The New Challenger

30 10 2007

tnc.jpgWow, this is one big production. A massive collaboration across many, many online KOF communities all over the world. Let’s see, the main project director group would be Ultracombos, with groups such as Art of Fighting Database, Akumacombos (the one I’m representing), Battlepage, Cyberfanatix, Endless Fight, KOF Destiny, KOF BR Team, KOF Furious, KOFDOM, KOFHITS2002, Phoenix Force, RobKOF, SFTeam, Y-AV and other individuals. Can’t seem to find the website links for KOF-Destiny and Phoenix Force. Ah well.

I vaguely recall the time when they were asking for people to join in this major international project. Yes, it’s international because there’s people from Brazil, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Middle East (if I’m not mistaken), Korea, Singapore (only me lah) and probably some other countries I missed out ‘cos I don’t know every single participant in the video. It was quite a few months back, so even the latest, nicer combos back then would have become less than impressive right now. But it doesn’t matter, there’s still quality combos in there.

The editing’s pretty nice at parts. Personally I found the “intermission” style quite interesting, though some people might find it time-wasting. Certain recordings of combo are quite obviously already compressed prior to the actual editing; “veteran” viewers like me surely can tell the difference. Heh. Anyway, the overall feel is also quite good, though I was looking out for what kind of combos the other famous KOFers submitted for this major project. Turns out there are quite a few nice ones, maybe I’ll try to experiment and imitate when I do have the spare time (erm well… hehe). Many games were showcased, not just KOF, though the focus is still on SNK games lah. After all, most of the communities that participated specialise in KOF/SNK games.

Clearly, the 1 combo I submitted isn’t very impressive, but it’s still presentable, lol. Just part of me trying to be thick-skinned and represent the community (and maybe the country? lol. yah right.). Hahaha. Anyway, I’ve long given up trying to join the ranks of many of the participants of the video, so now I’m just making combos to my best abilities and enjoying the process of doing so. Doesn’t matter if most of them are some sort of imitations. Haha.
