2009 is looking to be a spectacular year for the Return of Fighting Games. Not that last year was terrible, but one too many boob and/or gimmicky crossovers just didn't do it for me. Having a fully HD Street Fighter at the tailend was nice, even if the game's 'rebalanced' mode is atrocious (yes Sirlin, you failed). With a NEW Street Fighter not just on the way, but in full and glorious 3D it looks like SNK/Playmore will have lucious and glorious 2D all to its self.
The King of Fighters XII is nearly here, and here's hoping for a full and playable home version before Summer. The Japanese trailer above may be long (and are those missing animation frames I'm spotting?), but fans of the franchise will shed tears of nostalgic joy as many favorite faces show up. Time to push the Play Button!
