, posted Sun 24 Feb 09:06
Well, now we have word of so many games to be on the market on this 2002; arcade, PS2, and not only that, we also have movies, anime and many other incoming goodies... may be even new car desings... well, here is the question:
What is your biggest hope for this year?
Mine is Samurai Showdown 5.... Why?, well, SS games have always have superior character design and storyline; excellent ambientation and good music... only game play has fallen on these saga; well, since '99, with Garou, KoF '2000 and KoF '2001 SNK has given a certain level of balance and "perfection" to the games that shows superior game play; I mean, characters have a lots of fighting "sides" that can be aproached and there are also no useless moves on the game... so if they could capture the "Charm" of the first SS games with some of that game play the product will have to be seen.

" That's easy. Darkstalkers 4,or Vampire Solider,as the rumor at MagicBox said.
Man! I long for new Jon Talbain art! And to play as him again in a new DS game,since Capcom neglected him in the vs. series. The same goes with my 2nd favorite DS character,Demitri!
And hopefully,they'll base it in the real world again instead of that Makai world.
OH! And my other hopes are Cannon Spike 2,Street Fighter 4(Cammy,Guile and Zangief better be in it) and MOTW 2.
"
I would also like to see Darkstalkers 4, with the characters redrawn too. Street Fighter 4 would probably make it by the end of the year. I would love to see Cammy and Guile in it, I'm not to sure about Gief though. MOTW 2 is basically a given. It should come out by the end of the year too. I bet Capcom and SNK is waiting for whichever to announce they're sequel first. I also want to see a VERY good KOF 2002 this september. I actually don't want the strikers in it. A brand new style of gameplay to go with the brand new story arc. How about a new main character too. Hopefully the characters will be serious to go along with they're endings, ESPECIALLY the Kyokugenryu team. They're endings aren't serious enough. Get rid of some teams and add more villain teams so that the other good teams seem that they have a better reason to get in the KOF tournament than just to win. I think they would need more motivation. After this story, I would like the KOF to center around the Fatal Fury team and how it's coming into MOTW, and what happened to the rest of the Fatal Fury team and Blue Mary and stuff.
So far that's about it.

Let's see.
Samurai Spirits V - As much as I like the series, chances of that are little. We still don't know many aspects, like who will be the new final boss. I started to lose my dedication to playing the series by the time they introduced the 3 slash and 1 kick format. If that's the case again, don't expect much dedication from me.
A Gem Fighter sequel - Doubt it. Why? Remember the sequel rumor last year? It didn't come true. So, I gave up hope for it.
Bare Knuckle IV - Chances of it coming out are okay, but I have not heard a report from Koshiro Yuzo in a long time. The view better not be in first person mode, a la Zelda no Densetsu IV. Otherwise, I won't bother.
Phantasy Star Online 2 - That's on the bubble. Hope that it is true.
Another Vampire game - That's on the bubble also. I don't know if it will be made or what. I sure would like one.
Street Fighter IV - To be honest, I won't be thrilled at a SF IV. Why? Flash back to 1997. Not many people gave a damn about Street Fighter III, whether it was Japan or America. It took Capcom two years to finally make people know that a SFIII did exist w/ Third Strike. By then, the series had already fell flat, thanks to Double Impact. Well, that's my opinion that the series fell flat, but the thing that it took Capcom two years to finally make people know that a SFIII did exist is not.
As for it coming out, we'll have to wait for another year or two because you have to remember that Capcom is taking a year hiatus in the fighting realm. So, this would apply to the Gem Fighter sequel also if you're still hoping for it.
A Mark of the Wolves sequel - That's a given. It should be out this year. I hope Andy will be in it and I hope that he will have an outfit similar to Terry's. I expect many great things here.
The King of Fighters 2002 - I don't know if I should be excited or what that it will be out because 2001 was kind of a let down for me.
Gekka no Kenshi III - I don't think this could happen because there's not much material left to work with. Maybe have Zankuro attack villages this time. *lol* I don't think so.
My hope? I'll switch to the anime realm. I hope someone would bring translations of Gun Blaze West, though it is a bit old. I've always wanted to read that manga. I heard that it is pretty good. This might happen. If not, then next year hopefully.
Also, although this won't ever happen in reality in my eyes, I would like to see a Pretty Soldier Shinobu spinoff. *lol* I can't believe that happend. One of the funniest things to have ever happend in Love Hina if you ask me.
