More KOF XIII action at the last Arcade Infinity Tournament, thanks to Kane317, who I just had an interesting chat with last night…

Kane has started to upload videos from the last KOF XIII tournament at Arcade Infinity with nice editing so you can see who is playing! Check out Ralf’s steaming hot… um… action! Note Kunio will be at Alex’s arcade for another tournament on the 9th April so stay tuned for more videos!

After last night’s tournament, it was interesting to see the fun factor vs hardcore skill.  As the games got more technical, the skill factor rose and the fun factor fell.  The matter of who is best internationally doesn’t really seem to matter anymore, which leads us to the question of which game to stage tournaments [...]
