammy, and 2004, will be by SNKP. I just don't fucking know what to believe anymore.

Looks pretty good to me. Of course the verdict is still out, however, since you've really gotta see it in motion to make any kind of judgement.

The lighting on that background with some kind of gear system looks beautiful!!! I can't wait to get this in my system!!

I must say that those screens look really tasty, especially the backgrounds look superb! I have high hopes for this game :)

I'm not impressed especially considering the hardware it's running on I was expecting new high res sprites for each character instead it's rehashed sprites with corny looking life bars, power gauges and character art. I'm sure the gameplay will be tight but it looks like it's going to incorporate the armor system and all that other bs from 99 and 00:oh_no: I'm disappointed to say the least.

I honestly don't think it's anything special right now, and I am not that excited about it. The only thing that could peak my interest in this game would be something like the announcement of all or almost all of the characters of past KOFs, or multiple versions of the characters that are in it (ex. Kyo 95, 98, 99,2K3).

That is a good point, where are the characters in the background?

Yes, the portraits resembles Matrimelee, and it's a good thing! Maybe it's drawn by Murata too? :drool:

But the girls don't resemble Murata's style THAT much...

Just as if it was on neo geo, the graphics don't really matter to me if the gameplay is there. And so far at the very least I'm curious how the different grooves will play out.

CvS2 sprites....*spits*

Daimon looked better in the background than any character ever did in the actual game....

Neo Wave, I'm almost 100% certain, is SNKP's. I mean, isnt Sammy simply a publisher?
