I ended up Dling it and it works like a charm. I just need to figure out how to get my Joystick to work with this thing cuz this keyboard shit ain't cutting it. This game is absolutely GORGEOUS on my laptop. I didn't think it would look this good but it had my jaw on the ground as soon as it booted up.

fuck the SFIV series.

Can't find the download. I fail at the internet.

In other news, I actually made a special trip out to Arcade UFO when my band played in Austin a few weeks and when I got there, the dude said they had JUST taken KOF XIII out the previous weekend. I asked him if he would put it back in for me (since there were 4 continuum shift 2 cabinets and all he'd have to really do is do a quick switch) but he said "That would be impossible." Have been wanting to play this game for a long, long while. October can't come soon enough!

Torrenting it right now. It should be finished by the time I wake up, but I won't have a chance to try it out until I get home from work tomorrow. :(

Nah, you're wrong. There were always people talking about ROMs. Most people's stances haven't changed. Those that supported them always supported them, and those who hated them have always stated that... Hell, I came here thanks to them, and bought way too many games due to them. Even the noble went ape shit to get their hands on Ghostlop's ROMs, or to buy a cart made from them. People discuss the X in 1 carts all the time, and we've had a lot of members that have openly supported emulation for years. Definitely not new at all to be talking about emulation here.

I think people just changed their view based on growing up and/or the price of what was being emulated or they just left. I'm also talking WAY before the X in 1 carts were around. People have jumped on higher priced arcade emulation (naomi/X2) like flies on shit. I'm talking more about when all there was was "real Neo games" or "mame". Personally, I could care less. Do what ever you want and I'm not here to say what people should or shouldn't talk about. I just mentioned how times have changed. If you don't remember when topics like this were flame wars with TOS quotes and potential bans, I don't know what to tell you. lol.

The timing of this leak is pretty ruinous....do you think it'll hurt sales enough to put them out of business?

Not judging anybody here, just a little concerned for the company.

I did that but it wasn't working. I had to dl xpadder. Even that was sort of a pain in the ass because when I ran typex_config and my joystick wasn't working it just set all the buttons to nothing. So I had to try to figure out what was what again and it was just a pain in the dick.

I'm not sure if it'll put them out of business but it'll hurt sales. This thing actually has a practice mode which is something I've never seen in an arcade dump before in my life. I think practice mode alone is enough to keep people satisfied with just this dump.

Won't affect me though, cuz I'm obsessed with original copies. Sadly many don't share my obsession.

Not really if anything dling this will convince you to buy the home port. This is only single player mode. No one wants to play a fighter in only single player.

I remember back when it wouldn't have taken until post #32 for someone to worry about this.

I'll be buying the game when it hits, and I'm not bothering to download this. But I can't help feeling this was SNKP's final KOF anyway. They barely got this one out (and honestly, I wasn't expecting THAT). I think they're done.

I mean honestly no one I know likes SNK games so to say it supports 2 player local is just like saying its 1 player. If I cant get online and play then I cant play.

Btw why doesnt anyone just use joy2key and map their stick. I found it effortless.

Definitely buying The King of Fighters XIII the day it comes out.

But I'll be playing this every single day until then. I want to be as good at the game as possible by the time it comes out.

Interesting. Couple weeks ago I was visiting another city, saw some candy cabs running SF4, never dawned on me that they were still making modern arcade/jamma hardware. Went home, did some googling .. was almost ready to pull the trigger and purchase a new board+hd+dongle ....

But then I saw on google "taito type x2 loader", and I started snooping around about this..

Long story short, shit like this does effect sales. But at the end of the day, I'm not putting it into a route/service so you can assume my wallet is still heavy... But I also tracked down some tech info on the guy who started dumping them. As far as I'm concerned there isn't actually any protection...

Oh wow... I'm tripping out. It really is a PC Game... The video files are WMV and the sound files are OGG vorbis.... oh man... no protection at all. What a shame....

Okay I got this downloaded and it works like a charm! My only gripe is I can't change the resolution setting in the game. Changing my computer resolution setting does NOTHING.

Have to admit... this is a fun one. I don't get it though. I have an intel i3 3.20mhz, 6 gb ram, and it's not full speed. I think my graphics card is what's crapping it up a little.
