This is how it should have been Capcom :'(

I called it, I called it I so called it!

When I first heard that SNK was billing KOF XII as the Ultimate Fighter which would include completely redrawn HI-RES Sprites in HD I knew it that this was going to be the break through I was waiting for in what the next step 2D Sprite Fighters should look like.

First KOF XII Trailer

Is a comparison trailer comparing KOFXI to KOFXII. Kotaku didn't exactly get good vid quality but here it is for what its worth.

Confirmed for PS3 and 360 in 2009

Well Kotaku said they called it too, so who do we believe? :P

Anyway, this is great to see and yes it would've been better for Capcom to stick strictly to 2D. It's nice to see SNK back in the game recently, hope they continue to compete with Arc Systems, Sammy and the like. 2009 is so far away though, oh well, there's always KoF XI.

p.s: Ash Crimson looks great as usual.

Did you see Kim Khapwans and his famous wavy pant legs :shock:

Man my has put on some weight though :P

Maybe SNK can ask Capcom to put Dudley in it 8)

Yeah, because in Street Fighter 4, Capcom is totally ignoring the real Street Fighter fans and taking every single Street Fighter III character out... I guess they aren't smart enough to have a look at the tournaments. 3s is more popular than SFII.

Oh well, enough of my rant.. Maybe they will realize and cater to the huge Street Fighter III fanbase.

I think it would have been better if Capcom did Street Fighter 4 the same way SNK is doing this game. The new clip looks great. They still look more like sprites.

First Street Fighter 4, now KOF12. Both 3D games using artistic shading to retain the 2D look. Sounds like fighters have a potential for a comeback.HuusAsking

KOF XII is using sprites :evil:

Yeah I saw, I thought it was a strong breeze or something.

lol, fat chance if they do put him in there, he'd be competing with Vanessa. :P

You better hope they bring Andy back. ^_^

And looks like there's a new boxer in SFIV: Meet Abel

That's MMA not boxing. There is still hope for Dudley! If not then I shall destroy my Dreamcast.

The last non-spinoff entry in the series was KOF XI in 2005, and the upcoming game is a 3D fighter that is shaded to look 2D. Koyama described it as "3D mixed with 2D."The kotaku article

Do you REALLY want to see Dudly turned into those horrid looking models that seem to plague the entire SFIV game?Verge_6

A playable appearance by Dudley is would bring much class and dignity to the game. Realisitically without Dudley this game will be reduced to Gutter Trash.

I mean Verge he's got a flying coat man....

Kotauku was just kidding it is in 2D it's confirmed by SNK and the obvious look of the trailer.

dudley and alex would rock in sfiv

I can say there is no possible way Dudley will be in SFIV. Reading translated notes on SFIV from Game Director Ono, he is very keen bringing back the "****c" SF2 feel. He also stated that "The SF3 characters were too distant". Basically saying it was hard to relate to the characters of SF3.

Nickmanx5

I can't believe Alex who was the main character of SFIII doesn't get more recognition in Capcom's games. He didn't even make it into CvS2. I would have liked to see Hugo as well. I mean Final Fight is an intergral part of the SF Universe and Capcom and Andore/Hugo fits the bill. At least give me a Cody or Guy.

As for KOF XII. Is this when we will finally see the Shiranui Ninja return?

WTF @ Too distant. LOL, its a fighting game. Do they honestly think people play Street Fighter for the coming of age story of two friendly rivals set to the back drop of Guile and his international team of heroes trying to thwart the evil M. Bison from world domination? LMAO, I hope they don't think that people seriously care about this stuff.

Yeah I remember the quote. But hell I guess that will only leave us with the SFII core cast and some newer characters then. But then again I can't see them not putting in some Alpha or SFIII characters. If they don't (which is seeming likely) it would be crazy.

This Kage guy has dignity 8)

Balrog used to be pretty decent. I mean he looked like a big buff Mike Tyson at first. But then they made him look stupid and short looking. In SFII he literaly towered over everyone but Sagat. Balrog would get KO'd by Dudley in Round 1 anyways

Ono will be forced to use SF3 characters since the game takes place between 2 and 3 and there is nothing distant about Dudley. What is he going to do ? Bring back Balrog who s ucks compared to Dudley lolkage_53

Not to cause a riot, but Balrog ST >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dudley. Dudley is cool, but Balrog will always be the best 2D boxer. Also, I would rather for Capcom to force him to bring back parrying, then SF3 characters.

Tell me you did not just say that. Oh you just started a riot lol A one man riot! Balrog better then Dudley? No thank you :P

balrog can't take dudleyNickmanx5

To Dudley, Balrog is simply a punching bag that bleeds.

Even Umehara falls before his might.

Classic Terry or MOTW Terry.

Lucky for you I read Kanji...That isn't Umehara. It reads "Misawa" Anyways, this is about Dudley, not Ken.

Not really, his pants are caught in a wind tunnel though lol. Looks to be a little bit bulkier as well Not quite taking the juice like Terry did though lol.

never mind now that i think about it he look like his artwork.

SFIV looks really good in motion. People should really stop complaining specifically about the graphics for it. Blaxploitation
