Wow! New DLC Characters revealed for KOF XIII. This rumor has been running around the grapevine for quite a while now but these videos confirm the speculation for both NESTS Kyo and Mr. Karate. Check out their cool NEO MAX specials!

I have around $6 in my PSN wallet from some special promo. I'm definitely getting flames Iori day one.

Rekkas of doom!

CD, can you tell if input windows have been extended or if any other timing has been messed with? Just curious.

That sounds awesome, CD. I'm so hype right now. I thought I wasn't going to be able to get the game until December, but I was able to pull some things together and I pre-ordered yesterday.

Very glad to hear it. SNK and the KOF series need our support more than ever guys (and gals). And this game is an excellent product to back it up especially with it's 50 dollar price tag and free 4 disc sound track CD collection (which SO cool btw if you do manage to get it!). If this game does well, then the skies the limit to where SNK goes from here. Kei Yamamoto (KOF XIII game designer) has said that they may be in the planning stages to make a Garou MOW sequel as well as highly requested sequel to Neo Geo Battle Coliseum!!! I can you imagine those game for 2012 So please jump in and grab KOF XIII for yourselves! I haven't had such a fun time with a fighter like this in ages. The games visual presentation is beautiful, nostalgic and inviting with it's gorgeous hi res 2D visuals, the game is simple and intuitive yet SO deep, and the overall package is finely polished

Get HYPE for sure!!!

CD, can you tell if input windows have been extended or if any other timing has been messed with? Just curious.

Well if you mean during offline play then of course there has been tweaks to that extent but it's marginal and overall very effective to better balance the game. Every character has received slight changes to their arcade counterpart and the community have been quite positively receptive to the known changes.

In the meantime here are some pics to KOF XIII retail box. I personally prefer the 360 artwork over PS3's. Plus the green box really really makes the artwork shine with Ash Crimson's green flames and all. It's quite fitting IMO!

^awesome.

but i'll be getting the PSN version for those who wants to do battle.

[wip3outguy7]

Yeah, PStripple for me. I'm so glad phaedrus talked me into getting that inPin adapter a few months ago.

After looking at that box, I'm torn on which version to get.

[noiseredux]

the 360 artwork is definitely better.

That said, I'm also getting the PS3 version of course.

I'm sad that I've missed out on the soundtracks though.

[wip3outguy7]

I got a text from GS about an hour ago. My preorder should be available first thing tomorrow. I may actually get the soundtracks.
