The size is too big. But that would have been AWESOME, since it would have meant online play.

Or rather, it would have meant non-KDDI online play. Y'see kids, all the SNK fighters released in Japan for the past two years have had online play-- but it's only in Japan and is a separate service that runs about 1,000 yen a month.

Like I said in the other thread about this, I wouldn't mind a Xbox 360 compilation that had KOF XI, MOF Max Impact 2 Reg. A, Samurai Showdown Tenka and Neo Geo Battle Colessium. Good idea?

If relevance was a prerequisite for posting at 'the 'bore' this place would be quite bare.

KOF XI has 10 times the game play of Rock Bland. Hell, KOF XI is already two years old and it's still being played. I doubt anyone will be touching Rock Band two years from now.

There's plenty of relevant discussion on here.

Rock Band is basically an excuse for Wii Closet Fans to flex their internet rant muscles.

How about which is more of a rip off: KOF XI on Capcom fighters, OR Rock Band on Bemani games? FIGHT!

MCD · « **Reply #41 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:57:32 AM »

IMO, KOF series needs two things:

online and better sprites/art, i am not asking for 1080p HD awesome quality here, something like SF3rd Strike would be a splendid start.

as for the game itself, i am not the fighting type guy, so i am happy with anything that is fun. (VF is no fun!)

First and foremost, this is an arcade game. That said, the home versions have had online for over two years now. PS2 has been Japanese-only, but the Xbox versions released all had online. What SNK needs to do is also release these games for the 360/PS3, be it via ports or as downloadable games.

I don't think you're going to see a 2D fighter animated like SF3 ever again, unless SF4 is somehow 2D, 1080p, AND animated like SF3. But I'm not holding my breath. The main reason for this is the HUGE roster...there are far more characters in KOF than there are in SF3. SNK has had their highly animated games already, like AOF3, Last Blade, and of course Garou.

KOF XII, by the way, is going to have entirely new sprites. Here's hoping for amazing animation and HD. SNK isn't rushing this game out, which is definitely a good thing.

Quote

Oh no doubt KOF XI is the best 2D fighter that's been released in the last five years. I keep saying "trilogy of awesomeness" in many SNK posts, and that's because SNK hit a triple play with KOF XI, NeoGeo Battle Coliseum (which is probably more accessable to anyone than KOF XI and more "Capcom friendly"), and Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden (which has EVERY SINGLE character from SS1-5, right down to the referee and the animals, plus new ones).

To be honest, I always try to play VF games and usually get tired of them...I don't find them as fun as other fighters and thus never learn them. I want to get back into VF5, but it's pointless since Tekken 6 is hitting arcades here soon and everyone is going to be playing that. Still gonna get VF5 on 360 though. Hope the online is good!

Eh, they did okay with BR2 and BR Primal Fury...good Fighting Vipers clones.

Bloody Roar actually lives on...Eighting has used the engine like this:

Bloody Roar (Hudson, Arcade, PSX, PS2, GC, Xbox) -> Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen (Bandai, GC) -> Fate/Unlimited Codes (Capcom, Arcade [and then PS2 later])

Also the Naruto Shippuden Wii games are based on the GC titles, but instead are developed by a different, shitty-ass developer.
