MI is out since 2 days in japan .
Well it's the japanese version only . I didn't play it ofcourse . But I found this review which is the first review of the game . It's not made by me , but made with "Shin Kyo Kusunagi"
"Well firstly I didn't expect the game to be as good as this.
At first when it was said to be in 3D I was skeptical and I'm sure many KOF fans feel the same. Then when I saw the video clips that came out early this year the battle was rather smooth and amusing/eye-catching but I still feared it would be like Street Fighter EX (not that it was bad at all but the gameplay was alittle different from standard Street Fighter). This was all put to side when I just gotten the game today.
I've used 3 characters so far (Terry, Rock and K) beating the game with two characters I must say the fight lives up to the video clips standard and to me, KOF standard.
The game is fast I give you that however I'm not sure this applies to all of you but I could execute moves perfectly just as it was in a 2D KOF. There are a few different things in the game compared to the 2D KOF though.
-Barrier around the ring. The limit of your fighting space. This time around unlike normal KOFs getting cornered is REALLY BAD
-Characters can now be hit even while on the ground
-Rolling doesn't go through opponents like 2D KOF. Probably will rety this when opponent is stationary.
-1 vs 1. No 3 vs 3 (I'm sure everyone knows this)
-It's 3D KOF
I can't say much for the storyline but it is atleast slightly better from what I expected when I first heard of what the story was going to be like. Anyone expecting this game knows or probably already has the feeling that there won't be much of stories in this game seeing as Alba and Soiree are the main stars of the game.
The only thing I find pretty useless are the evasive skills (evading left and right) as so far it has little use for me. I'll probably work abit more on it to see how it goes.
Overall the game is in 3D and feels 3D but at the same time 2D. Probably people and their only complain would be the storyline or such. Boss still is cheesy but lucky not that cheesy as previous KOF bosses.
As an avid KOF gamer since KOF 94 and before I say this game is definately a must have for KOF fans and fighting fans alike. Don't let the 3D discourage you. It does have it's own 3D enviroment feel but it's 2D at heart."
From what I've read I really want to play it , and here is a question : Does anyone know if Duke in this game is the same Duke from SNK's old game "Burning fight" ?
