there better be a good cover.
Since the origional SNK collapsed we have been fed mostly shite.

Look at the inserts back in 99, like slug 3, MOTW and KOF 99. And than look at some of the shit since like Sengoku 3, KOF2001 and 2002.

But Slug 4 werent bad and neither was ROTD. But martrimilee, man it looks so embarrasing those little girls WTF this isnt the my little pony demographic, we;re supposed to be hardcore and violent gamers
Actually KOF2001 cover (by Hiroaki) is actaully one of the best in the whole AES run IMHO.

Now hat I look @ it more it does appear as if Ryu is bending over to be socked in the face by a bratty lil' Kyo or something.
This may very well be a Capcom game in disguise.

Sengoku 3 was before the original SNK collapsed so you cant blame playmore (besides it was a pretty nice insert).

Slug 4 and ROTD are ok. But Matrimelee is amazing. One of the best inserts lately.

IMHO

Its ok but i must admit i'd prefer a cover with all or most of the characters on it, or maybe even something a little like the style of KOF97, KOF98 or even Real Bout Special.

I will never understand this obsession with covers...either way that art isn't very favorable or interesting. It would be better if it had more than just Kyo and Ryu.
Because we play $200 + dollars for a fleakin videogame, we want our covers, hell we want our NEO games to be perfect!

Something like the original promo poster for CVS would be great.

A wrap-around cover would be ideal though. Like the old Mega Drive inserts. Those were wonderful.

The cover does not affect the game in anyway. They are made to look cool so people would want to buy the games. I guess its different with the Neo Geo, hell everything is different with the Neo Geo.

Something I don't understand: why is Kyo (both in the poster and game) in his KoF '98 outfit? It seems like with all versions of SvC/CvS so far any KoF after '98 just doesn't exist???

Well, seeing the new SvC page on the Playmore official site, seems I was right after all...

I don't beleive this art lends itself to a cover illustration. I'll probably be wrong, but I guess we will see. There is potential to do SO MUCH more with this.

i like the pic but dont think it should be the cover art. the cover should be all the characters in the game fighting or something like that and i don't mean all the snk characters on one side and the capcom characters on the other i mean a giant brawl or something but it should have all the characters in the game doing something

I be absolutely honest if they were to have just two fighters on the front why use kyo

it is pretty obvious that Terry Bogard is ryu's equal

he is much more a mascot for the SNK than Kyo ever will be Kyo has only been in kof games for the neo yet Terry has been in like 8 games more

Very true.

Terry = SNK
Ryu = Capcom

Kyo = KOF. wink

SNK has yet to fully capture the homosexual demographic. They've tried, much to their dismay...

You've got great taste.
One can't deny the class that's present on the previous KOF covers [98 especially], but the newer KOF's [01 and 02] while having shortcomings when it comes to gameplay/rosters, have no trouble in terms of design.

Both covers are AMAZING looking and a nice step towards being a bit more 'modern'

Sheesh,

Why not just have Kyo and Ryu slow dancing with their hand down each others pants.

That should be the poster for NAMBLA. eek!

As a member of Nambla, I agree. More man bo love is needed in the SNK universe. The Terry/Rock rleationship is HOT, dont get me wrong, but a cross over man-boy is even better.

Put steamy dreamy effects on the cover as well. Pink fog.
