People of Dream Cancel!

We're excited to share that GameSpot has thrown KOFXIII into some great company as a nominee for "Best Fighting Game" of E3 2011!
http://e3.gamespot.com/special-feature/best-of-e3-2011/genre-awards/index.html?page=3

It didn't win the Editor's award, but now it's in the readers' hands for the Reader's Choice vote.  So... uhh... if you have a free moment... umm... cast a vote for KOFXIII, won't you?

Thanks! :)

Ouch, that's some stiff competition! But the KoF Fans voices shall be heard! Thanks for letting us know!

...Heh, Anarchy Reigns counted? No Skullgirls? Do we have enough people on DC to beat The SFxTekken number? XD

Oh, and someone talk SNKP into dropping a few guest into Street Fighter X Tekken. If Cole from Infamous can be there, Terry Bogard & K' could/should be, too! ;) (I'd love to prove the SNKP characters could kick every other franchise character's butts, heh heh.)

It sucks that KOFXIII didn't get that much exposure as SFxT, if so then more people would had voted for it.

Still I voted and I hope more people vote for it. But as SAB-CA said, it's a shame Skullgirls didn't make it, Anarchy Reigns shouldn't even be there.

SFxT got it's numbers from people wanting to see this match-up and its' incredible hype machince. Observe (http://www.fightersgeneration.com/np8/sfxtekken-kaz-e311.jpg). But E3 is always more about potential than the actual release. Anyway, XIII has already proven itself a good game to me, SFxT has some more work to do. I can say better about it once the roster is fully established.

What the fuck is Anarchy Reigns, and why is it being listed next to big name fighting games like Street Fighter and Tekken? How the hell does it have more votes than KOF?

People is not voting the better game in this poll, is voting the most popular and famous fighting game, and we all know that KOF XIII can not compete in terms of popularity with SF etiher Tekken, so of course it can't with a SFxT crossover. What I can not understand is why SC5 or SkullGirls weren't options..., SF and Tekken hegemony makes me vomit.

I didn't know the poll end was today.... I voted but I  don't know if it was too late, there was already a winner when I voted :S

That's probably just the site's choice, if it still let you vote it's still going.

It really sucks that bad games like SFxT can become over-popularized just because of the companies behind them. :P

Nothing against Anarchy Reigns, but i think it should not be labeled as a "Fighting Game" .
Oh well, i did my part too :)

Voted though KOFXIII ends up being last.
Meh, that's casual gamers for you.

I voted on my netbook, my phone, my gf's phone and my desktop =)  Considering the game wasn't even announced until day before e3, and no public demo, 7XX votes is nothing to be ashamed of.

I've watched them, it looks alright so far gameplay wise at least, art design though it's ass.

You've got a point indeed. All other games basically had full media coverage whereas XIII had only few written reviews and no footage.

I think it looks terrible from every perspective. The system looks like a crap-covered SF4, which itself was already terrible.

Anarchy Reigns being on that list at all is a mind-boggler, especially if it took a spot from Skullgirls.  I mean, I don't care a lick about either game either way right now, but at least Skullgirls is an actual fighting game *laughs*
