The King of Fighters XIII 2ND |OT| Thread: Final Edition

No no, his original design... He looks like a part time house painter in that outfit.

Yeah, I don't like that outfit that much either. But I think the new sprite will be able to make him look awesome. Maybe SNKP decided to use that outfit because they thought of many cool 2nd colors for him, so it could work.

Who knows, maybe his 2nd set of colors will have his Sprite have a Jacket, making it look like the no smokers outfit.

Figured they would go with an older outfit, the 2002 and 2003 looked lame to me. I'd love a Kensou/Ralf/Takuma/Chin etc style gameplay refresh.

Anyone else found his voicing annoying? I hope they change it.

Please don't be top tier ala 2002.

Now with XIII dumped they may just release XIII.5 (the console version) via Nesica, should be cheaper for them too.

I lol'd at the "preorder only" text.

Lucky me I preordered.

Also, can't wait to see videos of Ver1.2

Wat?

They better be talking about something lame and not characters.

They need to release this in Nesicaxlive, because it's still not hacked for our knowledge.

About the DLC thing, it just say that Pre-orders will get a DLC character, but for what Professor said, there is no specifications if Billy or any extra characters in the game are DLC only or actually in the game.

[ReXXXSoprano]

Now this I like. Billy in his OG attire. But the Jacket or Bodyguard Suit would make a nice alternate costume. And if SNK is going to have classic themes in the game then Billy needs London Marching from RBS/2. He could also use some help from Eiji, Geese or Heavy D!. And I would hope that his NeoMax isn't a counter.

Now, where DAT ADEL?!!!!

Terry_La_Caza from SpekSNK translated the scan and he pointed out some  things:

1. Billy will be DLC apparently.
2. There will be more than 6 game modes.
3. More NeoMaxes?

Hopefully there will be a more complete scan and we can get more info out of it, or at least a more clarified translation.

thank you
Will there be other console exclusive characters?

Well, he didn't point out this exactly. He says there's something related to NeoMAX in the scan, but he needs the full scan to know what. He pointed out DLC will be included if you pre-order (I guess pre-order some kind of special edition, not the regular game, but not sure)

I hope Terry_La_Caza can give us more details.

Damn playasia needs 3 weeks to send a copy in my country. So I am getting the game late november:S Dunno if preorder will make it faster

Well,i don't understand Spanish but it seems that he made inferences from the image.
The content of the image mentions the release date in Japan and console exclusive character Billy of KOF XIII concole version and that preorder package contains a dlc character.But it does't say the dlc character is Billy.

[Custle]

They have Billy with his original outfit, so SNKP could have his original theme from Fatal Fury as his theme.

[Shiranui_ninja]

Well,i don't understand Spanish but it seems that he made inferences from the image.

He lives in Japan, so he knows well japanese. Im trying to clarify what the image says with him

[Rex Dart]

Awesome! Billy makes a fantastic addition. I hope he has more great Engrish dialogue.

I DO wish they had used his Real Bout outfit though. Or something new. But, oh well. You gotta take the great with the mediocre.

By the way, which Famitsu issue is this from? I checked the one for the first week of July and it made no mention of KOF XIII.

hello guys,

I have been a lurker here for some time and i would like to thank this community for everything it brought and for sticking with the King of Fighters. I am a fan of 2d based fighting games since i knew them (since street fighter 2); its a great feeling to see them back again.
