Really hoping that a new Samsho somehow incorporates Draco from Sen. Is there anything more deliciously anachronistic than a composite Italian western outlaw with a repeating rifle in 1791? Speaking of new(ish) SNK characters, I’m really interested in seeing the actual new characters in KOF XIV. Handicapped boxer and Russian billionaire especially.
RIP TIZOC, LONG LIVE KING OF DINOSAURS
I’m really feeling the PS1 CG Cutscene look of this game now.
I’m guessing KING OF DINOSAURS is to Tizoc as Raiden is to Big Bear. Tizoc turned rudo, which hopefully implies Big Bear is in this game. Terry reverting to the Marty McFly FF1 look is an odd choice.

Idk, maybe it’s the new camera framing and the updated animations but it looks significantly less shitty than the early videos. (at least during standard gameplay, not the character closeups)
Yeah, I don’t know what changed but it’s definitely looking better.
I wouldn’t even call it PS1 CG cutscene look in action, it seems closer to higher res Max Impact now. Or maybe just early (lower budget) PS2 CG cutscene now?
Also, nice to see Ralf and Clark cut back on the steroids they were on in XII and XIII and got different outfits again.
I know what i’m about to say it is what they are doing, but it sets off alarm bells in my brain that they are just using the 3D Skeletons from 3D/2D over need 3D models and it freaks me out.
They certainly had a reasonable increase in quality in about everything, the truth is the first 2-3 trailers shouldn’t have been shown at all - then again here we are going WELL THANK GOD IT’S NOT THAT BAD ANYMORE, EHI LOOK IT’S KINDA SORTA NICE SOMETIMES, maybe lowering the stakes to hell was not such a bad idea.
Who’s nerd enough to notice the Get in The Ring on Terry 's back at normal velocity? I know I am

The camera movement really bothers me. It’s way too smooth when it moves around.
The closeups on the faces also make it clear that their skin shader is kind of seriously plasticy looking.
Much improved over the earlier models, though Andy still looks like he should be on a PS1 FMV.
Speaking of which, the images in the first post point at the old server address and do not work. @felix ?
yeah I think that’s a discourse bug, they actually do work if you go to edit the post and correct them to point to the new server (so they were migrated successfully before I blew up the EC2 server), but all of the images that were uploaded before I switched image storage over to S3 (which happened before I moved the site itself from EC2 to digitalocean) have broken links.
so – anyone who has an issue with images appearing in an old post of yours, feel free to go in and edit the URL manually to point at selectbutton.net, and they’ll work.
it’s endearing
If this is Max Impact 3, I am legit OK with that.
Doesn’t Xrd have similarly smooth camera movement?
Yeah there’s something uncanny to it, especially since the graphics are such a downgrade from XII-XIII
Continues to be a minor videogame tragedy. Very little compelling or endearing about this to me.
Hi Angel
Tiny fighters reveal trailer. XIV Tung looks to play a lot like NGBC Tung.
Starting to like how this game looks now.

I’m kind of hoping this latest trailer sort of having an old man theme (Choi ain’t all that old, but compared to all those teens and early 20s he might still be up there) is a hint that themed edit teams with amusing endings are going to be a thing again.
