    Found some cabs today in Kyoto, got annihilated by everyone there. Going down early tomorrow morning to get some practice on arcade mode before every one turns up.

    hehe , sounds like both of yeas are having a good time. Maybe some pics of the arcades your at or something?


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭LIFETRAP


    Here's some pics of the one I was in today. Got a 5 win streak at KOFXIII which was pretty good, but probably played about 20 games if not more. It's so much fun. Guys here have already figured out crazy combos that they are pulling off in matches.

    I think every fighting game is in there. Well, at least the newest rendition of every game and every SF bar EX series. Just realised there was no MVC games though.

    Somewhere, Placebo is celebrating that he's found a use for his extra buttons.

    Nice pics, Lifetrap.


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭LIFETRAP


    It doesn't use the 5 buttons in game, but it's like BB, you can pick your layout, so they need the 5 buttons.

    You can have:

    A C
    B D

    or

    B C D
    A

    Not very encouraging

    I bet it doesn't even have Rugal either


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭LIFETRAP


    It doesn't have Rugal and those bugs will be fixed by the time any one sees it here.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Sf fans can't judge.

    Handcuffs, baby


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,977 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    I'm sure the console version will have it's own set of bugs at first too.

    great optimism there, fan boy


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Come on guys I am sure I don't have to explain the law of diminishing returns rule with debugging here. It happens. Both SF4 and SSF4 had gameplay patches released.

    How was I being a fan boy?

    Most fighting games released have a bug or two at first, but are then patched out.

    SSFIV had a few that got patched out when the Tournament Mode was released.

    Not very useful but they brought out a KFXII demo in Xbox Japan. If you were interested it takes like 5 minutes to create a free account. There's also a naruto ninja storm 2 demo for the xbox there too.

    In case you wanted a free fix of KF that didnt resort to the bold way of playing games.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    did they?

    cool, ill boot up my doorless leopard account so

    Every team I played against had K' when I was in Japan. He also seems pretty strong.

    New character sprites spotted in recent blog update - extra characters for the console version, maybe?

    More new videos up on Arcade Infinity's YouTube channel. I wish this would get an early release like Continuum Shift did.... If you know what I mean.

    KOFXIII coming to consoles early next year?

    2. NeoGeoFreak Section closing from Gemaga, and hints to..
    According to reports, the SNKP page/column on Gemaga will end after this month's issue. The reports also say that SNKP publicist Yuzuko hints in this final column that "the game that everyone is anticipating will soon..."

    [Edit 4/2] It's legit, the section is closing down in this issue after its 6 years of running, and the slight comment is there. Still, it can be about anything. However...

    Could this finally be it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,703 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Has it really been a year since this thread started?

    Madness.

    (This is being touted as "official" - until SNK-P make an announcment themselves, though, I'm not going to pretend that this is anything other than a rumour.)

    http://dreamcancel.com/forum/index.php?topic=65.msg12577#msg12577
    Some good news for console release (official).
    Coming in Japan between summer and the end of the year.
    No balance change for now.
    Additional content for the console release (char/stage/music).
    Except good netplay.

    SNKP should communicate really soon.

    The info came from Frionel (a famous versus figthing player in france) who is close to the developement.

    2:10:00 for the begining of the discussion on kof 13.

    The problem was that if Capcom released a new version of SFIV when XIII was released on console, SNK would be left headbutting the wall – SF wouldn’t give KOF a chance – Capcom is a marketing steamroller. There isn’t one fighting game that can rival SFIV in terms of sales. It’s just impossible. Everyone can take advantage of the sales of SFIV for the fighting scene in general but they can’t compete with it. So the plan for SNKP was to make sure the release of XIII didn’t coincide with any other fighting game release. Because of that, SNKP wouldn’t say anything at all before Capcom announced SFIVAE – which they have now done, so now it is safe for SNKP to announce XIII. I can officially say it will be released before the end of 2011.
