Orochinagi: The King of Fighters

From… http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/official/ … st_14.html Sonic Tempest said: Wow, an exhibition tournament featuring top players…and Mitsuhiro Ichiki. LOL. This is the first time they’ve gotten their hands on the full roster too… Wow, Ichiki didn’t do that badly even though he was up against Kyokugendo.  Holy crap Liz gets a free DM every time she knocks [...]

Looks like Arcadia is making a series of videos about KOF XIII: Of course, Japanese only. Hosted by Mitsuhiro Ichiki and Sayuki Matsumoto. Training mode in the arcade version: http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/official/ … _mode.html Apparently NeoMAX moves are now present on everyone’s movelist on the site too. And a blog entry about the Psycho Soldier team: http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/official/ [...]

Thx to NeoEmpire! A bit long, a bit of waffle, some bad clips of gameplay but still nice to see the game coming together.  How long to go before its release?  They must be working round the clock… hope some of that work goes on the netcode…

PenPen reports “Got back from loketest, and got some vids recorded, uploading them to j00tube now. Currently, Neomax doesn’t require you to enter Hyper Drive first anymore. As long as you have 3 stocks, you can do it. Controls seem tighter than before, which is a good thing. And yes, the entire K’ team is [...]

Thanks to Toxic Avanger!So that’s that.  Whip is most surely out for this round of KOF.  K’ got his almost-robot buddy and his almost-pedo love interest.  It’s interesting that K’ is surrounded by characters that are close to him (not to mention his “sister”) while Kyo and Iori just have… well, each other!  Ok, Kyo’s [...]

Nothing beats seeing an old KOF fan grow up and stay true to his roots, with the skills that have developed along the way.  Pop Squally has started work on a KOF comic, and I hope you will give him the applause he deserves – I know it’s not even finished but these days, getting [...]

Translated by yours truly. This week’s entry talks about the Elisabeth team in KOF XIII and their various changes. Click here to read more on the forums!

You can’t really have K’ without his good old buddy…. but his movelist seems revamped!  No command throw?   Could well be a completely different playing style…

Today in the UK we will have the results of our general election.  Or maybe a hung Parliament instead.  Votes were tampered with but in the end only so much fiddling could be done with cookies and your friends helping out-  Gojira wins Yuri and Chun Li! I’ll do this competition again…. but with which [...]

While I was in Hey Akiba and Taito in Asakusa, I threw a few hundred yen into this game.  It’s quite fun, but the difficulty curve is steep! The controls were fairly straightforward, apart from the Japanese instructions telling you that there are two systems to choose from.  One seemed to be the standard shoot+bomb [...]

After the Senkaiden Hoshin Engi-esque battle between the two of the most powerful Heavenly Kings of Orochi, Yashiro of the Parched Earth and Goenitz of the Wildly Blowing Wind, at the Mount Kunlun. You fly back to Japan and confront the Big Bad. However, the Big Bad is found in… The Strange Space Wait, what? [...]
