I bought the double pack. There's probably a thread, but I didn't see it.
I like KOF 2003, but it feels like an old man with a shot of viagra. Which some people do like, admittedly, because he might die and leave you his money.
It feels fresher now. I like Ash (predictably), and I like that other guy. the punchy one. Shen something.
But the graphics, they've just got to go. Even compared to CvS 2, they're so dated. The sprites are small, the resolution is low, the colors are bland, and the effects are tired.
Even so - it plays like KOF. I can beat people at it. I like it.

Oh, I know. And that's compared to a technological dinosaur like CvS2.

I can't bear to watch Gato's supers, in part because of how nice they looked in Garou, but they are just intrinsically ugly in 2k3. The palm strike one has easily the lamest attempts at spark and lightning I've seen yet.

Right now, even with 2k3 set at 50 cents, the 50 cents bootleg KOF 2k4 Special Edition (with hack job animated gif porn backgrounds etc) is KICKING ITS BEHIND in terms of play at my arcade. All the KOF players that are left that still play KOF play that. Then again, the NeoWave machine is a dollar.
You like Shen? I thought he seemed kinda... boring; not many special moves or variety among them.
I'm starting to like Rumble Fish.
God help me.

yeah, I feel like 2k3 is way easier...
I'm gonna have to try out some of these graphical settings, I haven't messed with them.
I mentioned CvS 2 because I've been playing it a lot lately. The girl I'm dating is really good at it (yeah, there are girls that model and play 2D fighters. Well, at least one.), and actually beats me about 60% of the time.
Regardless, to 2k3, I like shen for his offensiveness too. dou lon or whatever...I can't get into him. His specials are good, but he seems a little scattered in terms of what he can do, to me.
I wanna hear more about this piratey 2k4 though...are there any "new characters" for it? or am I missing yet another thread?
dude NOBODY plays KOF at the arcade I go to in SF, everyone's on Cvs2 or MvC2. Kinda sad...on the bright side though, any time somebody does play there, I win. haha. people are forgetting how to play it...

Late? The game only came out like a month ago.
What happened to the last girl. And does the new girl play because of her x boyfriend who made her get into it.
I've hardly met any girls who actually get into game on their own-- One examples are a couple of girls who mostly just went to the arcades in hopes to meet a boy.
