Support NeoGAF

[SkylineRKR]

Nothing known yet besides this teaser.

I grew up with Fatal Fury in the arcade. This makes me misty eyed. The graphical style aside, but lets go!

 

[Dr.D00p]

Sorry, but 3D Neo Geo fighters are completely soulless & charmless compared to their beautiful 2D pixel art forebears.

 

[Georges Chiellins]

Seems ugly.

 

[abstract alien]

Looks typical, but I'm glad it exists. Will I actually buy it? Not a chance. I do hope for it's success though. The amount of money I dumped into this series when I was young is crazy.

[SkylineRKR]

I think with KOF XIII they were on the right track. But its perhaps too expensive and time consuming for them to go with that style.

I think Shodown looks good though.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Fatal Fury was amazing back in the day. This looks like cheap crap.

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

But its perhaps too expensive and time consuming for them to go with that style.

That's exactly what the complainers don't understand. Asking SNK to take a gigantic financial risk to potentially destroy the company yet again because they don't like how it looks. It's a miracle we are even getting this game at all.

Agreed. This game won't have 10% of SF's player count. Its too much to go for more and they are not ArcSys (which is bigger too). A sequel to Garou is crazy this day and age. I still have the OG, Special and 3 on AES. I love this series.

So? Either do it properly or don't do it at all.
Nobody's forcing them to do a subpar product.

 

[Alan Silvestro]

Looks like a KOFXV DLC

 

[SidViscous]

They reused the existing models but slapped a cell shader on the top, and not even a good one.

Are they just going to remove characters from KOF and call it a new game? Unless there is some drastic gameplay differences or a story mode or something I can see this flopping big time as a cash grab.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I wished the Neo Geo was cheaper, caught on, and got Capcom and Konami arcade game support at home. Anyway, its just a matter of time before they come out with a cheap 3d metal slug

 

[Wolfpact1983]

I am just happy that we are getting a new fatal fury after 24 years.

 

[poodaddy]

I'm in, I don't get the negativity either. Some of you fellas are a little bit unreasonable. Garou's one of the all time greats, if this is even half as good we're in for an instant classic.

 

[Naked Lunch]

Mark of the Wolves always stood side by side with Street Fighter III in my eyes.

Love that its coming back.
Hate the cheap 3d cookie cutter modern SNK generic look.
Ill leave it at that.

 

[KiteGr]

I've missed 2D graphics.

 

[saintjules]

Sorry, but 3D Neo Geo fighters are completely soulless & charmless compared to their beautiful 2D pixel art forebears.

Agree! This would have been amazing if it looked something like Guilty Gear Strive for example. Goddamn.

 

[LazyParrot]

So? Either do it properly or don't do it at all.

Whether they go 3D with Fatal Fury or an entirely new IP, the "2D or Bust" crowd will bitch about it either way, so they may as well go for it.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Doesnt look great.

Wen bloody roar comeback?

 

[Lone Wolf]

The SNK fighters peaked with Mark of the Wolves and KOF 13.

This is what I'm afraid they might do especially after they added a Garou team to KOF XV. I know they used to do this sort of thing with some of their 2d fighters too but those actually looked good for their time and the stages often looked impressive. I'm not sure if these are the same models but I am hoping to see a lot more improvement in their 3d work.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Glad it exists, will buy. Also, the generic 3D look is disappointing.

 

[MasterDerico]

Looks great, day 1. SNK is the goat!

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

For god sake please don't make the same mistakes like you did with the latest KOF Games SNK.

Too few stages and the background crowds(at least one consoles) are rendered in 30fps. This Shit is pissing me off.

 

[cireza]

These games all the look the same, and they don't look great. KoF XIII was the shit.

 

[Northeastmonk]

MotW is fantastic. This looks like a budget game. I haven’t purchased the last two KOF. I bought 2002 UM when that came out on PSN. The new games look cheap.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

 

[NeverYouMind]

I think Shodown looks good though.

King of Fighters XII/XIII pixel art is extremely oversaturated, often contains too many obnoxious animated elements, hideously exaggerated proportions for characters, and many cut moves.


Meanwhile in King of Fighters XV you have:

 

[Bring Back Scalebound]

Looks great! I'm excited to see whatever new characters they come up with for this game.

 

[MrA]

Its too late for that

[The Pleasure]

City of the wolves gonna be hype, but have you seen ASS CATCHEM trolling at Evo?

 

[majorgamer10]

Didn't they show

Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves​

last EVO?

 

[Bring Back Scalebound]

Didn't they show

Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves​

last EVO?

It was just an artwork of the game, announcing that a new Fatal Fury/Garou had been green-lit.

This EVO is where they actually showed the game (Teaser).

 

[Werewolf Jones]

What European techno tune are SNK gonna "sample" for Rock this time, ResuRection?

 

[Frayed Ends of Sanity]

Honestly I don't think it looks that bad. Sure it might be the KOF 15 models with a new cel shaded filter on them but it's not like SNK didn't do that with their sprites back in the day. It blows my mind we're getting a new Fatal Fury game. Hopefully if it's good, it'll find an audience. Fatal Fury is more niche than Samsho and KOF so I'm not too sure. Maybe if no other big fighting games are released during that time frame, the wider FGC might embrace it

 

[SkylineRKR]

The Fatal Fury graphics have the Shinkiro art over it, look at the lighting. Its more pronounced than in KOF XV.

 

[PeterBazooka]

This looks like shit. Huge disappointment.

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

ugly as sin

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Guys...

This game will be a Bomb In Mexico

 

[[Sigma]]

Having slowed the trailer down, I think it's slightly improved in almost every way in comparison to KOFXV. But im not that impressed with it still. I'll deal with it though because I love Fatal Fury/KOF/Samsho. I love the name of the game by the way lol.

 

[The Pleasure]

ugly as sin

Still animates better than Guilty Gear

 

[miklonus]

Granblue after Marvel dog?

 

[Soltype]

King of Fighters XII/XIII pixel art is extremely oversaturated, often contains too many obnoxious animated elements, hideously exaggerated proportions for characters, and many cut moves.


Meanwhile in King of Fighters XV you have:

It's like Street fighter 4 all over again, ugly 3D character models, bad graphics and flashy supers and everybody falling for it.

 

[NeverYouMind]

It's like Street fighter 4 all over again, ugly 3D character models, bad graphics and flashy supers and everybody falling for it.

Except they do not have the troll proportions of Street Fighter IV and the resolution and color are on point. Also, most animation studios could not produce something this lit. Compared to the ugliness of KoF XII/XIII sprites they are like the skilled paintings of Monet to the works of the hack Picasso.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I've missed 2D graphics.

There's no 2D graphics in the teaser.

 

[Icymanipulator]

That’s a hard pass from me
Sorry

 

[Celcius]

I'm down for fatal fury, let's go

 

[kunonabi]

Fatal fury has always been trying to implement 3D movement so it makes more sense than not to go 3D. Im still worried it's just going to be garou 2.0 instead of pushing the envelope like the older games did but who knows.
