First. Can you be more specific?.

If you are asking about the "Game Over" message at the end of the Arcade Mode (when you finish it).

SNK games always have that, each KOF has it.
It's a custom...? tradition?

Not
Mortal kombat - arcade
Primal rage - arcade
tekken
dead or alive
super smash bros

Yea...When arcade mode ends without me losing a match i get the game over message...normally this is a bad thing in games
Strange that kof13 does this and not the other games i'v played

While i dont play soul caliber.A friend beat it and said they didnt get a game over screen aswell

Arcade mode is extremely short

Not sure if i have to do every path in story mode to make it longer or what?

Arcade mode is exactly that, arcade mode. When you win, you get a congratulations and then you get a game over...because your game is over. Whoop de doo. Why are you thinking so hard about it?

Because if there was a way to unlock/expand arcade mode for more cut scenes/unlockables i want to know how to do them
Read on one of the forums you need a story mode team and get a high rank for good ending

K alright.This is suppost to happen

No...After doing arcade mode for about the 7th time i got a message at the end of one of my battles"A new challenger has appeared" Then i fought Ash Crimson in a 3vs1.Beat that guy and fought another random 3vs3 then game over again

incorrect. i know for a fact these do this. even the console versions of the first two.

however, even if you were right, your small list is a drop in the water (and starts quite late in time) compared to all arcade games made.

it's not "you lose". it's "game over". as in, even though you won, you'll have to insert more credits to play again.

Game over means i'v reached the end of the game
Game over does not mean i'v failed

I understand this now
Before i thought i'v failed when the game over message appeared

Like i said...In 1vs1/4vs4 fighters i never saw the message game over unless i died

I'v double checked youtube...Both primal rage and mk DO have victory screens.After primal rage's victory screen you get game over

You need to reach a certain score I believe.

There actually IS a way of not getting game over screen, i think you've gotta play with the hero team, or winner team, or something like that - im not sure - i think it might be elizabeth team, and then once you get that ending, you get a congratulations screen with all the characters in it, instead of a black empty 'gameover' screen.

This is how it works: each KoF Game has a winner team, thus only the winner team can officially win the KoF tournament in each game's timeline, all of the other endings from the other teams are canon/spin-off, thus the game over screen :)

You can only get "congratulations!" screen by playing with the official winner team of the tournament

Like I said, all the other endings are canon/spin-off

I had completed Arcade Mode with each Team, and a Game Over Screen always appear right before a Congratulatioms screen.

The Congratulations screen always appear before the Game Over screen. No matter which team you play.
