It's up to you to pick the box art for King of Fighter XII photo

Ignition Entertainment is calling upon their fans to pick the cover art for The King of Fighters XII on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Each system has two choices to pick from; one featuring Kyo Kusanagi and the other featuring Iori Yagami.

Head on over to Ignition Entertainment's Forums and place your vote! No end date was given, but the game is coming out this July so the voting will probably come to a close sometime in June. 

Oddly, Terry Bogard isn't one of the main choices. He is in most of the box art pictures, but not featured like Kyo and Iori are. I feel like going all Terry Yum Goong on someone because of this.

GET SERIOUS! 

 
PREDICTABLE! TOO EASY!

We're picking which is the least shittiest here? Because those are all terrible.

yea I agree. I guess 1 and 4 are slightly above 2 and 3.... but that's not saying much.

Hamza, Terry isn't really a KoF guy, he's more of a Fatal Fury cameo, ditto Mai.
I'd probably choose the PS3 Kyo one, personally. It features more characters in the background than the Iori one, and I think Iori PS3 takes up too much space.
Also, to all those bitching about K' and Mai's absence in KoFXII, take a gander at this website. http://kofaniv.snkplaymore.co.jp/top_j.html Happy now?

I'm digging the Iori one (not the actual art, but he's so badass it doesn't matter).

Give me 4 because of Terry being more prominently displayed, but Benimaru? Get him the fuck out!

I vote for just the logo with a black background. Can't we just have that? I mean simple is good, right?

I dunno, those pictures do look convincing, but...

From the same link you provided.

I guess those renders don't necessarily mean they're in the original build. UNLESS, of course they are unlockables that they don't want to announce/update yet, or future DLC.

Also, I vote for the PS3 box-art with Kyo.

Think I'll be done for some Iori love, for my 360. He's just too cool for school.

@Kalmah: See, it also says Mai was absent in KoFXI, but she was in the console version! That's what's giving me hope for Mai and K' in the home console XII.
@Magnalon: Hey! Benimaru's a pimp! You don't fuck with people who have hair like that due to electricity.
Hamza: Didn't mean to offend. ;) Terry would be awesome prominently displayed in his classic outfit on the cover.
Also, regardless of box art: DAY ONE.

I love the look the first one has. The rest...not so much. Maybe the fourth one as well, but that's a big maybe.

Also, I love that video so much, the filming style and the voiceovers. It's even more shocking when you find out that entire movie scene took only three tries to get right.

Agreed with dip. These all kind of suck. Couldn't they have gone with something... good?

Hey fools, stop fucking posting cross-platform games under 360! It's really fucking annoying, especially since you guys almost NEVER reference what platforms a game is for in the actual post.

As to the post, first one for the win.

Well I know I'm satisfied now :D I get my gorgeous Iori on the cover, so that makes my day. Kind of shocked honestly, but it definitely puts me in a good mood.

Ugh, I hate all of these. But I guess I'll go with the extreme Iori close up.

Well Terry isn't the "star" of KoF since 94 so it makes much sense for it to be either Kyo, Iori, K, Ash, random new character in latest saga, random chick.

just sayin. I personally wouldn't mind a Kyo/Iori in the foreground with the others in the background.

Definitely the one for 360 with Iori, as he is the man.

I couldn't give two shits about the PS3 one...

Yea, like TheCleaningGuy said, Terry is the star of Fatal Fury, not KOF (but I wish he was, because I'm Terry-biased). SNK, why not just use the original boxart and call it a day?

What sucks about this game is: no Rock Howard. If they really want a different domestic cover, they should bring Geese back from the dead and have him/Rock on the cover, with Rock doing his signature "powerup hand raise". Oh wait that sort of sounds sorta like the [url=http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/snk/images/thumb/6/61/Garou.jpg/180px-Garou.jpg]Garou[/ur] cover.

They're running out of incredibly cool characters for boxart!
