The legendary 3-on-3 fighting game series that united rival brawlers from SNK Playmore’s classic arcade franchises celebrates its 15th Anniversary in style with the release of The King of Fighters XII. For the first time in its history, this epic martial arts showdown has undergone a complete graphical overhaul. The antiquated character sprites used over the past 14 years have been dropped in favor of all-new, high-resolution fighters fluidly animating across painstakingly detailed, 100% hand-drawn backgrounds.
Nice HD rendition of the serie I was surprised because I wasn't especially waiting this, I am still playing old KOF's on an arcade system/MVS slot but I enjoyed playing this one on my HD screen and playing online with friends is nice too, just a pitty that Mai isn't there !
good but not perfect well SNK really tried to change the serie and they work many years for that ! but the result i've enyoyed the new design (even if it's not a gulty gear x...) and the gameplay system.
everything isnt perfect (iori moves changed, mai shiranui is missing, no story mode...) but for a first HD game, SNK made a good job and the KR version has a perfect price :)
