    Agree its what i do, there is paid web site with HD quality covers for games, even with many custom that people make..

    I print it on photo paper with photo ink and it looks much better then original, it looks like actual photo..

    dammit. Seriously I was already thinking that since it came down to Iori or Kyo and they were teasing one or the other that they should copy Fight Night Round 4 and MAdden and have them share the cover.


    Both characters are badass, but really the japanese 360 cover just looks better to me.


    I really hope someone is nice enough to upload the Japanese covers so they can be downloaded and printed on glossy photo paper maybe even SNK could provide official covers on their site?


    I can dream right?

    I won't import them, but if someone scans 'em at high res and uploads 'em, I'll make them available and I'll modify the 360 version to use PS3's art and vise versa.

    @Greenstuff-Alex:


    People always throw around the dpad comment, and while yes, the dpad on the 360 controller sucks, usually the analog is better than the PS3's dpad when it comes to precision. Atleast I never have problems pulling off moves with the analog when i need to. Cant say the same for the PS3's controls though as i cant stand the triangles, they hurt my fingers.(Im a multiplat owner, and think the PS3 controller isnt so bad, but its certianly not great)


    I feel that people throw around the dpad comments without even really trying arcade sticks or trying to accept using the analog. Arcade sticks are nice, but have a high learning curve for those who didnt grow up with them.(not me, I have a nice set of them for both consoles for when ive got guests)

    @RuneX21: The PlayStation D-buttons have always been terrible. It's only become the preferred method this current and past generation due to how abysmal Microsoft and Nintendo's D-pad are/were. The analog stick works fine (and better than any D-button control method), but it still provides less than ideal control even by stock controller standards.

    @dipsetboy17: Owning the Japanese PS1 versions of KoF '95 and '98, I can almost assure you there will be no difference as far as menus and accessibility; KoF games' menus are always fully English.


    I'm hoping that online play isn't region locked.
