since i am a huge fan i was wondering if its worth getting this game, cause there is no point getting it if nobody's online to play against.

Haven't played it myself, although I've heard it's not too good. SunAndSteel can answer this one for sure if he pops by

Sadly I'd have to say no on both counts. If you can pick up KOF12 for a tenner or less then it's not too bad, it just pales in comparison to other games in the series. The characters and stages look stunning but the rest of the games presentation is very poor. Some characters are left pretty under-developed as well, Clark, Elisabeth and Mature only have like 3 moves or something silly. And even if there are people still playing online ( which I doubt ) the netcode was terrible.

94's very limited, some very strange inputs for some special moves as well, it hasn't aged as well as Street Fighter 2 Super Turbo.

If you've got a backward compatible PS3 then you could try and hunt for KOF 2000, 2002 or XI, those games are solid entries in the series.  XIII is a much improved game, should be coming out in OCtober, I'll defo be importing that.

No worries. There's been no announcement of a European release yet, but thanks to the wonders of region-free you should be able to get an American copy then if you're as desperate as I am.
