KOF XIII 7th General Thread: Evo 2012 countdown edition

[LouisCipher]

I thought SBO was for Arcade only games?

[Reiki.Kito]

Apparently they sold out and decided to give up their principles for cash. What a topsy-turvy world we live in.

[Saitsuofleaves]

No, I doubt it's a sellout, otherwise SFxT would be there for sure, and it isn't.  Keep in mind, SBO has put on CFJ in the past...so yeah.

[LouisCipher]

It can't be a case of low turn out. It's KOF, it's fucking massive in Asia, and it's the best received KOF since the UM titles.

Maybe someone on the SBO board owed someone a favor or had some incriminating photos? At least SFxTK isn't getting repped though.

[Saitsuofleaves]

Again though, SBO is trash.  They don't give a shit about anyone that isn't from Japan or within the area.  I'd feel better if they didn't even offer foreign invitations, then at least they would be upfront about how much they really don't care about us being there.

[BioBooster]

Don't get me started about SBO, the rage and dissapointment will cause me to throw furniture. That tourney hasn't been relevant to me for years now.

[Saitsuofleaves]

They should be happy I'm not in Japan.  The Fire Department would be working overtime.

[Tyrant292]

Well SBO, in its eternal role of pissing me off, has done it again, indirectly.  It's adding UMvC3 and SCV to the lineup.  Normally, wouldn't care too much, or I'd be somewhat happy, except in doing this it skipped over KOFXIII AGAIN.

...How the hell did KOF get passed over by Aquapazza and then games that don't even have Arcade Releases?  WTF?!

WTF IS WRONG WITH THE JAPANESE!!!

it just keeps getting worse and worse! do they go by taste, by competitive edge or by what!? did their taste change that much in the last 10 or so years! I think they go by what game is easier now that they turned to UMvC3. It's just fucking depressing, I was really hoping the japanese comminuty will pick KoF XIII up. To hell with SBO.

excuse my language but.....

I moved the MLG Clark vs Iori/Kyo gameplay talk to the correct thread.

Wait, if they're arcade only, how is UMvC3 there in the first place?

Also, Aquapazza, REALLY?

[Reiki.Kito]

I don't quite get SBO either, but it's their tournament. We just aren't obligated to watch it or care.

Emphasis on USED to be.  This is the first year they've done console games, let alone two.
