Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
The new trailer says a lot of stuff and my fanboyish mind likes to interpret that as if there were new things added to the mode(s) found in the Arcade. Are there any additions to the Story mode? I haven't been able to find the cabinet empty (yeah, good news, hope that means more cabinets will appear elsewhere and that people are going to buy the game), so I haven't been able to see any animations or anything (or dendings or anyone picking someone that's not top tier).
Also, you made me shit my pants when you implied that Amazon didn't have the 4 CD preorder bonus, as I resort to them (and the power of the Mexican mafia) to get my copy. Please don't say anythinig like that again. I'm paying a lot to get this game.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
The story mode has been totally overhauled. It's a REAL story mode. I have to wait for SNKP to post news before I can follow their lead. What they have announced so far is you will get to see the sub plot regarding two characters...

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
Now is a sweet update to read about Gunny. I'm glad they fleshed out XIII's story mode. Seeing how much of the series wraps up here.
I'm actually curious if some of the gang may even change sides. And just how far "you know who" goes.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
That's great news and makes the wait worth it. Yes, I think a deep story mode alone is well worth waiting for.
I still can't help but think their is a lot we don't even know about.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
I still find the whole EX Kyo thing… well, weird, to be honest.
Then again, we're getting Kyo's schoolboy uniform. But I find weird that "new" Kyo has a pre-'96 movelist, while "retro" Kyo has the punches.
On the other hand, what are the odds of EX Kyo getting "new" Kyo's outfit? I know it's not as easy as it sounds, but maybe some palette changes could do it. I mean, Iori has it, even though EX Iori ended up looking very different.
Sorry about this pseudo-rant.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
Um...schoolboy Kyo is just an alternate sprite for regular Kyo. The leaked artwork would suggest that 'EX Kyo' will in fact have his NESTS outfit but since we haven't seen him in action we don't know for sure.

I should have worded that better. Apologies.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
Thanks, Gunsmith. I'm waltzing in the air right now... KOF story is suprisingly deep, fun and with great twists unlike virtually every other fighting game (looking at you, SF and your mangled storyline).
I'd love to see Eiji in the roster to have a team with EX iori and Billy (especially considering SNK has confirmed Geese isn't in the game). Hopefully, there'll also be a way to choose EX Kyo with schoolboy/modern outfit as I hate NESTs 'Backstreet Kyo' looks.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
I am - my parents are in town until the end of the month, so I haven't had time to run out and grab the mailing supplies I need.
I'll update the thread when the posters have been mailed out.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
Alright sounds good. Thanks
So to keep this going. I was pretty annoyed that Atlus didn't head to the New York Comic Con. I mean talk about a missed oppurtunity. I suppose they didn't really want to spend any more money to show the game off before launch but damn that would have been like a last good place to show it off. Totally would have seeked out that booth to play it too. Oh wells.

Re: KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread
Well, Capcom was expected to make announcements for for UMVC3 and SFxT, and unless they'd have something big to show off as well, they need to pick their battles considering their comparatively limited resources - I mean, Capcom gets to show off how they turned Phoenix Wright into a fighting game character, tease more SFxT characters, show off new systems for those 2 games, and at most KoFXIII could have shown off the remaining DLC characters, so reactions might have been "meh" at best for the crowd that was expected to be there.
Edit: Oddly, it seems amazon.co.uk isnt supporting the pre-order bonus, but amazon.fr is: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/forum/cd/dis ... PESY875X6P" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
