The only good thing that could come out of a new KI game, would be more Orchid and Maya cosplayers.

The OST disc that came with the SNES version was awesome.

Oh ki 2 definately wasn't. Ki 1 was undeniably at hit.

Okay, remember people, this will NOT BE A REBOOT or a sequel. If it's anything, it will simply be a HD port of KI or 2.
The news first broke that Microsoft was doing SOMETHING with the franchise on their official news site for XBLA stuff last year.

Yeah, I'm surprised by this
I would prefer to see KI1 on XBLA rather than KI3, unless MS actually has a solid dev team behind the new game.
The problem with KI is that most people never properly learned how to play it, so they think it was a bad game. In high-level KI matches, you didn't see combos that were over 7 hits (for the most part), unless it was an Ultra at the end of a match. It was very footsies heavy and you only saw short, unbreakable combos.

I love this franchise.
Fulgore, Glacius, Riptor, Spinal, and Sabrewolf were all my favorites.
Sabrewolf was insanely good. I could destroy people with him so fast.
I remember being so pissed they dropped Riptor in the sequel. Fuck KI Gold.

I don't have that problem - I thought the game was great whilst also being completely unable to master it (oh, how those combos eluded me). But I'd like to have another shot at them with an HD remaster
Still have that CD. :-D

As long as they learn from past mistakes with the game while implementing new and interesting features, I'm all for it. Do it.
KI2 came out in 1996. Can't kill what is already dead.

Why didn't they just call it Kinect Instinct. Get it? KINECT! HA!

Prove me wrong Microsoft. Just make a good Killer Instinct, and my wallet is yours.

idk look at how bad MK9 and SF4 are
KI2 was ok, KI1 was fucking horseshit though who the fuck making a fighting game with no throws?

I'd be happy even if it's just an HD remake like Perfect Dark.
Also note that the official XBLA blog posted an article about the trademark renewal...

Shit shit shit! I don't want to buy another MS console but I'll have to when this hits.
Because anyone with the talent to make a competent fighting game left Rare a long time ago?
I will buy a fucking 720 just for KI3....IF
-It has NOTHING to do with Kinect
-Somehow MS can round up at least some people from the original KI team to work on it
-They put in some type of parry system, but not the horrible one from KI2.
-Bring back Cinder and put in Eagle
-DO NOT bring back Kim Wu or Maya *shudder*
thx MS my monies are waiting

this is probs one of the 4 ips that are rumored for durango to microsoft it is new. and MS did create some huge ass team recently who is working on two unknown games
Am I the only one that thought KI had some of the coolest looking characters?
Chief thunder has always been a personal fav:
and let's not forget:
hey, it's TressFX!
Perfect Dark Zero says "Hi, remember me?"
Hmm... if this Chris Tilston guy is behind a new KI game THEN I'd be somewhat excited.
Here's why:
Yup. The same here. Have anyone played the originals lately?? Those games are just BAD.

I have, they're great. The arcade versions anyway.
Before KI1 was released, i would imagine.

Of all the Rare franchises that could be revived, this is one of the few I couldn't care less about.
...a new game could certainly pique my interest based on its own merits, though. And if it's the gateway to future Rare revivals, then bring it the hell on.

A new, TRUE sequel to Perfect Dark would make me buy an Xbox 720 day 0 and as of right now, I have no other reason to.
THis should've been the first post. Can't believe it took 37 replies!

I just mean - you're Microsoft, you have X number of development teams, one of the last genres you should task one of your limited number of teams with is the fighting genre. You won't expand your audience, you won't create a Halo-like runaway success... it's a waste.
If you're Reverge Labs, then knock yourself out by all means.

I've played a ton of fighting games, and KI2 was one of the better ones. It's about on par with MK9.

Killer Instinct wasn't the best fighting game ever, but it's definitely not as bad as some people are making it out here.
I remember having lots of fun with it back in 1995 on my SNES.

They've got no one of any worth to make this... Should just hand the license to an actual fighting game developer. KI with SNK sprites would have me!

MK9 is bad? Everyone i know loves the game and has a blast with it, esp. with the story mode. IMO the game is worth it just for the story and that ladder challenge mode.
Dont let the tournament crowd make you think a game isnt good to everyone else.

Looks like Janet Jackson.
This thread reminds me of how underused RARE is in Microsoft's hands.
They reboot KI and turn it into a 4 player brawler.
