Going back 3 months ago i was watching a KOF12 trailer and i about shit my pants. The beautiful art work and classic moves got me super excited. Now fast forward to now i`m sitting in my room looking at the fugly title screen of KOF12. My regret for buying this game gets stronger everyday, Before i got this game  i thought id get KOF 98` just to get back into the pace of KOF. That game on XBLA is $10 and i still have a hard time recommending this game to any KOF fan. The online on both of these games are horrid and its a disappointment. KOF12 has great potential the 3 on 3 combat is great and exciting but the little things we have grown a custom too like great looking menus and a story mode fall flat in this game. So if there`s no good offline content than the online has to be spectacular too make this game shine, but as the rest of the game it has no love or heart. sure the designers but beautiful artwork in there but it looks like WORk, not LOVe. So maybe this patch they speak of can redeem the online but as far as i`m concerned dont buy this game unless it drops its price $30-$40  and fixes its online then ill suggest it, but until then keep playing balzblue and Street fighter 4 :)

yes there the best i heart them i spent many nights at pizza hut playing  SF2 with friends i love the adrenaline from fighting with another person and when you win a match against a good player
