well you gotta give props where props is due. personally im happy with the game as everything ive been wanting in kof since 96 is finally in it. they also actually managed to make the game intact with all its main teams and characters in 2d which is actually a huge deal. lets hope the game does well enough for a follow up so w can have even more animations and characters even more fleshed out (and yamazaki). kof xiii is still far from perfect, but so far the console version is shaping up to be best fighter ever made to date.
Couldn't agree more. Like everyone else, I pray that they make enough on this so that we get sequels. It's really shaping up to be an awesome game. With the sprites they're currently using, they're almost future proof - or at least I would not get tired of them for many years.
The re-balancing that they're doing is definitely being thought about correctly, most emphasis on balance, at the same time, making lesser used moves in the arcade meaningful (like Benimaru's drill).
Some people might have issue that they're not 720p, but they're good enough for me and hopefully with the right filters applied to them they'll look great on console (every HD vid I see makes it look like eye candy - so hype).
Yamazaki would be great, hoping Eiji and the Orochi team eventually make it in > but will save this for the wish-list thread...
OK, just waiting for more console vids, but don't think there'll be a source for it other than the one's that'll come from the blog.
