Ignition Entertainment, the U.S. publisher of King of Fighters XII, has deftly handled the promotion of SNK Playmore’s much-anticipated hi-definition fighter by catering to its dedicated fanbase. As detailed a few days ago, Ignition Entertainment allowed the fans to decide which box art would grace the covers of the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 home conversions, but it left out one important, Ron Paulian candidate: the kickin’ Japanese versions.
Never let it be said that Ignition Entertainment doesn’t listen to the cries of the people; it’s reopened the voting so that you may choose between the Japanese console art and the ones that the fans previously selected to highlight the American ports.
And in case you’re wondering, I’m totally voting for the Japanese version of each cover – - they’re far more dramatic. Besides, I’m all about the Ash Crimson. He so dreamy. Head over to the Ignition Entertainment’s King of Fighters XII Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 forums to cast your vote by 5/22.
