www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96825Take it with a pinch of salt and remember not all the details may be right... but if it is true then holy jeebus!!! An arranged soundtrack for KOF 2003 is great enough (see my thoughts on the one for SS Zero in the other thread  ), but possible hi-res sprites and 3D backgrounds... please tell me this is true... pleeeeeeease  Kaz

Awesome. But I'm wondering if it'll be like this if a port for ssv special is made.

I doubt the sprites will look better. If they aren't making an effort for an arcade release why buff it up for ps2. I hope kof 04 will finally go high res though.

whats the big deal with 3d backgrounds? i would rather have the original arcade game on ps2
But, the 3d backgrounds would be nice, and maybe it would make sony allow it on ps2 ;D ;D ;D ;D

It's not the 3D backgrounds so much (2002 on PS2 had those anyway and they were reasonable), it's more the hi-res sprites and arranged soundtrack. I have my doubts about hi-res sprites, but it might be possible... for all we know SNK might have been working on them for 2004, and if they have they might decide to use the ones they have made for the PS2 version of 2003. Wishful thinking I know, but it could happen Whichever way, I can't wait for the arranged soundtrack!!! ;D Kaz |

I'm trying to not get so excited considering it's snkp where talkin about but maybe they'll atleast make the sprites look alot cleaner like they would look using some options in an emulator. Btw, this is what magic-box says: "-SNK Playmore announced they will release the PS2 port of the arcade fighting game The King of Fighters 2003 in Japan on October 28, similar to the previous PS2 ports, KOF2003 will feature new 3D backgrounds, arranged soundtracks and a classic 3 vs 3 Team Fighting Mode."  |

Yeah it does look like the hi-res sprites thing is bullshit (probably just hi-res character art like the other KOF games), but every report has said there will be arranged music, so I am VERY happy indeed and really excited about hearing it. KOF 2003 had a superb soundtrack imho, and definitely got things well back on track after 2001/2002, which were CRAPTACULAR and average respectively.

Kaz Hmm... i dont care much for the old skool style music, but arranged soundtracks will be very nice for the ps2 release. I pretty much always new that kof2003 wouldnt get the hi res sprites treatmeant  oh well |
