Oh you don't want none of this son! lol, anyway is the game an Xbox exclusive? cause I did something to my Xbox and if I go online my system will be banned =(

[Cibernetico]

From the looks of it, yes it is exclusive. Something about Sony not liking 2D games and thinking they are obsolete made SNK go with the 360 to release games like NGBC and 2k2UM. oh well, it's Sony's loss I guess.

[metaphysics]

 When this comes out I'm a drop every game I play except for XIII. And play straight up kof lol, can't wait to get worked haha

[Judge Fudge]

Never played 2k2 UM before, but I'm definitely picking it up.  Hope the transition from 98 isn't too hard.  Can't imagine it would be.

[Cibernetico]

All you would really have to deal with is the BC combos which are basically custom combos. Either than that, I can't imagine it bieng hard to transition.

And speaking of 98UM, I really really hope that if 2k2UM sells well, it will give SNKp incentive enough to give that game 2k2UM's and NGBC's netcode to it.

[nilcam]

I'm working on learning 2K2UM Tougeki and the BC combos have been really challenging for me. I play Vanessa, K' and Joe and find it more effective to combo and/or hit confirm into super.

If 2K2UM on 360 has great netcode, I'm buying a console for it. I'm tired of playing OG 2002 on ArcLive. I don't ike playing games on my laptop.

[Nikolai VolKOF]

Let's just hope we get a large audience that sticks. It sucks when you trying to learn a game and only the people who have been playing it for years are on, when they whoop you up they refuse to play you again, pretty shitty. We need good netcode to get more new peeps. Nov 3rd can't come soon enough

[Cibernetico]

Well like I said earlier, I wonder if the game proves to have the great netcode that NGBC did, will it get a lot of the GGPO crowd to stick to the 360 and UM. And yeah you are right, sorta sucks that even with the great netcode, the NGBC crowd pretty much died quickly

I know for sure I will be playing it the majority of the time.

If you'd like to see 2K2UM on PSN, head over to ON and vote in their poll. They claim they can work with SNKP to get it done if the interest is there.

If you're familiar with the basic systematics of OG2k2 then the trasition shouldn't be that difficult, granted a couple things were changed like SDM/HSDM's outside of BC mode and various tweaks

I hope this is official news because I know a lot people over on SRK want this game on PSN, anyway I'll vote

nilcam frontpage it when you can

[desmond_kof]

Nice, the link is on the front, thanks nilcam.

Not sure if the petition will truly work since I heard that Sony doesn't like standard definition 2D games for the PS3, but nothing is wrong with trying.

[nilcam]

I see that a lot but I don't buy it. MvC2 is on the PSN and so is the PSOne version of KoF 99. I think Sony will put whatever they can on their service so long as it makes money. There may be some conflict due to KoF 2K2UM being on PS2 but one would think the PSN version would be different enough to make some money.
