It's kind of unfair to compare visual novel talking head artwork story modes to full cutscene ones with 3D models.

The King Of Fighters XIII - Console version detailed
- Thread starter Fersis
- Start date
I'm not the one that said BB's story mode is the best "period". If he had said "best lightly animated" or "best 2D-only story mode", then MK would be out. MK's story mode is just straight up solid. No loading time whatsoever, smooth, seamless transitions between in-game and cutscenes, voice-work, nice story, cinematic quality, nice narrative choices... It's just jaw-dropping to even think that is even in a fighting game.
It's a Mortal Kombat movie, 6-8 hours long, and better than most, if not all, videogame movies.
Anyway, I'm happy KOF XIII was streamed to 7K people. I wonder how many people will watch tomorrow (there's more tomorrow, right?).

to me they're both just really tedious things to lock content behind
I hope KoF13 just leaves its story mode to people that like that sort of thing

I'd prefer to be able to avoid single player modes altogether if possible
I kinda doubt there will be character unlocks in the game though

If there's OG Iori I'd love an OG Ralf, Clarke and Ryo. Ryo's move set is fine but I don't care much for how Ralf and Clarke play now and dislike how they all look. Clarke and Ralf look like buffaloes dipped in motor oil and Ryo's face is all menacing looking.

But does he say mission comprete after he wins and a bunch of random guys come from the ceiling to stab with knives? :O
Either way I'm into dudes hitting people with sticks, sticks. Right now my KoF13 team has one confirmed and that's Terry, because he's the only character that just flows for me when I play him. I like my characters more brain dead like Yang and Abel. panda21 said:
Isn't Europe release date Oct 27th? Check your game store/online site you buy from.
If you are a PS3 owner you can always just import it too since it's a $50.00 here in the USA, but I do believe Japan/USA/Europe get it in the same few days at the end of October from 25-27th.

Yeah Rising Star is bring over for Europe as well. The US, Europe, and Japan are going to have a simultaneous release, so global online action will be good...hopefully.

Wait wait. 95 or 98 Iori?

Or they can be like Capcom and give you a bare bone version without much in it and release an update later with more characters and stages and charge you for all the extra costumes.
I can't believe people are complaining over DLC content with the amount of stuff they are already adding to the game. This already has more content then all 3 Street Fighter 4 versions released.
I'm usually against this kind of practice but in this case I am okay with it because they are including so much on the disk already.

Hmm I thought I read 95 somewhere, now I'm not certain. Anywho he's given to those that prerorder the game.

Uh does it matter? It's Classic Iori with his traditional special moves. His supers are the 'ranbu' and for the cost of an additional stock you can follow with his pillar super from KoF 2001 (Stil QCFx4 motion though =P), and the KoF 2000 Pillar super.Muchi Muchi Pink said:
You can see all his moves in Atlus' website.
Come on guys no one heard about any rumors/leaks regarding the other characters?
I CAN'T CONTAIN THE EXCITEMENT (Seriously the one time Lupinko can be useful and he doesn't know anything =V)

I totally disagree. While I find the design for Ash to be atrocious (especially for SNK), the 360 cover looks way better.
This game needs Angel, Whip, Blue Mary*, Vanessa. Maybe, uhh...what was that girl from 2002 with the superhero complex? She was fresh too.
*I'm pretty sure she'll be added eventually, either with the game or as DLC
Wow that's sad about her VA, didn't know that.
I'm usually all for new designs (especially in series with tired 20 yr old retreads like Street Fighter) but the last KoF I played seriously was 2002, so those guys (gals) are still fresh to me. It's not like they're Kyo-Iori-Terry-Andy-Joe-Kim as far as appearance credits, apart from Mary who should be a staple character by now.
My fear is more that the new characters might be more like Ash or the other post-2k2 crowd. I don't care for most of them, design-wise. But with that said, I'm always up for new characters; learning a new play style is much more fun than picking someone you're already familiar with, IMO.
So I'd like a mix of both. If it's too much to ask, that's fine. I'm buying this either way.
You must hate everything good in this world.

As in "Heathcliff"
I hope that one of those 5 DLC will be Vanessa because my friend really want her in.
I already got characters that I love and I don't understand why people would complain about KOF13's DLCS.. It irritated me that people bitched about possibility KOF13 DLCS. SNK really need it because
1) SNK announced that KOF13 might be their last game. They saying if KOF13 is failure, then they're not going to make kof anymore. They are putting everything they can in KOF13. (I might be wrong)
2) They need to make more money to keep the company floating so we could have more kof games in future.
3) KOF13 have way many contents; way more than MVC3 and SSF4:AE together. So we don't have right to be mad at them for considering DLC path.
4) They considered DLC path to make some fans happy because they may not have fighters that they want to see in KOF13 such as Blue Mary, Vanessa, etc along with DLC stages.
5) BUY 2 GAMES AND BUY DLC! SUPPORT SNK AS YOU CAN IF YOU WANT TO SEE THEM ALIVE! We need more companies to give capcom hard time so they could do better than being lazy.
