At 10AM today I picked up my copy of KoF2KDC! It freaking rules! Discuss.
Anyways I'm very impressed. I don't have the Neo Geo version side by side to compare but I will soon. At the moment everything looks exact and load times are next to none once you get in the game. Screen fades black for about one full second and you're in the next round.
Check this out, everytime you examine a picture in the art gallery, it plays a random AST track which continues as long as you just scroll through the gallery normally without backing out. One of the tracks I heard was Nakoruru's Samurai Shodown II AST. I haven't gotten the Striker backgrounds yet but I'm hoping this means it actually PLAYS some extra AST tracks while those backgrounds are in effect. It would suck if this was just a tease like those KoF'94 AST tracks they put in the Dream Match 1999 gallery.
Anyways I didn't unlock the puzzle yet, and it's a step down from KoF Evolution presentation-wise in that there's no ingame movelist, no souped up menus and the such but that's irrelevent to me since the game itself seems 100% intact.
Is Zero playable in this? He wasn't selectable initially but I've only gone through the game in arcade mode once, if my friends and I can put it down later for just one person to play we'll see what we can get via beating the game repeatedly/etc..
Edit: Forgot this was just for News/Rumors.
