Mai's abscence
I don't actually get it&mdash;Mai being angry at Terry for not telling her where Andy's whereabouts is just inexcusable. I don't know why would Mai get so angry at Terry just because Terry chose to cover his brother up. Can't Mai Shiranui at least give Andy a break? Mai's excessive obsession with Andy is getting to the point where her emotions might one day consume her... &mdash; Dark Insanity 05:04, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Dark, you speak of the Andy/Mai thing as if it's not fantasy. It's just a game compadre. Panda

true but what happened to Andy, I was a master with Andy, why he is never in king of fighters any more

The KoF page says Mai is out of it because they didn't have time. WTF is all this "oh she's angry".

Eiji isn't present since KOF 2000, and 2002 not the 95 version!
The said in the text is wrongly informed. Eiji has its appearence in KOF2000 as a secret striker. It should be informed, since it reads he doesn't appear since the 95 edition - I know he's not entirelly playable, but it's still badly infomed.

Eiji appears next to billy kane in the 2002 KOF when battling Iori


 * Secret strikers don't count as playable characters, I think. And please sign. I Am Magnus  talk  23:59, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Sammy developed this game?
And SNK Playmore only published it? I didn't know that. Is that true? Seems false...

Never heard of such a thing. Probably some Arrogant GG fanboy.
 * Yeah, that's pretty much bull. They used the Atomiswave arcade board, which is the same arcade system used for Guilty Gear XX and onward, as opposed to the old Neo-Geo, but it was SNK Playmore that actually developed the game. Besides, all this association between Sammy and Guilty Gear is erroneous, since Arc developed all the games and Sammy isn't even their publisher anymore. Why is it that the most militant fans are also the most ill-informed? Digital Watches 02:30, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

WP:NPOV
The section The Story of The King of Fighters XI reads as follows (comments in brackets) :

Mukai, a member of a mysterious group, stole the Orochi seal. Taking advantage of all the confusion caused by it, Ash stole the powerful mirror. Everybody assumed Chizuru’s defeat, and that’s how, in between everything, he pulled the curtains down on the last King of Fighters. Time passes and everything seems to be okay in the world. However, and quite predictably, there will be a KOF Tournament. In the advent of the new tournament, new faces are handed invitations, while old faces, such as Eiji Kisaragi, return to the ring. Among the new KoF participants are Oswald, Duck King - a South Town veteran fighter himself, Momoko, and Elisabeth.. All thes fighters will find themselves in a tournament full of mysteries and secrets started by motives that they’d ignored and still participate. KOF is just about to start. (what's that sentence good for?) Behind this healthy competitive tournament hides a hidden face. Besides that, this hidden face has a lot of mixed objectives. The group that calls themselves “Past Coming people”(Literal translation). What do they really plan to do? (what kind of question is this? sounds like "play it and find out" to me…) Where would Orochi’s force finally land once the seal is finally open? (same kind of question again) Chizuru and friends lost, but would they still be able to seal Orochi? (and again) What’s Ash Crimson true plan? (…) May The King of Fighters XI begin... (advertising!)

Now tell me that's not advertising. --elias.hc 16:09, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Sounds to me like it was taken directly from an arcade flyer, press release, or sell sheet. The S 19:59, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * or just some hyperactive GameFAQ fanboy, but yeah, this entire article is pretty terrible. I'd suggest marking it for cleanup, not pov. --Nugneant 21:14, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Release Dates
Shouldn't this page list the games release dates for all the regions its going to be in? BassxForte 23:53, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It should also be changed to reflect the US release, which I did. 66.193.64.161 —Preceding comment was added at 18:39, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

I believe the release date for the US has changed from 10/23/07 to 11/3/07 according to GameStop.66.76.114.175 15:31, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

in gamestop it says that its been shopped yesterday here http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=281818

Vandalism
Whoa, someone with a lot of free time in his hands really messed up this article. From the December 24 release date, to the Yamada thing and the revamping of teams and the 20-something new chars. Someone needs to revert this inmediately. EDIT: Whoa, that's odd, it was all magically reverted as I finished putting this comment in the page. Nevermind, and thanks to whoever fixed it. Vicius 01:40, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Looks like some jerk messed up this article again. Someone fix it please.

Vandalism Returns (11/18/07)
Someone really vandalized the article again. Someone really needs to fix this.

Why isn't there any "Reception" section in the article?
The game got fairly positive reviews including GameSpot and IGN both giving it 8.0 out of 10. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.190.213.13 (talk) 01:29, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Tizoc misnamed
Is it worth noting that Tizoc is erroneously labelled 'Mai' in the PS2 release? 193.132.145.151 (talk) 09:45, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned references in The King of Fighters XI
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The King of Fighters XI's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "slam": From Mickie James:  From Randy Orton:  From Kane (wrestler):  From Beth Phoenix:  From John Cena:  From Cody Rhodes:  From Jeff Hardy:  From Triple H: </li> <li>From Shawn Michaels: </li> </ul>

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 09:14, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Homebrew Dreamcast Port

Pretty sure this is information that could be added

Not sure why people keep saying the source is untrustworthy since its the place the port itself got posted — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.96.154.139 (talk) 16:51, 7 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Forums don't count as reliable sources and through that last edit the mention of the PSN port was removed for some reason.Tintor2 (talk) 17:45, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Let's wait for a couple of days or a week even. There are indeed website that still cover the Dreamcast from time to time in terms of the homebrew scene so, they might mention the homebrew Dreamcast port and i'll try to add them as soon as possible!

 * Didn't know the forum was official. My bad. Then again, I guess this means we'll have more reviews to cover.Tintor2 (talk) 21:10, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, the forum is fan-made so, let's wait until some outlets pick up the story and then add it into the article... Roberth Martinez (talk) 22:25, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
