After watching 5 times and now being able to breathe normally, still so, so, so, so, so hyped for this game. Don't know what road they were originally taking XII, but seems like XIII was extra-specially made for the fans and enthusiasts. The arcade build has me so excited, not just for KOF/SNK's sake, but for fighters in general; competition breeds better games, just like this one will. Good job SNK; keep it up.
the sprites in this are absolutely incredible. I tihnk it's great that they haven't jumped on the 2.5D bandwagon because as much as I've gotten used to the SF4 look, this just looks so much better
I'm actually glad to see both Capcom and SNK going at it again like they did back in the day. That competitive drive they have only means we will get only top-quality fighting games from this point on.
@Rorshock520 final words: SNK has always done the most balanced and most groundbreaking fighting games of videogame history, super special moves, MAX S.S.M, taunts, dash, dodge, evasion, run, fallbreaker, body toss escape, cancels, strikers, teamplay, characters intro, characters cameos, etc, etc.
I avoided XII and after looking at this, I am getting this definitely. Already have Super Street Fighter IV. Already looking forward to this game, Blazblue, Mortal Kombat 9 and Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Can't wait.
Their are alot of background cameo's: Hinako and Shingo in Japan. B.Jenet and Chris in England Cham Cham and Marco in Brazil Li Xiangfei in China Shermie, Ramon, Seth and Vanessa in France Chang in India (atop the elephants). Ha, wonder what other cameo's their are.
Oh riight thats what I'm talking about KOF13. Man was getting kind of worried that one wasnt coming out. I hope they have extra secrete characters and bosses. Most of all they should come out with an anime/movie like they do for the SF4 games.
Botan whatever her name is,the one with the black shorts and black hair,I hope she become an playable character she just might be my favorite girl in KOF,I just have to see how she fight now.
All i have to say after watching this video is: NICE. KOF comes back better than ever with awesome graphics, awesome stages, awesome characters, awesome powers and an awesome climax of Ash. Iam not a big fan of KoF but their games are cool(most of them) still i prefer Street Fighter games better. I will definetly buy this game.
It looks awesome. Two things: We need GOOD netcode for home consoles. And I can't wait for the boss, let him be balanced and playable (like Rugal in 98 or Adelheid in XI).
damn it looks awesome...this game should have been the 12...that one was incomplete, i hope this one is 1080p because the other one the characters looks very pixelated on my hdtv because the game is 720p and my tv 1080p...
