5/30/2009 Arcade Infinity - More King of Fighters XII casuals 9

[jetaime8610]

ok good fight no good combo lollllllll

[takeaimnfire]

Lound thwee... Leady... Go! lol

[takeaimnfire]

This game is way better than people give it credit for. Even I mistakenly got rid of it prematurely. I re-bought it, and can't stop playing it. The critical counters are just awesome... I was sad to find out they ditched em in XIII.

[iyipibruno]

1:53 "BAITOOOLLAAAA!!"

Brazilians will laugh in 3...2...1...

[ragestreet]

Music sounds good but the models remind me a lot of wax statues come to life.

[apexpein39]

daimon looks like a chocolate marshmallow in pants. reiden at 5:13 with the finger pointing around the crowd is so heel-esque. Awesome

[apexpein39]

daimon looks like a chocolate marshmallow in pants

[Project005]

Here comes a new chalaynjer

[Uberboy07]

the little guy is fun to watch. :>

[TactMeyers]

Kensou nice look :O he seems like Li Shaoran xD i wonder if this time Kensou have more chances with Athena :P

Great matches great game, greetings.

[redmancalvin]

wtf happened to Kensou?? I thought it was a new player in action until i recognized the name. Nice stuff here looking forward to what comes next

[MakotoTsuguri]

@redmancalvin He's actually wearing his out fit from Psycho Soldier. Or more memorable as his Another Striker outfit from 2000.

[chantimothy]

now that iori is without his flame.... he must strengthen his finger nails

[Screwedup168]

Kyo was much more stronger in '99, '00, '01 and '02 this one is shittest one

[bostonian314]

Damn Raiden is no joke..very dangerous up close...a grappler to the fullest....

[gufitoxcapo]

this video title is:

"how to fuck the p2"

[gbahole1]

kensou changed...alot.

[soey98]

Raiden is soo pro!

[cridict]

I hope KOF 13 is better than this. Even though the gameplay was really good, the game as a whole was just disappointing.

[bran3500]

where is K =(

[TheKingoftheriff]

@bran3500 in 13 :P

[vladimirovitsj]

kyo ,k,and iori are my favorites

[blitz818]

somebody likes playing as iori...>> <<

[BlindDogg101]

raiden??? total rippoff from MK

[06G]

omg wtf happend with kof ..... nice graphics but where are the rest of the fighters poor move list ... compare this with kof 2002 ,'97 '98 ... btw best kof ever is 2002

[Mashiki]

@06G Think of KoF XII as a stepping block for KoF XIII. Look for some gameplay footage of KoF XIII on youtube and prepare to be wowed.

[TheKingoftheriff]

@06G 2k2 is a dream match. kof with stories always has less characters.

[MadSnake123]

Man, this game looked so awesome, but the crappy online totally killed for me, i can live without some characters like K', Vanessa, Mai or Mary, even i can live without a story or a final boss, as long as the gampley is good then i'm in, but the online totally screw this game for me, can't wait for XIII, i hope they fix the problem, because the game is already looking better than this one.

[TheBadhabit9]

Kyo and Lori are still my favorite duo from any fighting games this makes me want to go get this game KOF is a nice game

[ClutchModeEngaged]

Jon is a beast at KoFXII! Man, I can't wait for KoFXIII!

[Xecutionner2K]

I must be someone VERY VERY STRANGE, but imo this kof is one of the best ?

Yes ok i got strange taste, but i really FUCKING LOVE THIS KOF.

[PRpride20]

this is the best video quality ive ever seen for any fighting game posted on youtube. how did tu record it?

[DJRedrumofEPG]

Lol Raiden's so awesome

[DaRkXyStEr]

I really like the Iori and Kensou's new movesets in this game. I think Imma switch to those two in 13

[persona3se]

i want lien and mignon

[Urbanart90]

RALF IS ON ROIDS! geez SNK.

[HinataChan30]

@PSNXxBarretxX It seems to. Mature and Elisabeth are both more complete now. Ralf has got more moves now and Mai, King, and Yuri are in the game with six slots open for more characters.

[JasonWhiplash]

I liked KoFXII simply because they made all of the characters relatively balanced, so you had a lot more fair fights. To me, even though I love playing SFIV, they tweaked the game so you have four/five god characters, a couple mid characters, and then a ton of crap characters.

Not to mention there hasn't been anything as cool as the Critical Counter System in awhile. It's so satisfying to pull a counter and then go apeshit for five seconds free-forming combos.

[jelaninoel]

the clash part is cool but that combo thing is dumb. u land a lucky hit and mash HP 7 times then do a super. if u do a fancy combo u get less damage cuz u wasted time jumping and whatnot

[OLV16]

Ugh, I still can't believe the SNK folks actually took Iori's flame away for that gay guy. Seriously, imagine the amount of Iori fans compared to Ash fans... and also imagine the amount of fans complaining about Iori's new tiny tiny shirt....

[Drsalvador18]

this looks pretty lame

[nightmare674]

Iori is amazing!...Even without his powers!

Sorry for the bad English :P

[grassroots15]

@nightmare674 you actually wrote every word here perfectly, no need to apologize :D

[RottenAppleSeeds]

some of the characters really beefed up for this game.

[BigO2daG]

damn

ralf was so cool back in the days, now hes to pumped up, hes to FAT

[Makingnewnamesisdumb]

How does that make him not cool?

[LatisARG]

Looks like abobo from DD T_T

[ryuhoshi23]

kyo parece michael jackson

[askbob]

its much more difficult to master than Sf

[villainfromthelight]

is Juhn in this game? idk if I spelled his name right so don't freak out. haha

[gaboleon]

It looks fantastic, but aside from the graphics, nothing about this game feels "new". Really, nothing. I don't care much for the roster either.

[warbandit89]

@gaboleon I agree. Its been like this for the past 11 games.

[Pandaman64]

@gaboleon The combo system feels different, at least from the previous game.

Last game, BnB for EVERY CHARACTER in the game was Jump in C/D, standing C/D, command normal/special move. This combo system feels deeper.

No to mention the C+D 'parry' and the critical counter system. Plenty of new stuff here, as long as you don't count the game play modes.

[zztopis]

unused / removed characters in the games code: Vice, Hwa, Takuma, a boss, Dark/Orochi(?) Ash, Mai, King, Yuri, Classic Iori, and Billy were all planned and not included. There are 7 more empty spots with no character at all. Thats a total of 17 characters gone from the final version, 10 that had made it to planning and 7 that never even made it to the data. tKoF XII was originally planned to be the conclusion of the Ash saga

[OrgXIII4U]

Where did you get this info? From all indications, KOF XII was intended to save the same purpose as Neowave did in its generation: a medium for SNK to test the new consoles. The only two unused characters I've seen evidence of is K Dash and Mai Shiranui.

[lordshin]

source listing in the disc includes six other characters including billy kane and vice

[someguyhunter]

damn ash crimson looks like a total fag

[boothesquirrel]

thats what i look like irl

[SuperBlaze22]

As intended, but I'd find a more educated and civil term. Like " fem-boy "

How old are you people again ?

[thelionandthewolf]

Man, I just hope they add new characters to the next installment. This is one of the KOF with a reduced roster to choose from.

[ChileanIggy]

more than new characters, for the love of god they should give us well... a complete game.

Because as things stand, I paid 50 dollars for halfassed presentation (except for sprites and backgrounds), laggy multiplayer, and a laughable and mediocre single player campaign.

The fighting's still fun but man... the game as a whole just felt oh so incomplete.

[XxRelmxX]

you know it's like twice expensive and long to make 2d sprites well animated and more of this in HD than the same game in 3d ? that's one of the multiple reasons of the state of the actual game.

I guess we should give them time and cross our fingers that they could continue this series.

[Magegg]

with the new fighting systems of KOF and Street Fighter, a CvS3 would be great thing. Revenge Bar could be used for Critical counter and Ultras, and Focus attack can be combined with Guard Attack.

[Khomradeigor]

No Geese = fail

[sigma20xx]

They made Kensou cool as fuck in this version. He seems like he's really matured this time around.

[apexpein39]

@sigma20xx its way better , he looks serious

[xxxxkazuyaxxxx]

8:33 Andy could make another fireball before the first one is gone? :O

[Mrspinn21]

they need to make a new cvs for 360!!! :)

[SaintJohn86]

they make for both systems not just one

[deoyeu117]

wat web is that

[bargik]

kensou looks awesome here

[Otahell999]

snk probably could improve those fire/explosion effects, like the ones used in kyo or ralf's attacks....they look really crappy

[ecksyz]

here comes a new chall-ange-er

[FireCoTTon]

I always understand: Select your neighbour! XD

[TENINCHLUVABOY]

They took away lots of moves from 99% of the char' just so they don't have to spend time doing something new , mia is gone ,60 second rounds , negative stereotype stages.

[sinshenlong]

60 seconds standard in kof tho

bt i agree this game came too early needed 10 more characters at least

ah well 13 shud b awesome

[livefree79]

Im a street fighter fanboy,but i just recently bought this game and im having alot of fun playing it.Anyway i wish there were more King of fighters videos on this channel.Its great watching 2 players who actually know what theyre doing playing,makes for exciting matches.

[komot]

i don't like how its so flashy, some of the movies look hard to recognize. especially with that big flash when someone gets hit, its really just a distraction.

[c00lwatter]

THAT'S distracting to you? Have you ever played MvC2? The whole fucking game is a giant screen filled with blue and green flashes. Game caused epilepsy in laboratory monkeys.

[PopCan0]

your eyes must be fucked up then

REAL TALK

[GoldenJoe]

As much as I love KoF, I really don't like this art style. Some of the characters are almost unrecognizable, and not in a good way (Kensou, Athena). There are some major improvements to make up for it (Ash), but I dunno. This is just so much different than I was expecting.

[guayaba209]

Uh...your dumb kof has never had good sprites to define any character now that they do ur seeing them for who they really are.

[GoldenJoe]

Wow, what an open minded guy. So sorry for having an opinion on the internet. Good thing there's people like you on the lookout.

[phantomofakina]

KOFXI had a decent set of sprites, they were well done and weren't just a recycling of a previous KOF sprites.

[guayaba209]

decent -.- sf2 had better sprites compared to the old KOF

[phantomofakina]

Clearly you have never played KOFXI

[batosaisw]

Man... Kyo always gets great jackets.

[alexandre8448]

gotta ask where he gets them, i want to get one. THEY ARE AWESOME!! i wonder how much does one of them cost.

[umdum08]

Most of these characters seem so similar to SF4 characters, like that raiden guy's moves are very similar to Zangiefs (like the air kick + throws)

[davidOGmayne]

That's because when KOF first started they ripped off almost everything from Street Fighter *cough*Ryo*cough*. It was common practice back then. Initially they would have had the same basic fighting system with a light medium and heavy hit but Capcom threatened to sue so they just left it light and heavy.

[SanadaWolfX]

Ryo was created as a joke to make fun of Capcom, then Capcom countered with Dan, a parody of the Kyokugen Team.

[phantomofakina]

0.o Ryo was from Art of Fighting, he is not an original KOF character.

Also, Capcom cannot sue over something like a control scheme, something like that is fair use. Its like McDonald's suing BK because they use meat in their burger patties.

[dantemustdie00]

If Capcom wanted to sue SNK, they would have done it Long ago, but they didn't really mind it, all they did was make up that joke to Robert, Dan and that was it. They never had any issues with each other, why would they make Capcom vs SNK games if they weren't on friendly terms?

[wildfire3969]

ehh no Ryo is from Art of Fighting and he was created from the same developers and artists who worked on SF2. Just like how BB and GG are similar cause they are made by the same people. And the made it light,heavy so they can use the same arcade machine (multi-game one) they had been using which had 4 buttons.

[iCenn5]

Ryo is from Art of Fighting.

[iCenn5]

Ryo is from Art of Fighting.

[Chaoskae]

raiden*

[Chaoskae]

jon is good with raideb

[randomcitizen19]

I'm loving this game.

[KillerOmen]

damn, we need more fighting games with hyper engines like blazblue

[romancandle255]

1:53  ...... loooooks awesome

[KloudyWoolf]

what happened to Iori Yagami's pyrokinetic abilities?

[posterboy0007]

If what I read was correct Ash stripped Iori of his flame. Or should it be "flames?"

[posterboy0007]

If what I read was correct Ash stripped Iori of his flame. Or should it be "flames?"

[makkymokky]

how come Ash look like a fag ?

[Vexxexcellence]

In recent years no one really has release anything that can be really considered a fighter...now since the fighting genre has been brought back to the main stream of thigns, lets se if they can keep it. And this game would be the perfect way of doing so

[posterboy0007]

Is Ash Crimson a male or female?

[GReeeeNCREW]

male...

[posterboy0007]

Oh now see...why would...couldn't they have...didn't...that's just wrong. He's more feminine than some of the female characters.

[WinterAyars]

Yeah, he does it on purpose :P

[willito215]

this game looks unbelieveable. this is a great year for fighting games. THA MECHANICK xbl gamertag

[MasaruKato82]

Making Ralf and Clark bigger is one thing, making them look like the freakin' Hulk is another!

[CurlehMustash]

...

since when is kensou a midget?

[chaosmah]

y iori look so bad

[SDSOverfiend]

@1:09 is the gayest shit people will get caught with. Because of Sie's weird hitboxes with his new stance animations.Raiden's command grabs seems to be slamming opponents on their feet rather than neck. Still no burn effect from characters flames.

Robert with a Ken style uppercut is fucking lame. He came to far to just go back to becoming that basic play mechanic wise sorry. I also don't really like some of andy animations as beautiful as some may look. He seems to be uncomfortable in this.

[SDSOverfiend]

I can't front i love what i see but my man's abusing that Kensou combo to the point where i can't stand him.I seems every fucking combo starts of with a crouch light link into the same shit until a custom combo is built. This Tap tap bullshit ain't the way man. Damn i can't stand the "Safe Era" of fighters.

[SeatBeltTank]

Thank you i completely agree

[SDSOverfiend]

Yeah i can see the bullshit happening already. While i love the game i will call a spade a spade. ITs not all peachy because if bullshit ass Chin can get a overhaul so can others. Reverting fan favs to "robots" is not a good look.

[martinyork]

wow is Best how Kof 2002

[duim157]

2002>>>>>shit>>>>XII

[Staroutlawjames]

Raiden is so brutal is he easy to use or is this player just really good and making it look easy

[Staroutlawjames]

Sei is like a more Asian Fei Long

[Surkoplit]

this game looks sik, but it looks like low hit come out of literally no where lol (just like Carl from BB)

Fire balls dont seem that cheap you can just destroy them ...

[themordora]

KOF will always rock!!!!!

[onimateria]

Odor...

Lound one! Leady~ Go!

[zooks808]

I'm looking forward to this, however I wish Oswald was in this game :(

[LaFamiliaKOF]

oOH we are wainting on this amazing game to come out this july the 20th! yeah

[WizzyWhipitWonderful]

SNK kept it 2D??! This, in itself makes it visually better than SF4, which reminds me of cartoons.

[BIGGAHITZ]

Totally agree. I hate SFIV's art style. I wish they went with the full 2D look.

[I9IIEIIYIIEIIS]

fireballs look cheap in this game.

[crowwinters]

lol what? you can punch fireballs in KOF12 and win. how do they look cheap?

[Kijiyama]

yes.... like they aren't cheap in all other fighting games, like the SF series....

[largemoose]

Is it me, or from watching a few match vids, is a good Raiden sick in this game?

[omegaclepto1]

No more character ???? NO CODE ? no billy ,no heirden this KOF feel the SSSSSSSHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIT !!!!

[s1ms07]

why they make goro so big?

[omarslimani]

Kensou's look & gameplay looks really nice. SNK already did a good job with him in kofXI by mixing a lot of moves from other kof's. But now, he's completely different with a really good-looking attire. & it's been a while since I didn't picked him in my team (that was since kof 99 when he lost a lot of his moves).

For the two others characters, I think I'll go back to my kof 98 team since there's no Yamazaki or Vice to play with :-(.

But I'm really eager to play this game !

[LambOfGodFn]

Terry is the character for Noobs just like Ryu is for SF....simple and good enough for a noob to be able to spam good...except u cant spam in KOF to win......spam = epic phail in KOF

[xchargerOUx]

XD...If you can't beat them spammers then you don't need to be playing at all...no offense!..

I mean, honestly!..Who can't beat Ryu or Terry if you know what there going to do if you played with them?..

[IL0veVide0Games]

Yup... you hit the nail right on the head...

[WinterAyars]

Uhhhh, Daigo?

[Kibbelz]

Wow, this game looks friggin' sick. I've never really been that much into the King of Fighters games, mostly due to the fact that I didn't even know King of Fighters existed till like 7 years ago lol. Growing up I was always an SF cat. I've play some of the SNK cross over games with Street Fighters but that's it. I'm definitely gonna have to pick this game up, both combat and the graphics look too damn sweet.

[TonyZeroman999]

1:17 xD smack to the face dirty style

[thefatman69dude]

terry bogard rules all

[SmartFist]

Greatly skilled players, that's the shyt that makes me want to watch more.

[xchargerOUx]

Is the KOF like the Marvel of Japan?...cause comparing it to street fighter...They only have powerful techniques!..KOF's have powers like so...Kyo,K',Iori,Ash, Athena, etc...

[xchargerOUx]

I always thought ASH was a poser..looks like a faggot..

[GarredHATES]

id bang him

[LambOfGodFn]

ash is a chick

[Aelijah22]

no he's NOT!

he's just gay. :)

[75touch]

ash has a penis

[WinterAyars]

I think he dresses like that on purpose.

[OaxisixaO]

Oh my god ! KOF 94, 95, 96, 97,98, 2001, 2002, bla, bla, and Goro Daimon have the same fucking Special Move. When this guys gonna really make a KOF whit a revolucionary moves and Special Moves I´m still waiting and waiting...

Ralf is not a soldier, now it`s a kind of Anabolic beast

and were`s Gato, B.Jenet, Kim Dong Hwan, Kim Jae Hoon, Hotaru Futaba, Rock, Freeman we need a new generation of characters. I don´t wanna see Raiden I wanna see Tizoc, Alba, Soire I don´t know.

I`m still waiting...

[Zappafan1980]

Garou may look good and it has some great Characters but it much to sloow for my taste it play like a lag Game or something

KoF 12 will be great like KoF 98 and 99 and XI allready were great Games

But i miss Mai, Blue Mary and King in KoF XII please SNK Playmore put them in the Game

[onimateria]

Well they DO need to sell KoF 13 somehow...

I kid, I kid...

Though what I say is probably true.

[LambOfGodFn]

all those characters u listed suck balls....and i do agree w/ what they did to Rafl...he looks like Zangief LOL.....but yea the shouldn't have had Raiden in there...they could have had the Orochi team (Yashiro, Chris, Shermie) that woulsd have been an amazing team for KOF 12

[haosmark]

This KOF reminds me of KOF 94, best fighting game of it's time.

[LuigiBoVer2]

Is there a way to tell how much time you have to do your CC?

[IchorDarkness]

Does iori still have his reverse kick?

[snkfiend]

Yes.

[IchorDarkness]

I only ask because I haven't seen it used yet. Can he still backdash with it?

[snkfiend]

Maybe but I haven't seen ppl use it often so sorry for right now.

[Lancevfx]

lol on 1:53 thats amazing. He made the attack look like the KO sign after lol.

[sergio311]

Arcade Infinity ! you got any Vids of Dough ?

that Iory player ?

[segatasanshir0]

man i though Oscars line up is good but i want to switch kyo out for dou long. i hope hes a good character.

and Oscar seemed to have a hard time with his cc's? poor guy. lol =D but at least hes hanging with those beastly players. props.

[cnel90]

Awesome Raiden! :D

[segatasanshir0]

yeah it was. but i though it was over for him in the last round when iori's CC hit. but he did one to many punches before the grab. crouch hard slash. super. lol oh well. hahah XD

[Yutentili]

hey Jon man why you switch Terry for Raiden man come' on dont do that you had a kick ass team all cool, and now Raiden just dont mix in.

[cutestviet]

i didn't swtich terry out...the original team will always be andy , terry and robert....i just try to switch it up a bit whenever i am bored.

[Yutentili]

awesome your a great player my man what i love about the way you play is that you are pure combos man it makes everything look way better and that how it should be cause you enjoy the game even more. Your are an honorable player i'm a big fan. By any chance will you be playing on PS3?

[VidsbyJuice]

you must be a pretty righteous cat to be able to give props when its due to a great player. Right on brotha, right on.

[oroxianan]

I love your Raiden btw :3

[Ryuugan1000]

wooooo ese ralf le saco la mierdaaa

[koollord]

what happened to ralf

[BlazingAceNelson]

6:09

The reason why Rob Garcia deserves to be in the game. (Slight bias considering that he's been one of my favorites since '95) Bias aside, that combo was one of the best I've seen.

[Akumashadow]

Move Street Fighter, move Blazblue.....THIS IS THE REAL KING OF FIGHTERS!!!!!!!!!........

[DrShiboopieSF]

This coming from a guy who's YouTube ID has Akuma in his name.
