Hopefully, it's worth it this time. Other than the graphics, KoF XII was a horrible disappointment.

Nothing solid announced other than the fact that it's coming, as well as a logo. Place your roster bets now!

XII was a disaster. I'm going to keep an ear open, but I really think this franchise has run its course.

*Coola Yagami* · 03-20-2010, 08:40 PM

I'm all for it. They'll tweak the gameplay, add more characters and wrap up the Ash storyline. I can't wait.

*Ninjinister* · 03-25-2010, 10:43 AM

Mai and King confirmed. Gameplay:

EDIT: Yuri also confirmed. Guess there's dedicated teams now, because this seems to be the Girls Team

Sorry, Ninji. I just could never get into this series.

Seriously, besides Ryo, I didn't even know most of the roster until I played Capcom vs. SNK 2.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 03-25-2010, 10:58 PM

Mai and Yuri? Okay, now I'm interested.

Man, XII was so bad...I hope they don't mess this game up.

Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. They could throw in my favorite characters in all of SNK history, have an epic storyline, and overall everything else would be great... but if it played like XII I'd still be disappointed.

I know it's hard to care about other fighters since MvC3's reveal, but those who still prefer SNK's bag, or are a little more excited for something closer to release, three new characters have been confirmed as of recent: Vice, Mature, and Hwa Jai.

Vice and Takuma are seen here: http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/offici...ter/index.html

Hwa Jai character image and partial moveslist here: http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h2...s/SAM_0370.jpg

I was into this series at some point but I don't think I'll ever see it as anything but a poor man's Street Fighter anymore. I began to feel at some point like if you've played one KoF game you've played them all.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 05-13-2010, 04:12 AM

Agreed. They milked that udder dry users ago. Yearly sequels are always a bad idea.

*XERO* · 05-13-2010, 07:50 AM

Maybe they should've added a couple of 'Supers' or 'Turbos' to those titles...

What... no HUHUHUHUHU? Might as well do ALL vowels.

You know what I think, though? This is all a ploy to just get Capcom vs. SNK 3 into fruition. They're gonna keep poppin' sequels until Capcom finally gives in.
