Those clips showed some pretty nice footage, I was happy with some of the stuff I saw.
The backgrounds look good, couple of the new DM's look cool and useful, Athena looks super cute, and K9999's new move adds some anti-air priority.
Kim's animations were pretty slick, but why give him so much more attention than everyone else?

Let's think about that one for a moment, shall we? Eolith is a Korean company, therefore, it shouldn't surprise anyone that they'd give special attention to all the Korean characters (except for Jhun). This not only explains why Kim is better animated, but also why Chang and Choi are still around, and why May Lee was a shoe-in (no pun intended) for the 2002 Female Fighters Team. I could be wrong, but I think this surmises it pretty susinctly, don't you?

Back to the topic at hand:
The footage looked pretty jerky, but as far as I could tell, the backgrounds look better than they've ever been (it might be a little early to say this, but these could be the best KOF BGs ever).
