awsome in theory. but heres where the game takes a nosedive, mai is gone, yuri is gone. added are characters im sure are famous however id have liked to see a few more of the favorites.
the story is, 3 fighters join a tournament. ok we get it, but each fighter has a STORY right? well by now snk has decided we should kno terry andy joe ryo robert & kyo's stories so this is a generic fighting story.
the unlockables are galleries, eh it ok.
no bossmatch eh i guess,
snk kof games never had much of an ending unless you used teams (andy terry joe, robery ryo, takuma, ect)
online play is the main thing here, love it, but thats what the game has no soloability, no pre determined teams,
all in all its a great game to play online but if you cant play it online your in for a letdown.
on the upside graphics are pretty good, sounds great,
replayablitity eh 3 out of 5 only due to the respect i have & love for snk games, i DO kind of regret buying kof12 but it is a nice change of pace & ill probably end up getting mvc2 but in a few months
I thought KoF12 was rather lame. I thought the backgrounds were great, character sprite improved, but for an Xbox 360 system or a PS3 system you shouldnt have the apparent lines in the characters. That annoyed me. I'd hate to compare, but SF4 sprite are great. SF4 is still a 2d game with 3d looks. Sound affects on KoF12 were kinda blah as well. When I punch/kicked an opponent I didnt get the feeling that I made a heavy impact.
