In this thread, feel free to let loose with all your fanboy ranting like
"OMG IORI HAS NEW CLOTHES HEART HEART HEART"
or
"ASH IS A FAGGIT!"

XII has no STOREELAYNS! BOOoooo! (lulz)
I just can't imagine when a possible follow-up will be announced if ever.
2010? 2013? 2015? NADA?

Yeah, of all the versions of Robert, we get the one that looks like he plays from 94 or 2k2, when any year but 99 would've been more interesting.
Another sad thought is if Kyo is going to be purely the 95 version, his only DM is the Orochi Nagi (which looks weird in XII BTW, like he was sliding forward with a trailing HSKK).

This is already old yet no one has posted (!):
RALF. IS. FAT. OLOLOLOL
Seems like Iori tried to get even with Ash. Ash stole his powers, so he stole his white pants. Hopefully his alternate colour will swap the color of his pants with the color of his jacket.
On the positive side, he now really looks like a wrestler and older (as he's supposed to be on his 30's if we go by what '95 said.

I really hope SNK makes this game faster.
What they've shown looks so slow and choppy it's not funny

What I don't get is why Iori manages to keep fighting even after getting his powers stolen in the previous tournament, while Chizuru is still rotting in some hospital bed.
And then people say that KOF isn't a popularity contest.

Gunny, I wish Shermie was back too; I miss her
If XII is meant to rejuvenate with nextgen features, it wouldn't hurt to see some old friends again.

Initiate Rant mode!
Sure they'll bring CYS back in like the next next gen dream match which is after kof 13? O wait they messed up the dream match order in 12. So dream match now and canon game then dream match? WTF is wrong them. Damn lazy story tellers. How dare they leave us hanging after the events of 11.
What happened to the "claims he's Italian but looks Hispanic" Robert from NGBC or Kof 11. What happened to the club sandwich eating Terry that can't magically spin upside down in the air anymore? Blasphemy I tells ya!

Greetings, Im a new member here. Okay, this is my expression regarding this game :
New Sprites???? FINALLY, THAT DISGUSTING KOF 96 STYLE SPRITE NOW ARE GONE!!!!!! THANKS GOD!!! THANKS GOD!!!!!!!!
Robert using his Original AOF/KOF 94/95 Costume : Not a big problem. I prefer his 2K3 costume. But his original costume is good too. BUT AOF/KOF 94/95 MOVESET????? I'll be playing him.
THANKS GOD!!!!! RYO'S DISGUSTING FIGHTING STANCE NOW ARE DEAD!!!!!!!! BUT HIS MOVESET STILL RESEMBLE DAN???? Hell, even CAPCOM now how to make a good Ryo in CVS 2.
Kyo back to KOF 95 moveset???? THE BEST KYO KUSANAGI EVER!!!!!!!! Finally, after he got his projectile again in XI, now he's totally BACK TO HIS ORIGINAL MOVESET. If SNK also add his combo punch and RED Kick in this Kyo=Ultimate Kyo. But without his combo punch and RED Kick=Still the best.
Same with Ryo=Andy's disgusting fighting stance are also dead. And his moveset are also old school??? Usually, Andy its not my favorite whether he using his old school or new school moveset. But looks like Im interesting with him now.
Iori's totally new here, both costume and moveset : DAMN, he's so brutall. I never like Iori. But with this new Iori??? I will try.
Freeman+Inu Yasha+Undertaker=INSANE IORI!!!!!!
Looks like the game is getting slower and less combo than before. Thanks God!!! I never like combo and a big fans of KOF 95. Looks like this game will rocks because its remind me of KOF "THE GREAT" 95.
No story??? Oh shit, after SNK Made so many good effort. Why they make this fatal decision??? I hope they will change they mind. And if not, I hope KOF XIII and its succesor still followed XII's gameplay concept.

No one cares about storylines when playing.

*slaps KK*
I care very much about storylines
Less big combos is kind of cool for slow retards like me... but KOF is a blend of SF and GG - medium length combos - the best of both worlds, I think.
Oh and hello there, welcome to the boards.

Not at all. Several people prefer to play in arcade mode instead of versus. And if we completed the arcade mode and the game only rewarded the player with a senseless picture like 98 did, it will be a

. That's why I never like 98 so much.
Well, perhaps SNK must showing Athena singing in the ending credit like 95 did. I will be happy if SNK did it.

Yeah me too. I prefer a slow gameplay (but not to slow like 94) like 95 and CVS 2 did. But after I see XII video, looks like this game will be not too slow and not too fast and people still can make a good combo (especially Iori). I think its fair enough. So both Offensive and Turtle Player can enjoying it together.
And hello too.
