King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match finally released on PS4 with rollback netcode. Physical edition to go up for pre-order at Limited Run Games later today for North America. Pix'n Love (?) to handle physical editions for Europe.

@e_zed_eh_intern bought the digital version earlier. I'm having a blast with this. I'm looking forward to actually start learning the game sometime soon, I already got some tutorials that the KOF community made. Also, the game looks so good, the backgrounds especially hold up quite well.

Do the last three MKs(9-10-11) have campaings where the character that you will play is already chosen according to the story progress? Like Injustice campaigns.
-
@scotty
Yep, each chapter has a focus on a different character
-
Great! Then I want to play their campaigns because I'm intrigued by them.
-
@scotty Ye the campaign's for the recent MK games are great. Don't forget to read Blood Ties. It links the story from 9 to X.

Spoiler alert!! Street Fighter V last character leaked and WOW, I thought I was disappointed by the Borderlands 3 DLC. It blows my minds that Street Fighter is basically the face of fighting games but
Tekken is getting guests from SF, KOF, Final Fantasy and the Waking Dead
Mortal Kombat has every guest character you could ever want
Smash Bros Ultimate
And SF gets nobody. Now there are clearly 2 possible reasons: nobody will share or Capcom isn’t asking. And I am pretty sure the latter is more likely. Not to say they are the big kid and can demand anything but you have to think somebody would want to work with them. So then why? Are they trying to preserve their story and universe? Because those are both awful and 0% of the reason people play SF. I seriously have no idea why - beyond maybe pride. And if they still have so much pride in this franchise to think they are a cut above after SFV and comparing ot to its contemporaries, just, fuck.

@e_zed_eh_intern I think it is more likely that Capcom isn't asking.
Did V have any guest characters that weren't from another Capcom owned property?
-
@e_zed_eh_intern
Awhile back Ono said he wouldn't have guest fighters in numbered Street Fighter titles, unless they come from a franchise linked to Street Fighter (Final Fight, Rival Schools for instance) however with Ono leaving you'd think that door would open for season 5, or the very least for Street Fighter 6

Soooo, it sounds like Eleven is not the fifth character?
Anyways, I loved this presentation. The new mechanics looks insanely good. I somewhat take back my previous rage but we will see how this all plays out. I don't know if I like Rose's Soul Satellite being a V-Skill. That thing already killed the hype of pro matches as an ultra. With people able to call it out at will, we will see. I do like her air fireball.
-
So it's actually 6 characters
-
@dmcmaster Yeah so I am assuming Eleven will just be built around X-Copy.
-
Honestly any homage to Twelve from Third Strike is fine in my books.
-
ELEVEN IS MY NEW MAAAAAAIN!!!!
*warps back into the shadows
-
Guess that's this years Vist from Sleepy out of the way
-
Looks like SNK have been working on rollback netcode for their KOF XV. This is the best news I have heard about KOF XV yet!
-
WePlay's bringing the LAN tourneys back. I missed the MK tourney that was like a few weeks ago, that seemed pretty hype from the clips I have seen.

Street Fighter V news:
- Rose releases April 19
- Oro gameplay shown including V-Triggers and V-Skills
- Akira gameplay teaser shown followed by VT2 shown at very end of stream - Rival Schools fans will be pleased... I think?
Good stream. Rose looks super scary and I like that Oro has his orb and Tengu Stones in V-Skill / V-Trigger, making them more about utility than if they were a CA.

Not a big fan after they kept this under wraps so long. Too generic for my liking but at least we know now.

@e_zed_eh_intern
That a Street Fighter 6 character is coming to 5?
Youtube VideoHe looks alright, and maybe it's just me but seems like he'll play like a Tekken character from SFxTK or I'm just imagining it.
