This is a bit late, but fantastic job with the article. I appreciate my inclusion as well as the link to SK, and I'm very pleased with this final result. I'll be passing it along to everyone I know who shares the same love for 2D games. :D Hey! This is a bit late, but fantastic job with the article.

LOL You already know my stance on 2D gaming and it's nice to know developers are returning to the format, leaving it behind as if it were archaic. I would think when Castlevania, Symphony of the Night - waaaaaaaaay back when on the PS1, proved that you can have a great 2D title on a (back then) next gen system, that it proved the style would never be old. And it really, it's a shame as well as a blessing that it took the iPod to make developers realize that 2D gaming was ever washed up. I hope that some of the big developers look back to 2D to help fill in the gaming gap, especially when waiting for a BIG 3D title or to really show off something 2d-riffic. (Another Castlevania Symphony of the night? Contra even?). The point is, it doesn't always have to be about 3D, graphics do not make a great game lol Hey didn’t we just have this discussion?

That reviewer obviously did not play the game. Sure there were missing moves, a crap one player mode, and an (initial) laggy online mode, but like you said, it was TIGHT. Good combat system, and of course, great visuals. A shame. When the KOX XII reviews first started rolling out, a major (I’m blanking on the exact outlet) gave it 1.5 stars. WTF!

If they had added a better single player and online experience it mightve got slammed less but as a local versus game it was crazy fun. “the criminally underrated King of Fighters XII”
